  • The real problem with those file deletion screenshots is the default button selection is an affirmative action. A dialog that asks if you're sure should always default to the negative. But UIs have been so bastardized today, I suppose it doesn't…
  • If you're a geek with baggy jeans who keeps his phone in his hand and his head looking down at it (or pavement), get a P910A or similar. If you want a functional PDA style phone, get a Blackberry. If you want a phone that works and looks cool, get…
  • Quote: Originally posted by e1618978 Eugene - are you sure it is not your monitor? The whole picture looks natural to me. The right side (our left) of her face is out of focus because the depth of field is so small. DoF should produce smoot…

  • Quote: Originally posted by hmurchison but my heart tells me that HD-DVD is the more "logical" solution when it comes to satisfying the needs of producers and consumers. NO, I think it's your lack of a brain that tells you this. Yes, I am …
  • Quote: Originally posted by bitemymac 4) BD movies on single layer discs will result inferior PQ than HD-DVD. Just the codec itself can explain why... MPEG2 vs. H264/MPEG4/VC-1 on 25GB space..... do the math. MPEG-4 AVC and VC-1 achieve better…
  • Quote: Originally posted by hmurchison Sony is either going to prove that there's a market for a $500-600 console or going down in flames trying like Trip Hawkins. Sony isn't going to market the PS3 as a $600 console only. My bet is Sony w…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Telomar This is not a console for a moment, it'll see out 5 or 6 years of life. It's going to have a similar lifespan to the PS and PS2. You're partially right. At this point it's no longer a console. It's too fa…
  • Quote: Originally posted by hmurchison I'm not a Sony or Blu Ray hater. It's just format that is expensive where it doesn't have to be. That's why I oppose it being the chosen format. Don't forget the Toshiba HD-XA1 is feature identical to…
