I played for about 90 minutes last night. I am impressed with the graphics but focused on the story (solo/coop), seems like more of the same. I mean it's good but as with most sequels and for me especially after the 5th time around, it's feeling a bit repetitive. Maybe as I get farther into it I'll get more excited. :)

I like that desk. Who is it by?
What calderone said ^^^^^^ ( thanks calderone ) :)
It's a pretty sturdy table and beautiful when all nicely cleaned and oiled. Yes I use mild detergent to clean it and then apply a very light coat of baby oil or similar to give it a nice finish. The oil is applied and then wiped back off with a cloth so doesn't stain clothes etc. Only downside is that it tends to scratch quite easily so make sure you have rubber feet on everything. Also, carbonated drinks cause a nasty stain if left on the surface. I had a drop of cola on mine once and it almost seemed to eat into the surface slightly. Makes you think twice about drinking the stuff!!

I sometimes wonder what the world would be like today if over the last 30 years we had spent 80% of our military budget on actually productive *****.10% would be a good start.

I think every laptop ever made has battery issues. I'm about to get my third for my Rev. B 12" PowerBook if neither of my old ones is covered under this recall.
Your 3rd?? So do you have 3 year applecare warranty? Or did that all happen within 1 year?

From the pictures I can conclude you traded a 30" monitor, your Canon 70-200mm, and the orange frog for an iPad. :p
All of the above are in my closet...minus the 30" :rolleyes:
That HP was the worst of the bunch anyway...I'm looking to go all Dell

I agree there need to be big cuts, but it seems like the only thing we cut nowadays are smaller programs that have actual long-term benefits. Not things that actually contribute to our huge debt. Like it's been said multiple times in this thread, the military budget NEEDS to be DRAMATICALLY cut and if you disagree, then you're either completely ignorant of how much we exactly spend on our military, or you are absolutely paranoid of the rest of the world.
Taking away bargaining rights from teachers that are already underpaid? What's that going to do? Lowering the salary of congressmen? Congratulations, Congressman Boehner, Congress now saved an extremely tiny bit of money (which you then blow by increasing spending on the military by $24,000,000,000 that it doesn't need).
We need to cut spending on things with no return, and increase spending on things that will truly benefit America in the future: Education, science, innovation, etc. If that means higher taxes, then so be it. That's what got America to be the biggest and best economy in the world to begin with.

Anyone have experience with this chair? The price is great and I like the design. Not sure about ergonomics and durability though.
Great reviews on it from another website. Don't know it at the moment, have to do a deeper google search to find it.
I was about to buy it but it went out of stock and whenever it gets back in stock I won't have the money. It makes me plan angry.
At the moment I still don't have this chair but I will sooner or later.

Haven't joined in the POTD for a while - mostly because I'm still playing with my new strobes. But here's a little camera porn for today, courtesy of those same new strobes - and one of the many relics in my camera closet.

Something tells me that one still using a 3GS isn't likely a must have "latest and greatest" kind of consumer. I had a 3GS which I bought on Day One. ATT let nearly everyone upgrade early to the 4 so I did. It was a no brainer. Why you stuck it out w/ the 3GS I can't say but to be bitching and moaning Apple doesn't upgrade fast enough like you are is silly. If you only upgrade every 3 years what difference would more frequent upgrades possibly make in your life? I think you protesteth too much.
I am still on a 3GS and no ATT did NOT offer me any kind of early upgrade deal so I chose to spend what money I had on an iPad. I am not complaining - I'm just saying. My contract just came up and I was really looking forward to getting a new iPhone this year but now I am worried about upgrading to a small time iPhone4 refresh and being trapped into another two year contract when everyone upgrades to a fancy new iPhone5 next year.
No I do not blame Apple for this at all but that doesn't mean it's not frustrating for me. If they need to change their timeline of course they should but i am not sure i can stomach another 6mo to a year on a 3GS.

more MP's ≠ better photos.
Yes, and that's why Apple is going to increase MPs from 5 to 8 but, obviously, it's "not about the specs".

Ah - but it isn't as many as 50 % of the gun crimes that are done by black men. This is just racist propaganda from a statistics-generator which has been pre-programmed to disfavour people with non-English names. The next statement will probably be that more than half of the honour killings in the United Kingdom are done by people from Pakistan or Arab countries, which will be just as absurd. In some cultures, it's acceptable (or even expected) to use violence to get what one wants, and we have to tolerate each other as we are. Dialogue and Understanding.

Here in Brazil we have high taxes. Taxes are high and public services are of poor quality. The cost of labor is quite high, due to all the labor bureaucracy that punishes both employers and employees. The purpose of mounting the iPads here in Brazil is that they would not be able to pay some import taxes and enjoy some tax incentives that the Brazilian government grants to companies that assemble their products in national territory. Furthermore, we live in a fake democracy, in which the State is only concerned with lining their own pockets, leaving the needs of the Brazilian people in the last plan. That since 1500.

It would be cool if you could buy comics this way as well. Maybe when you buy a physical comic, it could give you a code to enter at the iTMS (iTunes Media Store) to download a CBR version of it.
Right now, you can download all sorts of comics on BitTorrent as CBR or PDF format, and Marvel (www.marvel.com) has a pretty cool online (Flash-based, I think) comic reader from their website.
I'd love to be able to pony up some amount of money and have, say, the entire run of X-Men at my disposal for reading. And controlling the DRM on a comic would be easier than that of music, or even text.

The iPhone 5 will not be released until 2012. The next iPhone will be called the iPhone 4G.
Until then, any self-respecting journalist should refer to it as "the fifth-generation iPhone."
Thank you, and seriously they are not going to make the jump to Iphone 5 for another generation after this one, that I think is still going to come out on time, with an A5 processor in June. I will be making the move from my 3Gs to the next gen as soon as it comes out. Btw I am not basing my knowledge of a summer Iphone release on the fact that apple has not let me down yet year after year of releasing Iphones early into the summer.

I miss the days of holovids:D I sure didn't miss much of the story then, unless of course I decided to get the hell out of a level vs reading the 'vids.
I will say, I quite enjoy co-op multiplayer even though I much dislike the story and lack of emotion.
The data pads have me much intrigued, but I, unlike some of you, but like most of the halo population, will not torture myself with Reaches legendary. (where half of the datapads can be found)
