M$’s wiimote will also be shaped like a penis and like most phallomorpic products sold for the double moral USA it will be nothing but a showoff item with no practical use whatsoever.
Umm, why am I listening to 2 voices??
Distracting enough listen to devorak..
What the heck is with the annoying & distracting voice in the background?
Really bothersome!
….sold American!
J/P=?
Please drop the background noise. It sux.
The auctioneer makes it difficult to concentrate on what JCD is saying.
i think Dvorak is running a psychological test to see how many people the ‘auctioneer’ audio overlay makes batty. Or he forgot to turn off a tv. Could qualify as a mild form of torture.. hah.
Off Topic…
Made a PayPal “donation” the other day. I didn’t expect much as it was less than $100, but I’m surprised there was not even a “thank you” email. But, the blog is still good stuff to read.
The Atom/Moblin combo is a pretty wickedly good idea. I’m betting it’ll be either Moblin or Android as the winner on Netbooks. What would be even cooler is if a new manufacturer came along with sexy Netbooks, but it’s unlikely since the margins are thin.
Instead it will be Dell, HP, Acer, zzzzz…..
Samsung has a netbook (the NC-10) with an antibacterial “nano-sized silver ion powder” coating. I’m guessing Dell will be doing something similar.
Seems kinda pointless, especially on laptops/netbooks since they’re generally only used by one person.
That background voice sounded more like a horse race announcer than an auction to me. Whatever it was, it was irritating.
M$ innovates again, a wiimote clone! Will the big N file a suit for patent violation? I doubt it. M$ has a long and glorious history of copying what they couldn’t buy, and stealing what they couldn’t copy. Their army of lawyers always prepared to defend any action their masters may have taken.
