It was taken out of context. He didn't literally have a headache. It was a term of endearment. He actually quite enjoys managing 1 million animals. He also likes kicking small children and provoking his pets.

"No budget" means less than the Smurfs movie (less than $110 million).

While I agree going lighter will typically increase performance, the popular trend is to go big, sometimes at the expense of equal weight from what you previously had for wheels. More often than not, I see aftermarket wheel upgrades where the wheel barely fits into the wheel well, causing rubbing while cornering or…

They should go with some minor improvements first, call it 4Gs, and milk the population for another year or so. Then, when they come out with 5G, everyone and their fetus will get all crazy about the new version and riot over service.

They have red wires? It's a fashion statement. Why do people get rims on cars? They don't provide any functionality that a factory hub-capped wheel wouldn't provide. In fact, they are often detrimental to performance when compared to stock equipment, just like beats by dre. Some argue the bass boost theory, but…

Atari did have "Combat", one of my all time favorites. I used to rule at tank pong.

Close, but atari games were just "boxing" or "skiing", as if those were the end-all versions of those sport categories

Am I wrong in thinking the OG NES controller was comfortable for its time? I thought the Atari 2600's controller was a little uncomfortable. Would always give my right thumb friction burn and my left thumb cramps when playing "boxing". Man...those were the days, when game titles were the actual sport.

Why stop at just a better camera AND skill? Seems kind of silly not to wish for some crazy hot models and a lucrative photography contract as well. Aim for the sky.

I think it's what before the "@" that really counts. For example, jsmith555@yahoo.com = employable. Boobie1nspect0r@yahoo.com = unemployable (and possible sex offender).

I wonder if 1366 x 768 is somehow cheaper to manufacture because it is just about a megapixel. If it isn't cheaper, then why create such a small step between 1280 x 720 and 1440 x 900?

I don't know...I think 7hrive has a point. If this was truly cutting edge, it would be less clunky in actual use. I haven't looked at the code yet, but the site shudders on my work machine—a beast of a desktop my overzealous IT guy built for me (and blew my budget out of the water). I get that this provides…

I was thinking the same thing, but I've been out of the H TEE EM L circle for so long that I thought I must have missed something.

He should have been ousted (and beaten) when he passed on $31/share from microsoft.

I could be mistaken, but I was under the impression that readyboost only improved systems with less than 1gig of ram and/or platter hard drives that spin slower than 7200 rpms. I'm sure the speed increase with usb3 would theoretically make readyboost's performance better, but systems that require readyboost are few…

You don't have to charge your phone halfway through as-is? Maybe I'm a heavy user, but my phone (Vibrant) lasts 8-10 hours tops. Charging my phone via my car outlet on my commute home or out to the bar is standard business for me these days. My old w800 used to last me up to 2 days, but that thing had a tiny screen…

If I were ARM, I would be keeping an eye on battery technology as well. Intel may take a couple years to catch up on power/performance ratio, but just need to clear 8 hours of real world usage to become currently viable. I'm sure they have raw performance covered, so if Intel were to scoop up a cutting edge battery…

I lol'd, but I'm from MA. Not sure many people out there that don't live in MA and haven't see The Fighter will get your joke.

While I'll concede that your typical booth babe outfit is demeaning, I think assuming that a woman who is both smart and pretty will be less likely to want to work a booth at a tech trade show is somewhat out of date. That sort of thought died out along with scotch tumblers in your office on lunch break. I've known…

"I generally like the lack of 'booth babes' at CES, since it means booths are staffed with personnel who actually know something about the products on display."
