Right-- that would be exactly what the different classifications would entail.

Nokia? I guess I still associate that with my flip phone from about 10 years ago-- perhaps they've improved since then. But in my mind the proper association is "If an iphone is a ferrari, a nokia is a motorized scooter."

the nokia lumia 920 is actually very very nice, windows phone 8, 4.5", 32GB storage, gorilla glass, and basically indestructible.

Any one up for a monthly dynamic drive debate? I've been looking at some of the old threads (ie, the days of they, tech_support, the_testing_site, pcbrainbuster, jack, techno_race etc.), and I realised how great some of the members are at debating.
I nominate for the debating teams:
Daniel
John
Traq
Molendijk

(Teams will be three people each, and the topic will be chosen ten minutes before the allotted debating time by the adjudicator)

I think organizing debates intentionally may just be asking for arguments to start-- as they come up it's fine to discuss things, but that should be enough.
(I've also personally never liked arguing for a point I don't agree with. I'm guessing that would be necessary, at least sometimes, in the format you suggested.)

No debate it is then

[djr33]

But I'm sure we'll have a lot to discuss as interesting topics come up. Whatever catches our attention will be the topic, which is a good thing anyway

[bernie1227]

awwwww well, we still have iphones to talk about

Bit of randomness - Which is better? Brie or Camembert?

[bernie1227]

Neither

That isn't an acceptable answer to the question.
You could say "I hate both" but seeing as that wasn't one of the answers, you wouldn't be answering the question, invalidating your response.
