I've been trying-out the Logitech M555b mouse for a week, and I have no complaints. Hyper-fast scrolling, sleek design, and smooth performance. Not the most ergonomic mouse, but for a laptop mouse portability is more important, and this mouse fits that bill.
Bell sucks balls. Not even the Pre could convince me to sign a contract under Bell.
Was the trailer CGI? If yes then they could have another Killzone 2 trailer fiasco. If it is in-game, then WOW!!! that game looks amazing (even better than Crysis)!
Once again, we see legitimate PC gamers get screwed by crappy DRM while pirates continue to crack their protection and play the games with more freedom than legitimate PC gamers. It's time for EA to realize that there is no such thing as piracy-proof DRM, and instead of continuing futile attempts to stop pirates with DRM that further screws legitimate PC gamers, offer features that make the game worthwhile to purchase. This system seems to have worked well for Steam, so it could work well for EA too.

Thanks for your meaningful input in this discussion.

It's obvious what's happening here. Microsoft originally wanted a deal in good faith with Yahoo's board, and reportedly were even willing to add more money to the original 33$ per share deal to keep things in good faith. I think most of us can agree that was a generous offer. However, in an act of sheer stupidity/arrogance Yahoo's board rejected the deal. They were asking for a lot more money than Microsoft was willing to pay, and Yahoo has a pretty potent poison pill (greater collaboration with Google) to sour a hostile takeover. So, since the good faith approach has failed, Microsoft is going to plan B: pull the offer and let the shareholders replace Yahoo's board with people who are willing to let Microsoft buy Yahoo. We're already seeing the set pieces for that coming together, especially with Carl Icahn now leading the charge. So unless Yahoo has a really great product or service they're working on that'll substantially increase the value of the company to were it would have made sense for them to reject Microsoft's offer (my bet is no), the board will be ousted and the deal will go through.
I think I just lost faith in mankind.
Sony never had an exclusive deal for GTA4, and Jack Tretton stated the PS3 exclusive game he announced being developed by Rockstar is not L.A. Noire.
One of the rumors I've heard is that she's a game developer in Rockstar, so I guess there could be credence in this rumor. Still, she hasn't shown to have much accuracy in-terms of first-party Sony games (i.e. she claimed Sony would show Killzone 2 at GDC).
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"With all the new multitouch capable monitors coming out, which one is the best? With the release of Windows 7 I really want a touchscreen monitor for my desktop. I'm looking to get a Full HD monitor that supports multitouch and can still look great during gaming and movies. Which one has the best specs for the price?"
