Singer Michael Jackson dead at 50

Va Va Voom — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 22:40:36 GMT

Michael Jackson has died at age 50 after being rushed to UCLA Medical Center.Los Angeles Fire Department Capt. Steve Ruda told the L.A. Times that Jackson was not breathing when paramedics arrived at his home and CPR was performed.
TMZ.com reported that he may have suffered cardiac arrest.

ackson had been due to start a series of comeback concerts in London on July 13 running until March 2010. The singer, whose hits included �Thriller� and �Billie Jean,� had been rehearsing in the Los Angeles area for the past two months.
The shows for the 50 London concerts sold out within minutes of going on sale in March.
His lifetime record sales tally is believed to be around 750 million, which, added to the 13 Grammy Awards he received, makes him one of the most successful entertainers of all time.
He lived as a virtual recluse since his acquittal in 2005 on charges of child molestation.
There were concerns about Jackson�s health in recent years but the promoters of the London shows, AEG Live, said in March that Jackson had passed a 4-1/2 hour physical examination with independent doctors.

Wow this was seriously unexpected!

Lets hope he will be remembered for his music, not his bad past with children:eusa_doh:

May he R.I.P.

Zune HD

jack — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 17:03:07 GMT

Zune's have been available in the United States for several years now, but the market share of microsoft's PMP doesn't quiet fulfill all expectations. this could change with the release of the newest member of the Zune product family - the Zune HD. its also going to be the first Zune player available to other markets.
Microsoft is investing heavily into their Zune strategy. a key point of their strategy are current xbox 360 consumers. As the recent E3 conference has revealed, their Xbox Live Service is working amazingly well together with the Zune HD. Even their content line up on the Zune HD Marketplace is ready to take it against iTunes.
Also hardware wise the Zune HD seems to outplay its opponent, it is the first PMP with an nvidia graphics chip and outputs video in HD.

actually we all laughed at microsoft when they announced to bet sony in the consol war, but now in 2009 sony is in big troubles with their number one horse. apple's focus is currently on their iPhone, the iPod brand hardly gets much attention recently.
at least it seems that the only thing that could stop microsoft is the trend to buy all in one phones in stead of stand alone PMPs.

Seems very impressive if they can make it work as good as they want to convey.

For car games I'd probably prefer a controller any day of the week, but that skateboard game:icondrool I'd rule that game so bad I'd never leave the house. Imagine riding a skateboard with no fear... Damn!

Buying a DSLR

RikfromBelgium — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 18:42:29 GMT

ok, we have a digital camera at the moment, a canon ixus whatever.
But believe it or not, I want something bigger and better. And the driving force behind it, is my girlfriend seriously, she badly wants me to buy a DSLR, isn't she amazing

But, and this is my problem here, although I've always liked photography and I've always wanted a DSLR, I know shit about them.

So I'm depending on you to give me some help, advice, tips.
I don't want the best of the best, not going to spend �1000 here.
But I don't want crap either.
I want a decent DSLR, good value for money, not too complicated, but with most of the gadgets one might use. A DSLR which basically, you can't go wrong with, but without having to sell my kidney's or go through a 3 year class to understand it.

thx for all the tips I'm sure you're gonna give. :usa7uh:

Surprised no body has made a thread yet.

Don't know what to think of it. Very tempting now to dump T-Mobile and join AT&T.

The only disappointment so far is that it looks the same as the 3G.
