I'll not say that the iPod is a work of genius by a stretch (and iTunes is absolute crap) but I've never had any problems the first few years of owning one, and I drop mine, jog with them, sweat on them, and all kinds of shit. That, and the fact that half the planet has one.

Downloaded an update 3 days ago this must have been it. No problems on my end but then again I'm on xbox number 3.......

Really not impressed by that halo wars demo.

+1. I wasn't expecting much, though. Here's hoping I can afford a new laptop by the time Starcraft 2 arrives.

Good thing then that the customers forgive Microsoft (at least that's what Micorsoft says):

And the sad thing is, he's absolutely right.

Ya know...I wasn't looking forward to it, but I liked the demo. Two reasons: 1.) You can run over enemies with Warthogs. 2.) Alt-firing with Marines produces a satisying rain of grenades. Then again, I don't normally like RTS or turn-based strategy games.
