I have to say, having to turn that plastic cube everywhere only adds to the frustration of spending hours trying to solve the original. A new electronic version should allow us to hack into it's global network and turn into a Borg Cube controlled by Pee Wee Herman who will no doubt use it to capture the attention of children in far-off galaxies.
On second thought, I want Pee Wee to remain an Earth-only phenomenon, so I will continue to endure the wrist pain and stick with the puzzle I have never solved without the help of Google. Technology be damned.
9 of these are horrid, terrible ideas, fueled by money crazed executives.
1 is so awesome, one wonders if it appears here only because it's awesomeness took hold of the writer's mind and forces him to add it to things it shouldn't be to just stand out even more.
Yes I'm talking about that incredible Vacuum tube chess set. It's awesome. Very awesome, and does not deserve to be on this list.
@RoboBagins: I was just going to say. That chess set is just neat and hardly a digital conversion. But, any reason to show it off is good enough for me.
I also was completely flabbergasted to see the rock, paper, scissors contraption. It actually offended my delicate nature.
What does any of this matter? I still can't upconvert my dvd's over the component cables Sony swore to me 6 years ago would be the new enduring standard. Like anyone who is tech savvy enough to dub movies off their cable box would actually order an on demand movie anyway, when they can get it for free off of the torrents. #selectableoutputcontrolmpaa
Exactly. There's no way to win. The game itself is pointless! But back at the war room, they believe you can win a nuclear war. That there can be "acceptable losses."
Apply that Faulken quote to today:

So, when is the MPAA just going to admit they don't want our money? They seem to do everything possible to cut off their revenue streams. #selectableoutputcontrolmpaa
Another reason that I am glad I don't pay for cable. I don't need anyone else controlling my stuff, I have enough issues controlling it for myself! #selectableoutputcontrolmpaa
So, I see MPAA knows or learned nothing with DRM, right?
They are trying to introduce a useless standard that will only cause damage to honest people with the excuse everyone is a potential pirate.
Lots of people won't buy it because you'd have to spend too much money, it's offensive and an abuse. And ultimately pirates will find a way around, rendering it useless and a complete waste of money.
Hurray MPAA! I see you are still keeping that douchebag image alive!
Mac image window? That's clearly a Photoshop work area on a Mac. That bottom left corner is a dead giveaway for PS. I'm having a harder time trying to figure out that if the image is at 100% why there are scroll bars in both directions. Maybe I should just press F, or will that cause the frame to fill my entire wall with grey enabling me to move my picture to where ever I want it to on the wall with my palm? #imagejpgframe

Take solace in knowing that Pee Wee is enduring some wrist pain of his own... #games

Or somebody did a really horrible crop job and the rest of the hidden canvas is white space.
I hate it when people do that.
