Quotation of the Day
"I don't know how I'm going to feed myself."
R. J. BOLLARD, a freshman at the University of Washington, who said he had 73 cents left
after buying the video game Halo 3.


While IBM never intended OS/2 to be a gaming platform and Stardock was never able to make
it one, it is sort of funny in my mind that the top 3 gaming consoles run on chips/cpus
made by IBM originally for the MAC (Apple) which has abandoned the chipset.


another quote from the article:
Joseph Hunter, 19, a student at Morehouse College in Atlanta, said the series has "sort of
become an obsession" and said entire dormitories at Morehouse face off against one another
in Halo combat. Regarding Halo 3, he said, "I knew that if I didn't have it, my life would
be over."

and the lead line:

Bill Gates, the chairman of Microsoft, is the richest man on earth. R. J. Bollard, a
freshman at the University of Washington, said he would have 73 cents left in his bank
account as of midnight. And that's one reason Mr. Gates is likely to be the richest man on
earth for quite a while.
