If you and mm are going to be that way about it, I\'ll say the same and throw in the DC along with the other 3. Last time I thought, WOW! consoles have come along way! was seeing Tomb Raider for the first time over 6 years ago.

The game element will always be a matter of taste. Can\'t say that I share yours

There is no reason to hate ms or sony. Ppl are jealous of Bill gates because the guy has more money than they could ever imagine and they need to get over it.

I could see why ppl would hate nintendo the way they did the developers. But that was a long time ago.

no, he just lied, cheated, and stole the entire way to the top
and provided absolutly no innovation for the PC industry other then stealing..

lol, that makes me wonder
why is it such a big deal if we copy Windows, when he stole it himself?

Stop the personal attacks please.  It\'s really not necessary.  He asked a simple question, not for an evaluation of his character or past.

Personal attacks against whom? Members or all people?

Does that include personal attacks against Bill Gates?
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Just as I read your insult gun comment mm, I just so happened to be watching The Terminator on DVD and a quote blared right from my TV at that moment:

"F*ck you Asshole." -AS

omg, brilliant. :)

There are some people who believe that because Bill Gates is rich and for the most part, we are not, that is just reason for us to bash him and it is our only reason.  However, jealousy is not any reason to bash Bill Gates.  If jealousy was the culprit, then Walmart would be recieving just as many bashes as any other person or chain, but the owner does not, even though he is richer than Bill Gates at the moment.

Why do we bash Gates and not the Walmart guy?

Walmart offers us products at rock bottom prices that can\'t go wrong.  It\'s available in lots of places nationwide and its a place we don\'t mind shopping at.  In contrast, Microsoft offers a mediocre product at a set price full of quality control issues.  The problem isn\'t that Bill Gates is rich, the problem is that the products we need (or are forced to use) need to meet standards that we are paying for.  Sure, no one is twisting our arm to use office, or windows, but just see how many games out there support other OS\'s or systems as quickly as they do Windows.  It\'s a lack of options that keeps me a windows user and it sucks honestly and I don\'t like MS for that.  Gates put this policy forward so he gets plenty of slack for it.

Walmart owner says cheap items with lots of quality and variety and he makes it the best chain out there... How can I hate the guy or the company?  Contrasts are beautiful. :)

Ok, fair enough...

Let\'s hope the zero tolerance policy is enforced.

Then again, I\'d like to punch the Walmart guy once or twice in the stomach.

But that might just be me. ;]

Hey you know what?

Change \'Walmart owner\' to \'Hiroshi Yamauchi\' and it still works... hmmm...

Well, except for the beautiful part.  Yamauchi is ugly. :)

If you don\'t like MS go buy a Mac. Buy nothing from MS and convice others to do the same and put them out of business.

Who cares anymore anyway?

BTW, this is in no way an attack on any one person on this board.

I\'m having a rotten week if you can\'t tell.
