Ah, that's bad luck Carlos.

Most of us in the United States are probably getting Friday and Monday off for Lincoln and Washington's birthdays.
It's nice to have a 4 day weekend.
Hope everyone has fun.

And it reads cd's fine?
I once had a dvd burner problem, and I fixed it by going into device manager and uninstalling the drive. Then on the next boot it redetects the drive and it fixed itself.
System restore sometimes fixes problems like that...

Saw part of the opening yesterday, looks awesome in HD with all those fireworks.

Halo fans will have to upgrade their computer if they want to follow Master Chief's adventures on the PC.
Microsoft has announced that the PC version of Halo 2 will only work on the new version of Windows called Vista.
The decision could make it expensive for many to play the game if they have to buy the new version of Windows and extra hardware for their PC.
Microsoft has given no definite release date for Vista but it is expected to be available by the end of 2006.
Saw a discussion about this on Planet64AMD. That's retarded if you MUST have Vista for it!

Just watched the original Exorcist on DVD.

Windows x64 supports several terabytes of memory. Bad thing is the lack of some drivers for it. But I'm running it just fine now and the only ones I'm missing are webcam and fingerprint scanner.

Nice system.

You're right, I'm sure other counters have things that we think are dumb too. Dosen't necessarily make the people dumb, just silly traditions that who knows started them.
They aren't any groundhogs out here in California, just gophers.

I've seen it in the ads, looks like a cool game.
I remember playing Galactic Battlegrounds, Master Fluff. Fun game.

The reason why I say they are the BEST, which is only my opinion, is that they are not meant to be mobile. You can't carry around the amp, the adapter, ect. to use in other things. That is why I said they are good for a COMPUTER where you don't move them around. My headphones are not the BEST for mobility, as I already said, but are just fine for me and my computer and my budget.

Oh yea, I remember her...What was her name...
The page of all the episode summaries is here for all the seasons http://www.fox.com/24/episodes/ , her name is probably in there somewhere.
Looking forward to the next 18 episodes!

Now this is our American groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil!
Here's a little rhyme that goes with it:
It is said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.Around the country there are many imitators of me.
In Harrisburg there is Gus who appears on TV
working for the lottery.
Then all around town,
Cute groundhog statues abound.
They all look like me, I found.
Today on the Knob as I'm doing my job,
I don't like this likeness of me.
It's my shadow I see. Six more weeks of mild winter there will be.

Yea, exactly.
The big one will cost a lot (in the hundreds probably).

4600 a little while ago.

You may have heard of this Optimus Keyboard .
Each and every key on it has a small OLED screen that can be customized to display anything you want... special Chinese type fonts, math symbols, english, pictures, animated pictures, ect.
I first read about the keyboard over a year ago, and they have plans of producing it. But they just announced this new mini 3 button keyboard today.
This one will be taking preorders soon, and is about 100 dollars US. It can display almost anything on the buttons. Just take a look at the flash page an click on some of the links.
I really hope the big keyboard goes into production as it seems to have so many uses. It will definatly give ZBoard some competition.

Speaking of EBaums, there are plans to make a TV show on one of the networks (don't remember which one).

Watched the State of the Union Address a few hours ago and The Shield as well.

Another nice song Bobby.

Anyone watch last night?
Ahh, another intense episode!
My favorite part is Jack's interogation of Walt with the knife threatening to cut out his eyes one by one.
-
I will be watching 24 in a few hours!

Score!
There was this rock climbing store that sold carbiners for 79.95, but the website said 7.95, so lots of people ordered them at the cheap price and actully got them!
Maybe you'll actully get them for free!

I saw this press release a few days ago about Netflix.
NETFLIX WILL SUPPORT HIGH-DEF DVD AT LAUNCH
Online DVD Rental Leader Embraces "Next Wave of Consumer Excitement"
LOS GATOS, Calif. - January 24, 2006 - Netflix Inc. (Nasdaq: NFLX), the world's largest online movie rental service, today announced it will carry the first movies available in HD DVD when the new high-definition format launches in late March, according to plans recently outlined by several major movie studios, and said it will similarly offer titles in the Blu-ray format when that product launches, expected to be later this year.
"High-definition DVD is the next wave of excitement in home entertainment and we'll be there at its inception," said Netflix Chairman and CEO Reed Hastings. "With far sharper images, better sound and more features, we expect high-def will greatly enhance DVD's consumer appeal and extend its popularity over the next decade or more."
With Toshiba's new high-def DVD player now available to be ordered for March delivery at several leading online and big-box retailers, a number of Hollywood studios have announced plans to launch both new and catalog titles on HD DVD beginning late that month. Warner Home Video said at the recent Consumer Electronics Show that it will introduce 24 titles in HD DVD on March 28. Universal Studios Home Entertainment, Paramount Pictures Home Entertainment and The Weinstein Company made similar announcements.
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, Lionsgate and Paramount also said at the Consumer Electronics Show that they have each selected between 10 and 20 titles to launch concurrent with the debut of Blu-ray hardware later this year.
Netflix said it will make the high-def DVD titles available at launch as a way of supporting the next-generation DVD format and signaling its belief that while initial adoption may be limited the market will eventually migrate to high-definition.
"For those subscribers who have an immediate interest in renting movies in high-def, we're committed to making the full range of titles available at Netflix the moment they're introduced," said Mr. Hastings.

I'm glad they will be doing this so when there is a final format we can rent those online as we do with our normal dvds which is a great deal.

I think that just sharing the DVD drive under the same workgroup should be fine. It works for me at least.
