  1. Review - EVEREST Home Edition

    2.01.348 Beta (Jun 3, 2005)

    Formerly a good program, now being gutted.

    What was the last release to include full functionality?

    Hello, DatabaseBen -

    "Those little box's people live in are the true cause of all the wars and death's in this world. They are the true enemy of freedom and peace. . . ."

    Well said, sir.

  3. Comment - A salute to a true managing editor: Walter Cronkite (1916-2009)

    2.01.348 Beta (Jul 20, 2009 - 8:35 PM)

    Walter Cronkite was an intelligent and deeply honorable man. The comment above reflects the perspective of a person who is neither.

    Beware your little box, sir. You may not like what you find when you emerge from it.

  4. Comment - Caption Contest: Win Vista and Office!

    2.01.348 Beta (Jan 31, 2007 - 4:59 PM)

    Photo 1 - Bill Gates regrets his decision to use a Microsoft-licensed deodorant . . .

    Photo 2 - Vista security: A flight of fancy?

    (Together, they're the "Hasta La Vista" babies!)

  5. Comment - Vista Inches Closer to Release with RC1

    2.01.348 Beta (Sep 2, 2006 - 4:23 PM)

    Hello, roj -

    Thank you for your contributions. I completely agree with both your posts.

    Still, although I appreciate your admonishment to wait for the next version, I'll find it extremely difficult to do so for another five years. Time is certainly a factor, but so is the buying trap: Vista will soon come pre-installed on new computers. In my case, I plan to buy another PC within eighteen months.

    Indeed, even if I was to wait for the next release, there isn't the slightest guarantee Windows 7 would offer any better value than Vista. Microsoft rarely concerns itself with quality, and this seems especially true now that the company appears to be in major decline.

  6. Comment - Sony Details PSP Launch Pricing, Date

    2.01.348 Beta (Oct 28, 2004 - 12:03 PM)

    "[B]attery life of the device is only four to six hours."

    Consider it this way: The best laptop batteries last only slightly over five hours, with many not reaching three. Portable DVD player batteries seem to average less than four hours.

    These figures are as good as I hoped for this kind of device. I'll pre-order it for North American launch.

    Thanks,
    Brian
