As easy as dropping a file onto an SD card to create a buffer overflow & install BooMii, DVDX, The Homebrew Channel? |

Good guess. It's Polish. You win one point. The language you're using seems to be Esperanto or Portuguese. Maybe Spanish. Honestly, though, I don't have a clue what you're saying, or what language you're saying it in. "Опростите, Ма&... |

Born in 1991, started using AOL (which was at the time on the world wide web) when I was 6, so in 1997. |

I once had my hands on a DVD emulation cab of it at a certain famous video arcade on the Santa Cruz boardwalk, ripped from the laserdisc. Now that MAME emulates it, I'll be sure to put it on my cabinet once I eventually swap the mobos in it... |

You just described almost every console since the Playstation :x And yet, the Wii seems to have more shovelware than most other consoles, due to most third-party developers not taking it seriously. Actually it's more that the Wii is the cheapest & most profitable platform to develop on. It re-u... |

I use Windows 7 on my main rig due to my wifi driver not working even with ndiswrapper. Once I get a wifi card that doesn't suck, I'll start depricating my NTFS partition (but will likely still keep it installed for a few programs)
Ubuntu runs on my laptop. |

Has anyone else thought about &/or done this? It seems like a fun way to waste my time in a productive manRAR, it just needs a good cash investment in the data line & server(s) hardware.
Any thoughts? |

I have been trying to install 7 on my desktop for a while now... it keeps hanging during the install... Are you sure it's hanging & not just taking forever? When I installed it in a vm, it took me no more than 1/2 an hour, but upgrading from a fresh vista install (I was streamlining an XP upgra... |

Personally, I can't stand the Wii. I can't think of 5 games on it that I'd want to play. The Wii is only good if you have a group of people that you want to play causal games with. If you want games with great stories, great graphics, and moving gameplay, get a 360 or PS3. Or get Super Mario Galaxy... |

Invest $300 in a Wii with Wii Sports Resort (or just the Wiimotionplus for $25)
It's embarrassingly easy to get homebrew software running on the Wii, & I wouldn't blame you if you accidentally 'backed up' a good number of ISO's onto an external HDD & hooked it to the Wii.. |

Trying out voice recognition, still a little buggy but maybe with a little training it can not suck.
OMG I just noticed the compatibility option to kill aero! Now I can play games in not-sucky mode w/o killing aero permanently! Yay! |

Is anyone else running it?
I ran Vista Ultimate (on a laptop with exactly the same specs) before I switched to Ubuntu, & I have to say I'm surprised by the quality! No crap, no junk, though I must say there still is an excess of services that don't need to exist in RAM 24/7... |
