:woot:  Its too much! At least Amazon is ready, but I wouldn't be shocked if all of those are just to cover pre-orders.  Hopefully mine is in there.

 

We are almost there.  I'm counting the days now.

I didn't think you were getting a ps4

Seems to be 54 per crate, 25 rows long, looks about 3 rows across, around 4,050 PS4s. 

I figured about 75 PS4s per crate, because I can see 6 PS4s horizontally placed in 3 sections with 30 PS4s in 2 sections vertically placed in-between the horizontally placed ones .  75 PS4s per crate x 75 crates in total in 3 rows, is 5625. The PS4 is $399, so there is apparently about $2,244,375 worth of PS4s in the photo.

There could be more in the truck trailers and/or other side of the yellow bridge (or whatever that is) in the photo...

It's 4 per block (3 Vertical + 1 Horizontal) * (12 blocks) -> (48 + 6 horizonal on the bottom) -> 54 total.    It would be 54 * 25 * 3 = Total PS4's  * 399 = Total MSRP Value

Well I had said I was just going to get one at launch, but while I was waiting to decide, I pre-ordered both early on from Amazon.  That way, I could easily cancel the one I decided to stick with, but it made sure that I wouldn't miss one.  In fact, I could still cancel one, but as we have gotten closer, I have found it hard to part with one, so it looks like I'm getting both. 

 

The ps4 is too good to pass up power wise, but it lacks launch titles I want, while the x1 has the launch titles I want plus the better media support at launch.  I'm getting extended warranties for both to avoid the first gen failures (cheap through Amazon).  Hard to pick between them for me personally. I'll just have to delay my smartphone/tablet buys until next year :laugh:. 

Soooooooooo,

Whos going to be the first to try and build a supercomputer by connecting all these together like they did the PS3?

It would me much cheaper to build using AMD parts this time. These are generic x64 APUs.

I know it doesn't make a single bit of difference to anything, but I think the PS4 box art is incredibly lacklustre.

Then again, it does have a sweet carry handle.

hmm.. Amazon.ca doesn't offer extended Warranties.. I hadn't thought about that.  I wonder if Sony will offer one.

Its through square trade.  I'm not sure if that is offered on that site as well, but I have to say the rates for coverage are cheap.  I can cover both a ps4 and x1 for two years beyond the standard one year for $80 total.  That's 3 year warranties for both. I like the terms as well since they pay for shipping on a return. 

 

I really shouldn't be buying both at launch considering the insane expense, but you only live once I suppose.

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance by David Uzondu Recently, the UK's Home Office announced a sweeping set of proposals to make Britain the "first country in the world" where children cannot share or view nude photos on their smart devices, an initiative that authorities claim will protect children from online predators and combat pornography. In response, Signal believes that while the government must keep children "safe" and "protected," it should do so through social services and education, not by "surveillance, funding cuts, and cover-ups." The company called the plan "dystopian" and warned that it violates everyone's fundamental right to privacy, arguing that scanning on the presumption of nudity will only strengthen the market dominance and data control of giant corporations like Apple and Google. The statement continues by accusing the government of hiding its true intentions under the guise of child safety. Signal argues that the Home Office is building an invisible surveillance infrastructure that remains ripe for exploitation by future administrations and authoritarian regimes. According to the company, this aggressive approach completely ignores the actual needs of young people, such as properly funded schools and mental health services. Tech companies like Apple and Google have a three-month window to implement these mandatory device-level filters across the United Kingdom. If these tech firms refuse to comply with the mandate, the government will pass emergency legislation to force them to comply, threatening massive fines and even going after the CEOs of these companies with criminal charges. The technology will work by blocking explicit images directly on the operating system of all smartphones and tablets by default. This system monitors the device camera and third-party apps to intercept nudity before anyone can upload or send the image. Adults can still view explicit content, but only after completing a strict age verification check to unlock their devices. Several bodies like the NSPCC and Barnardo's praised the Home Office's decision, arguing that device-level intervention stops the cycle of grooming before it starts. The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) also supported the policy, claiming that tech companies can implement on-device checks "without threatening privacy or collecting any data."
    • Did you watch the keynote? It is way beyond what is described in this article. Looks interesting. Now it is time for them to deliver unlike what happened in 24.
    • It pretty much has to be compatible with MS Office or it is going nowhere. The rest of the world runs office including Europe. If it is not compatible it will not survive.
