    klipsch 2.1 anygood?

    Having tried many diffrent systems the best seems to be two 6.5in book shelf speakers and a t-amp. On of my favorites is a AV123 and a sonic T-amp. They are just insanly good for the money. Av123 have some good bstock items that are just open box items. Theyre are tons of versons of the...

    Apple: The New Microsoft

    True that and how that must hurt for anyone at MS that retains objectivity. The worst is all the innovators that get bought up and the fruit dies as soon as it becomes part of the corperate tree.

    Time’s Most Influential Person Is 4chan Founder

    I see U are a little behind here. Time played time- they knew it was rigged. A controversial opinion is good for business lots of clicks. That is how the web rolls. Sorry guys 4chan and you have been played. :D

    Time’s Most Influential Person Is 4chan Founder

    Like it or not it has some validity. Just about every played out internet meme came from that site. Why some woman on the yo-yo diet that cant tweet right should win an internet award is beyond me.

    Apple Approves Of Shaking Babies

    Yea the fascist bastards that want to delete mention of this kind of thing but fail to do anything to actually try to prevent it. Hide these kinds of problems in the closet and they get worse. You really need to learn to deal with reality not avoid it. Yea lets get those kids back to the family...

    Blu-ray Sales Nearly Double in 2009

    Guess you havent looked at the bandwidth more than doubled. 7 vs 25-50GB and with better compression. It is not just about size it is about quality. Bigger and better otherwize upconverting would do the job it absolutely does not. Just like everything crap in crap out if the source is not...

    AP Copyright Lawsuit Takes A Funny Turn

    One thing of note he did not manipulate a picture he used a picture to make the art out by hand.- that is a big difference. It is hard to make a proper judgment if you dont know the facts.

    Ten Technologies About to Go Extinct

    Actualy one of the big reason was fear that the phones would directly interfere with the devices because they used high energy RF. This started when they ued the old 2-4 watt cell phones. This is back when nothing used RF. After y2k when tons of really old equipment got trashed it hasn't...

    Uncool To Be a Mac User in These Tough Times?

    Fanboy fail if the laptop was so great of a deal they would not have had to give her a gag contract. One problem Apple may be negative but does it use deceitful message? They admit their bias. 20+ acting jobs and not cool enough to own an apple yea right. From TechFlash

    Surgeons Using Twitter During Brain Surgery

    Lots of them. This new thing twitter is evil-. Forget that there are already computers video cameras and these people answering the questions of one or two people instead of thousands. Only med students should be able to see this I guess.

    Opera: IE 'Kill' Switch Not Enough

    No as long as they dont re brand it and hide the source code they dont have much problem. It is a lot like drivers MS doesnt own them either. Personaly I would like a choice of what to install just so there is less crap on my computer- I dont see the need to install and uninstall a program...

    Amazon Is The New Scrooge?

    They also complained that people were not paying enough taxes. Well great I guess these people dont have to work themselves but live off others that sure is moral.

    Intel Tears Apart NVIDIA Ion in Document

    Say what you want about NVIDIA's problems their integrated graphics are vastly superior to Intel's. There is just no comparison. Whoever made these claims is either out of touch or just speaking the company line. The claim that people dont need any more performance than intel provides is...

    Microsoft Overpaid Laid Off Employees

    Not a lawyer but I have had more than my fair share of business law and HR background. Severance pay is often part of the benefit package. If the company puts it in writing it is considered a contract. You would be legally bound to return the extra if this was the case. There is often an exit...

    NVIDIA Stock Plummets

    Good job! No names are no replacement for innovation. Seriously who is stupid enough to replace a video card with the same performance. There is a reason sales are down. Looks like the only win they have is integrated graphics with Apple but Intel is trying hard to shut them out of that...
