That's what people said about most of them so far...

I'm not a big fan of MP3 players overall. But this is honestly too small even for my liking. iPod mini for me if I even feel the desire to get an mp3 player.

The Xbox 360, What a Beast
Ah, I wouldn't say so. Most people are stilling running Standard Definition TV's. I don't know many gamers who will go out and purchase a new TV just for HD Gaming. SD will work fine and very nice, moving to HD will not up the quality that much (I see it enough as it is between dvd's in HD and SD).

Wow, Do I have bad grammar...
I wrote K instead of 000 when I needed to represent x thousand in a Maths exam once. Like 3K, 7K, 5.4K, etc. Amusingly I still passed.

Fastest typist ever... On a qwerty keyboard?
Only if you don't stop to think about what you're writing about ;)

Fastest typist ever... On a qwerty keyboard?
192 wpm on QWERTY was set by some student when she was still at college. I was looking for some official site but apparently it is in the '98 Guinness World Records. Source: Keyboards Redux: Fast Mobile Text Entry by Thad Starner. Edit: Spelling

Wow, Do I have bad grammar...
Heh, I found that typing correctly saves me more time than abreviating every second word :P I could understand a bit of if forums were in real-time but they're not. So I honestly have no idea why people can't make the effort to make their posts understandable :x It's picking up since I first joined but it still seems to be confined to Off-Topic and the Areascape section; I don't know about any other boards because I don't use that many :P @sunmann99: As for getting better. Just use full words and punctuate. I got a writing guide in the Varrock Library which has some general tips for how to use everything correctly if you want to read it :lol: Seriously though, just make the effort to make decent posts and things will fall nicely into place ;)

Hurricane Katrina
Yeah, some Australians who got rescued by an Australia news crew of all people. And they did say things were that bad. With the raping and the murdering. They were scared for their lives. They were like huddled in a section with the guys on the outside, chicks on the inside so they would've get rapped or whatever. And if anyone of them needed to go anywhere they were acompanied by 3 of the guys. To think you need that kind of protection just to go to do something simple like the bathroom is rather scary.

I'm calling 9 Songs.

If your computer is hitting 95C then you've really neglected cooling. I'd be seriously suprised if hardware isn't failing already at that temp.

Let's Turn the Tables for Once.
There is a difference between America going off on its own to attack some country on a hunch or whatever (like Iraq - I don't want to get into a debate about it, it's just based on the results of the invasion) and acting on behalf of the UN to achieve something. In the above case most of the UN wasn't for it but America did it anyway (enter 'policing the world' tag) and then the US government bullied a few other countries into helping. And attacked those who didn't want to (like France). Granted it isn't like that all the time but it's actions like that (being a bit of a bully and throwing its weight around) which doesn't help nurf the amount of distate people have towards the USA. Personally I have no real dislike for America. It's just sometimes the Government makes really bad political decisions. *shrug*

The Xbox 360, What a Beast
The last two weren't poor. Specially not the N64 :-? Rather fresh coming from someone with no idea about the specs of the Revolution. Nintendo isn't stupid, they've been in the business for a long time. For all it's worth, I'd like to see Sony and Microsoft get beaten by a system less powerfull. Afterall, hardware doesn't make the games any better than the gameplay itself. And from the looks of things, the gameplay isn't changing much. Pity you can only run 1 instruction thread per cpu. Two instruction threads running at the same time comes up to be about 1.5 single threaded running in parallel. So that pretty much puts it at 4.5, not six, AT MOST. And on that note, I doubt it'd be running all 3 cores at the same time. It will most likely only use as many as it has to for the given tasks. So I wouldn't exect more than a single core to handle the game, and the other two most likely for the networking and whatever else functions will be in it. Edit: And just for the sake of bringing if a somewhat "even" compeditor to the comparative mix: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=259219&start=90 Last post on the page by Death_By_Pod And let us not forget about the G5's which were running the XBox 360 previews or whatever at E3.

Personally I think the only reason most coutnries dislike America is because the US government likes to try to police the world too much. And I don't just mean wars and such, it's everything. As for hating on Germany: most of the german population had no choice in the matter. The Nazi party had everyone under its thumb.
