Look at this, Color Hiptops in Europe. Son of a bitch. The main thing I want in a screen this small is legibility, and the Hiptop has that, but God Damn if I don't like colors.

Sheesh

Okay, so apparently we helped destroy the Gamer Tag Database. Fabulous. Before that, we (I suppose I should say you) reamed The Visual Thesaurus, the most staggering website of our time. Eventually, someone will have to invent a word for this phenomenon.

Dear Diary,

80G Striped Raid Array = HOT!

Jesus, when I ask you guys your opinions on PC’s I fucking get your opinions on PC’s. After reading well over a thousand e-mails on the subject I came away with some really good ideas about what should be in my next rig. Thank you to everyone who wrote in with your advice. I have decided to stick with a PC and I am going to have the same place that built my current machine build my new one. The guys over at Two Geeks Computers did a great job on this one so I see no reason to switch to someone new now. I have nailed down the specs and my new machine should arrive sometime next week. I’ll give you all a full report when it shows up.

Wow

Check out Gamespot's review of Dark Cloud 2 and tell me that don't sound mighty fine. I thought the first one had some good ideas that didn't always gel right, and it sounds as though my hopes were not misspent on the sequel.

I've got a cute little press release here from Microsoft that says the two new mechs and two new maps we were promised should be here on Thursday. Huzzah!

I have talked to quite a few people today about the Acer Tablet PC’s, including Acer Technical support. I will say first that I love the Tablet PC format, it has really changed the way I work. That having been said I think I probably picked the wrong model. This kind of shit just happens when you are a new technology whore like I am.

Tablet PC talk

Speaking of Tablet PC's, I have been meaning to link to this site for a long time. It's a great source for Tablet PC news. If you have one already or want one check it out.

Thank God (Re: GBA SP)

Travis just dropped us a line and said the power adapter works just fine here - I guess it even says so right on it.

Daredevil

By Gabe – February 17, 2003

So I went and Saw Daredevil yesterday. I thought it was pretty good but I think that is only because I am a pretty big Daredevil fan. This movie is what Daredevil would be like if it was a television show on the WB. Silly special effects and poorly produced fight sequences. I actually found myself enjoying the sequences with Matt Murdock more than those with Daredevil. I am not a big Ben Affleck fan or anything but the banter between him and Foggy Nelson, his partner was really good stuff. It never felt forced or rehearsed like every other bit of dialogue in the film.

Today's strip may steer you wrong, as I am only messing with my associate Gabriel and not giving him factual data. I suffered very little over the course of the movie, and (in fact) rather enjoyed many parts. I was able to see it on Valentine's Day, yes, but that isn't to say I saw it with Brenna. She might vote pro-geek in an election, but she's not a member of the party. It is as though she's come to terms with some disease I have.
