I have mixed emotions about this considering I believe W29 (like leo-j) to be borderline... slow:
The good news is I no longer own the same console as him (until I buy a PS3 next year when games start coming out...damn).
The bad news is I probably can't get away with making fun of W29 quite as much now because it will be perceived as a console thing instead of a stupidity thing.
I'm half joking, half serious.
Enjoy your new used PS3, W29.

Also, the second and third Pirates of the Caribbean movies are absolute garbage. The SF Chronicle's Mick LaSalle thinks it may be the worst movie franchise ever, beating out Hellraiser.
We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai
It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps
We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
