Episode 5: Screwing with Remote Desktop

With: Jeremy, Marshall, and Michael
(edited/recored/shownotes by: jer)
We will time our release with FLOSS "weekly"
Black 360 is coming out
(the Xbox part of M$ is across from Laser Quest in Mountain View)
Jeremy thinks GoW=overhypted, and there are no good 360 games
GTA has a lot of crap to do, and R&C:3 needs 2 plays, and Zelda:OoT in 3hrs=NERD!!!!!
Jeremy loves everything Nintendo...except: Zelda, and 3d Metroid Games
123k is high for Michael, Jeremy its 200k+ (in Quinn)
Ratchet & Clank 4: (DEADLOCK DOESN'T COUNT!!) looks amazing, the reason for Jeremy to get a ps3. Everyone hopes sony pulls a Sega.
$500, too much for the iPhone
Jeremy has Sprint, and Michael is getting a non-iPhone cellphone. (maybe from IMG?)
Jeremy would have bought peggle, but there is no mac version
Michael rants about skype.
Club Penguin: Not a Tux Game
Ubuntu 7.04: STILL NO WIFI DRIVER. But, they have an amazing, as-good-as OS X wifi browser.
Michael has a 64 bit Core 2, and a !copy! of Remote Desktop.
Jeremy Likes VMware Fusion, as its free. But he doesn't trust FAT 32.
The Apple TV has been hacked., and its $300, not $250 as Jeremy thought

HERE COMES MARSHALL!

Marshall has content:
C&C 3: Tiberium Wars...looks cool, but I don't play RTSs
Marshal likes Evil Genius. We got all the info about his game from wikipedia
RCT3:Soaked is out for mac, Jeremy isn't going to buy it.
Michael has no use for linux.
Marshall built a medieval thingy. and Michael is screwing with apple remote desktop (and he did an amazing voice of his sister)
Jeremy needs to install FCS (last, hopefully!, edit in GB), and explain it (in sexual terms!)
Michael hates Merlin, and thinks he's gay. (but, he has wife)
Jeremy thinks he is as stupid as us.
Jeremy first thought Michael meant the cable box, then the firewire port on the back of the cable box.
HDMI= High-Definition Multimedia Interface
Skype=cool, but high chance of failure
Apple TV OS = OS X lite
You can now hear the FW noice.
Jeremy asks the question: "is Michael high?"
1TB drive (in raid)= $400ish
"Not that there is anything wrong with that!"
Marshall is getting a new computer
"be a mac be a mac be a mac be a mac be a mac be a mac be a mac be a mac be a mac!"
Its homebuilt, almost as good as a mac. (unless, homebulit with OSX86)
Jeremy thinks OSX looks for the TPM chip...and think is the only use for it
Jeremy wants iTunes 3.
Skype uses only around 10k/s , but streaming media does not!
There are lots of free movies of Google Video (I mean, there aren't there (don't kill me google!))
A Hummer (28.9k base) vs a Prius (23.07k base):
Marshall, that number is BS.
Jeremy makes a diggnation reference
A prius gets about 50mpg
You should hack the prius
(I don't know what michael is talking about)
There are fake carpool line joke stickers on ebay, pretty cool
(No michael, they aren't real!)
Marshall wants to make a go-kart thingy, but if I built it, I would die.
Jeremy makes crazy coaster in RCT3, but now does the "realistic" ones
You can't kill people in RCT3. Like Peter vs The Chicken
Michael does the IMG podcast, Marshall is making a new site
We will relase an episode every time there is a FLOSS weekly
virb=myspace, but good
