Oct 23rd 2009 11:11AM Also microsoft has been busy merging all threads into one to organize the issue, so this is not just one thread.

Oct 23rd 2009 11:02AM Wow, interesting point there, I actually unplugged everything but the drive I'm installing to, which was raid0 and I'm glad I did that now that I've read your comment, good job on figuring that one out!

Oct 23rd 2009 11:00AM Did you see how long that "one thread was" And it was happening to EVERYONE who has 32 bit and decided to get the 64 bit version, so it's not blown out of proportion at all, you are just not understanding things.

Oct 23rd 2009 10:58AM Gotta love the comments that go "no issues here" without reading that issue only happens if you are on 32 bit system trying to extract the 64 bit version.

Bargain hunters make Vizio LCDs most popular in US -- for now {Engadget}

May 8th 2009 8:54AM I think Vizio is great for first time HDTV buyers. If you had a big old TV, and get HDTV for the first time, and also get HDTV programming, the quality is so different that you will be satisfied with a Vizio. I'm sure all will agree that there isn't as much difference going from cheap Vizio 47 inch to Sony 47 inch comparing to going from 32 inch big old box to Vizio 47 inch LCD HDTV for the first time.

When I got my 47 Vizio, 47 inch Sony and Sharp HDTVs were in $2200 range, I paid $1650 after coupon at Costco over 2 years ago.

When I consider upgrading my Vizio to something bigger in future, I will have to shop around more this time as I won't be looking for the cheapest thing anymore, and also the price difference between Vizio and other quality brands have shrunk especially in the 32~47 inch range. Once you go up to 52 inch 120Hz you start to see a bigger difference.

By the way, one great thing about getting Vizios (or any other TV) from Costco is that you get 2 year warranty too instead of the standard 1 year. If you think about it, that in itself pays for the $50 annual Costco membership.

This Mii is a criminal {Engadget}

Feb 8th 2009 6:05PM 1. Old news.
2. If you bothered to do some fact checking, you will learn that this seems to be a prank. On the original link there is update at the bottom that says they've contacted the authorities about the sign and
1. They do not usually create a sketch for hit and run cases
2. They would have not used Mii

So this is just a prank and nothing more (the link states that the image is too good to be photoshopped)
