I can cut my cable TV anytime, but I can never say the same for my Internet connection.

Jobs health condition does have an impact on Apple's price. But reaching 200 in 2008 is a bit far fetch.

This will take another 10 years to debate this issue.

Oil is falling below $120 now.

DMMc, thanks for the tips.

There are already too many music download services out there. Microsoft, Napster, Apple, Amazon, Walmart.... the list is long. And the amount of money thrown into this industry is huge now. If Dell enters this market, it is going to be bloody. But then they are definitely qualified, since they own a huge hardware distribution channel.

I thought it would be a starwars light saber game. If Lucas Arts decides to release a light saber game, I might get a wii.

Seems like China is receiving a lot of pressure from Western media in terms of human rights, terrorism, and pollution. I am not sure the risk is as high as the media portrays.

Let's hope it is not going to rain on the day of the opening cermoney. Maybe raining BEFORE the opening ceremony is a good idea, because it will clear the air in the city.

Oil prices are cooling off:

I will keep using Cuil for another week, and then decide if I should give it a better rating. For now, I think it is not that accurate.

No, don't have wii. And won't get it even if I have one. There are too many accessories to buy.

Sure. As long as I can turn the feature on or off at will.

I come here to be number 1 Ziibo. You are my first target goal

Ballmer just announced MSFT is done pursuing the Yahoo deal. Yahoo stock will fall in the short term. The market won't react to this well.

Just checked out Knol. It is very nice. And most articles are of very high quality. In fact it is closer to traditional encyclopedia articles compared to wikipedia. However, I am not how Knol will handle two articles by two different authors on the same subject. Are they going to favor one over the other based on author's popularity?

If I am the reader, I probably don't want to read two articles about the same subject twice.

Always a depressing subject. I say it remains stable.

I find OpenID a bit difficult to use. First, the user name is long, second, I have to manage my account on another OpenID server. I guess it will be worth the effort if most of the sites use OpenID.

Maybe ZiiTrend can use it some day.

Here is some interesting discussion about CMOS in G10:

I agree that it makes little sense to sacrifice the DSLR sales by making G10 too powerful.

Hancock is my second choice too. Maybe I will watch it next week. Otherwise, I will wait for the DVD release.
