For "gross indecency charge that led to him being treated with hormones" read "chemical castration for being gay". A truly abominable act by our Government and one I have campaigned for a pardon over for a long time (and not just by moaning about it on the internet btw, thought ive done plenty of that too).

Even as a huge nintendo fan, there's just nothing right now to make me want a console. Even the games in the pipline are a bit meh. I cant say any of those games makes me excited, though I would love to be proved wrong on Mario. Once the new Zelda (not WW, a remake of one of the more hohum entries in the series) comes…

Why criticise this? I mean its no great shakes, but we're hearing loads of small details about both consoles at the mo, most of which are just little tidbits like this one is? So why make your article another dig at the Xbox? So childish.

I definitely favour externalising all the things i have to do. It seems onerous, but surprisingly the list is shorter than it might seem before you begin. When I started out on GTD I had this vague feeling that the list was infinite. Certainly the list of things I might do is infinite. But the actual list of committed…

Whatever happened to daydreaming? Thats what I always did on long journeys.

I stopped years ago and went to a set top box. If you live in a family home like me your viewing tends to revolve around one shared room and a set-top box fits into that scenario far better than a HTPC or laptop.

They're totally different machines. Different hardware, different software. Its like asking why you cant play PC games on a PS3.

Whats worked for me, mostly, is to have multiple bank accounts and a low limit credit card (£500 in our case).

Can I just say at this juncture that Netflix in the UK is absolutely awful. I got a three month free sub when I got my Apple TV, and literally ran out of good things to watch before the three months was up. Its range is so stunted compared to the US. As someone memorably put it, your local video shop basement bin, now…

Different devices have different uses. I have a Nex 7 which is very much my own and sticks with me like glue. But we also have an iPad thats very much a communal device. It stays in the living space and everyone that needs access to the internet can use it. Profiles on that would be great.

You gotta love human endeavour.

Nice.

Ha, nice burn. But do check your business models. If you think that FOSS is supported by large companies out of the goodness of their hearts, think again.

Small businesses don't phone Microsoft for their support. Im a CEO of a small charity and like most SMEs we outsource our IT support. Costs us a few thousand quid a year. But we would have to pay a lot more for support from someone who would support us with an open source setup, assuming we can even find one.

there are quite a few three month free spotify deals floating around, I just grabbed one in the UK from through my ISP. Rdio is better, but three months free is pretty good.

NG++ is where the game's difficulty really falls away, relative to the skills and tools you cant help but have by that point.

I know we all like jumping to conlusions - but its worth pointing out that the proof of the pudding will be in the eating. If the Forza team do genuinely roll out lots of new content, from day one, and offer a driver AI that is appreciably better than what's gone before, then this online singleplayer idea is a good…

US population is around 300M, total US sales of 360 is about 38M. Even assuming thats one per person you're only talking about 12% of the population owning an Xbox. And while I cant prove it, I would be astounded to find there wasnt a strong correlation between people having the internet and owning an Xbox. That…

I haven't used Logic since Apple bought it out (which I was horrified to find was now over 10 years ago - gettin old) and never bothered with it because I used to use Windows for music stuff.

This video is fake! It didn't freeze/crash/glitch even once in 20 minutes...
