This works out of the box for Mac & Windows. You do not need any driver installation. This works well for gaming in dark.

Matthew on "RE: Review: Wii Fit"

foofdawg: I live in the UK, otherwise know as "rip-off Britain" where it costs US140 to buy. The US$160 came from Amazon.com, but admittedly it was the sellers price, not the official Amazon price - they don't seem to have it. So I did get ripped off, but because I live in the UK where we always are with games hardware :-) If you want another comparison Rock Band in the UK costs you £150 for the full set (best price I've seen). That's US$300.

EVDOinfo on "RE: Review: Sierra Wireless Compass 597 from Sprint"

Excellent review! the compass 597 really rocks! most everyone will get one of these so they can provide internet access to a single computer (like laptops in the review)... but some folks need to share their EVDO with more than one computer, (or perhaps share with their iPhone or iPod Touch, via WiFi) if that sounds like something you would be interested in, then check out EVDO routers like those from Cradlepoint

foofdawg on "RE: Review: Wii Fit"

py007: Of course, getting outside and playing sports is better for you than this, but it's really intended for those that would otherwise be sitting on their couch playing video games. Personally, I've been wanting to exercise more for a while now, but living in Florida it gets pretty hot and humid, and I avoid gyms because of the sweat and germs left behind by other members. My wife worked late last night and before she got home, I spent 40 minutes doing yoga and strength training on the Wii Fit, which I never would have done otherwise. It's not meant to replace the gym or outdoors for the avid exerciser, but rather to get more idle people involved in doing something more physically active than sitting on the couch.

Forgot to mention. I also play Battlefield 1942 and that runs fine. Not going to fast or anything.

Hill-Beast on "RE: SplashTop's Instant-On Linux Desktop"

This would be a good idea for those people who only have computers for internet and email. If they shove an email client in there like Thunderbird or something, then it would mean system manufacturers can build systems for way less. They won't need hard drives or DVD-ROMs for installing stuff, it would bee all there. All you need is a cheap case, motherboard, RAM and low-end CPU. I think it's a good idea. However, put hard drive support in there and they could make a really good recovery system for if your OS dies so you can backup your stuff easily without a boot CD.

Hill-Beast on "RE: AMD gets in the GAME!"

It's just a marketing thing for idiots who can't read system specifications. It's like saying 'This food is yum' and 'This food is yummier', rather than saying 'This food contains riboflavin, gluten, traces of nuts an soy, dairy products (53%), 543kJ of energy...'. That's all. There should be a big debate over whether is good or not. There not going to shove stickers on computers saying 'low-end crap'.

warthan58 on "RE: High school science project decomposes plastic in three months"

Brilliant! A+ I love it when someone has the genius to think of a simple solution to a significant problem. There's thinking outside the box, and then there's thinking about the box itself.

monika33 on "Excel Function HELP!!!"

Can someone help me with some functions? I have 3 mortgages with amortization schedules and interest balances on each one. There is also an option to pre pay a mortgage to save on the interest. Here is my problem: How do I make the formula to tell me what to pre pay by how much each month to get the smallest total interst on all three mortgages. I would like to have the option to put in an amount (each month will vary) and the function to let me know what to pre-pay and by how much to minimize the total interest paid from all three mortgage

Waronsuckers, you are a tool. Its not only NASA and American agencies that have taken pictures of our planet and of other space images, since these organisations are in competition with each other don't you think if they could prove them wrong they would.
