Nokia's New Luxury Cell Phones

// January 22nd, 2002 // Comments Off // Tech

I like the design ok, but man. Why? Will people actually buy these. What happens if you drop it, or leave it lying around. I guess if you’ve got the bucks to buy one of these, the answer is: buy another.

I rented All Star Baseball 2002 by Acclaim as everything I’ve read thus far puts it ahead of the other two baseball sims available on the market, but let’s hope the reviews I’ve read were wrong, because there’s not much here that I liked about the game.

Ok, Microsoft has put out around 6 versions of DOS, Windows through 3.11, Win 95, 98, ME, NT through 4.0, 2000 and XP. Why is Gates just now making security a top focus. All those OS’s since 3.11 have had networking/WAN support.

What Kevin Smith Character Are You?

Looks like I’m brodie from Mallrats.

You have a genius intellect and an awesome sense of humor. You can sarcastically put someone in their place without batting an eye. Your only problems seem to be that you have trouble acknowledging your true feelings and you may use your humor as a defense to hide what you are really feeling. But, your godliness overpowers any insignificant flaws you may have. Even if you tend to pass gas during very inconvenient moments.
