I think he wants a holographic projector. I do too, but thousands of dollars won't get you that right now.

No... these companies have a long way to go in picking technologies that aren't flash in the pan fads from decades ago.

This man's life exists to bait an enraged gamer to murder him. Maybe he should tread a little more softly.

Like anything new, Panasonic, I won't prejudge, hard as it may be, but you will have to prove it to me you are a contender.

I could see this being relevant in the future. You know, when the average person can afford one and not be called a gadget whore.

"one foot to thirty meters away." Your metrics are imperially confusing.

Get away from the church full of irrational nutjobs. Stop seeing Satan everywhere. Live your life and stop worrying about how you got here. You have too little time to spend it pondering questions there are likely no good answers for.

"It wouldn't be all that surprising if it adopted a policy similar to that of Microsoft and banned any hacked PS3's it detected from going online." I play with an XCM converter, and I'm not about to take my chances that it might still work. Therefore, I have no reason to install 3.5... and...

Stop me where? How many resources do you think Microsoft expended on getting every 360 game to have achievements? It's a given these days, but does anyone understand what a massive organizational undertaking that was? I'm making the case that Xbox Live launched in 2002 at $50. A lot has...

Once again, no one wants to recognize that the success of the company means we continue to get what we want. It's always the good consumer and the evil corporation, and the rare occasion where the two can agree on something. It's always adversarial... offense and defense... righteous consumer...
