Does anyone seriously agree w/this "deathkitten??"Because I'd call that an award-winning level stupid idea.  That B.S. is why there's DRM to begin with.  You do this, and EA can say " ...

How can we continue to let the US Constitution go without this clause??  Look what happened to "Scooter" Libbey.(No, the 2nd Amendment doesn't count.) If he did it after being told of " ...

Of course PC games don't need huge specs.  Software vendors tend to aggrevate the the problems, by setting "minimum specs," that result in a pretty poor game experience --just so they will ...

I can't wait to hear what EA's solution for the "critical situation," is... To my mind, particularly with console titles:  Somebody bought it new, EA got paid.  I've never understood why t ...

So.  What if I just prefer not to be constantly running an extra MS app, 100% of the time on my legally licensed copy?  I've already been leveraged into turning "automatic updates," on, be ...

It's good to see what's a step or three beyond the best of the best, come together.What's the deal with the 2.1 sound though?   Seems a bit like saying "let's just go with the on-board audio,&q ...

Sales taxes are taxes on commerce, for which they don't want to raise commercial property or income taxes, because It'd have to be a massive hike, to make up the governments' revenue.  Large employer ...

The ISPs would clearly like to charge exponentially, for high use.  The only reason I can think of, for not using a linear mathematical model, is that it might mean that the odd month of zero use cos ...

So... Tipper Gore says that video games are like porn. I hear some Pentecostals think music is evil.The movie & video game industries think Torrents are evil.Conservative Moslems think no one but ...

Their list is silly enough.  I don't think Windows users need a list.Since when is a Macintosh not a Personal Computer?  I guess Macs have been Christened the Impersonal Computer, and I missed the a ...

So, if you're on-line for 20 minutes, because you can't find something on eBay, your computer's OEM, Amazon, a US Government webpage, the MS knowledgebase, etc... this is heavy use?????Holy crap!!  W ...

Congratulations on the first 10 years, and on 12 years of Kick-ass-itude.For me, the review I'll never for get was: a Sony desktop computer that was supposed to free up more desk space for the custome ...

The first Tribes game with a single player campaign --come on, man!  Of course, I don't have broadband, so I never had the expectation of an on-line use at all.  If that's the worst game you've shel ...

It works kinda like a 1-way mirror, except that it looks like rainbow fish-scales, and the light really shines out the edges of the "scales."  From the outside, its a fish-scale mirror.  T ...

Maybe I've got it wrong, or over-simplifying ---I thought State Sales taxes were justified by the idea "you are using the state's infrastructure [roads, etc.] to sell the item..."I thought t ...

It was a bit odd, seeing the same machines month after month... but I guess you had to have enough to fill the brackets.  If there had been more new ones, you could have changed the entry rules...I g ...

There are a lot of parallels, to me though, between software anti-piracy and DRM for mp3s.  The people being harmed find a ballpark figure & go ballistic  ---perhaps rightfully so.  But show a ...

I've never been sure just how much of Apple's stuff being over-priced is the high level control they have over functionality and compatibility.   ---How much is just them doing the Nintendo thing, li ...

They always leave you with more questions than answers. Like: How do they know if their "addicts" are not just people who are addicted to work, and NY just happens to have a higher concentr ...

I would like to see AMD/ATI back on the cutting edge, too.  If there were actually some useful optimizations in BTX, they probably should find a way to bring it back --under a new spec.The way the co ...

This is hilarious to me.  Right on, legal system.  I thought Republicans were generally supposed to be opposed to this kind of over-legistlation --clearly I was wrong.It's painfully sad, too --becau ...

Is it just me?   Or is "we found that Asus' hardware, and all other components from the different sponsors of AOCC, were exceptionally stable and top-notch in terms of quality."  not ki ...

Hmmm, I spent all day, waiting for the "just stop your whining, and fix the problem with piles of cash...." Guys to post.I was looking forward to hearing about how we should all just keep ou ...

Do you live with your parents, billing some giant litigous corporation hundreds of thousands a year, or more than one of those???When the news says "gase prices hit a new record high," are y ...

It also automatically cuts down individual customer's usage, so their network service seems faster and better, over all.  This concept is kind of a personal issue for me.  They really do prefer to h ...
