Oct 3rd 2008 1:09AM Yeah I know disgusting. I'll stick with a Thinkpad then. The X200s will weigh 2.4lbs. Not as good as 2.2 lbs of the Dell, but having to move my fingers away from the home row of the keyboard to control the pointer blows. Using the side of my thumb on a feedback-less flat surface is no less attractive.

Alienware cans Hangar 18 HD media server before its time {Engadget}
Sep 29th 2008 3:56PM All these $10, 12, 30 thousand dollar servers make me want to laugh. Sure they are tough and built to the highest standards but you could go and buy an HP Mediasmart server for $500 add $560 worth of drives and end up with 5TB of storage that has built in redundancy, serves up media with Window Media Connect or Twonky media server or Squeezecenter and backs up every computer in the house nightly. You could add another 6TB using the eSata port and a drive cage. The system is tiny, quiet and power efficient and can just sit in a basement. They are so cheap that you could run two of them in redundant operation or even for $500 just have a backup server ready that in the case of failure will take all the drives from the failed one and get your storage back up and running in about 15 minutes again. You could have 10 of those in redundant operation with 50TB of storage for the cost of one of these new-fangled overpriced servers.

Sep 28th 2008 6:45PM Interesting how you first thought AAC is lossless and then you didn't even realize that FLAC exists and actually is lossless.
Engadget Cares: save us from Apple's groundbreaking, developer-shackling App Store {Engadget}
Sep 25th 2008 4:55PM I'm sorry to hear. Why don't you develop for S60? I dropped cash on a S60 application just yesterday. No restrictions, no hassles and has 54% of the worldwide smartphone market. You can market it how you want and sell it how you want. Post on HowardForums about it, or contact any of the S60 BLOG/Site owners who will help you promote it worldwide. There are licensing systems in place for trials, subscriptions and sales.
Not telling you what to do, but just because a platform isn't new and huge in the US doesn't mean that it isn't the WORLD's largest mobile software platform.

Sep 1st 2008 2:16PM Show me one benchmark where the Atom beats the cheapest Celeron. Some processors are optimized for power consumption while others are optimized for performance. Remember that son.
