I see a hell of lot more trucks and SUV's on the road than sports cars. If this analogy is true then the Surface will be a massive success.

I probably won't buy it. I wasn't that interested to begin with. I've played enough MMO's to know that server down time is a serious issue.

Compatibility between devices is still important. Cook is wrong. Apple has always been about creating toys and Cook's strategy will probably work for Apple fans. I want to be able to run the same software on my tablet, notebook, and PC.

Thanks, I've seen the skype phones. I don't mind using a headset myself. I'm thinking of my wife who may have a difficult time getting used to the idea.

If you want everything maxed with AA you don't need anything better than a 5750. I use a 9600gt and it runs fine maxed at 720p.

I rarely use my landline and was wondering if there is a way to hook up a phone to my computer for use with google voice. I have a computer that is on 24/7. I know there are headsets, but I don't want to be tied to my computer or have to put on a headset every time. It would be preferable to...

It's nice but I don't see it selling well. It's too expensive. Yes, the parts are expensive and impressive, but you don't need that kind of power to run any game currently out on the market.

I thought this was a joke at first. I can't believe you can patent something like "Alerting Users to Items of Current Interest." It's extremely obvious that the ENTIRE patent system needs an overhaul.

3D is AMAZING! I've played the original Crysis in 3D and it does add a lot to the game. Sure, a minority of people get sick/headache's from 3D, but that shouldn't stop the development of what could be the largest step in gaming immersion since Dolby Digital.

DaFeesOk yes perhaps you can use an HDMI 1.4a receiver to connect a PS3 and PC to one display, but here's my main concern. Is there a 3D projector yet that like a 3DTV uses its own glasses. I mean how can I connect a PS3 and PC to a projector and get 3D? If you're asking if you can connect the...

Blizzards does as it wants because no-one will ever raise a protest.

I would not expect wow to go free to play for at least 5 more years. I'd be willing to bet it'll be closer to 10. Blizzard will not release a new MMO until they feel threatened buy ta competitor. Several good MMO's have come and gone due to incompetent management of said game. TOR will...

tsnorquistI think Linux has a very viable opportunity for strong growth in up and coming countries/communities around the world. If a group of people haven't used computers or had access to computers often, they won't know the difference in what software they're using. True, Linux has become...

I think Microsoft is generally doing a good job in the field of late. I'm happy with all of their products except Live-mail. I haven't tried office 2010 but I doubt I'll buy it. OpenOffice works nearly as well for the majority of office tasks and it's free. Google is doing some great...

steelboxHotmail dominance, must be do to MSN Messenger. I have an Live ID just for messenger, but for normal emails and everything, gmail is my choice. I was thinking the same thing. Not only do you need a Live ID for messenger, you need a Live ID for EVERYTHING Microsoft, including Xbox...
