Oh, you meant "old school" games. NOT "old" "school" games. I was going to vote for dodge ball and my personal favorite, "see who can run into the girls yard the furthest without getting busted by the teachers or tripped by a bunch of girls". I miss "Crush, Crumble, and Chomp", "GridRunner"...

That's because Windoze people aren't worried about their computer manuf. going out of business any time soon either ;) To Apple fans, a profit means "live to fight another day", to Wintel fans, a profit means "2nd quarter, what's a quarter, and what does r.e.v.e.n.u.e mean?" Sorry, had to put...

Well by then Mot wasen't having problems developing, they had the 88000 line, it's just that they had already missed the boat and all the major manufacturers had already aligned themselves with other RISC platforms. I kinda like the ring of G64, though that does leave the problem with what...

Actually I'm using a Netgear WAP to talk to my Pismo, no problem getting things setup (well except for some issues with wep and getting my somewhat complex network (three routers, 1 wap) properly configured. I mentioned this because one Mac thing that really has me hacked off still is the...

Not earth shattering, but it did beat "analysts expectations" (gotta love them analysts :rolleyes:) and it's not a loss. http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2003/apr/16earnings.html

I vehemently disagree. My wifes dad worked three jobs (I know and he had to walk 20 miles through the snow up hill in the dark yadda) to put his 5 kids through school (3 Harvard, 1 Berkeley, 1 USC). And I'm not talking 3 posts on the boards of companies, I'm talking 2nd generation Mexican...

Why don't you describe your network configuration a bit more. I assume you have the cable modem attached to the wan port of the router. Then your two computers are connected to two of the 4 available other ports right? Does your xp box access the internet ok? On the mac you should only have...

I think I see what you're talking about. A face with it's mouth wide open in the upper middle of the picture and a claw sticking out from it going to the left lower in the picture. That being said though, I see several other things just by looking at other parts of the pic. This is similar...

Frankly I don't know of any public schools that teach creationism. I'm sure they're out there, but I would bet that they are a small percentage. But even if they did, I fail to see how this has anything to do with anything. My wife and I are looking at private schools for our kids. The...

Well some agree and some disagree. I have no problem with either side as long as their arguments are "reasonable". It's just that sometimes people have a tendency to start to "stray" and their arguments start losing touch with reality. Well we do get a fair amount of history about things...

Thank you toast for throwing a little reasoning into all this. What's so funny is that many who might consider themselves enlightened (and those who "fall" for Bush's rhetoric unenlightened) will read things like this, take their tenuous conclusions and then propagate them. Just because some...

So do you have any transcripts to support this statement? "We're doing this for the good of those people" who cares if they want it"? Well, that paraphrase would be completely wrong, as far as Bush goes anyway. He says "We're doing this for the good of those people, who cares if the UN...

The pressure of impending war. Iraq didn't really start to make an effort to comply until after the sword of war was dangled over their infidel heads (sorry, was just at the iraqi information minister site). But my point was that you can't look at any one single thing. It's the context of...

This is one point that has bugged me for a while. Was there a corporate takeover by the al Qaida of all other terrorist organizations? I realize that they are obviously front and center in the minds of most people, and Bush himself would like for you to think of them first when he says...

Well policing is a much tougher task than "warring". Given an enforcement role, esp. when not all of the fighting is over becomes a trickier political situation. If an Iraqi civilian is running with a small tv in their hands and a US soldier tells him to stop, what is the soldier to do if he...

I think you're getting Microsoft and Intel confused. Centrino is an Intel product and it differentiates itself from anything that Apple has in that the wireless support is built into the cpu itself, not just a part of the notebook. Also, it's not like Apple invented video editing software or...

Mine, sorta ordered, though not strictly: A Clockwork Orange Blade Runner Birdy Pulp Fiction Ninth Configuration Alien Seventh Seal M Jacobs Ladder Lawrence Of Arabia Dead Alive The Fly (remake) BTW, I think it's important to point out the difference in ones "favorite movies"...

Well one because the US was the driving force (both literally and figuratively) in the war, so two, they have more of a vested interest in making sure that the PR war is also won. I would assume the troops provided the flags and yes, in many ways it is contrived. But unless you think the...

You've intertwined two different issues. US personel displaying the US flag and Iraqis displaying the US flag. I assume that troops are not under orders to prevent Iraqis from displaying the flag. For the most part, the US troops have been doing a fairly good job of this even before this...

Well as with anything else, it's a tradeoff. I use NetBSD often because it supports a lot of the weird hardware I tend to have around. For my primary machine(s), other things factor in, like availability of software, stability, hardware support, footprint, etc. OpenBSD places their focus on...
