Of the over 120 channels my wife and I currently get there are exactly 4 that I watch (5 if I'm in the mood to watch "Pimp my Ride" on MTV): Cartoon Network HBO Comedy Central and Fox (for the Simpsons and nothing else...well, House is pretty damn good, so for that too, on the extremely rare occasion I get to). Considering we pay about $60/month for 120 channels, that means my bill could effectively drop to $2/month...which means more money to blow on modding my rig, yay! (of course, I'm certain they'd find an excuse to charge more than that)
FISA Taken Out Behind Shed, Shot

Everyone say it together now: What.The.F***!!! First we somehow allow that chimp (Bush) to claim an office the majority of the voters in this country didn't want him in (fool us once, shame on you...), then we opt to keep him in that office for another four years (fool us twice, shame on US!), now we're giving him unrestrained access to go poking his pervy chimp nose into our rigs and how we may or may not actually use them??!? Once again now: WHAT. THE. F***??!?!? Seems to me the chimp probably hired the terrorists to do what they did to those buildings to provide him with an excuse to continue his father's war. Bad chimp! BAD! Chimp needs a public spanking!!! (I mean that literally, not figuratively...) Now, as to the comments left by 'dcrail' (third entry after article) who quite rudely tells the article's author, "...In other words post your political rants (liberal, conservative, or otherwise) elsewhere," I say this: Piss off, man (or chick, as the case may be)! The editors and writers at MaximumPC work damn hard to bring all of us the latest, freshly pared info that may have even the slightest impact on our rigs and our lives as self-professed power users (perhaps you didn't notice the part about the back doors our ISP's could be forced to create by our own government under the direction of that scat masticating chimp in the White House). This web site is their domain, their home, and one thing you never do is come into another man's home and start telling him what to do. That's f-ing rude, man. So piss off. Piss right the hell off and when you're done, do it again. To the editors and authors: please keep it all ooming: tech info, poli-tech info, and whatever else you guys think is worth mentioning to us, your readers! And thanx! To many other readers who've posted responses: There are some excellent and some craptastic arguments on both sides of the issue 'If it was so, it might be, and if it were so, it would be. But as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic.' --Tweedledee and Tweedledum (probably paraphrased)
Digital Maximum PC? It's About Time

Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby! This rules! I only just started reading MaximumPC with the August 2007 issue (after eye-humping every page of the MaximumPC Guide to Building a Dream PC—cover to cover—I absolutely HAD to sample the luscious pleasure district known as MaximumPC magazine), so the fact that I'll be able to feed the knowledge beast within with all the great info I missed out on prior to 8/07 is this fledgling Power-User's wettest dream...next to finally being able to sleep with my wife again, but that's for another post on another day... If it was so, it might be, and if it were so, it would be. But as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic. --Tweedledee and Tweedledum (possibly paraphrased)
