SourceeBay is the breeding ground of idiots and they deserve to lose all their money. Check the bidding history if you want. xP
Should've read the description first!

Most of the bids are from people with little or no feedback, not registered any more, or negative...odd.

o.O there's a huge idiot out there..maybe this is their way of wasting money..or somehow they won't pay..besides 40 bids..they got about 31,605 hits..but it could be faked..
Fury OD - October 4, 2005 02:08 PM (GMT)
Yea, maby it is fake....Or maby not....*looks around to see who haves box*

*sighs*
Check the winner's feedback. You could see that he didn't pay for it because he didn't pay and got a neg feedback. xP
The guy is Spanish too (I think..).

Theres so many hits because this auction is distributed to other sites quickly so we could laugh at their moronic actions. I don't think its fake, I think its a serious case of coindicidental idiocy. :D

I think, you are right about that...
ZeRoRaVeN - October 6, 2005 11:42 PM (GMT)
I don't know...there's probably stupid enough people out there but this stupid? but it's obviously all just a joke..it was always one..
I could create a new ebay account and paypal account without verifying a single thing..illegal sure but it's possible..and it would be fake and I wouldn't lose anything..but get good laughs..
Fury OD - October 6, 2005 11:51 PM (GMT)
I should cell my gameboy advance SP box for $50.00...... Maby, some idiot will acualy buy it... :lol:
ZeRoRaVeN - October 7, 2005 01:53 AM (GMT)
...and never pay for it.
I should sell my ipod photo, I hated when apple turned the photos into regular ipods..then it lost the photo designation...waa I spent so much for something that's really cheaply priced now! Since I replaced it recently I left it in the plastic covering..and I scratched off all the don't steal stuff, except for the "steal music" so now it says "steal music" on my ipod...yay..ipod video is probably coming out next week..and I want it..
Fury OD - October 8, 2005 02:31 AM (GMT)
Naa, I'll whait untill theres a TV/ internet Ipod...now that would be cool....*whaits 500 years*

Good luck taking credit card payments without verifying your PayPal account. Heck, I think a lot of eBay stuff wants a credit card or the like now...
ZeRoRaVeN - October 8, 2005 04:38 PM (GMT)
^I didn't mean taking, I meant giving..I could be one of those idiots and bid for the item..and never pay..
@Fury OD get a PSP...I know a friend who has one...he can go online and all that stuff...now how to crack my school's wireless internet network to get in...it's WEP anyway..should be a clinch..if we had a wireless laptop...

shoot i want a psp. i not that rich to afford one though. what i woudle buy for a million dollars is a house, car, psp, ps3, x-box 360, games, ipods, porta potty, laptop, clothes, shoes, toys, and stippers. yep tHATS ALL I NEED IN LIFE. B)
Fury OD - October 24, 2005 10:50 PM (GMT)
<_< This is one of the gulibles who would buy that psp box^
mc__ - October 24, 2005 11:33 PM (GMT)
i recon. I'd never buy a psp... unless they were going for about 10 bucks or so.
Just isn't a smart way to spend your money. What i find especially funny is all these people who are going to pay the extreme amounts of money that the ps3 is gunna cost when it first comes out... how sad.
Especially when you consider that the revolution has a stronger GFX system straight-out and a debatedly stronger CPU also (2.57 GHZ PPC compared to a multicore'd 1.7ghz x86)... all for a much more modest price tag. If i were to buy any new games machine it'd be a Nintendo revolution when it actualey comes out.
I wouldn't bother with any others... better off using a PC to be honest.
And how much does a the PSP cost? You can get totally kcikarse laptops secodn hand for about $600AU thesedays... much better than a PSP in my humble opinion.... about 100 times better. Not just gaming potential but the fact that you can run any software... even program your own... and you won't need to mess around with frimware and you can have a good OS installed on it (GNU/Linux or freeBSD) and the CPU is a widely supported platfrom with tonnes of apps avaliable etc.
Makes a psp look like a bit of a rip off to me. Just think about it. Mind you i'd still take one if they were being given out for free (or close to it). :D

First you're being unfair, you're comparing apples to oranges. A PSP is meant to be a portable device and ps3 as a nonmobile device, as it isn't not designed for you to turn on on the subway and play.
Of course there is going to be a price differrence, and while yes the PSP is a bit expensive, you're paying portability here.

Also you're again comparing apples to oranges, a multicore system is NOT the same has a single core system. In many cases today multicore system are at a lower processing speed, and considering it's also a 64 bit [x64] I think they are both comparable. The multicore might actually give the PS3 the advantage, looking at your stats I'll say PS3 is more powerful actually. Raw processing power isn't all that, a multicore will allow faster and more smoother game rendering and the 64-bit will allow it to address even more memory.
You're only looking at raw power and not the other specifications, I'm not PS3 fan, and frankly yes I do agree on one thing: everyone's better off using a computer. You can argue that the standard-near same specifications on consoles will ensure game compatiability, but at what cost? Buying a computer-priced machine just for the games?
I realize the PS3 and xbox 360 are going to be meant to be "media hubs" but any savy computer person (which many of us are not) can put one together at a better price and more flexibility.
In the end I feel we are moving backwards by trying to improve the consoles while the computers are the real thing to go in the future. It's like trying to make a computer imatation, it amazes me.

Yeah, although i suppose that from a manufacturers point of view games are a lot more managable on the console platform.
In the end if everyone plays games on consoles instead of on computers, even though piracy would still be pretty high, the big companies would make more money as it is a LOT harder to get illegal copies for your console games than it is for pc (which still isn't all
that hard really).
It would also allow them to have unprecidented DRM capabilities, but it looks as if microsoft is heading that way on the pc front anyway (unfortunately many hardware vendors are backing them too).

| Additionally, AMT also features what Intel calls "IDE redirection" which will allow administrators to remotely enable, disable or format or configure individual drives and reload operating systems and software from remote locations, again independent of operating systems. Both AMT and IDE control are enabled by a new network interface controller. |
micrososft are evil-erThe scariest thing is that this is aimed for the PC world. Maybe Sun Microsystems will market their SPARC cpu's for the desktop world once this DRM stuff starts to take hold.
sparc's are a lot more powerful anyway, outclassing PPMs the way that PPMs outclass x86, but they're too damn expensive, and as far as i know only the various free operating systems (solaris obviously, linux bsd etc) work on them along with apache + star office, maybe open office, but as for normal programs i don't know if theres much support.
It just seems that in the future games and drm are going to go hand in hand, and a system without drm will also be mostly without games...
