1. Comment - Comcast to offer bandwidth consumption monitor

   Bulls***. What are you going to switch to? Nothing. DSL is slow. Sat uplinks have high latency.
   
   There isn't anything to switch to that's better, only worse. And I doubt you're going to ditch your broadband for ISDN or dialup.
   
   So you don't have a choice, unless you want to move.

2. Comment - Apple slaps 'chrome' on the back of iPod Touch, remakes nano

   Yeah, their "Genius Bar" is just an orange s*** version of The Geek Squad or Fire Dog.
   
   And I guess you have to be "genius" to fix their products. Class act branding by Apple yet again.

3. Comment - How did Dell get 'carbon neutral?'

   (Aug 7, 2008 - 10:39 PM)

   The concept of carbon credits is total b.s.
   
   So instead of Dell actually cleaning up their act, they just buy credits elsewhere.
   
   It would be as if your neighbor pays you to live by candle light and walk 10 miles each way to work, so he could drive his H2 and keep his floodlights on all night in the backyard.
   
   Yes, his over usage, and your under usage average out, but that's not the point. EVERYONE is supposed to be trying to conserve.
   
   It's just another typical American solution, throw money at it, to make it go away.
   
   I don't eat seafood, so I should get credits because I'm saving the ocean (I don't eat seafood, because I don't like it, but that's not the point).
   
   I also don't eat gorilla or orangutan, so I must be saving the Congo and Indonesia also!

4. Comment - Mozilla Labs considers grafting IM onto Firefox

   Why don't these companies use the windowing environment for what's it's for: 1 app per window, and the ability to cut/paste or drag/drop into other windows.
   
   Instead of trying to do everything in one window, they should write their code to accept standards so that other apps can interface with each other.

5. Comment - Microsoft posts videos of users who liked Vista after thinking it was new OS

   Is that the same release model R.E.M. has with their albums?
