Apple Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" Review
winsupersite.com: allow me to make a confession that may surprise you. I've been a Mac fan my entire life. Back in 1987, when my house burned down after a Christmas tree mishap I'd rather not detail at the moment, I needed to replace my crispy Commodore 64 set up with a more modern system. I originally wanted an Amiga, but alas, the local Commodore dealer didn't offer financing. The local Apple dealer did, however, and after figuring out how much I wanted to spend (an exorbitant amount even by today's standards), I arrived at two choices: An Apple IIGS with a color display, 768 KB (not MB) of RAM, one 5.25-inch floppy drive, one 3.5-inch floppy drive, and an Image Writer II printer, or a black-and-white Mac Plus with 1 MB of RAM.
Although I don't have a mac I still find mac's intresting... it's like from another world. ;)

I utterly loathe and despise how almost every single aspect of american culture is geared towards selling me something. I read an article where they are going to have advertising in video games now. Will it bring the price of the games down? No fucking way. So now kids will pay $50 to be advertised to. And how much does label clothing cost so that you can walk around as a fucking billboard? You pay them for your body to advertise for them. They should be paying us to wear their cheap made-by-malaysian-children shit. And try to take a walk or eat or go to the bathroom without having some fucking advertisement in your face. They put ads in menus now! How much merch does that actually sell!?!?! I honestly consider moving to another country just so I can generally exist without a sales pitch being forced into my consciousness.

Next Xbox for $299?
Seatlepi: Following up on the MTV/Xbox news, Goldman Sachs predicts in a research note today that the next-generation Xbox could be released as early as October or November at a retail price of "perhaps about $249-$299."
