  1. Comment - The Dark Knight may yet save Blu-ray from the lair of the PS3

    (Dec 23, 2008 - 12:58 PM)

    Mike, please don't STFU. What you said makes the most sense out of anything I've read. I have a PS3 and have adopted watching blu-ray movies somewhat. I usually rent instead of buying because of the price.

    However, people I try to talk to about blu-ray look at me like I'm speaking another language. They mention that the player prices are way too high, the movies themselves are overpriced, and the quality difference just isn't there when they compare the dollars to what an upconvert can do.

    So I'll watch my rented blu-rays, and yes I do notice the difference, and be happy with my PS3 games as well. What Mike says though, makes perfect sense regarding public perception and timing.

    Yo Moron, the context in which you use the word, "maybe," in your previous post is incorrect. It should actually say, "may be."

  3. Comment - HP shows more success in PCs, servers and storage than in printers

    Our company has some of the newer LaserJet 4700 color printers and so far these things are rock solid. Have had a couple that needed only minor maintenance which is simple enough to handle.

    I was also just deployed an HP 6510b laptop which I'm liking so far. Seems like a nice machine.

  4. Comment - Warner: Rising gas prices drove its Blu-ray decision

    Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion. Transformers was an awesome popcorn movie.

  5. Comment - Controversial Christian Game Under Fire

    Exactly. Turn it around. A game where Muslims and Atheists "win" by killing all christians would cause a public outcry from all the holier-than-thou folks.
