R . I . P R a y.

Your artistry was an inspiratrion to millions. You will be sorely missed in a world of movies that depend on big bangs.

I remember seeing seeing his Sinbad and Clash of the Titans movie and was gobsmacked.

Icon chosen as an acknoledgement of the style of his moves.

And another genius is lost to us.

RIP Gerry Anderson

Thank you for the decades of entertainment you gave all children, from a kid who never quite grew up,

Walmart.

Nothing more needs to be said.

So cowell is not...

Just content to fucking up the music business and dumping loads of half baked "talents" onto the music scene? Now he wants to fuck around with somwething he has no fucking clue about whatsoever? And who is the tard he is bering in on it? someone IT related? nope. It is a c-rapper with dubious musical skills who can design a different dress.

Will someone please tell that useless dork to leave IT alone. We don't want to likes of him anywhere near us!

Apple are starting to make Macro$loth look competent.

Just sayin'

They got ripped off

Dick Smiths is worth way less than that. Their staff have no clue about technology other than what they parrot from the manufactuers printed toilet paper, they have moved from their electronic component roots and they charge like a wounded bull. I was pricing a 32Ggb microsd card and their price was four times what was being asked in computer retail stores. And that was fora DSE branded microsd, so we don't know what shitty, cheapass knockoff brand it was, versus name brand microsds from the computer retailers.

They will soon disappear as private equity firms have a tendency to asset strip then leave the bare bones to decompose.

I would have sent him one...

Of course, it might not be assembled, the board may not have any circuits etched on it nor artwork related to the location of components, no firmware loaded and a brief note saying "Some assembly required."

Hmmmmm, I wonder...

Does anyone think that the Aussies will find a martian capable of helping them win more than one gold medal at The O Games?

I wonder how long.....

it will be before Apple slams the roof on their walls, turning the garden into a mushroom factory, forcing their vict^H^H^H^Hcustomers to buy all the software through the Apple store, thus ensuring a guaranteed income stream from the 30% they force the sellers to fork over.

Thak smeg that I have managed to avoid being sucked in by the shiny, thus being able to chose what I install on my computer, rather than having my choice limited by a monopolostic, avaricious company hell bent on forcing everyone to do it the way the company want.

Freedom of choice

is what I got

Freedom of choice

is what I want

No surprise

Now that the Southern Cross monopoly is threatened, they suddenly find the ability to increase the capacity and dramatically reduce the price. There is no real surprise in this. New Zeland saw the same thing when the Telecom New Zealand, infamous in New Zeland for some of their business practices and their CEO admitting that Telecom used used "confusion" to keep prices up, monopoly on broadband and PSTN services was removed. Speeds got better, data caps were raised. Now the same thing is happening with Southern Cross. And not surprisingly, Telecom New Zealand is a 50% shareholder in the Southern Cross consortium. Co-incidence? I will leave the reader to think on that one.

Comet?

I though airlines has stopped flying those things long ago.

I was very sad to hear that she had lost her battle with cancer.

She was one of my first crushes once I became aware of the delights of the opposite sex..

She will be sadly missed by a lot of us Dr Who fans.

R.I.P. Elisabeth.

Sweet as, bro!

Bottoms up to you pommy gits for finally recognising the best part of the world is in the southern hemisphere although the bit just off to the west is not quite as good, although they are almost as good at rugby and rugby league.

And I agree about the bogan icon

Yet another reason not to buy Apple crap

The phone you can't use as a phone. Brilliant idea there,. Steviepoos.

Time for a new catchphrase

How about "It may have hung but it didn't crash", or "It just works... when it wants to".

Why am I not surprised.

A dodgy guy looking to control the media and shape the news so that it reflects his warped sense of "unbiased" reporting sucking up to someone hellbent on controlling every little thing people do on his overpriced, overhyped hardware.

Why does this not surprise me and also make my spine quiver?

Let's see,,,

WPA2 security enabled - Priceless and enabled.

63 character key of non-consecutive A-Z, a-z,0-9, !@#$%^&*()_+-={}|[]\:";'<>?,./ - Priceless and enabled.

SSID not being broadcast - Priceless and enabled!

For everything else, you got snooped!

Resistance is fultile..

You will be assimilated. Your distinctiveness will be eliminated and you will become mindless drones like us.

All hail Steven Jobs

Dell, doing something to disadvantage their customers?

Surely not!

It is not as if they are having to move to a bricks and mortar sales method due to falling turnover or anything like that and it is not as if this wqill generate extra income for them by forcingt people to buy overpriced drives because there is a little Dell logo on it.

Oh, wait, never mind. I forgot who we are talking about here. All this will do is drive customers away from Dell even more, due in no small part toi the normal Dell approach to customer service, in this case being none.

A bit fat fail

The IPad is a fail. It is nothing more than a oversized, overpriced IPod Touch. So much for the "it will change computing forever" bullshit hype.

No web cam, no USB, no SD card slot, no ethernet, no multitasking, no Ogg Vorbis, no FLAC. WTF were Apple thinking?

And so much for "web pages as they were meant to be seen". More like web pages seen as Jobsientology thinks you should see them.

And is that a trademark lawsuit I see coming over the horizon, given how many items there are out there called iPad? Poor research again, Apple.

No doubt, however, the Apple fanniboys will be crawling all over this, posing with then in the street.

What else do you expect?

It is a c-rap "artist". They are all a bunch of talentless wannabes on the far left of the IQ bell curve.

RIP Mr Woodward

Yet another great actor has died, reducing the quality of the pool to a much lower level of idiocy, banality and lack of greativity, which, alas, tends to reflect the idiocy, banality and lack of creativity of the movie and TV industry in general.

Rest well, sir. You shall be sorely missed.

Finally, a use forthe Rickroll

Using to humiliate Jobsientologists. Whas a shzame it didn't set an alarm that played that song every 15 minutes. That would cause a lot of crushed imaposerPhones

It just works

your data into nothingness that is.

Just gotta say way to go there guys. Just glad my PC doesn't chew my data up because I log into an account.

This is yet more proof that some humans are incredibly stupid

Unfortunately this is just more proof that there are far too many people that buy into the bullshit that these modern day snakeoil salesmen flog off. People would rather believe mystical mumbo-jumbo rather than doing a rigorous study of independently verifiable, uip to date infomation.
