Egads that's ugly. Reminds me of my Xbox 360 screen. While I game alot on the Xbox 360 I still find the GUI ugly, hard to use (probably don't use the menus enough as I spend most of my time playing games on it), and they don't use the full scree…

There's a bunch of things wrong here. #1. The publishers shouldn't take a loss because Amazon takes a loss. The publisher should be paid the price he sets (wholesale price). #2. Publishers shouldn't be colluding on the price of e-books. I…

Heck, farm kids in our countries used to be pulled out of school in the fall just a few decades ago (if it's still not happening), to help with the harvest.

Since under age seems to be defined as under 16 years (I checked one of the reports), I'd like to know how many of these have families or would drop out anyways from school. It's not worthwhile for everyone to finish high school. Some people can ma…

As well Steve was the owner of Pixar until he sold it to Disney. Of course, like charlituna said, Steve sold it to Disney, which made him the largest shareholder in Disney. Somehow, though, I can't really associate YouTube with a real money-makin…
