This sounds awesome! By the way, it should be "managed such a feat" instead of "mattered such a feat". Can't rely on spellcheck alone! And it might sound nitpicky, but you really should stop saying "apparently" so much. It makes you sound like you're not sure what you're reporting is true. Other...

ukcalAs I understand it, and do correct me if I'm wrong, but that implies it avoids anything that has the same device. how does that work with other random obstructions? amnotanoobieWhat I want to know is what it would decide to do, if it is in a situation where it should decide if it would hit...

I really like Left 4 Dead so I'm definitely going to check it out. I think it's out a little too soon, but if it's a good game, who cares? I think I'll wait until I've ACTUALLY PLAYED THE GAME to decide if it's worth the money or not.

That's weird, this guy only lives in the next county over and I haven't heard a word about this. Well, it was probably in the news or newspaper, but I pretty much only read Tom's for news lol

The juicer...topic? Wait wait, are you saying a JUICER caused the crash?! Like, someone plugged in a juicer and it blew the circuit?! Holy crap! There you have it folks, someone plugged in a juicer and crashed the servers!

Shortage people? Is that the new politically correct term? And why would I imagine they wouldn't be rushing to the court house? O_o

Well, at the very least this will probably clean up all those old "shrines" to fictional characters. Man back in the day I'd search for something about a show and half of my hits would be geocities pages. Sigh. Nostalgia.

So, no World of Starcraft then? :(

World of Starcraft sounds awesome. I would play that.

maigoand you're supposed to use a touchpad? blarg Most people who buy this laptop are most likely going to be using it as a portable workstation and sitting at a desk, so using a USB mouse wouldn't be a problem.

jhansonxiMicrosoft was penalized with an injunction - they EARNED an injunction just like their lawyers earned a nice fine as well. If it wasn't for an internal email that showed their intent to make i4i's obsolete after meeting with them, the injunction wouldn't have occurred. WILLFUL...

I'm not too crazy about this for myself, but I have to say it would be great for someone who doesn't need a whole lot of processing power but likes to save space and doesn't want to have a huge messy tangle of wires behind their desk (like I do lol). Plus it looks pretty nice too.

I guess it's just another reason for me to upgrade from XP. Not to mention that my original XP disc is so corrupted it can't copy half the files when doing repair installs...
