On-line "petitions" probably carry 1/100th (if not 1/1000th) the effect of a hand-typed, printed, and signed letter. This applied doubly so to letters to politicians. If you really give a damn, put in the effort. It will make a difference to your cause.
Submission + - Chiptune comes to the stage (tokyo2osaka.com)
The Nipponese writes: "This is actually more of an event: a friend of mine (Morgan Tucker, aka Crashfaster) has been throwing some chiptune live shows around San Francisco for the last few months, and now he's bringing his show to the DNA Lounge this Sunday. At the very least, the free chiptune sampler in the link is a great intro into the growing genre loved by nerds and gamers alike."

Thankfully we've come to the point where network firmware upgrades keep the the console UX fresh. On top of that, Microsoft has been gradually adding specs to the 360 over the years. I am constantly surprised by the number of people who "just bought another one" because their previous 360 was lacking HDMI, or just didn't want to go through the hassle of M$ replacing it after falling prey to the RRoD. How long will be before M$ just says, "ok, let's add a new GPU to the existing hardware and call it the Ultra model?"
