1. Comment - Microsoft Helps Put Phisher in Prison

   (Jun 25, 2006 - 4:09 PM)

   people are idiots for believing this tripe about a 23 year old that was capable of scamming people via a MSN phising scheme for a year and a half. If it was that big of a deal M$ and the FBI should have tracked him down within a month. So they are just now announcing this first catch of some kid that was doing an elaborate phishing scheme between 2003 and 2004??? Sounds to me like a corporate and government scam to me.. They left this guy out to phish so they could sell the dumbed down masses on anti-phising software. Much like anti-virus companies. Amazing how they are always saying it's some kids writing these viruses and hours after a virus hits the internet and starts infecting computers, these anti-virus companies already have definitions for them. People must really be that stupid nowadays. As for me ever getting hit by a phishing scheme. if it ever does happen, I won't pay a damn cent for the charges. this identity theft scheme is just another way to track and trace your purchases.. and I'll say it again. if people are too damn stupid to figure it out, then they deserve to get hit by fraud. same goes with the morons that will rush out to get the Bird Flu shot when the planned pandemic comes...

2. Comment - Toshiba to Deliver HD DVD Recorder

   they must be smoking crack to suggest a retail price that high!!! you can get (2) 500GB SATA drives 16MB cache for $410. You could even go with (2) 750GB Seagate SATA with 16MB for $374 each and have 1.5TB of space for recording to HD. And the recordable Blu-Ray recorder from Pioneer BDR-101A is $950. Combining both together in a highend PC and you would still be under the $3500 that Toshiba wants... I'll pass until the drives get under $200 and the media is under $2 a disc..

3. Comment - DISH, DirecTV Log On to Satellite Internet

   (Jun 10, 2006 - 11:56 PM)

   It's $79 a month for 1.5mbps down and 256Kbps up and it works pretty damn good. I'm a Wildblue customer and I'm out in the sticks.. It's better than living in the multicultural, diversity up the a** city where crime is more and having peace of mind is non-existant. It works pretty good with Torrents and getting around on the Net. Only problem is the latency which you can't get around because it's a 90,000 mile round trip for a return packet. so about 598ms to 800ms is the expected latency. light travels 186,000 miles a second so a half a second is about right for satelite..
