Evening Reading

Sure got a lot of messages about that MS 4000 keyboard. It's apparently sold out at Newegg already so I guess a few other people are digging on it as well. I'm actually using the the reverse tilt on the thing now and have gotten used to it. At first I took it off and was about to throw the thing away when I thought hrm.... maybe I should type in a healthier position? Luckily over all these years I havent had any wrist issues but no use playing with fire. Just like Remo's policy for all those hookers and his dental dam.

- Once again, the death of the PC
- There's a naked dude in your ceiling
- Check out Serenity -  first 9 minutes
- The Swedes know when everyone in California is gonna die

Lastly, the SAG doesnt like reality TV :(

      seriously, the PC will never die, but I DO see it Merging with the Television/DVD player to become a Media center.

      Sort of a WebTv/XBox/Tivo Amalgram. But it can never die, just like the TV will never die.

      I DO believe I've heard predictions of the death of the TV for at least 10 years now.

      I can see that PCs will be come servers at least and at best nothing changes so much.

      A PC could be the hub for all the other toys you have like PDAs, thin clients and Pornodeck®.

      I know...

      That's why so many companies are investing billions of R&D into the PC market...

        I don't see why I mean clearly nobody uses the things, and certainly less than we did a few years ago when he started claiming the PC was dead... er, uh. Hrm.

      Weak article. The author does not sound as if he has ever played an MMOG, cut a podcast, or uses his PC for more than basic fear mongering, er, word processing.

        He sounds like a blowhard. OMG I said it was gonna die 2 years ago and its not dead yet but SEE!!! ITS GONNA DIE!!! His writting is 4 pages of rambling crap with little detail as to why. MorrisCNN needs to go kick his ass.
