Wait, so just anybody can buy one of those neon yellow hazard jackets?!

So close to making this Xkcd a realtiy, let's just get Suzette to start commenting on YouTube. [xkcd.com]

Palatino Linotype for me please. Or if it's gonna be a sans-serif, Franlin Demi Condensed.

@phate: In terms of story and general gameplay, I didn't really think X-Wing v. TIE Fighter was as good of a game as either of those seperately. Nothing really beats TIE as far as Star Wars games go.

Can't wait to see the blooper reel!

X-Wing and TIE Fighter

@Copernileo: Yeah...I'd probably be like that if I had the cash to throw around. Netflix is $9/month, so even the technically impoverished can afford it. ;)

Can I slide down it once I get to the top?

The American natives would be proud, there's not a molecule of dead cow we don't make use of! (Though we can attribute that to capitalism, not a reverence for animal life.)

Perhaps a replacement for all the people still using Microsoft Publisher? Lord, I how loathe that "publishing suite."

@Vinnie Vici: $14 usd is 10 euro, this is an American blog so the conversion was warranted. If Kat hadn't converted the currency, a thousand commenters would cry foul.

@Joe Stoner: I'm 23 and Commodore's was the first logo I recognized. But the 64/128 was my first computer, sometime around the age of 6. I still have fond memories of it.

@dapper_otter: The fact that Sony has stopped manufacturing cassette players doesn't make the one you have stop working. Hell I've still got one from 1985 that can play decently. And just because Sony stopped making them doesn't mean there won't be $5 chinese portable cassette players at your local drugstore for many

The voice acting seems top notch but the animated character actions seem over-the top or misrepresented. It's as if the animators rendered the film before actually recording the audio. Maybe that was intentional, maybe the clip is completely out of context.

This looks pretty cool, but at the moment I can't see any advantages this has over the Milestone/Droid already in my pocket. Of course, I imagine thats how most iPhone owners feel about the iPod Touch. I'm not really the target market.

@jeffsnewphone: So many times have I been there before. For example, Netflix once recommended Studio 60 on a Monday and I had the entire 22 episode series finished by Friday of the same week. Arrested Development I only first discovered on Hulu about two years ago, and I watched the entire 3 season run over a weekend.

@gr8wayn: Plans are for April release, which would line up with Microsoft's firmware update cycle. Too bad it couldn't have hit the November refresh.

Now I know what my weapon of choice shall be on my next killing rampage!

@jammywoley: Does seem a rather arbitrary comparison. By the same token, my desktop is thinner than a ukulele.
