Comment Re:93 million accounts? (Score 1) 68

Sony has over 93 million accounts? As far as I know only about 50 million PS3s have been sold, some to upgraders / replacers / theft or fire insurance claims, so there's probably less than 50 million PS3 user accounts. The other 50 million or so accounts are ... ?

I have 5 accounts myself, iirc 2 europeans, 1 american, 1 japanese, 1 hong kong, I bet others have more than one account too

actually cygwin is quite useless on a server, it's only useful if you need to execute bash scripts and you don't really want to write bash scripts on linux either, better use something like python
as for the article some of the tools seems quite "meh", they also put nmap two times since zenmap is included in the nmap installer for windows
also they didn't mention managepc (http://managepc.net/) it can read pretty much any wmi info from other windows computers without the need to install any client

you don't have to, the classic interface is there even on tablets, we have seen office 2010 running on a tablet in classic mode when windows 8 was unveiled
also microsoft might not be that open but they always give you tons of options to customize windows, some of them are hidden in the registry, but I bet that you will be able to choose the default interface from the control panel

Comment Re:Always thought Nintendo's "wins" really weren't (Score 1) 168

I very much agree and the Wii U will be a bigger catastrophe, I think that more than 60% of the wii sales are from casual gamers and the very fact that they are casual gamers imply that they won't need a new console in the next few years, and nintendo pretty much left the hardcore gamers in the dust(likewise we left our wii in the dust too..)
so who is gonna buy the Wii U? very few people imho, probably just the hardcore nintendo fans

yes, valve, please go ahead, and put it on github.com - I "smell" a big chain of forks/contributers already :)

they are just releasing the sdk for free not the sourcecode, unreal has done this for some time with udk, and crytek will do the same next month with cryengine 3
