Inside CNET Labs 47: We need some more line-standers
The line-standers are soon to return...predicts Dong and I.
(Credit: Caroline McCarthy/CNET)Moms. You love 'em, I love 'em. Well, you love your own that is. Still, moms can be annoying and pushy at times. Especially Dong's mom, who, for some inexplicable reason, thinks he's marriage material. Hence the constant pressure she applies to get him hitched. I'd just like to say to Mama Ngo right now, I'm flattered but he's just not my type. So stop calling me please. Kthxbai.
This Ep. we break out with some non-WoW gaming talk (I know right?) as we discuss Dong's backstabbing in Warcraft 3 and me crappin' my pants in Bioshock. Not literally thank god. Not since the medication at least.
Also, get ready for the "line-standers". Dong and I discuss the reveal (and soon to be launch) of the iPhone 3G S. In addition, I talk a little about why some game developers think the iPhone will soon eclipse the PSP when it comes to 3D graphics. Reminds me of the good old days of Sega Genesis vs. Super Nintendo graphics.

Eric Franklin refused to write a bio, saying, "Why are you bothering me about this bio business again? If I wanted people to know more about me, I'd send them to the Inside CNET Labs Podcast" (shameless plug). E-mail Eric.

Eric Franklin's colleagues once had the following to say to him: "Eric, you've been doing this performance testing thing for over 10 years now. How about you try something different?" To which Eric responded, "How about you shut the #%$@! up?" This candid attitude
allows him to go toe-to-toe with the most extreme of personalities, including that of Dong Ngo. This bio was written by Eric Franklin.
Dong Ngo is a knowledgeable, opinionated individual who wants to convince the world that he's just a normal person; but he hasn't had much success. According to him, this is because the world itself is abnormal. Dong loves traveling and is well-versed in several languages. He, unfortunately, is not so well-versed in English. Still, it's best to ask him questions. From networking and how to optimize your system, to turning a strange place into home or what the meaning of life is…most of the time, he has the answers. The question is: Will he make himself understood? Subscribe and find out!
