@mjt308: Why does your comment come across like backwards compatibility is a bad thing?

@Señor Cagon: I think he was referring to the "Arcade" version at $200.

@ddhboy: Another important thing to remember is that for a TV less than 40 inches, it's REALLY hard to tell the difference between 720p and 1080p. So I doubt consumers care. Hell, I have both consoles and I can't tell the difference on my 32" (but can on my 42").

@Ted: You bring up a good point. I predict that the next iteration of consoles will come in two flavors... a "digital download only" one that eschews the disc drive for a larger hard-drive, and a standard disc-only console.

@estpaul: Yeah, he was talking about movies, but hey - 1gbps ethernet doesn't seem too far away these days.

@CubemonkeyNYC: Because Netflix is 720p at best and Bluray is 1080p? Try the Zune service and then compare.

Saw a lot of the pictures were shot using Canons... where my Nikon homies at?!

@merkit5000: I actually appreciate it if the furniture is old (as long as it's not decaying or falling apart), because it gives the place some character.

@Jeff1741: I'd rather have an option to have that switch either be a rotation lock or mute. Maybe somewhere in Settings.

@negativenina: No, I'm not saying she should have sex with him, but I get the feeling she's not really that into him and is keeping him around for the gifts.

Geez, no wonder Vinny's date didn't want to show. All night he tells her "I'm going to wife you," etc... Yeah, that's not creepy at all, Vin.

@Belladonna77: Except he did. Granted, he didn't want to cause the initial drama by breaking it to her, but once the note came out, he had no problems with confirming "whatever the note said."

@The Lonely Tourist: The difference is that Mike doesn't give any excuses for what he's doing. He knows he's a man-whore and he relishes it.

@snownpaint1: Have you ever been to the Genius bar when your device is still within warranty? It's always been a smooth experience for me, with them replacing units either on the spot or within a week.

@Merricat: That's actually what I thought too, reading most of the items. They're not bad on their own - for example, no one should speak softly or last at meetings (or, be "invisible"). No one should be grooming themselves in public. The handshake thing is iffy, the "women are more naiive" thing is offensive though,…

@mustard_ampersand: It's quiet and no one can bother me in there. It's an acceptable break that everyone is entitled to, and as with all breaks, it's better the longer it lasts. So we tend to stretch it out.

@UrbanAchiever: Yeah, my cousin passed this bullshit on me too when I asked him why he didn't wash his hands. "But I only touched my penis and I didn't pee on my hands or anything."

@mustard_ampersand: As a guy, I think about 5 minutes tops are actually spent doing the deed. The other 20 minutes are spent playing Angry Birds on my iPhone.

@Schrodinger's Cat: Which is why I love the Dyson AirBlade or whatever it's called. All the fancy places have one now. Just put your hands in and take them out.

@Pessimippopotamus: Yeah, seriously. I get that this is supposed to be humor and I chuckled the first time I saw it, but the last three steps are something men do too.
