| | This ties in nicely with the news Prince Alwaleed of Saudi Arabia buying himself a nice new Airbus A380 for his new toy. There is SO MUCH oil money pouring into the middle east these days that they really are having a hard time trying to decide what to do with it. Wait until oil hits $150 per barrel and suddenly there will be a world wide outcry about all the Arab's buying up the world. It will be just like Japan back in the 80's. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Poor kid will have to live with that guilt for a long time. I'm sure that everyone in his neighborhood and school know it was him. His family will probably have to eventually move from the harassment, causing a rift between his parents and finally divorce. He'll end up a juvenile delinquent, bouncing from reform school to reform school, and ultimately in jail. Flag this | Edit this post |

| I hate CES. It's a total nightmare of long taxi lines and thousands of people all pushing and shoving to get from one venue to another. Not to mention that it's the first week of January, which means that everyones holidays are ruined preparing for the show.
CES used to be just consumer electronics. When Comdex imploded, people in the PC industry needed a new trade show to show off their goodies and CES was the next logical show. But the audience isn't really there to see computers, they are there for big screen TV's and DVD players, so the PC people are forced to scrounge for space on the perimeter of the show or get scattered across hotel rooms up and down the LV strip.
Now they've added games. Sure, why not. The bigger the show gets the better as far as I'm concerned. The bigger it gets the sooner it will implode like Comdex and E3 before it. And then I won't have to attend that nightmare of a show ever again. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Kessandra, your video upload capacity has been increased. I couldn't remember where we put the administrative controls. Fortunately, Pongky found them. Flag this | Edit this post |
