I like Tron, he fights for the user!

Saw Tron today, I thought it was good. Some of the hand to hand fighting wasn't that great, but overall the movie was awesome! Lightcycle and Lightplane fighting was cool, and the continued story from the first was well written. Acting was good and the Clu vs Flynn theologies was interesting. I liked it!

Also: Jeff Bridges is The One.

Obama plugs TNT? This is morally disgusting.

I understand the President of the United States talking Sports, it's a good thing, brings him closer to the American people. But plugging TNT seems to edge in a territory the President should never move towards.

@Aplus: Thanks for taking care of my account cancellation, but...

I have recently moved from Aplus.net to FatCow.com to host various websites. I use GoDaddy.com as my site registrar and FatCow.com to host each page. I find FatCow and GoDaddy to have the best site control features which are intuitive and easy to use and understand at a glance. Aplus.net has been my web registrar and host for many years and they offer a good service with good customer support but the reason why I moved over was for FatCow's unlimited storage and unlimited bandwidth for only $66 a year. Unlimited E-mail addresses and databases all while being 100% run by wind energy, how could I not move to FatCow?

I encourage all Hosting service providers to move to such a business model. In an effort to keep net neutrality on the up and up, we need to encourage the understanding that digital information is not a limited resource. The internet is not like water, we will never run out of bits to move through fibre and copper. The only thing people should have to pay for is speed, not amount. So I encourage all hosting providers to take a stand and start offering Unlimited hosting plans.

Again, thank you Aplus.net for the good service and being a great solution for me for years. It's been real and it's been fun, and at times it was even real fun.

@Mwave: Thank you for the great customer service!

Recently I made a post talking abou the poor state my keyboard was shipped in and posted it through Posterous. Mwave responded to this problem promptly by apologizing for the inconvenience and resulted to either give me a coupon for $10 bucks off my next order or refund my shipping costs. The even went so far to change the way they ship keyboards to prevent this from looking unprofessional again next time.

This is why I will continue to come back to Mwave. Not only do they have the best prices in technology but they have some great customer care. I will continue to speak the good name of Mwave and recommend friends and coworkers to look their first for tech purchases. Best every time. Thanks Mwave!
