Sony is a sore loser!

Sony acting like a brat

 Like a kid who fights with his sandbox buddies and takes his little toys to a corner so no one else can play with them. That’s what SONY and Columbia (the same) are doing to XBOX 360 owners who are using the Netflix portion on the NXE.

I find it outrageous that if I’m paying why I am not allowed to play the material where and how I want it. Whats next, If I own an ACER computer BIG MEAN BULLY SONY is going to block my pc out too?

I think Netflix should not allow this since we are all paying customers. I wonder what would Netflix do if little by little we start backing out and start downloading those SONY movies from a torrent and then playing them on our XBOX?

You want to remove piracy SONY AND NETFLIX? Well this is not a smart step.

As consumers we need to start stick together for our rights. These corporation and they’re ridiculous behavior and wars  only affects us.

From now on I’m never going to buy anything SONY. You can forget the plasma and the blue-ray I was going to buy this upcoming month. Forget it. You lost me as a consumer with this little fit you’re throwing, Why? because you have crippled my fun, my personal entertainment time.

Hmm I wonder if there’s a lawsuit here…LOL

Readers, I leave you with this Idea which I stongly urge for all to take action on a boycott on Sony and Columbia for making out lives more “complicated”.

Think about it. We take it from Wall st, We take it from the Oil companies, We take it from our Health plans and now we take it from the entertainment sector?

When is the madness going to end?

8gb Cruzer Micro

8gb Cruzer Micro

Originally uploaded by docboost (manny1969)

So, I was still using an ol’ Kingston 1 gb travelmate that was working quite well, however it was useless for me since I handle videos, pics and music. So I checked online and I found that (believe it or not) Walmart had the Sandisk Cruzer Micro 8Gb for under $25.00, A real steal.

I drove over there only to see that they were at that $24.99, oh well still the price OMG…Oh Joy!

So I took one of them into my little greedy hands and swiped the credit card, and in that moment the cashier looked up and said: “Boy they sure dropped the price, I guess people dont buy them anymore, they used to be at $44.00″.

My eyes opened even wider and and I ran, I ran so far awaaaaaay. Got in my car and fired up the blackberry and logged on to all the tech stores online in my area and everywhere they were being sold at that price range.

So people, my recommendation is that if that ol’ flash drive is obsolete and cant afford to dish out $60.00 for a 16 gb one. Give that old one to your mom or dad and head out to Walmart and get one of these…

And by the way, the light pulses in a nice warm and fuzzy orange glow. Hmmm a Cylon ?

Acer Aspire 1 AOA150-1649 (Copper)

Netbook

I know, you’re gonna say….Damn that’s one Fugly colour. Well Everyone has it in Black, Blue or White, so I’ll take it in copper.

This little power house is really a very quick, light and powerful netbook. It weighs slightly over 2 pounds, The cpu is an Intel Atom N270 1.6 GHz. It comes with 1GB of ram. A 120GB SATA Hard Drive, Video is an Intel GMA 950 Graphics. This little bugger comes with a builtin webcam plus 802.11G Wireless. And it runs XP home like nothing.
Lets see how long it takes me to save up and buy one. I really dont wanna use my CC since I have 2 units plus a blackberry. This is just overkill…LOL

Oh btw, the price is $329 at JR in NY.

Well, here we go again

Hello everyone.

Im starting my blog again since I was not happy with the one from blogger. I’ll stay put. I promise.

Peace
