My sister doesn't want any of that crap. A photo printer? They can't tell the difference between their 1.3MP camera phone and their Dad's 12MP 15x Image Stabilized DSLR.<br><br>I disagree with Intrepid. I personally could never run Mac (I'm an overclocker and a gamer at heart), but there'd be nothing I'd like better than to shove a Mac at my sister and tell her to only run Windows in Parallels when she really needs to play the Sims. That will cut down on the amount of family tech support I have to do...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Juaquin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 14th 2006 1:44AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget's Holiday Gift Guide: for daughter]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well Juaquin, each to their own.

That completely gets rid of any issues about "my game/application won't run on a Mac". Yes, there are a select few games that will not even run in Parallels, but if you need one of those rare few, just create a separate partition and dual-boot windows. That's the beauty of Mac switching over to Intel (x86) processors, they can run windows now, in case you missed the five billion posts engadget did about it.<br><br>Like I said, making a teenage girl run Mac OSX most of the time will cut down on the amount of tech support you're going to have to do.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Juaquin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 6:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget's Holiday Gift Guide: for daughter]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just one question: What does the person using the Toshiba immersion helmet need a webcam for?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Phil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 10:05AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget's Holiday Gift Guide: for daughter]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</guid><description><![CDATA[Good God.

I'm a "daughter" (age 18) and I find that list pretty demeaning. Except for the MacBook and the Nokia, I would say that list is either for a) VERY young girls (in which case why would you give a young girl such expensive items - like the PSP?) or b) girls who have little taste in electronics. Either we're stupid or 4 years old.<br><br>I mean seriously. A Photo Printer? That's something my mother wants - I would never use it. And a -pink- PSP? Wow. Creative ideas, guys. Clearly all girls share the favorite color of Barbie pink. Admittedly, the Nokia is a good pick.<br><br>The HDTV isn't attractive at all (which is important) and if it "doesn't have the best picture in the world" then I would ask them to wait a little bit longer, save up and get the better one. After all, we all know that if by some odd chance it's the only HD in the house it's either going in a family room or everyone else will use it regardless of whether it's in a private room or not. Might as well save up for a better picture and something that doesn't look hideous.<br><br>Also, how in the -world- did the "Magic Mirror" get runner up for that stupid Toshiba helmet?<br><br>Sorry, but I feel you guys missed the mark with this one.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[the.gecko.girl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 14th 2006 11:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget's Holiday Gift Guide: for daughter]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</guid><description><![CDATA[Maybe you missed that:<br><br>Pink is not the same as P!nk...

I certainly DON'T want anything pink (or p!nk), a dancing dog, or a phone with pictures of bubbles on it.<br><br>The only thing that appealed to me was the notebook, and the VR helmet looked interesting but...uncomfortable.<br><br>And stop stooping to the stereotype that the only video games girls play are Nintendogs or the Sims, honestly.  Give me WoW or a good FPS any day.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Meadhbh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 14th 2006 1:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Engadget's Holiday Gift Guide: for daughter]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/13/engadgets-holiday-gift-guide-for-daughter/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry, I gotta agree with most others that this list is crap. Most of it too techy or too expensive for a majority of girls to really enjoy. I can't believe you recommended both a PSP and DS, let alone the PSP before the DS. Girls have NO interest in the PSP, just like they have no interest in the PS3. They want fun, Nintendo gives that too them with the DS and Wii. :P]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Billy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 16th 2006 6:37PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
