    I wasn't even aware they were still around. I remember getting old IBM computers running on DOS all the time as a kid before we had enough money to buy a Windows 98 computer.

    @yoshirox85: lol you make me nostalgic about the days I had an IBM.


    I played Math Blaster on Windows 3.1

    133 Mhz processor

    100 MB harddrive

    (I think I'm remembering this correctly it was around 15 years ago)

    Small typo on the sentence about the PS3 cell accidentally typed 360 again instead of saying PS3.


    Has there been a time when 1 company made the guts of every home console? I don't remember one before now.

    @MSUHitman: Doh. Fixed.


    As for the question no idea though you gotta remember IBM weren't SOLELY responsible for all three. They only contributed as part of a team to the Cell.

    In reply to IBM: World of Warcraft Is Good
    BS. WoW does not demonstrate great leadership. My roommate (whom I hate because of this game) plays this in our room literally over 12 hours a day, and while he kicks ass in the game and commands things/people, he is a loser. Leadership in an online game does not equal leadership in a career.

    @kadaj24: Whether he's a "loser" or not doesn't have anything to do with whether he can excel at a particular job once he gets one.
