It takes more than two hours for you to drive 30-40 miles?

When was it that Hondas began to get "butchered"?

I ask a a current Honda driver who's going to have to get a new car soon.

Communication system, storm shelter, and dressing room all in one!

Argh. Which wont link right. -____-'

Amazon linking error there. I meant to link to the wired 360 controller for the first one.

They already do worse. Quick -- what's the difference between this XBox360 controller, compared to this XBox360 controller here?

Give up? NOTHING. They don't even need an adapter. I bought the 360 one for my PC and it's plug-n-play. They are literally the same product (actually I've heard some murmurings the components in the "Windows" one are inferior to the console one). The 360 one is normally cheaper, too (though not at this exact time I notice) because as a "console controller" it gets put on sale more.

Why is the Vukan-based driver have a spec named for the Klingon homeworld?

So they shouldn't add the Start Menu back -- because all those people who continued to buy Windows 7 aren't using Windows 8, so they have no room to give feedback on the Windows 8 interface.

Do you see how stupid your reasoning looks now?

If Microsoft listens to feedback from people as to what they want in a product, more people would use the product. At least that's my line of thinking.

There are a couple things I'd like in the final version, but I don't have a copy of the technical preview installed. Anyplace I can vote on the same list from Microsoft's own website?

What happens when the "replacement" part has a software component required?

I feel like the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act is going to come into play at some point here.

Did these operators have some sort of contract with Nintendo where they were guaranteed new titles for a set period of years? Were they told the titles would be exclusives for the VS system, which Nintendo later released for the home systems? I doubt it on both. Sounds like a bunch of whiny arcade owners upset a company exercised its freedom to not do business in a given segment anymore for new opportunities they weren't a party to. They were a middle-man to game players and Nintendo started selling to them direct. The operators just bought a bunch of hardware and unfortunately bid on the wrong pony. Could have happened with any vendor/platform.

TL/DR: Operators getting caught in changing times; who moved my cheese?

All of the ISPs seem to be "out-doing" each other in terms of offering faster and faster service, but why can't they compete on reasonable rates for "slower" speeds? My 5Mbit service from Comcast is currently costing me $50/month, about what it was 10 years ago. Seems that if they can push a 2 Gigs for a few hundred dollars, I could get at least get 50Mbit for what I'm paying now.

If the author wants more reasonable rates for slower speeds, why is he asking for more speed for what he's paying for, instead of a reduction in rates for his 5 mbps to reflect the disproportionately higher speeds Comcast is offering now?

Also is the author in Atlanta? Comcast in one part of the country isn't really the same Comcast in another. They may have the same name and all be traded on the NYSE under the same symbol, but in a practical sense they are apples and oranges. They are administered and run on a local level and pricing is set to reflect local market conditions. They are really different providers between regions. Just with an extra layer of middle management and the CxO's on top getting their salaries.

That will never happen. Verizon is on the "too big to fail" list, besides being a major telecommunications company (and therefore a part of the National Defense).
Even if they were actually found guilty/lost/whatever any penalty would be adjusted to make sure it doesn't really threaten their prof^H^H^H^ stability.
