I need my daily dose of linux. However, what will happen when it comes to them paying the copyright owners? Do we need a subscription? AWESOME! Our payment information on a site that actually has been prosecuted.

Taking Dean Cain's credibility and slapping it on a fucking terribad browser. Probelms off the release "featured" inability to use many office based programs, and ones that did some form of opening another page, and then interacting information with the previous window were disallowed by a feature called XSS. Turning XSS off was a pain in the ass. It was slower than Firefox 3 was on beta. Also many web designers (Especially ones who used dynamic php based websites) were pissed off to see that unless your site was static and strait flash or html, it was considered an "old" design. Compatability mode solved this, however why should a website done on the Web 2.0 platform be labelled as "designed for older browsers" and the old style HTML based pages are considered new? I know one site that runs from ASP, and that one was also messed up withou comptability mode, which is ironic because ASP is a microsoft based website technology. PHP is actually the new style of doing things. Internet Explorer 6 processes dynamic php sites the same way 8 does without compatability mode on. Microsoft needs to stop building from the ground up, and instead build from what worked best. 7 wasn't great, but it was pretty alright.

 I reallly laughed when I saw this. Honestly, whoever thinks they are buying a Notebook when in stores like Best Buy it is labelled as a Netbook, really doesn't know what they're buying. If the consumer is looking for a specific funtionality but looking at cheap products will ask what one meets their needs, and if they don't they will return it and complain, then getting their answer. Open Office, Microsoft Office, Thunderbird, Messenger clients, Web browsing, these are the tasks a Netbook is for. Basically being more mobile while doing basic tasks. I'm going to school soon and honestly, for the skytrain and bus rides, I am going to just grab an Android phone since i need a new phone anyhow. I was considering buying a netbook and tethering my Android phone to it for internet functionality, so I could read MPC while waiting. However I am the kind of person that feels that whoever has the most gadgets when they die wins.

This looks like the HTC magic...which has been in canada since June 2nd, when the google phone released here.

Correction, i think this IS the Magic. It's a decent phone, i know someone who has one of these, and someone else with the Dream. They're both decent. The chin on the Dream makes texting kinda awkward. The on screen keyboard is pretty good on the Magic though.

Well only people who paid a lot of attention to the advertisements, maybe too much. On first look, and the look of someone who is actually interested, the advertisement looked fine. I didn't even notice the missing fingers for 2 reasons. The thumb was always missing, it was the thing about Left 4 Dead, the zombie on the poster had a missing thumb. And as for the two fingers, to me they look bent, they're way too well healed and clean looking to be on a zombie, more like someone who already lost is fingers, then was zombified by losing his thumb. ESRB can really just look at a poster or game box as a firstglance thing, because in todays world, i'm willing to bet 90% of the people who saw this article didn't read it fully, but glance and pick up on key points. Most people who look at that box would look and see, 2 upright fingers, 2 folded fingers and a missing thumb.

I will start with children, calling them names, and searching their emails for Starcraft 2 beta keys. If i get any resistance, laying down the pain will be in order.

 Kidding, could really go for one of these though.

 Can you say "Expansion Pack?" This is all this looks like to me. Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne, Call of Duty United Offensive, Crysis Warhead...all expansion packs, all of which were about the standard game price, all of which sold well. Some added content, some extra materials, some new maps, and BAM there's marketing ability for a "whole new experience" Same product, with some minor tweaks. CS:S and CS 1.6 was not a comparable situation because they are two totally different engines, and therein control differently. Same game idea, re-done, which deserved a whole new game title, and to be separate from 1.6. I will be buying the new L4D content, because i liked the original (beta as it's bein referred to) and since i got it as a gift, to me i won't be buying it again, but the first time. However i would buy L4D2 if i already bought L4D on my own. People...relax, Valve does this as much as any other game creator does. Do you think Half Life 2's episodes were worth as much as they cost when they came out'? Hell no, both of those episodes left me pissed off at the end, with a desire to stab someone in the face for ripping me off, i demanded vengeance on the short time spent playing (around 2 strait hours, mayb a bit more) and the lack of closure, or at least a partial closure point, sure the combine are done for, but now...the ones on earth are fighting for their place in the world. They had to pay their employees somehow though i guess.

Actually, a no-cd crack will disable the key check...so online will most likely not work.

I heard this was a decent game, it just didn't catch, i never had the chance to play, they didn't have any trials available when i was looking for them. Sony did kind of flop this game from what i hear. It went the way of Star Wars Galaxies. I would like to see the end game event though.

Better multiplayer, maybe online Co-Op? And make it a little more broad to run. F.E.A.R. at least did that instead of all out destroying every machine unless it was on low. Broad spectrum, like FEAR and CoD(i know cod isn't intensive, but it's a broad range of pc components to run it, from 6800 with 512mb ram and 2.0 single core, which looks terribad, and upwards, being recommended for a dual 2.4 and 1gb ram with a 7800 and up.)
