    Who Wants SteamOS?

    Yeah... I don't get all the thumbs down here. The only thing holding most computer literate folks from going to 100% linux is gaming, which still pretty much necessitates Windows. If Valve can indeed provide a viable gaming OS, I think it will make a noticeable dent in Windows market share -...

    Who Wants SteamOS?

    If they ever get this to where it can run all my PC games, it's bye bye Windows for me. Please Valve, make it so! The problem is that they've not managed to convince many AAA devs to make games for linux :(

    LG Reveals New Lineup of OLED, Ultra HD TVs

    4k doesn't have to be super expensive to produce... several models like the seiki 39" available under $1k. It all depends on the panel type. Cheap 4k screens worth buying will be here as soon as hdmi 2.0 is implemented.

    4 Reasons Not to Get a 4K TV — Yet (Archive)

    4k won't be worth it for TV for like 10 years. But for PC gaming on the other hand....... as soon as they get a 4k 60Hz screen out for a decent price, I'm buying one.

    Rumor: Blu-ray Licensing May Delay Next Xbox

    Highly anticipated console? Really? With all the horrid rumors circulating making this thing sound like a giant DRM Brick, I don't think it's that anticipated at all. I enjoyed my Xbox and my 360 but I don't know that I'll pick this next one up, blu-ray or no.

    Go Daddy Sees Record Sales Day After Weird Super Bowl Ad

    Also, I don't dislike that commercial because I'm a prude, I dislike that commercial because I find it offensive that, instead of actually selling their product, they make a blatant attention whore commercial designed to offend and spark conversation. I don't respect advertisements that don't...

    Go Daddy Sees Record Sales Day After Weird Super Bowl Ad

    bobusboy@bigmack70I'd be more concerned about boycotting them because of that SOPA crap. That junk is still around? I thought it had died the horrible death it deserves long ago. Didn't realize GoDaddy supported it... yeah I'd say that's a bigger reason. Anyone in support of SOPA and other...

    20% of Consumers See Online TV as Pay TV Replacement

    bak0nOnly way I'll pay for TV service is if they let me pick and choose the stations I want and pay for just those. Otherwise I'll get exactly what I want online for nearly free. IMO this is the biggest problem with cable TV. I'm not a TV drone... I don't just sit there and watch TV for hours...

    20% of Consumers See Online TV as Pay TV Replacement

    I doubt I'll ever pay for TV again. My wife and I prefer watching things on Netflix, and it has plenty of stuff for the kids too. The only thing I like to watch on TV is sports, and I can just go to a bar or to a friend's place to catch a game.

Sure it'll drop in value more and more as gold inflates in game. but as Sliem mentioned, the same 20mil item will cost 200mil by that time. Like any other game (FFXI comes to mind), every item has...
