Comment Re:Why not a laptop? (Score 1) 263

See I would think this was to now. Over a year and half ago I bought a Sony E-Reader due to the fact I thought the netbooks where a joke, now netbooks are well worth it. I have to stay with yog, buy a netbook/laptop, don't get me wrong I love my e-reader due to the fact I can run what I want on it and not have to follow Amazons rules. The Kindles price is not worth the paper it was created on.

Its been said time and time again threw here. As a person that loved computers and gaming I was like you. I thought it would be great to work with what I loved for so long. So I went to school and got a degree in IT. I did trying the program and devolpement run but found out very fast it was LONG hours with ZERO rewards. So to make a long story very short don't make what you love to do your pay you begin thinking about how dull your life is. I have changed my job into something most would think dull as hell but its 9-5 weekends to my self, and great pay. Now as for the computer thing I have joined a moding comunity and code with them and beta test software and hardware on the side, keeping me happy with my hobby and paid in the real world. All in all, join an online group first and see where that goes before you pay big bucks for something you run from.

Hell at times it feels like the first Nintendo DS was an experiment, its was named "Nintendo Developer System" and it didn't pack a ton of power and look how many different versions they have gone threw with it. Making it smaller and with more addons as they went on. Nintendo isnt aiming at the regular crowed of gamers here, they are going for something totally different with each console release.

I do believe that the Wii was created for casual gamers not hardcore. They wanted to get the part of the market that just wants to pick up the controller play for an hour or less then leave. Just look at the high selling titles besides Nintendo ones all are party type games. The game creators are just whining cause its not what they are use to, its too different for them to understand not everyone out there is a die hard gamer. I own a Wii, 360 and PC each one was created with a different idea and aimed at a different crowd.

Its really nothing new just the Apple fans bitching cause they cant buy the newest items and then brag to their friends or so called friends that they have the Newest Piece of junk from Apple. They signed an agreement for two years make them stay to it just like any other carrier does. Hell I've been with my carrier for 14 years now and I've never had a problem with waiting for my contract to run up by then they have the bugs worked out of the phone I want, its better to wait then to deal with the headache.

Around here its impossible to find a blank VHS. My whole point is all of this will not matter to Microsoft they will just move on. I am one that has Vista I do hate it thats why I have moved onto the Win7 RC much better of a product then Vista. XP 64 seemed like an after thought and doesn't run well for me. Guess we will see where Russia takes all of this in then end.
