i know everyone seems to hate this movie, but i really liked it. i have rewatched it several times, to boot. not a great movie in the overall scheme of things , but enjoyable. at least, to me. maybe if i had played any mario game, i would then realize what a horrible travesty was apparently created!

Submission + - $1.2 million ultimate games collection appears on eBay (geek.com) 2
An anonymous reader writes: If you’re a collector of video games, counting the complete back catalog of titles for one system as part of your collection is a commendable achievement, but what about having full gaming sets for 22 different systems? I doubt anyone has ever done that through game purchases alone, but one eBay seller is offering such a set. The price? A cool $1.2 million. That’s a crazy amount of cash to spend on games, but when you find out what’s included in this auction, and the condition the games are in, it might actually sound like a good deal.

thats old news....i used to snort nodoz back in the early 80s. was not a coffee drinker then, but had been used to snorting cocaine. so when i wanted caffeine, break out the old coke prep setup. however, was NOT that effective, and was actually a real pain chopping it up fine enough to snort. no mortar/pestle available. youth and stupidity....

same here, only reinstalls occur after harddrive screwups,(twice in 7 years) and i have a ton of pirated stuff ,including the OS. XP, XP64 Win7(64). never have had a problem YET, but i also have these units isolated from the internet.am thinking of making one of these a streaming Roku2 homebase. however, if i had ever had a console, that would be one of its duties!!
