Re: Microsoft 7/8 best alternative to IOS
My wife is constantly bugging me about shit that just doesn't work on her iphone.
And when she needs to make a phonecall or look something up on the internet, she usually grabs my WP (Lumia 900)

I'm not saying superhero movies aren't passable entertainment... just that they are mass produced crap.

Re: Star Wars The Old Republic Coordination Station
I started playing it again last week.
Since I never went through any of the empire storylines, I picked up playing my bounty hunter.
Harbinger always had a pretty healthy population but since the server merge, it's just packed.
Like Kyou said, it's a solid game... totally worth the $15/month.

I take anything Gabe Newell says about MS with a grain of salt.
If Windows8 is really that bad, gamers will just stick with Windows7.
You're not going to see anything more than a trickle of gamers dumping windows in favour of Linux if they make Steam for Linux.
