How can we have episode III, when II is just starting? Or is this one of those trilogies where the last 2 episodes are shot in parallel? In which case:
I AM NEO. BEWARE THE POWER OF THE ONE!
WE ARE GOING IN. WE WILL NEED SL-6000s. Lots and lots of them.

Sorry but my reply here has to stand padishah_emperor. http://www.zaurususergroup.com/index.php?n...c&p=27467#27467 (http://www.zaurususergroup.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&p=27467#27467) :mrgreen:

Wrong movie, this is III.
So we\'ll be seeing you at the giant catapults with the 6000 glued to your hand.

Power to the Dark Side.
But of course in Episode II (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=4368) you\'re probably going to get into a trebuchet... :twisted:
-
Yeah, but I can use my Farce powers to defeat the insidious DrWowe and his rebel friends....
I\'ll get flung in episode VI, after seeing the error of my ways and buying a 6000 ;-)
-
As long as someone gets blasted, thrown, flung or otherwise harmed I\'ll be happy.
I don\'t really care who it is. :twisted:

that\'s the spirit...

P.S. By the way I would be more than welling to come to the dark side, if some one would be so kind as to give me a sl-c860 :wink:
-
The C860 is not needed, only the Z you have... and a love of malice and a general desire to cause mayhem. As Conan said
\"to crush your enemies, to see them driven from before you and to hear the lamentation of their women\"

You cannot pass. I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Zaurus. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of C860. Go back to the Shadow! You cannot pass.

Might I then interest you in a used arbalist? In quite good condition and compliments one\'s trebuchet perfectly. Reasonable prices. Quarrels to resolve quarrels, so to speak.

A ballista? Cool, anything Roman goes, now I\'ve fired one of those, goooooood!!!
A most satisfying seige engine. Ideal for firing DrWowe\'s 6000 or Palms and PocketPC\'s into crowds of XP users while they run for cover, ha ha haaaa!!! All tremble before the clamshell!
Now, hear my softly and oh so quietly spoken words of malice..
DrWowe, hows that 6000 brick?
Wish you\'d bought a clamshell now eh?
Do you lay in bed at night, chewing your lip wondering, wondering \"oh if only I had a clamshell!!\".
Sobbing during the quiet hours? Embarrased tears to be concealed from all - don\'t let anyone know - while looking at that aching festering Brick of Woe, oh DrWOE!, wondering what went wrong? \"How did I fail?\"
What can you do with that Brick?
Build a house? No!
Use it as a door stop? No!
Unblock the toilet with it? No!
You can\'t even carry it with it\'s VHS cassette appearance and bulkiness, for shame!.
Well, the keyboard I suppose is of some use, for small children and people with stick-like fingers! Not the mighty titan fingers of the clamshell users!
Ah yes! I can feel your anger now.. good.. give in to your hatred..
it is unavoidable..
it is your destiny.. :twisted:

:evil: :twisted:
Let\'s all ask the Japanese of the preferring of clamshell or big fatness of the 6000!

hows that 6000 brick?
At least no one will ever ask to borrow my \"brick\" to touch up their makeup... :twisted:
-
Ahh, well, the compromise between the 6000 brick and the mirror clamshells would be those nice old 5x00s... Small, sleek, and fairly sexy (although the clams are sexier), but no one borrows them for mirrors (at least mine hasn\'t been borrowed yet).
Ahh, the 5600.

Just so every one knows I voted: No, I like the 6000

I am ready, my katana is sharpened... pah! to lightsabres

I\'m ready too (hey, why not?).
My gun is sharpened, my sword is loaded.
Erm...
Something like that.
-
I just installed a compact flash Light Sabre into my 6000 \"brick\" and I\'m ready to join the fight plus we can see the Darkside coming a mile away with our nice bright 4 inch CG Silicon screens.Also it seems to me you clams can\'t get it right and that\'s why you have to keep making more machines. If the fighting gets to heavy we can use or Exp jackets and plug in twin Light Sabres
-
... And promptly drop to the ground, hands crushed by the weight of 2 lightsabers, a brick and a sled.
5600: Screen orientation of a 6000 without the weight.
And theres more software.

The weight wouldn\'t matter because we use the money we saved on wifi cards and bought gym memberships.

Cruise can\'t help you because he got hit in the face with a 6000 brick. Didn\'t you see Vanilla Sky ?
-
The weight wouldn\'t matter because we use the money we saved on wifi cards and bought gym memberships.
Ahh, but grasshopper, the 5600 costs $300 (USD) less than a 6000.
And I\'ve never heard of a $300 (USD) Wireless CF card, so we save more.
-
Oh that\'s too sad but he didn\'t have a red rectangular mark on his face in the Last Samurai
-
..... pah! to lightsabres
Hummm. Maybe THATs why my C860 disintegrated the last 6000 when the IR port was actuvated??
.... Also it seems to me you clams can\'t get it right and that\'s why you have to keep making more machines.
Nope. Just more demand for the machines.
Ever notice the sound that a C860 case makes when it closes? Sort\'a like the sound of a round being jacked into a high caliber machine pistol.
So authoritative. So ..... final. Feel lucky, punk? Go ahead; make my day.

-
Yes but a Light Sabre beats a Katana so while Cruise is holding his tang,minus the blade, we\'ll be storming the gates.By the way I\'m typing on my brick with one hand which leaves the other to pick up the fallen clams and hurl them back as you commit Seppuku in the face of defeat and dishonor. Take that Ronin.
-
There is one thing that I\'m still a bit confused about.
\"Should SL-6000 BRICK owners be fired from giant catapults?\"
Answers A, B & C are simple enough, but D .....
\"Yes provided DrWowe is holding one at the time\"
Why would DrWowe be holding a SL-6000 BRICK owner? And does it matter by which appendage or manner said owner is being held? Do both DrWowe & the owner get flung from the catapults? Together or seperately? Is there an Environmental Impact Statement on file for this? Which environment is/are the flingee(s) intended to impact on or into? Can I pull the release cord??
Most Sincerely -
-
Or, is DrWowe perhaps holding the CATAPULT??
This is all so confusing. Fighting is much simpler. I\'ll leave the catapults & flinging to the high command. Blood, guts, veins & teeth, little parts of one time non clamshell heretics .... those I can understand.
Even More Sincerely -
-
Glue a 6000 to his hand. Glue a 6000 owner to his back. Glue a catapult to his feet and fire it repeatedly until (a) the gule breaks, or ( he somehow undoes his shoes in time to be fired into the distance.
This is a no flaws plan.
-
Glue a 6000 owner to his back.
Only *one* 6000 owner? Oh .... bummer. Gotta be a way to fit more.
Glue a catapult to his feet and fire it repeatedly until (a) the gule breaks, or ( he somehow undoes his shoes in time to be fired into the distance.
Take shoes off *first*! Take longer time for glue to break (or feet?).
This is a no flaws plan.
Good plan, Inuyasha, but needs more blood & guts & bits of body parts.
Fill rest of catapult bucket with bits of body parts & broken 6000s? Hummm.

Tom Cruise? What\'s all this nonsense, I need no Hollywood movie to fuel my spite!
I will take my sword to all who speak the heretical blasphemy of the vile 6000, their words shall not befoul my ears nor eyes!
Inuyasha your words are like divine inspiration to my malevolence..
But I meant single owners, one at a time, fired into a mesh of chicken wire at about 300 miles per hour, mmmh diced....
I\'ve missed out on all the japanese stuff here, but just to get my two cents worth in, I\'d use my iaito, lovingly polished with solemn respect to slice Tom Cruise neatly and terminally with a single cut. I like all things Japanese, if anyone is being disrespectful then take it elsewhere.
What\'s this about using a Z as a mirror? Anyone trying to take my Z to look at theirselves will get their hand broken as a prelude to my trebucheting them into the side of a mountain.
It makes me fart in the bath with rage that the bum-wipe brick-lickers are beating us on the poll! WE MUST NOT LOOSE (or I\'ll have to ask a mod to rig the vote) ;-) I am prepared to loose, to die on my feet, but not until episode VI!
I\'ve shown the same disregard so far to the 6000 as I would a fat turd but I have just discovered that this techological excrement has an optional sled, SLED? It makes this horror even bigger, like a lugging a bloody betamax VCR!! I could club a man to death with one of these!
But episode IV must evolve our flaming, so we should move our rage onto Palms or PocketPCs, maybe Netbooks especially with .NET crud on it, THEY ARE THE ENEMY, those weak, pathetic creatures who scurry in the night syncing their foul devices and tap, tap, tapping on their screens, lowly runts... (those in the UK can substitute runt for another similarly sounding word) :-)

Don\'t forget betamax had a better format. You are right ,on to the handj*b ,ooops I mean Palms and Crocket PCs

I hold all 6000 owners and they hold me (metaphorically speaking)... we are one, united we stand, against the evil forces that would oppose us. But we will prevail. We will use your own hatred as a weapon to defeat you. Thus it is written in the Great Book of Zaurus.

Well, I\'d like to try it, maybe with a stack of 6000s, dropping them 1m onto concrete would be fun, but my anger has been refocussed onto Palms and PPCs, I now have zero-tolerance for such things. When I saw a guy pull his Dell PPC out on the bus I laughed out loud until I wept with laughter and I made him go red and tears well up in his eyes, now THAT is spiteful..

In the darkness of the night 2 dark figures are seen a top a nearby building. It\'s \"6000-man\" and his sidekick \"5600-boy\", otherwise know as the Brick Crusaders. Meanwhile, Super-860 is flying overhead (with a big \"Z\" on his cape) patrolling the skies. The 2 teams work together after a shaky peace treaty. They are now known as Linux League! It\'s purpose: Do defend open-source from the clutches of Doctor Palm and Evil Wince!
As the night wears on an alarm sounds in the distance! Our friends rush to the scene where they find Evil Wince using his powerful lawyer magic to intimidate Linux users at a local cyber cafe. 6000-man, 5600-boy and super-860 rush into action!
With one shot from his Infra-red beam, super-860 vaporizes Wince\'s lawyer spell, and Wince cowers back into the darkness. Before the Linux League can pursue their enemy, Doctor Palm jumps out of the shadows. Super-860 is caught off guard by Doctor Palm’s new appearance: He is now in color! While Super-860 is regaining his composure, 5600-boy declares “Holy VGA, Brick Man!â€. 6000-man hurls himself at Doctor Palm whose half-VGA face cracks under the weight of the Brick Crusader.
But then Wince, with his army of mercenary programmers comes out with new tools and applications, while his propaganda campaign is given extra momentum. Could this be the end of the Linux League?
No! From the crowds surrounding the scene, hundreds of Open Source Developers step into the arena. With a few keystrokes they upgrade Super-860 with complete VGA apps and the Brick Crusaders with better applications. At the sight of Open Source in action, Evil Wince panics and becomes the Blue Screen of Death! A few zombies step forward from the crowd (under the spell from Evil Wince’s propaganda powers), press Evil Wince’s reboot button and help him stagger away from the scene.
Is this the last we’ll see of Evil Wince and Doctor Palm? Tune in next week to hear Super-860 say “But of course! All Clamshells can fly!â€.

\"Linux League - Episode 2\" is complete. I\'m trying to get OffRoadGeek\'s e-mail to send it to him. It will appear in the next Newletter which will likely come out in July.

\"Up in the sky, it\'s a bird! It\'s a plane! No, it\'s Linux League!\"
Linux League - Episode 2
In a white room, with various electronic parts scattered in different bins, a small group of scientists are gathered around an operating table. Lying on the table is Doctor Tungsten Palm, with severe screen damage from his last encounter with the Brick Crusaders. The scientists replace the cracked screen, but Dr. Palm isn\'t satisfied. \"I must have some advantage over the Linux League for my next encounter!\" The scientists begin to reconstruct Dr. Palm.
Looking in the mirror, Dr. Palm cackles insanely. He walks over to the nearest window, opens it, and promptly flies out of the room. One of the scientists has a grim look on his face and wonders what monster he has helped to create.
* Pause for effect, theme music and opening credits *
Meanwhile, in a tall office building, Spark Sent (a.k.a. \"Sparky\"), mild mannered PDA, is taking notes in an executive meeting. Suddenly, screaming outside interrupts the meeting. All of the meeting attendants gather to one of the windows and look out at the chaos below. Behind them, Sparky quietly exits the room. In the empty hall he quickly goes clamshell and flies out a nearby open window.
Below police officers are rushing people off the streets. One officer radios something to headquarters. Minutes later a big \"Z\" is projected onto the clouds above.
In another part of the city, Brick Wayne is sitting at his desk in a large office. He is addressing various Open Source developers, when he notices the large \"Z\" projected onto the sky (and in daytime no less). He asks to be excused and leaves the room. Down the hall he opens a secret door and disappears into it.
At the scene of the crime, Super 860 flies down to one of the officers to ask what the problem is. \"It was like nothing I\'d ever seen before! One minute a group of developers from today\'s Open Source convention were walking down the street talking about software they were planning to liberate... and then out of nowhere this clamshell swoops down with a net and carries them away into the sky. I\'ve never seen anything like it. He... He kinda\' looked like you, Super 860, only that he was... um... leaner.\"
Another policeman adds: \"He was a clamshell... and he could fly!\"
Super 860: \"But of course! All Clamshells can fly!\"
The officer then pointed in the direction the clamshell flew off to. Super C860 then flew off in pursuit.
Meanwhile, in the Brick Crusaders\' cave, 5600-boy and 6000-man are working on a huge computer pouring over the evidence in attempts to find more clues. The giant computer, affectionately named \"L.A.P.T.O.P.\", or Large Anti-Portable Tremendous Over-kill Processor, says \"processing complete\" and dumps a few pages of paper onto the cave floor.
6000-Man: Laptop! Not on the cave floor!
5600-boy: Holy Antique Brick Man!
Back at the city, Super 860 catches up to the new evil menace, whose slow flight had gotten him only about 1 mile outside the city before Super 860 had caught up. Super 860 swooped past the sluggish flying clamshell, tearing the net of developers away from his clutches. Super 860 gently places the developers on the ground, salutes them, and then flies back towards the clamshell. One of the developers announces: \"That Super 860 is the best palmtop I\'ve ever developed for!\"
Super 860 eyes his new nemesis: an identity spying camera, WiFi, and clamshell design. Super 860 had never seen anything like it... and yet something looked familiar... \"Dr. Tungsten Palm?\". \"Once maybe... now I\'m am called... The Joke®!\". The Joke®\'s camera eyes Super 860, seeing through his disguise. “Sparky?†Super 860, again caught off guard, doesn\'t know what to say. Joke® begins transmitting Super 860\'s revealed identity to some unknown recipients. But before the transmission is completed, Super 860 jams the frequency using his IR beam (didn\'t know your IR port could do so much, did you? =) ). Then he stuns Joke® by displaying brilliant images at resolutions Joke® could only dream of. While Joke® was stunned, Super 860 pulled out his batteries. As the power faded, Joke® gasped \"You\'ll never stop us! The convention is doomed! Ha Ha ha ha hhhh...\". With that, Joke®â€™s screen fades and he falls from the sky... and again cracks his screen.
The convention? Super 860 quickly types up a warning message to send to the people at the convention. The message is typed up in a jiffy, thanks to his nice (non-backlit, but who cares?) keyboard, but then Super 860 realizes he has no way to transmit the data! He has a WiFi-card, but his Super-860 suit doesn\'t have any room to carry it! So, Super 860 flies back towards the city, and the convention, in the hopes of getting there before it is too late.
In the Brick Cave, the rest of the Linux League has solved the mystery! Based on previous encounters, the Brick Crusaders discover that Dr. Palm and Evil Wince are secretly working for the \"Restricting Information Acquisition Association\" (R.I.A.A.), (formally known as the K.G.B. before communism fell), under the guise of a legal corporation. Their goal: To restrict the flow of information in order to maximize on corporate profits, power, and global domination. Their enemy: Open Source, Freedom of Speech and any teenager with a computer.
From this, the Brick Crusaders determine that the next attack would be at the Open Source convention. They want to type a message to warn the convention attendees through their built-in WiFi, but without a keyboard it would just take too long to type up.
...So they jump into their carrying case and zoom off to the convention.
At the Open Source convention groups of developers have just finished designing the next generation of super software, when Evil Wince suddenly appears at the stage. Next to him was a representative of the new EU Patent laws, the RIAA, and behind them an army of lawyers, senators, and various zombies.
Super 860 and the Brick Crusaders arrive just in time to hear Evil Wince speak.
\"You won\'t steal our means of wealth and potential world domination! We have added patents to the underlying technologies and hardware drivers used by your Open Source software, so you\'ll have to pay us money, and start charging for your software or else you\'ll have to go to jail! And after you\'ve suffered in prison our lawyers will sue you, your friends, and your family for creating software that supports the copyright reform movements and freedom of information!\"
The developers were struck with fear, and the Linux League didn’t know what to do!
Suddenly, overhead, a temporal vortex opens up and clamshell flies out. After a moment, with everyone watching him, he declares: \"I am Super Zaurus 10K come from the future to save you from a moment that would change history for evil!\" The Linux League noticed Super 10K\'s WiFi, BlueTooth, Clamshell design, 2048x1536 holographic imaging screen, neurotransmetic technologies, and other technologies they couldn\'t comprehend! On cue, 5600-boy declares, in his usual limited speech: \"Holy Star Trek, Brick Man!\"
When you looked at the Super Zaurus 10K you instantly received all of the data and information you were seeking. The beauty of the world was instantly displayed to each person according to what each person was seeking.
The lawyers cry out: \"Arrest him! He is violating copyright laws!\"
Super 10K ignores their outbursts and starts to glow. A loud hum emanates from him. He flies around the room and suddenly the developers start to glow with new powers. Just as suddenly as Super 10K appeared, the vortex opens up again and he disappears.
The developers instinctively know what to do. They use their powers of information and start educating sleeping populace of the dangerous evil reforms underway. Meanwhile, the RIAA and Wince lawyers start arresting and suing thousands of the developers and users but the 2nd power the developers were given allows them to replicate themselves at blinding speeds. They couldn\'t be stopped! Before long, and with the Linux League\'s help, the entire city was involved in the movement...
100 years in the future a child is standing in front of a large memorial of 2 flying clamshells and 2 valiant bricks. She turns to her dad and says, \"Dad, what is this here for?\" \"This is a tribute to a turning point in history which lead to our freedom.\" The father holds up his Zaurus watch and the child instinctively holds up her Zaurus watch to his. A small beep is heard and then the child lowers her hand. She looks at her watch and instantly all of the information pertaining to this story - images, video, audio, text, and other - light up the neurons in her brain. A minute later, after the process was complete. The child turns to her father, smiles, and says \"I understand.\"
They turn and walk away down a path. All around them many other people are sharing dreams, visions, beautiful concepts and ideas with the means of the Zaurus watches they also have on their wrists. Now in the distance, you can hear the child singing her favorite song... and no one stops her.
She, like the rest of them, is free.
Meanwhile, in a nearby building, Open Source Scientists begin the design for the latest Zaurus: The Zaurus 10K.

LOL! :-)
Very good!
I\'ll make an ebook pdb of it ;-)

Ohhhhh! When will the screen play be filmed, Tony?
Author! encore!

Your hatred has made you powerful
Why catapult a BRICKED 6000 user? I mean the poor bastard already bought the wrong machine, spent too much, and toasted it??
A catapult would seem like FUN in comparison...Now perhaps telling them to UPGRADE to a 5000D would be more fun for us, and annoying for them.

Probably why the poor (illegitimate offspring) went out & got *bricked* in the first place, no? (G)

Ohhhhhh. Youre evil! I LIKE that in a person (G). But if the poor sod is well and TRUELY *bricked*, they probably wouldn\'t even notice the catapult ride. And the upgrade suggestion might make sense to them.
Lets just give them a Palm Pilot. The frustration alone should do them in (or sober them up one). Or even better, lets give them all Etch-a-Sketchs and tell them theyre laptops! (credits - Dilbert) (G)

Oh that\'s good. Let\'s just give them Clie\'s, oops, they\'re obsolete, lets not.
I can\'t help but feel pride in these Flame Wars which I have been a small part of, we have concentrated the minds of a malicious few and given let to such spite, it makes me smile inside... and laugh, oh how I laugh... :twisted: Everything is proceeding as I have forseen... ha ha ha haaa! :twisted:
Make sure you notice the new ZUG logo, the C series bearing Tux is obviously bigger, stronger, more powerful and a bit more cerebral and sophisticated than the puny Tux\'s with bricks.. are they children? children with toy bricks? I think offroadgeek is a secret spite monger like us and thinks the C series is the king of all Z\'s, trying to play the cool independent, but we know.. we know... :twisted:

To make room for his over-inflated ego and sense of importance... :twisted:
