Make sure the light is red!<br><br>I was going to say "but what about Smash Bros. Brawl?". Then i realized that it too is a party game. The most awesome party game in existence, but still a party game. Kind of like Strikers Charged.<br><br>WiiFit, I am very interested in.WingMon, 24 Sep 2007 19:02:57 -0000http://farsideoftech.disqus.com/apple_air_versus_asus_eee_a_comparison/#comment-1274055The eee can have up to 2GB RAM. One thing about the Air is that you MUST have 2GB RAM. No upgradability. Also, you're stuck paying Apple price for the RAM.<br><br>You forgot batteries: One big thing that some sites mentioned was that the Air doesn't have a user-replacable battery. It can be switched by an Apple tech but that;s only for when it dies. The eee on the other hand has a user-switchable battery. I can imagine it being very useful when you;re on the road (where you will be taking these things) and need an extra battery or two. Asus is also coming out with six-cell batteries which will probably last quite a bit. The eee doesn't sleep well though; if the Air can sleep as well as a regular Macbook it'd be really, really great. I'd imagine that at some point some crazy Linux god will come out with a fix for the eee sleep issue though.<br><br>The thing about the Air is that it is the ONLy Mac "subnotebook". One of my coworkers travel a hell of a lot and needs a Mac, so he bought one yesterday. (He also buys things like airplanes and horses, so he's in a completely different market than a lot of people. Or, rather, he's in Apple's target market.) Macs do intergrate much better than Linux does in small organizations.<br><br>My take: I'd feel less guilty dropping or putting stickers on an eee.WingWed, 16 Jan 2008 22:45:35 -0000http://farsideoftech.disqus.com/the_roku_netflix_player_the_shape_of_things_to_come/#comment-1274171Well, that's because you have an awesome Internet connection. Move ten to twenty miles east and you'll get the same Real-quality streaming for everything...WingWed, 21 May 2008 09:00:17 -0000
