I am a regular reader of engadget and typically can appreciate the "tone" of the site as slightly sardonic and acceptably sarcastic - something that's been established over the years. This piece instantly struck me as poor. If seeing the gaza atrocities "bums you out" as you read on your Nintendo, I suggest you try helping out or living there. This piece needs an edit, stat. It's not witty, quirky, or even "Family Guy" offensive - it's just a poor, failed attempt at being on the level of the other well-written pieces on engadget. It appears the author just "Flatley" failed at being even a poor man's Ryan Block.

I totally agree, I have XP running on a P2 233mhz omnibook! XP is still the champ IMO.

Why VGA on all these buggers - I want to use something like this as a portable HD video player that I can hook up to TVs.

I love this but it needs 2 very important things for starters: 1) a DVI or HDMI output and 2) a DVI/HDMI input and VGA input.
Some may question the needs for these but here is why they are needed: if you have other devices, and you would like to use this as a primary screen for viewing movies, etc., then it needs to accommodate other inputs, such as videogame consoles and HD STB/blu-ray players. It should definitely allow you to use another primary screen to display it's content, especially if it doesn't have any inputs. I am aware it has an S-Video out and a Cable-in, that's just not enough. In addition to this, I would change it to do away with the proprietary storage expansion and have at least one standard expansion slot open.

I agree with just about everything said here.

If you have to ask this question, you obviously aren't paying much attention.
The industry corporations that illegally collaborated and were found guilty of price fixing your CDs could never be mistaken for good guys.
The trade organization that invests in lawyers suing their own customers for a QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS for 2 dozen songs could never be mistaken for good guys.
Major victory, very pleased with this great news. BTW, even if they were [insert lame recording artist here] .mp3s, Jammin Jammie is the good guy here. Thanks for playing!

No they will pay for all her legal fees :) :) :)

No, I believe if you settled with them, you sign a document admitting fault and whatever else they have charged you with in exchange for being charged "only" several thousand dollars as opposed to several HUNDRED thousand dollars. This is the "landmark case" and is great news indeed that it has been overturned, thank god.

Hey I'm calling BS on this post - no one has ever posted how to get the digitizer to work on the TC1100! Sure, OSX can install, but the tablet functions do not work. Handwriting? BS dude.
