You guys remember this suit the US miltary got for soldiers in Iraq? it protected them from bullets and such.

They refused to wear it because it was "too goofy".

i doubt this suit will have that problem.
youtube actaully is limiting the resolution more than the wii, i'd say.

hi def doesn't matter. me and my friends switched from the xbox 360 to an xbox on an HDTV because halo 2's maps weren't on the 360.

ergo, although 1080p would be nice, enjoyment should come first.

TIM: Why are you late? I said be here by six!
ME: It's not my fault! I wear glasses, you see.
TIM: That... is... irrelavent. How does that even apply here?
ME: Well, see, I don't wear my glasses when I sleep.
TIM: Ummm... Okay... I don't wear clothes when I sleep, but I don't tell you that.
ME: Ewww. You just did. Never mention that again, please. Anyways, well, I woke up and I couldn't find my glasses. They had fallen off. So I couldn't read the clock.
TIM: You mean you're so blind you can't read a clock right next to you?
ME: Yea. Everything pretty much looks like different colored lights.
TIM: Well, just get a bigger clock. They sell those.
ME: My clock is 12 inches across. As I said, everything is a spec of light.
TIM: Well then, you better get number 21 then. Blue LED binary clock.
ME: Brilliant!

21. Blue LED binary clock
i believe the RIAA's opinion of you having a CD or downloading a song off of itunes is that you don't own it either.

napster doesn't delete the music after you stop subscribing. it just doesn't play. if you resubscribe they'll work again.

napster is great for new songs and such. the numa numa song? i didn't have to buy that for 99 cents. i got it off napster, no additional cost, and was able to play it the few times i wanted it.

napster's pretty good. Most people don't listen to songs forever and ever. tastes change.

if you're going to subscribe, might as well get the player anyways. for 50 bucks, it looks pretty good.


well, i suppose i can add in my 2 cents worth. which brings the grand total worth of this thread to about 1.2 mil.

ahh well. I find it a bit odd that sony would use a burned disk. If they were showing the difference between a normal DVD and a blu-ray disk, they wouldn't have to ahve a burned disk, would they? they could just pop in the real DVD. If they couldn't find the DVD, well, i doubt sony movies are doing that badly, or that well.

Now, if they were trying to show HD content from a regular DVD-r, then, most definatly, they would have to burn one, which seems a bit more likely.

both ways still don't make sense don't make sense.

the only explanation that would totally explain why it's a burned DVD is that they weren't showing the movie, but rather excerpts and highlights. Maybe they had a dramatic fight scene that they looped. Which i think is the most logical explanation.



Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
