    If you think that's cheating, the challenging aspect of this one is drawing something solely consistent of perfect horizontal and vertical lines, making it the exact opposite of the original. #etchasketch

    This was covered way back in 2006! I remember it 'cause it was one of the first posts I noticed when joining this site. Either way, I still love it.

    In reply to Crunchpad Lives, and So Does the Ambiguous Price Tag: $300 to $400
    Crunchpad was dead when they tried for an extremely niche product and didn't just release it right off the bat.

    They may have picked up a couple of hundred sales at one point but now the concept of a fully functional multitouch tablet is just around the corner. I'm not blowing $400 on something to browse the web on. #crunchpad

    I'm pretty sure that there are already rumors of the first software update to be pushed out in a month. Hopefully it will fix them.

    I'm not sure if it's just me but I think the Droid v iPhone debate had me favoring Mike over anyone else.

    People are quick to call things dead (Hip-Hop is dead, Rock is Dead etc.) and crown people victors. Nokia is still very much in the game, they are losing ground for sure but they are still the number 1 phone maker in the world. They better shift gears to keep that spot but you can't call them dead just because Apple's iPhone is selling extremely well (I mean EXTREMELY well).

    But with Droid and iPhone, Mike was pointing out the strengths of the core phone while everyone else was talking about the iPhone's community. Comparing the Android Facebook App to the iPhone Facebook App has nothing really to do with Google and Apple, but more so their community. The iPhone has a strong community, partly why I have one, and Android's community is slowly but surely rising. When comparing the phones, Apples to Apples, you compare the core, not the extended use. Not to say that it should be dismissed but they two different things. Compare the phone to the phone, then the community to the community. #crunchpad

    @Software_Goddess: Lack of trust. That's why we're calling in Detective Loftus from the bunko squad. He'll spring into action and put this case to bed. Let's just hope he doesn't have to sleep on it before the solution comes to him. #furniture

    In reply to AMD Phenom II Breaks 7GHz Barrier
    While impressive from an engineering point of view (and a sheer "how badass can we get?" POV), the fact that they needed to use liquid helium to run the cpu at 7 GHz is more proof that we're heading for a massively multicore future - at least until another set of materials to replace silicon and aluminium gets in widespread use and which can run faster without getting hotter. I think we'll see 80-core x86 chips first, though.

    And daqman - I can sympathize! I worked in a plasma physics lab in college, and we used a lot of liquid nitrogen and helium both, and while liquid nitrogen was fun (a colleague froze a slug at one point, and I took a thermos back to a party to pour into a punch-bowl, etc), the liquid helium was tough to work with. Not to mention time-consuming, since filling a dewar meant a *massive* amount of super-cold "fog" coming out of that flexible metal pipe from the big tank, and then air was always freezing onto the rim of the dewar (and I got some pink skin a few times, but never actual frostbite, doh!)
