Apple should keep this up, people don’t complain as much if it’s free.
Anyway, this is the email I got as I woke up this morning detailing the free 60 days I received as thanks to waiting it out over the .Mac to MobileMe switchover, which totally didn’t bug me in the slightest.
I know it’s not their intellectual property but I really wish Hasbro thought about buying the game out from the developers rather than screwing it up for a load of people who lost their game in the process of the IP battle.

So, Microsoft is offering an almost unimaginable number for Yahoo! Things can only really go two ways as I see it; one way would be that Yahoo backs down to Microsoft and the money to avoid a shareholder rebellion and to keep most of the board of directors, the other scenario has Microsoft buying out Yahoo and [...]
The xmas stats came in, and they don’t shape up too favorably for Sony.
If you look at the chart, both the PSP and the PS3 are shaping up to be ungodly failures for Sony, whereas the Wii and the DS are proving to be the most popular consoles out at the moment. The Xbox 360 is coming [...]
A group called Devil Mountain Systems has claimed that Windows XP service pack 3 is somewhere in the range of 10% faster than service pack 2, even calling it a “must-have update”. Vista, on the other hand, looks to be covered with more DRM or something because it’s not getting any quicker. XP seems a [...]
The replacement for the Canon 5D, the 5D mark 2, looks almost certain now, thanks to a slip up on phase-one’s website, similar leaks happened before the 40d was released so this seems to be a fairly accurate way of knowing it’s coming soon. Here’s the page
