My phone sucks I need a new one, please!
I need to win something.
Hopefully I will win!
"Part of the reason the OS requires better hardware is to drive PC sales. "

Not true at all. The OS uses better hardware because better hardware is now the standard and CHEAPER. Why would they build the OS based primarily old technology? If it is going to last it needs to be based on current technology as well as prepared for the future.

"Dell is doing it customers a dis-service by selling them PCs with outdated OSes... Maybe Dell should get all their hardware working with Vista so it isn't a problem."

Where did you get this information from? Every Dell I've seen with Vista pre-installed works JUST FINE. Do you have any facts to back up your post or are you just spewing random thoughts?


"Companies like HP make a lot of the PC components themselves and can make drivers for them in house... Dell usually buys components from other companies and has to rely on them for the drivers... that is how Dell was traditionally cheaper than other companies... they were always throwing the least expensive components they could find into the machines..."

What are you talking about? Are you serious? Are you telling me HP makes their own processors, hard drives, video cards, DVD/CD burners, etc etc? HP is no different from Dell in regard to what quality parts they use. Dell uses Western Digital/Seagate hard drives, NEC/Sony/LG cd/dvd burners, intel/amd processors, and many other name brands. All video cards are pretty much the same standard parts.

Quit spreading lies and get your facts straight before posting.

There's a lot of people that don't want your post under this article. Back your music up on your computer and quit crying.
All of the iPod fanboys just don't want to think that SOMETHING could be as good as their mp3 player.
The zune is a great player, and I prefer it to the iPod. I had both and gave my 30 GB iPod video to my brother.

You might want to put your glasses on. It says 70 GB. Not 70 MB.
None of my friends own a 360. Thank God for Xbox Live :)
my xbox 360 is all I have at the moment
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
