You'd think the scientist types could manage GMT time instead of referring to 'Local time' throughout.
Am is supposed to know the author and where the fuck he lives?

No such BS was necessary for Australia in 2008.
No wonder athletes cheat, with such shining examples of honesty. A bogus event from the beginning.

While they're at it, maybe they could change over to using REAL powers of 2 values for Megabytes and Gigabytes, like those other solid-state memories, RAM.
Despite what their marketing departments tell them, people are not stupid and are not fooled by 1,000,000 bytes to the MB, etc, to claim higher capacities.

Dubious marketing guff aside, if I was going to go through all the pain of moving to 64-bit, I wouldn't do it for a poxy 4GB when I can get 3+GB in 32-bit already.
8GB minimum, preferably 16GB, and that's just where I think it should start.

Actually, with heaps of CPU and only 480x320 pixels in the display, I'd bet on him implementing ray-tracing to achieve high-quality graphics.

I'll tell you right now,
MLC is the HD/DVD of SSDs, SLC is the Blu-Ray of SSDs.
People just won't settle for cheaper but inferior, no matter how many profit dollar signs are in the vendors eyes.
They might as well get used to it and concentrate on SLC and bring the price down by total market dominance, that works!

They may be planning to make 'jobs for the boys' by making a ratings agency evaluate and rate the games, not the games companies.
Even worse, it could be like Australia that doesn't have an R (X elsewhere) rating for games, so if it gets an 'un-rated' rating (if you follow me) then it can't be sold at all.

USB 3 Spec |

Actually it's just the host-controller spec', but that's bad enough.
Hey Intel! Remember how ugly things got for you with the Pentium bug and later gaffs?
Well, you may get to market first, but so did HD-DVD and we customers voted with our wallets and killed it, Xbox 360 or no.
Get the picture?

It sure would be nice to have shadows and reflections in Second Life, next version maybe?
(Of course, then we'll start wanting high poly count avatars too !)

Antenna reality |

"The assumption is that the TVs are connected to an outdoor antenna 30ft above the ground with an electric motor that allows the user to point the antenna toward the desired station."
And if, like me, you have multiple TVs in the house and the kids want to watch a program from a different signal direction... ?

So I went to the site, cracked the code (I,II,III,IV,V) and it says - "Belief and Betrayal will be released worldwide in early 2007".
Great QA on the web-site, I wonder what state the game is in?
