I have a $99 touchpad. I don't need that RIM junk... Actually, I know some blackberry users that might get a lot more 'play' out of it than I would...

I've been very happy with a 47" LG LED I bought eighteen months ago. I got it half off through an open box sale -- with a Samsung Blu Ray player for free. S-IPS screen, LED local dimming, and some extensive control settings make the TV an even better value. I walked out of the store with a car...

Thanks for this. I can't help but blame Sony a little, even if it may be extraordinary circumstances -- and I while I own a PS3, I basically only use it to stream Netflix and play PS1 games. Good thing too -- I don't think its going to be back to normal now. You'd figure if this was some...

You are correct. After reading this article, I think I was premature in my assessment. I hope these hacks are embraced by both MS and developers as a source of inspiration in current and future endeavors. The current industry is a little stale, but these inventive creations might be the breath...

I first thought that the Kinnect was impressive, but not very useful to actual gaming. I may have been wrong.

Sony, I'm getting tired of updating my PS3's firmware. Either stop the mods or roll with it. Possibly you could just let me use Netflix with out of date firmware. I know that your crusade against firmware hacks is only serving to irritate me, someone who wouldn't chop up their firmware...

The Department of Justice wants the ability to track cellphone users' locations without a warrant, and now the President wants to give me an Internet ID card? On the premise that the Commerce department would use the information in a responsible way? I'd much rather have the Bush Warrantless...

Congrats, it doesn't look terrible. It could be a Belgian keyboard, or embedded with broken glass. But it isn't. Nice.

That is a brilliant idea, actually. Enraging the piss out of your customers just to get higher rankings... how cool is that? I know it's not the nicest idea, but from a pure original idea standpoint it is golden.

I hope the EU explodes. Microsoft has to compete with Mac and a free operating system. Intel can do what ever the hell it wants, because it makes the products that the EU uses to type up it anti trust allegations. Google may not be the angel it pretends to be, but I hope to hell the EU ends...

I hope it's about Titan. If its just a press release about how NASA found a "Space Marine" game that was totally original... I'd have a hard time believing that one.

There is nothing going on here other than a naked European working on his whip. Clearly, all of the trim pieces from the trunk are neatly placed over to the left. The things people will go through to get that "tick tick" followed by that "thump". He busted out Digital Underground's "Sex...

I got excited until I realized that, in fact, nothing is going on here, other than a naked European working on the trunk of his car. The trim and side panels of the "boot" are in the pile on the left. The things people will go through to get that "tick-tick" followed by that "thump".

Yes I can. Why anyone would want to is another matter. Yay progress.

AlexTheBlueSega's blast processing was real. It was a software technique, not a miracle. Just because it isn't what you thought it was, doesn't mean it isn't real. Alex, you are absolutely right. I didn't mean to be as critical as I sounded. The world is a better place because of Sony...
