"Union" uses a Y sound.
Y is sometimes a vowel.
"An" is used before words starting with vowels.
What's the problem?

Sorry, misspelled Magnuson-Moss Act. And to further clarify you can only mod so far... i.e. supe up your engine too much and your tranny breaks, you're out of luck. But you can do some go-faster mods with little to no worries.

I'm assuming you're not in the US? Here we can modify our cars to our heart's content, as long as those modifications are not the cause of the item to be repaired under warranty they cannot count against you and the warranty must be honored. It's called the Magnusson-Moss Act.

regardless, it does not put the consumer out any more money, and if they refund it the consumer gets more cash back on top of the movie than if they had paid interest.

Well if they get their $35 back and buy a digital copy, they will have the movie and cash in hand left over, which is more than they'd have gotten if they just took what WB offered.

I'm sure Monster will still sell a new 2.0 cable at a slightly higher cost when this starts getting popular.

The appeal is having a dedicated low power, small box to just push media to your home theatre that can be controlled via remote, instead of moving around windows between displays and having to worry about your other activities interfering with your movie watching, etc.

I love how I can have all my contact info (or anything to help get my phone back to me) scrolling across the screen when the lock is active in Ice Cream Sandwich. Best of both worlds.

outside at the drive-up ATM? this is maddening! I have 3 ATMs at my local BoA and I try to wait for the next one to become available, but most times I'm forced to pick one at random (of course the slowest) because some asshat behind me lays into his horn until I do

A History of 3D Cards From Voodoo To GeForce 320
Ant sends us to Maximum PC for an account of the history and current state of 3D video cards (single print page). "Try to imagine where 3D gaming would be today if not for the graphics processing unit, or GPU. Without it, you wouldn't be [trudging] through the jungles of Crysis in all its visual splendor, nor would you be fending off endless hordes of fast-moving zombies at high resolutions. For that to happen, it takes a highly specialized chip designed for parallel processing to pull off the kinds of games you see today... Going forward, GPU makers will try to extend the reliance on videocards to also include physics processing, video encoding/decoding, and other tasks that [were] once handled by the CPU. It's pretty amazing when you think about how far graphics technology has come. To help you do that, we're going to take a look back at every major GPU release since the infancy of 3D graphics. Join us as we travel back in time and relive releases like 3dfx's Voodoo3 and S3's ViRGE lineup. This is one nostalgic ride you don't want to miss!"
