Well I've decided to get a PS3 instead of X-Box 360. I figure I'll save like $250 over the next 5 years on online gaming fees. I was going to use that money to buy like 250 cans of Colt 45 but I have yet to upgade to vista and since microsoft won't be supporting XP for much longer I'm gonna have to upgrade. 

Thank you for the notification. I will forward it over to Microsoft for you so they can know they just lost another celebrity endorsement to Sony, but you will promote their Vista service like you promote the cool side of the pillow.

 

So you're a flipper too huh?

 



Tease.

Good move. Online should be free anyways.

Absolutely true. Online SHOULD be free! Damn that Cablevision for charging me $33 a month for online. They should just give it to me because I deserve it!

@Squilliam-I would have totally made a rock solid joke in response to you but I don't have the damnedest idea about what you just said. Flipper?

As in you flip the pillow when you can't sleep so your face is resting on the cool side.

 



Tease.

Funny all the new posters that keep telling us (often on the Microsoft forum) that they decided to get a PS3 instead of a 360. I should go post on the Sony forum how it's great to have Tales of Vesperia and Star Ocean 4 (of course I won't do it).

Btw, Vista fucking sucks, trust me.



How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...

You my friend are a genius...much like myself... I applied the same concept to buying toilet paper. I figured I'd save like $700 over the next 5 years on toilet paper by just using my barehand instead. My barehand is free, it should always be free.

Vista's good, took me a while to get used to it but I like, and it runs surprisnigly fast on my laptop with less then 1 GB of ram so...



vista is ok if you have new hardware, but if you have a older computer with less than 1gb ram and a slow cpu/gfx then beter stay away for it.
on my computer (athlon x2 5000+, 4gb ram, ati 2600xt) the switch to vista 64bit even brought some performance increases in some games, and i did not notice any games that lost performance. (and the bonus is that i finally can use all of my 4gb ram and not just slightly over 3gb)

HOLY ****, I just laughed my ass off.  And, in fact, you are quite brilliant.
