<div class="IPBDescription">Sony UX</div>...well, all I have to say is, I love you guys, but I may never see you again once I get $1900.

Seems pretty unremarkable, despite it's small size and powerful components. This is why it causes me to shake in fear:

I love you all. Wish me luck.

(Note: This is bad melodrama. I was more commenting on how effin' incredible that is.)

    There's no way I'd pay two grand for that. Unless I had unlimited dollars of course. But even then only for examining it close up.

    It can be abbreviated to "the SUX". I do not forsee this going well for Sony, at all.

    But...but...there's nothing like a laptop to warm your groin up one cold winter day <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />

    Actually, I've never had a laptop myself but you know...I've heard things <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />

    I saw one at Circuit City. It's pretty amazing... the screen is touch-sensitive, and the button on the top right is an eraser-style mouse (M1 and M2 are in the upper left corner). The whole thing slides up to reveal a full keyboard. The display's pretty amazing.

    Then again, it's a Sony. Baahahahahahahahahaha.

    Maybe that guy who forgot his daughter's 6th birthday party was going on and urinated into a bottle in front of all her friends could use one of these.

    Tha bathroom thing might sell XD

    But the "omg they sold 5 milion units" thing is not something that would make me want to buy it <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />

    Still interesting though, wow everywhere. Is Sony secretly sponsoring Blizzard?

    Actually, we may not have to.

    My roomie told me several days ago(before I saw this) that his friend got on the front page of wow.com(check it, its in the community spotlight area). His name was Jim.


    We can still beat him up and take it if you want though. I call dibs, 'cause you don't even like WoW.

    Sony hatred needs no explaination. But as far as blizzard goes, there was that time that they killed that open source project that had reverse engineered and implimented their own battle.net server. That was pretty ######-y of them.

    Yeah, but its understandable. If there were substitue Battle.net servers, then people could play multiplayer using pirated copies of their games.
