Amen to that. Man, when are people going to figure out that there is much better control with a TrackPoint.

I never said that I hear student say, "I hate movies." I think that Steve Jobs is spot on, and I have reason to believe that he has studies to back this statement.

I would estimate that as many as 75% of students in higher education admit that they HATE reading. That's a strong statement... not just a casual comment. They never say they hate reading leisure books, they simply say that they hate reading [books]. It's probably the same reason that public libraries are renting movies, and providing free high-speed internet access. Ask any librarian... book borrowing popularity is dropping fast.

One of the most frequent phrases heard in school: "I hate reading."

Ramp up production = increased staff and expanded facilities

Eventual sales slide = layoffs, empty buildings, and bad press

Smart decision, Nintendo, IMO.

This would replace the Timex that has had a watery face for a year now. Dang those Dakota watch "experts" who screwed up my watch! This would be a much welcomed replacement.

If you're giving, I'm receiving.

I was responding to Jake's comment, not referring to MPEG4

Uncompressed HD would far exceed 9GB. Uncompressed DV is over 12gb an hour, so HD would be even larger.

The MLB is just ticked because Slingbox owners are supposedly taking money out of their greedy fingers because those viewers aren't buying the games on MLB.com. This is the equivalent of the playground brat who took his ball home when another kid was a better athlete. MLB: Don't punish Slingbox or their buyers just because your product doesn't have as much value.

Re: Pre and Post

Let me explain using a scenario... You're at your sister's wedding and you're dad asks you to hold his video camera while he runs to the restroom. He says, "If they cut the cake, record it." You spot some hot thing walking across the dance floor and before you know it the knife is halfway through the first piece. You hit record and let out a sigh of relief because the camera has been "recording" for several seconds before you hit the button and will not stop until a few seconds after you hit it again (in case your sister sneezes cake on her new groom).

Pre and post recording is a videographer's saving grace.
