Feb 18th 2007 11:05AM Yeah the US sucks, unlike the idyllic rest of the world where it's problem-free and the morons don't have easy access to anything at all. We're glad you don't live here too.

Feb 14th 2007 7:59PM He got at least one thing right. Goldeneye 007 was the best FPS ever. Many have surpassed it since, but only because they were standing on the shoulders of giants.

Feb 2nd 2007 7:48PM Windows doesn't have 90% of the market because it's better, it has 90% of the market because it has 90% of the market. It's called a monopoly. I used to always use Macs because they were better, then I was FORCED to get a PC at work because they decided to "standardize" on PCs. The decision was entirely based on perceived cost savings. That ultimately led me to get a PC at home to be compatible. I suspect my story is not unique. Now that Windows has their monopoly it's difficult to use anything else because you're not compatible with 90% of the market if you do. It's a self-perpetuating dominance that has nothing to do with quality.

No point in debating with a lawyer I guess (wink wink), but anyway:
"hit the skids like everyone else" Yuk yuk, but I will amend my statement to read: not enough downside for the lawyers
"There are (read ARE) also ways to sanction them for frivolous suits. That is the job of the courts to do to set more examples. Yet they can’t do so under the current statutory allowances." Wow is that classic lawyer doublespeak. So are you saying they can or they can't.
"Just screaming lawyers are the bad guys" I don't recall screaming, just stating my opinion (which could easily be wrong, so sue me.) In fact I didn't even say that lawyers were bad guys, but that there was no (I mean not enough) downside for them, which implies a problem with the system. In fact I think that, as a group, lawyers are no better or worse than any other people, they're just human beings.
