the new Mario and more Demon's souls

i would expect this sort of money grubbing from microsoft, but not Apple. If you think for a moment in-OS advertising is not going to appear in a paid version of the software than you're an idiot. It's already happening in video games, the Zune has whored itself out to ads while loading software... the OS is going to be no different. Christ, what a joke this industry is becoming.

dish TV on media center w/o compromises:

Step 1: buy old import FTA box for $20 off Ebay
Step 2: wire your dish reciever output to the FTA input, FTA output to Media center PC
Step 3: enjoy.

this aint rocket science, I've been doing it for years. Works great with all dish content.

wow! the rebirth of the Atari Lynx!

That drawing sure looks like the Atari Jaguar! where's Sam Tramiel when you need him?

I thing "the overpriced shack" wouldl be more honest.

I'm in! Fixing the world economy... hmmm... money seems to be the issue, so let's get rid of it. No money, everybody shares everything. Those unwilling to follow along will be forcibly moved to London, where the omnipresent British spy technologies can keep an eye on them.

God, what a snore this article is, engadget readers deserve better than this. try harder.

jeepers, this is a classic TW moment: " If you don't play nice with us you don't get to try the new toys". If there was ever a reason to bring more competition to the Rochester ( I live in Rochester ) broadband markletplace this is it. TW's incredibly greedy and juvenile response to getting caught being the onerous, overpriced ogres that they are in the marketplace makes me want to go to midtown Plaza and start selling Tshirts and hats with "FUTW" printed on them. Maybe with all the money I'd make I could actually afford their products.
