    2012 Most Annoying Words

    Using tweets as a source for a news article. Triple tacky for using a tweet in an article about someone passing away.

    2012 Most Annoying Words

    My top two are "read" and "think". Think annoying. No, don't tell me how to think, that's annoying (read - really annoying). Maybe these people could just learn to use the !#$!@#$ backspace key.

    CEO Says 'Nothing Wrong' With RIM

    Part of the problem is perception. The original [H] post by Steve is a good example of the idiocy, plus most of the posts on the first page. Childish people thinking they are being clever by bashing an easy target. :eek: Why would you wish a company dead that provides employment for 1000's of...

    PS3 3D Blu-ray Playback Loses Lossless Audio

    It would be interesting to know if this was a bandwidth issue with the HDMI port or a processing power issue. My guess is that the HDMI port on the PS3 can't handle all the data.

    PS3 3D Blu-ray Playback Loses Lossless Audio

    Post your workstation 2010!

    I saw a post within the last month, someone building a desk or entertainment center stand using 1-2" diameter round metal black pre-fabbed legs, wood top surface painted black, etc. [Edit: never mind found it 1504275]

    Your Mail in Rebate May Be In Jeopardy

    "We have been longstanding supporters of mail in rebates (MIR)". Really, we hadn't noticed that you promote NVidia products based on mail-in rebate prices from one particular online company and also base your bang for buck recommendations off of those dubious and ever changing prices.

    AMD ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 @ [H]

    I found with my 4850 that AA set in game (HL2 in my case) felt like it dropped the frame rate so the game was not as smooth. But if I turned off "Use application settings" in the control panel and manually set it to 8x Edge detect then I got great AA with no performance hit. When you tried AA...

    ASUS ENGTX280 TOP

    Feels that way to me. The ATI cards seem to get a "finally a good card" reluctant endorsement from [H] while any sign of life from NVidia gets the "red carpet lets roll out another review" treatment. Some of the negative bias seen lately comes from the general public who base their opinions on...
