    Tired Of Telemarketers? So Is The FCC

    I keep getting Spanish telemarketers, and twice I actually got someone in English. I asked politely to remove me off their list and I'm on the do not call registry. They didn't do so. They called me everyday at least 2-3 times. I pretty much used a voice changer and had it say "yo soy satan" on...

    Microsoft Worried About PCs Still Using Windows XP

    IMO cut it off. don't support XP. Why? because for most people, they wonder why their pc is so slow when they try to run software that hogs their single core/maybe dual core cpu thats 13 years old running 1GB DDR RAM if lucky. The customers I can actually get to buy a new pc, even the cheapest...

    Equipment Makers Want Telecoms to Upgrade Networks

    @JohnPMyers no disrespect at all by the way :) but yeah. some areas will easily get some crazy high speeds on cable vs DSL. just depends on the area like you said. unfortunately where i live, cable is complete garbage.. when you see downloads hit 1.2mbps while dsl goes 2.6, it's disappointing...

    Equipment Makers Want Telecoms to Upgrade Networks

    @JohnPMyers hate to say it.. but Cable is not a dedicated line either.. more traffic, the slower it goes. It's like a 2 lane neighborhood with a no outlet sign.. more cars, longer it takes, in a nutshell.. DSL is dedicated BUT they still go through other DSL circuits.. thus it's technically not...

    If i had a kid, I'd also agree. HELL NO! There are enough low life pedos out there. So... What if he is one? That's my feeling.

    Diablo III Female Monk Now Official

    I'm pretty sure it's safe to say yes, for each class there will be a male/female version. I think I've read that question quite a few months ago on Blizzard's forum that there will be for each class.

    Microsoft: Windows 7 Isn't Killing Batteries

    If I remember correctly.. The OS does not control battery power but the schemes of course.. If Windows ruined a battery, that means it must somehow control the amps/volts and allow the power brick to give more than it can handle.. Transistors, and all that good crap control the power to the...

    Just stop. Please just stop. I'm down to getting one of these when it hits the market, if the price tags seems right. I love the brush metal finish on it.

    Adobe Responds to Steve Jobs' 'Lazy' Comments

    LOL I guarantee if you go on Job's Mac computers, you will see some form of flash installed. If not, then he is completely stuck in the dark ages.

    Windows XP Phone Runs AMD CPU (Specs, Video)

    first off, the whole crysis thing is annoying. please stop all failure to humanity. Looks very cool, but can you image what would happen if malware gets on it? Also what about viruses. it would be a very bad idea if someone bought something with a credit card over the phone not using the...

    Intel's Next IGP Slated to Run Sims 3

    Intel will never make it in the Graphics market. Simple as that. I'll stick with my Nvidia 260 :) Also. Tom's Hardware should make a poll. Such as whoever says "Will it play Crysis?" will be banned. So annoying. I'm not here to waste time reading that one line every new news post.

    Microsoft Changes Browser Ballot to Appease EU

    WOW. I would just not sell them windows at all for acting like babies about such a small factor. I wouldn't care if it hurts sales or not. That's just ridiculous.
