I sometimes wonder if the people here who are bashing Vista have ever actually…used Vista. I bashed it for a while because it simply didn’t work with some of the peripherals in my computer, yet I had never actually used it. I went off the assumption that XP was "just fine", even though it too […]

please note its upper spectrum VHF, and strong for UHF at distances, 50-60 miles isnt a problem for it, I’m at least that far from transmitters here.
I read a lot of antenna specs deciding on this one, which seemed to offer the best bang for the buck, it wasnt a disappointment at all. the […]

THe London Olympic Games logo is a good example of shit design. Apparently it’s supposed to say 2012 in quirky numbers. To everyone else except the designers and the people stupid enough to agree to the design, it looks like a woman bent over giving a man a blow job.Seriously. AND THEY PAID £400,000 FOR […]

Delta Airlines and KLM used to rent them out on their long flights, sort of like how Alaska Air rents out PMP’s now. I remember getting one for the 8 hour flight from Anchorage, Ak to Amsterdam back in ‘89, and watching Lethal Weapon without letting my folks see because I wasn’t allowed to watch […]

I dont think people are in love with XP for how good it is, its just the most comparible OS to Vista so people use it as the benchmark. The worst thing about Vista is how frustrating it can be to operate, it’s the worst OS I have ever used, i’m a network/sysadmin .. simple […]

I’m running build 7000. So far it is everything they say it is. I have had no driver issues (simply installed Vista drivers in compatability mode). It’s fast, has yet to crash on me, and the usability improvments are meaningful and well exacuted.
But then again, I’ve never had an issue with Vista. Every single person […]

You’re a douche and randomly hostile while asking a question you could have found the answer to on your own, but I’ll be not a douche and answer it.
Basically, there are 2 types of memory in computers: RAM and hard drives. The hard drive stores all the documents, programs, files, etc. that you have […]

You probably seem schizophrenic to a lot of complete strangers if you start laughing every single time you see a Nano… That or my town is more Apple obsessed than others. FM tuning would be kind of nice, but I would have less than zero ue for microSDHC and support for formats I […]

To say it kicks the iPhone’s ass in every way is a little premature. Firstly, one of the complaints Android got was that it has no soft keyboard "also". Engadget has said this is a negative, when typing something small you have to slide out the keyboard. Also, there’s no reviews of battery life, the […]

Just more smoke and mirrors and rhetoric. Until this nations manufacturing base is restored, nothing will make this economy move for real. both Democrats and Republicans have shipped just about every manufacturing job offshore, and all of the multinationals will get more slave labor from China, India, Vietnam or where ever else where they can […]
