@bearproph: Here is a video where one of the Firefox designers discusses the issue: [blog.mozilla.com]

@sam4sb: You are obviously not from the West Coast of Canada.

I found the 57 degrees to be an odd number, no pun intended, until I figured out that a 57 degree angle creates an arc length that is 99% of the distance from the TV.

@techtech: Personally I think it is great. I can read iPhone love on Engadget and iPhone dislike/hate on Gizmodo. I can then form my own opinion rather than just reading what brushes my ego.

@El Pollo Loco: Indeed, to me it is nice to be able to read media that is for, and now against Apple, adds balance to the world.

@Les Mikesell: I run Opera 10.54 for weeks at a time with at least two windows each with anywhere from 5 - 15 tabs open and it is very stable.

One of the criticisms of introducing technology is that it can make it not affordable for all countries to have the same experience in their leagues.

@albinobluesheep: Why wait till you are 30. At 24 is when I began reinvesting in LEGO.

I see Apple's ultimate plan, they create a cult following, then slowly release more and more lethal products until they kill off the world's population.

The back is nearly indestructible, my 4 year old Sansa has only one minor blemish on the back, and that was when I wanted to see if a key would scratch the…

@Wansai Ounkeo: I bet that Captain Kirk didn't even have to be in the vicinity of the closest Wifi hotspot.

I can see FaceTime/video calls being useful sometimes. However it seems to be disconnected from the way communication has been progressing recently.

Okay it actually makes me a bit nauseous hearing people cheering a clapping over a phone.

@oofnig1: This needs to be said more often.

@I, Opener: Oh, that brings back memories. I spent a lot of time with my Construx sets. Though the biggest flaw with them was that the large plastic rods would often crack and would not longer grip very tightly.

@dtptampa: Sorry I took so long to get here, I was too busy trying to figure out how to chat with a friend who was playing a different game than I was.
