    ...And Thus Ends the Mystery of Why the Zune Will Never Succeed

    The iPod plays music, video, et cetera, so of course it sells well. HD Radio is a feature that is best-done when paired up with a product, not one to be sold as a separate product. If companies like Apple adopted the technology, it would grow. You said that Apple could have added it if they...

    ASRock, Asus and Nvidia.

    So why exactly are you so adamant that I give NLite a try? ;-) Even if I ran Windows my main OS, I wouldn't see the use in NLite... it's that simple. I can especially see its use where you are concerned. If I was in that position, I'd be using it too, trust me.

    ...And Thus Ends the Mystery of Why the Zune Will Never Succeed

    Not that it matters, but do you have a source to back up this claim? Ahh, alright. They just updated their line-up, and didn't add it... but could have. I guess that counts for something. You do realize I own an iPod, right? I'll attack any product that that lacks features I believe it...

    Windows XP Usage Continues to Drop

    I wasn't referring to drivers and the like, but applications and other tools. I completely agree with everything you recommend though, and really can't add too much. I always hoped for a Windows installer that would give you the option of a straight-forward install (for those who don't care to...

    EA's Latest Marketing Techniques Stir up Controversy

    When I used the term "evil", I wasn't referring to this, but the act of marketing something that's absolute crap (infomercial-quality products).

    The PlayStation 3 Slim is Great, But...

    If it's the loss of PS2 sales Sony is worried about, then they should just release a more-expensive version of the PS3 that includes the hardware required for the emulation. Like you said, the chips can't be more than $15, but add the feature to the PS3, along with some other perks, and you'd...

    When dinosaurs ruled the internet....

    "The CRTC justified the decision by ruling that the infrastructure of the two telecoms giants is not an "essential service," so the CRTC could not force the companies to offer access." What makes the Internet non-essential? I know many more people equipped with an Internet connection than a...

    Who's a sportsfan around here?

    Not quite, but I'd imagine that'd be about as exciting to watch as curling ;)

    Intel Core i7-870 & i5-750 - Nehalem for the Mainstream

    Yup... now to wonder how these new processors will look in a year from now ;-)

    ...And Thus Ends the Mystery of Why the Zune Will Never Succeed

    Well, I don't feel bad in not knowing that, given that iPod was just announced this week. Still, it's not as though it didn't take Apple almost 8 years to finally implement the feature, when others had it for a while. The Zune still has the plus of featuring HD Radio support. Still, I have no...

    EA's Latest Marketing Techniques Stir up Controversy

    From our front-page news: Often used for good or evil, marketing can work in mysterious ways to help sell a product, regardless of what it is. In the case of marketing being used for evil, you might imagine that the target product wouldn't sell at all. After all, who's interested in purchasing a...

    Windows 7 - A Happy OS?

    Psi*... classic. I find that quite humorous as well. In Vista's earliest days, the company used to walk around the issues as much as possible. Since then, they've seen to calmed down a lot and are more accepting of them.

    AMD Launches "VISION" Program to Enhance Buying Experience

    From our front-page news:I'm not sure how I missed this yesterday, but AMD released a brand-new initiative to help consumers figure out which PC based on AMD components best suits them. Similar in some regards to how Intel denotes a PC's capabilities with a 1 - 5 star system, AMD simplifies...

    ATI's Eyefinity Brings Multi-Display Gaming to New Heights

    From our front-page news: At a press event held by AMD, many ATI-related technologies were unveiled, such as more information pertaining to their DX11 graphics cards. One technology to take the web by storm, though, is the company's "Eyefinity" multi-display technology, which looks to put all...

    ...And Thus Ends the Mystery of Why the Zune Will Never Succeed

    From our front-page news: Success can mean many things, but where audio players, like the iPod, Sansa, Zune and others are concerned, it's hard to call something a success when Apple manages to sell so many players, the results would skew a graph if you threw all the numbers in there. Microsoft...

    Windows 7 - A Happy OS?

    From our front-page news: For Windows users, the general consensus is that 7 gives people reason to be excited. After all, the OS went through a lengthy beta-test process, and came out fairly unscathed. That in itself is impressive, given the horrible reception Vista suffered. So while Microsoft...

    ASRock, Asus and Nvidia.

    What exactly is the difference between our methods, then? Both offer one-click installs, and can take care of drivers if need be. The only difference is that mine's a mirror image, and yours is a "real" install. Both accomplish the same goal in a similar number of clicks. I run a fast...

    Conan O'Brien and Andy Richter do anime

    Nah, that's just a generic message. I get the same thing now. This video is not available in your country due to copyright restrictions. Too bad... it was hilarious :-/
