The media pays attention because it's what the public wants. If you stop buying magazines in the checkout lane the magazines will fold and the paparazzi will have to find another line of work, and then the "stars" will no longer be in the limelight as they are now. Apparently the public is happy with things just as they are despite how this poll turns out.
Chip, I think it is much more involved than just the mags at the checkout--there are tv shows up the cabonza, and the newspapers along with web sites are full of star news and attention, not mainly pix, jmo. It will never end no matter what we dont buy.

I reckon. I just mentioned checkouts because that it where I see it the most. I don't watch much TV. I don't even have a flat panel set and I don't feel deprived not having one. Of course I don't feel deprived not having an Xbox or a Wii. If I ever decide I do want them I will try to get involved in beta testing. That is how I got every version of Windows from 98 through Vista.
I dont have any of that stuff either. Has any of the beta stuff really messed up you puter?? How many different beta versions of vista did they have about 6??? They still didnt have it right after that---too big of a hurry after announcing it for a couple years. Thats cool that you get that stuff to test.
The beta stuff never messes up my computer because I always test on a machine that I use just for beta testing or if I'm not beta testing then I'll try new version of Linux or something. It's just for fooling around with stuff. Every beta os has many builds, way more than six. Sometimes there a new build every week. It takes a lot of testing to come up with a new os. I agree with you on Vista though and I think the big problem with Vista is the fact many testers probably didn't have the high end equipment needed to run Vista. As a result testing suffered and so did the product.
