you have to admit

rendering a computer un-bootable makes its about as secure as it can be. Good job McAfee, sounds like the perfect product, stopping virus propagation in its tracks :)

internet enabled?

So you pull into a hotspot, launch the mission 1 ap from your handset and upload the last 15 min of vid from the built in web cam straight to youtube, via the "choose engine noise" wizard.

Oh what fun the future holds...

audio

Gavin/Mary you got to do some post production work on the sound for these radios sessions. Recording from a skype call on pc speakers don't quite cut the mustard. Fatigue cuts in real quick listening to this scratch.

This is awesome

Hi hope everyone has watched this reconstruction of a theoretical outcome of a 500km wide rock smacking into the pacific ocean. If you haven't it is well worth a look.

I'm Excited

Comonn Guys and Gals

Lets pan back a bit and think about this in a wider context of the future of hand held devices. I for one am happy to see this platform beginning, an am excited to think about the future of devices in 3-5 years, if this is what we get from a gen 1 product.

So many of you just chime in with such shite small minded observations. Sure, there will be things that may mean *you* don't buy this particular handset, but lets look at the big picture [for a change]...

If i was making 50 calls a day, I'd probably choose a phone made for calling.... i.e. something with a good battery, and maybe a key pad, but that's just me.

Yay, more ads on the net, just what we need...

Its just an ad serving system. Googoil will allow Knol writers to run ads on their entries and will share income with them.

bah

Ill be looking for the first Paris Knol and accompanying ads tho.....

HD V's SD

In my opinion AD is no where near BD, and only slightly better than CD. My mate and I were watching some DD last night and agreed ED was all over FD. GD is old school compared to HD which has clearly fake ID especially after a bit of JD. KD languishes behind colorful LDs but you can beat the surgical accuracy of MD. ND wont tell us much for fear of OD. PD is download-tards. QD? Never heard of it. RD is better for rural folk, where SD is just fine for urban dwellers. TD, which was displaced when UD got VD, must be remembered here of course. WD is good on computer based systems including the XD. YDo we have so many formats? Its all about $D.

PH - Because that's one combo I'll remember.

is it just me?

So yesterday, Firefox updates to shiny new 3. Cool, works well, though i lost a few add ons. As I leave the office, my old mate Bill told me he was going to "Automatically" update my windows. OK i say. The this morning, I come in and open up Firefox to be told i have been update to the latest shiny version; 2.0.0.14 and all my add ones are back?

Huh?

PH coz thats just how i feel.

Sign me up

At last, I have found you!

Oh great one, I have scoured the web far and wide looking for a free screen saver and have found you at last.

Please, sign me up. Oh lord, and here is my credit card number, in case you have a premium paid version of you miraculous service and want to charge me $50 a month for it.

I just pray, oh great one, the screen saver is like the one with the 3D pipes I saw at a friends house one time with all those pretty colours, that is so coooool! Where do I click?

Simple

$1.50 and put them in a secure mail parcel courtesy of the Royal Mail. They will be gone for good.

Even better, pack 100 drives in a suit case and head off to T5.

1St Mate: Claw release ready

Captain: Jettison the module

Pshhhhhscht

1st Mate: Module away

Captain: Houston, the Jules Vern Module is released and on its way

Houston: Rodger that ISS

Captain: Its great isn't it number 1, to get rid of that. All that rubbish was getting a little stinky. Just think, in a few hours time it will be pulverized at 10,0000 degrees over the pacific.

1st Mate: Sure it amazing. Say can I have a look at that old book?

Captain: Sure sonny, where did you put it?

1st Mate: I thought you grabbed it...

Captain: Aww F*$%k It

None of you know what you are talking about

How can you argue about accuracy when you are not even using the correct units of measurement.

"ATLAS's role is to measure particles produced in proton-proton collisions within its 7000 tonne, 28,750 cubic metre bulk packing 100 million sensors."

Should read

"ATLAS's role is to measure particles produced in proton-proton collisions within its 1666.6667 Kilo Jubs, 49916660.8792 bulgarian funbags - (C Cup Posh Spice bulk) packing 100 million sensors."

Please pay attention to the details guys!!

Will
Thumb Down

eh?

Sorry, but having the usb and ethernet ports on the screen side of the machine has to the frikin stupidest thing i have seen in a long, long time.

And until the elonex molly gets into her bikini, ill reserve my decision on that important element of the purchasing decision making process.

Will

How about having to crack the first 3 levels of bricker or pac man before your sign up is accepted. Now we are talking!
