@EShy: But you don't understand! Your ones and zeroes could be much crisper. Let me just connect this 50GHz oscilloscope to show you just how much better your ones and zeroes can look.

@Norbs: What you said about digital cables isn't entirely true. A cheap cable (really cheap) could, in theory, have enough noise on it to cause bit errors. It may not happen all the time, but mayhaps every so often, a zero gets sampled as a one, or the other way around. Single bit errors can be caught with parity, and

@GitEmSteveDave_IsNotLarryGaga: In a world of invented swear words, frell does a much better job of being similar enough to get the point across, but not similar enough that one could actually confuse it. In other words, "frak" is a pile of dren.

@Andinator: Really, you could find some statistic that you could beat Monster on (admittedly, their cable will probably do better in technical tests of analog signal, but it won't make a lick of difference for digital), and then just put a chart titled "Compare against Monster(TM) Cables" and have a check list for

Last time I was at Best Buy, I was helping my friend shop for an XBox. We were asking about the availability of HDMI on the various boxes, and I had noticed the $50 HDMI cable that you could buy with the XBox. We're both engineers by trade and we both know that it's all crap, and we're trying to explain to this sales

@tomsomething: My friend and I had a plan that could get three people to the moon and back for $250,000. $100,000 will buy you a seat. We've also got some thoughts about getting to Mars (one-way) for a cool $1,000,000.

@churnin: Yeah, I guess $100,000 could get you the moon and back.

@Sam43054: Or it would be low because people who spend that much yearly on mediocre web services are more likely to be unable to correctly manage their money. #creditscores

@Shamoononon: I shave my legs.: I think someone probably took the ad near the middle up on the $30mil loan (no questions asked!) to start the all the other companies featured in this ad. #creditscores

@Merton: Share price doesn't mean a thing in this context. AT&T's market cap is within 10% of Google's.

How did I get up here? Oh, dear. I am not good with high places.

@zeroprime: :::::: Is the hat a sombrero? Answer me! It is very important!

Why do you have to choose just one?

@tekamul: Something something tying Blagojevich into this.

@elwood: There were millions of dollars being poured into computers in the 70's, but that didn't stop some of the biggest innovators of the computer industry from starting in their garage.

@smalleyxb122: There are all sorts of technologies that allow you to get good power numbers yet still get reasonable mileage. If you floor your car, you'll probably hit peak power, but you don't drive with your foot on the floor all the time. On a dyno, this car could hit 400 HP, but when on the road, using

@six: "3 replies by six, six, six"

@acarr260: They don't really need to function together. I would imagine you could do some sweet spins by doing standard donuts with the rear wheels and ronuts with the front wheels. The car would just spin in place!
