Let I remind you that the SW TV show will probably have no pilot or audience testing, as no network would refuse to air it no matter how awful it is. I mean, the first episode will probably break all records of viewers. So be prepared for some crapy written and acted TV show filled with made-for-TV fake CGI scenes.

Let's see if I can think of good examples, bad movies remade into god movies...

"Beau Geste", the 1939 version is way better than the crappy silent film one
Same for "Ben Hur", the Chalrton Heston one compared to the old one
"Thomas Crown Affair", I think the remake is better than the original

Hmn.... Uh... Can't think of any other example right now.

I would recomend Norton Internet Security, but I don't know how much it costs (my internet provider gives free copies for its users). I had some bad moments with ZoneAlarm and Pandasoft. Also, try getting Microsoft's beta Spyware software, it's actually good, and it's free so far.

WHY do people program this virus/spyware things! It's only porpouse is to make things difficult and to make us lose money and time, the programmer profits nothing with it, he indirectly loses too...!

I don't care much about hair color, I tend to look into other things in women, such as her smile, her eyes, her body... And of course her personallity, her mind, that's my priority.

Maybe if we build a biodome in a spaceship the third generation born in the biodome would be able to get there. And one year later we would know about it...

On the positive side, I picked up Kirby's Canvas Curse for the DS, and I reccomend it to anyone who has a DS.

I played it this week, felt like Yoshi Touch and Go with new graphics... Although I could be wrong, as I've played for about 5 minutes.

I got the much antecipated (by me) Bomberman DS, I must say I expected much more. Feels like the game was rushed into completion, as it lacks some features I've read about in some early previews. The single player mode is somewhat repetitive and too simple, yet quite difficult. The multiplayer mode is not as good as the Bomberman64 one, but it's quite fun, specially if you're playing with 8 other people (as I did this weekend). I would only recomend it to die-hard bomberman fans or to anyone who gets to play in multiplayer mode very frequently.

You only drink decaf, Chaltab? Then try to drink three large cups of strong black coffee at once... It'll be some 8 to 10 hours of intense fun.

It's hard to give an opinion about that, since it depends on your personal taste. I chose the DS mostly because of it's fun factor, price, game availability (which will improve soon), backwards compatibility, and future uses for the console.

Try some coffee. Headache aspirins have caffeine on them, that's the magical ingredient.

A frozen pizza, a flavor we call over here the "Portuguesa": cheese, sliced ham, mushroom. There are usually tomatoe slices too but this one hadn't. It didn't have enough cheese I think. It ended up too hard, I had to "break" it like a cookie to eat it... I don't know what I did wrong.

Hmn, the best suggestion I could give you is to rename every "iexplorer.exe" file you find into "iexplorer.old" and use FireFox instead.

Well, seriously though, I would look into the windows register, if this thing is starting on its own it's probably there. If you find the right keys in the register you could easily take it out. There was this program that would let you see what was being read on the register and you could use it to monitor it and keep track of that keys are being accessed, but I don't remember the program's name, a google search could do the trick though.

I JUST HATE MORNINGS.

If I'm doing something good in the morning, something I enjoy or I look foward to, I have no problem in getting up early. What I dislike is waking up knowing I'm going to do something I don't enjoy, like going to the dentist, to the doctor, or working (when work is not going well). It's very hard to get out of bed when you know you'll face something you don't like, and THAT, that I hate.

Of course later, after the film was a hit and sequels could be made, the full title was added back on to later prints.

Well, from what I know GL didn't have the whole thing planned, and did not know about any episodes before ESB. He basically made up as he went along and later lied, saying he had all planned out.
