It's cute
"I followed other reviewers' suggestions and ordered bigger, normally 6.5-7 but ordered an 8. It fits well! I am wearing an 8, cannot quite believe it. Otherwise, it's a cute pair of shoes."

Crazy small
"This is a really cute shoe, but it's absurdly small. I usually wear 8.5-9. I ordered this in a 9 and I felt like one of Cinderella's step-sisters. I couldn't even get it on my foot. It fit my mother, who wears a 7.5, though. If I can't find a pair in a local store to try on, I'll be sending this one back."

Can't be a 6 1/2
"Have you ever ordered a pair of shoes, received them, tried them on, and then were convinced they were labeled the wrong size? That's these shoes. I couldn't come close to fitting my foot in these, which is sad because they are some of the cutest flats I've seen, and seemed well made. I would have had to gone up multiple sizes (probably at least two) and couldn't try on any at my local store so they were returned. I'm sad."

Hey hon! We must be on the same wave length! I came on here looking for you! Sorry I haven't been around much. Too much drama to even begin to explain. Plus, I have bursitis in my shoulder and am not even supposed to be on the computer right now, at all! How have you been hanging in there?
Good evening! How have you been doing?
Thank you so much for the smiley face. Should God allow, it would be nice to get together and talk, especially about God.
I really like Billy Ray Cyrus' new song. That is really fantastic.
You are welcome Suzy. I am very happy to have found this board and am loving meeting new friends.
Thank you for accepting friend invite :)
Thank you! It is the wallpaper on my computer! I never did get to watch Doc. I am old enough to have loved him since Achy Breaky Heart!! Go to YouTube and search for him and his new song, "Somebody Said a Prayer". I cried the first time I heard it. I didn't know this until I found his website, www.billyraycyrus.com that he has a Gospel album.
Thanks for the kind tags. It was nice of you. I love your picture! I agree with you about Billy Ray Cyrus. He's come a long way since his role on Doc.

Judges 3:7-9New International Version (NIV)
7 The Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord; they forgot the Lord their God and served the Baals and the Asherahs. 8 The anger of the Lord burned against Israel so that he sold them into the hands of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram Naharaim,[a] to whom the Israelites were subject for eight years. 9 But when they cried out to the Lord, he raised up for them a deliverer, Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, who saved them.

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and other senators from the western U.S. celebrated the launch of the Senate Western Caucus by introducing the Clean, Affordable, and Reliable Energy (CARE) Act.
A comprehensive energy bill, the CARE Act is aimed at ensuring that all the energy tools are in place to fuel our economy and fix our nation's dangerous overdependence on foreign oil.
"One of the keys to our nation's greatness has been the availability of abundant affordable energy. It's unfortunate that the Obama administration and leaders in Congress from Eastern states want to make affordable energy a thing of the past," Hatch said. "We're here to counter that effort."
Hatch said he agrees with the Obama administration's push for ethanol as a vehicle fuel, along with solar and wind as sources of electricity. He added, however, that he differs with the president's apparent desire to shut down existing sources of abundant, reliable energy.
"Ethanol has major land use, water, and other environmental constraints, and solar and wind are both very intermittent and can never take the place of our need for base load power generation," Hatch continued. "The president and congressional leaders will ruin this country if they shut down abundant and reliable energy sources that we can afford and that we know work."
Hatch said the administration's anti-oil agenda was highlighted by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar's recent decision to shut down 77 energy leases that had already been auctioned off and paid for. The lease sales were the result of many years of environmental studies and reviews by Salazar's own land managers in the department.
Furthermore, the senator said, the Interior secretary has released a report in an attempt to defend the indefensible - taking land management decisions away from his own professionals who understand the relevant issues better than anyone else and leaving those decisions to a less-informed group that he will handpick.
One of the aims of the Senate Western Caucus is to thwart the anti-oil agenda of the Washington elite and their extreme environmentalist allies, while at the same time promoting alternative energy.
"As one of the senators who initiated the first sagebrush rebellion in the 1970s, I recall that debate being largely about land use questions," Hatch said. "The impact of that battle was felt mostly by Westerners. But the anti-oil agenda being pursued by the current administration and congressional leadership, will impact every American in higher gas prices, higher energy prices and higher food prices.
"We call ourselves the Senate Western Caucus because we represent good western values and we need to underscore the common beliefs Utahns share with our neighbors," the senator said. "However, we're really fighting for all Americans who pump gas into their car, turn on the lights at home, or want to feed their children healthy, affordable meals. That's really what our agenda comes down to."
The Clean, Affordable, Reliable Energy (CARE) Act
A Comprehensive, All-of-the-Above Strategy for American Energy
1) Renewable and Alternative Energy - Facilitate development and deployment of cleaner renewable and alternative energy sources.
Renewable and Alternative Energy Trust Fund - The CARE Act establishes a trust fund to promote the development of renewable and alternative energy, paid for by revenues from new oil and gas exploration.
Nuclear - The CARE Act eliminates barriers to the expansion of nuclear power production by promoting the recycling of spent nuclear fuel and providing incentives for nuclear capacity development.
Synthetic Fuels - The bill authorizes the Department of Defense to enter into multiyear contracts for procurement of synthetic fuels and repeals section 526 of EISA 2007 to allow the federal government to procure advanced alternative fuels.
Alternative Fuel Vehicles - This legislation extends tax incentives for alternative fuel vehicles and for new plug-in vehicles.
Education and Workforce - Harness the strong work ethic and creative ingenuity of the American people by training our domestic energy workforce and encouraging scientific and technologic advancements through education.
The bill provides funding for research grants at institutions of higher learning to support programs in energy and engineering.
The bill provides funding for merit-based scholarships for individuals pursuing degrees in energy-related fields, such as chemical or mineral engineering, petroleum geology, or alternative and renewable energy.
The bill provides funding for the operation and/or development of energy-related programs at community colleges.
Production - Increase the supply of American-made energy by enabling the United States to responsibly explore and develop its oil and gas resources.
Outer Continental Shelf (OCS)
Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR)
Oil Shale
Energy Infrastructure - Foster the development of U.S. energy infrastructure to make our energy supply more affordable and reliable and to provide a path for a cleaner energy future tomorrow.
The CARE Act grants preferential tax treatment to bonds used to pay for construction of vital parts of our nation's energy infrastructure.
The bill extends the exemption from the Renewable Fuel Standard for small refineries for an additional four years.
Promoting Effective and Efficient Government - Streamline the regulatory process and improve accountability to ensure government bureaucracy doesn't stand in the way of American energy reliability and security.
The CARE Act prevents the misuse of the Clean Air Act and the Endangered Species Act for regulating greenhouse gases.
The bill removes unnecessary bureaucratic red-tape by streamlining the NEPA process and related judicial proceedings for any reviews necessary to carry out the bill.
The bill establishes an Alaska Offshore Continental Shelf Coordination Office to streamline leasing off the coast of Alaska.
This legislation would make the Mineral Management Service Director a Senate-confirmed position.
Conservation and Efficiency - Promote energy conservation and efficiency through incentives for energy efficient homes and buildings and by ensuring government regulations do not discourage repairs and maintenance that improve efficiency.
The CARE Act encourages conservation through tax incentives for energy efficient homes and buildings. It also extends tax credits for using energy efficient appliances and making energy efficient upgrades to existing homes.
The bill facilitates investment in newer, cleaner technologies at existing facilities by clarifying that routine maintenance and repair shall not constitute a modification of an existing source requiring compliance with new source review requirements under the Clean Air Act.
Current co-sponsors of the CARE Act with Sen. Hatch:
Sens. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), David Vitter (R- La.), Jim Risch (R-Idaho), Bob Bennett (R-Utah), Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.).
"Although the Senate Western Caucus is founded today with a discussion of energy issues, that is just the beginning," Hatch said. "The values held by citizens in the West are applicable to more than our nation's energy debate and the caucus will be rolling out several western initiatives over the coming weeks and months that will present common sense solutions to a whole host of problems currently facing our country."
Current members of the Senate Western Caucus are: Sens. John Barrasso, (R-Wyo.), Bob Bennett (R-Utah), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), John Ensign (R-Nev.), Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.), Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), John Kyl (R-Ariz.), Mike Johanns (R-Neb.), Jim Risch (R-Idaho), Pat Roberts (R-Kan.), David Vitter (R-La.).

Plan B: Alex Tanguay?
Jonathan Willis
July 13 2009 06:00PM
The frantic pace of the first two days of free agency has slowed down to a trickle. With so few free agents still available, the folks who cover hockey rumours have focused in on the remaining stars, and among forwards there isn't a bigger name on the market than Alex Tanguay.
David Pagnotta of the Fourth Period reports that the Phoenix Coyotes have had multiple conversations with Tanguay's agent, and adds the following:
The Ottawa Senators, Dallas Stars, Edmonton Oilers, New York Islanders and Florida Panthers have also reportedly contacted Tanguay's agent.
Tanguay is a responsible two-way player who has hovered near the point-per-game mark for the majority of his career, but he has two weaknesses which make him less than ideal for the Oilers:
- a) he isn't overly big or consistently physical
- b) he's more of a playmaker than a goal-scorer
It's too bad really, since for the right price Tanguay is an excellent player. Year after year, he and his linemates score more than the opposition. In Calgary two years ago, he was derided for his lack of offensive production although that certainly wasn't the case at even-strength; he just wasn't putting up powerplay numbers.
Regardless, despite the fact that I like this player he isn't a fit in Edmonton – and not just for the two reasons listed above. The fact of the matter is that Edmonton doesn't have the cap space to absorb Tanguay's contract without sending away someone like Dustin Penner, or a combination of Steve Staios and Robert Nilsson. I imagine that Steve Tambellini was kicking the tires (as he should) and hoping for a bargain, but it's difficult to picture a scenario where he brings Tanguay in as the solution to the Oilers' top-line woes, unless he can find someone to take on a contract without taking money in return.
I couldn't agree more, Tanguay is NOT a fit in Edmonton. Just what we need upfront, another small playmaker, uhhhh, NO! please no! Don't get a player just to get a player, it must fit into some sort of bigger Tambo plan.... Tambo, tell me there's a plan?..
Penners season last year went south along with the rest of the Oilers players after he did everything asked of him in a game where he stuck up for Hemsky, got in a fight and had all those penality minutes, MacT did not play him in the third period, MacT said he had no legs for sitting that long? But Macityre, who shares the MAC with MAC-T can play 3 shifts in a game in different periods, with no legs. The whole team and season turned that day on MacT. When his team mates seen how he was treated they tuned him out. J.W. look at the stats before that game and after that game for wins/losses. Thanks. Sandra
July 13 2009, 06:55PM
Oilers signed Chis Minard. He played 20 games with Pittsburgh last season and was the top goal scorer in Willkes-Barrie with 34.
Not a bad depth move to help the farm out if you ask me.
Penners season went south under MacT.
With Quinn coaching Penner can we expect the same as last year?
I don't think so and am curious to at least see come November how Penner's came comes along.
July 13 2009, 06:58PM
Oh yeah and I agree that Tanguay is Sooooo not a fit here.
Maybe a Frolov for the top line?
I am just waiting for them to sign Malholtra... (please sign him please....)
YEAH, WTF is the plan exactly? Just wait around for the Heater to reluctantly take his least desired location? What if someone else steps up their offer in the mean time? Then we are stuck with exactly the same roster, minus a capable third/fourth line center.(and plus one more year to a less than fleet footed 5th d-man) Im happy we signed the Wall but He's no Luongo, he won't take us all the way to the cup on his own. This team is still 3 players away from having success, and we all know that. Heater would be one, and I think they can still sign a face-off winning center and stay under the cap. But that still leaves a gritty winger who can score 15-20 (Moreau possibly altough he'd have to stay out of the box to accomplish this) Who knows though, perhaps Tambo will surprise us all with some black-ops type deal that breaks just before training camp. We can only hope.
I think Tanguay is unfairly knocked for the reason of "not being a competitor." I think a more realistic way of describing this potential inadequacy is that he thrives playing an offensive role against lesser opposition. His career to date has largely shown that he struggles going power vs. power, but does very well in a second line role.
Which would actually work out very well for a role with the Edmonton Oilers. A line of Tanguay-Gagner-Nilsson/Cogliano would be very nice, letting Penner-Horcoff-Hemsky renew their role playing top opposition.
July 13 2009, 07:25PM
I have hope for Penner this season. He has the ability to be a good player. We've seen the stats on this website that Penner isn't as bad a player as MacT led us to believe. I think we'll have a team with a new attitude this season. Change is good.
July 13 2009, 07:28PM
Tangay on the second line with Gagner and Patty O and a first line of Hemsky, Horcoff, Penner/Heatly. With perhaps a Dman moved for cap purposes?

Please, Tambellini: DO NOT move one of our top four D for Tangay.
It's been almost two hours since this article was written...
You know what? Forget it, I don't want Tanguay anymore. The guy's OBVIOUSLY an Edmonton-hating bum.
Boy, we sure dodged a bullet there.
***** Two weeks later *****
Hey, you know what? I think I'd still take Tanguay despite all his Edmonton-hating. I mean, a first line talent is something this team needs, right?
God, what's the hold up getting him signed?
Tambo, get it done!
This is KLowe's fault. And probably MacT's. And uh, Staios.

Kind of like the rest of the Oiler forwards... It's unfair.
(I don't know why I'm being such a dick... I guess I just don't like Tangay)
July 13 2009, 07:51PM
@ Chris
I would accept losing Staois for Tangay thats about it unless its a pmd for Tangay and a shutdown dman
Agreed that he's not a fit here. The more interesting question is where WOULD he fit. The Sens would be good imo if they can dump Heatley. He showed chemistry with Kovalev last year, which would give Clouston some options within his top-6.
July 13 2009, 08:08PM
@ ebi
Perhaps on the island feeding passes to Tavares
@ West Coast Oil:
I just don't like the idea of another soft player being integrated into the top six; unless the soft player can score 45 goals.
Failing that: go big; go ugly, IMO! Let some miserable SOB's buy Gagner some room out there.

What change??? It's basically the same team as last year!
I agree that change is good, but so far we didn't get much of it as far as the lineup goes. Look at the top lines of the best teams in the west. No way we can make the playoffs with Penner having to play on the first line.
July 13 2009, 08:30PM

Agreed however I would take Tanguay over Nilson except for the cap hit.

Although his year in Calgary he was excellent in the PVP role; he just couldn't produce on the powerplay.
That matters, of course, but at evens he's been decent for a few years now.

Last time I checked the season doesn't start for a few months. Why the panic to do something right now?
I would assume that Tambellini has explored all of the free agents that he wants to and hasn't found a fit.
Why not let him take his time and look for deals that will make us a better team rather then make a rushed move to make the average fan happy?
And as far as thinking that Tambellini is just waiting on Heatley's every move - I would think that is very naive...wouldn't you?

The roster may end up being similar but the TEAM will not be the same.
Just think of what the energy level of this team will be with a coach that will actually implement "current" systems and try to dictate a game plan rather than react to whatever the opposition does?
I would bet that a Quinn coached team (same roster)would not have pissed away a playoff spot with 10 games remaining....
Quinn has already said more intelligent things in his short time here than MacT said during his entire tenure. I have a GOOOOOD feeling about our coaching staff!
Quinn's record speaks for itself.

I was thinking last night that perhaps we are just better off waiting a couple of years for our prospects to develop and then it struck me. In the next 2 - 3 years our top six could look like this: Horcoff, MPS Hemsky Gagner, Omark, Eberle Now I would say these lines have the potential to put the puck in the net but is it me or are these players still on the small size (except MPS). If these guys develop the way we are hoping (yes I know the chances are they wont) I really cant see room for Cogliano or even for Nash unless he replaces Horcoff. Anyhow my question is do you think the Oilers will bring all on board and take the skill at the expense of size?
Eklund is reporting tallon was canned and Stan Bowman is in as gm in Chicago. Can anyone confirm this?
Man this team sure likes to keep the fans on a roller coaster of emotions. Maybe when they ever get around to building the new arena,, they can have an amusement park with the coaster ripping through the Oilers Office.
We got Heatley, we don't have Heatley, Heatley is a maybe, Heatley is thinking, Heatley is too tired to think today come back tomorrow, Penners gone, Penners here, We lost Roli, We got Khabi,Thorton might be traded here for Heatley, we don't have Heatley, Oilers trade for a puck, Oilers can't find puck bag, Oilers might go after Tanguay.....sheesh...I'm exhausted and its only mid July...
This better be a good season or I'll check myself into the pysch ward for emotional stress...
~I think Tambo is checking his phone every 3 minutes waiting for Dany boy to give him a call or a text saying just something. ~
I am quite sure that the Oilers staff are making and taking phone calls and emails about roster moves. Think about if Burke phoned over here and said "Hey why don't we trade you Jeff Finger and I'll take Cogs, Penner, and a 1st." What do you think the answer would be?? I also think that a lot of people have this perception that the phones are going off the hook with nothing but killer deals for the Oilers. There are only so many teams and so many players to be dealing with.
Why does everything for this team have to happen right here and right now??? I don't get it. Patience will get you a long way and that is something that this team and us fans need to realize.

That was a Oilers board joke. Or an E4
July 13 2009, 10:01PM
I can just see it now. Horc wins the Faceoff and the puck makes it back to Visnovsky. Vis moves the puck up ice to Tanguay who quickly dishes it off to Hemsky, who is catching the defenders sleeping. Hemsky heads to the net and makes a beautiful cross crease pass to Tanguay who immediately passes it to Horcoff waiting in the slot. The Goalie has lost his balance and the net is practicaly empty. All Horc has to do is hit the net and it's a sure goal. If only he could. If only he could.
West Coast Oil wrote:
Horcoff, MPS Hemsky Gagner, Omark, Eberle
I've got, hiiiigh hopes, hiiiigh hopes. Hot apple pie in the - skyyyy - hopes.
Unless you're talking a 37 year old Horcoff. In 2-3 years I see O'sullivan in our top 6 before anyone not already there.
I might offer as well why does everyone think that Penner will do so much better next year under Quinns watch and there is still no hope for Nilsson the guy is one of the top skaters on the team and everybody just wants to trade him for a bag of pucks I don't know just my opinion
And for the loss of Staios+Nilsson
Penner - Horcoff - Hemsky Tanguay - O'Sullivan - Gagner Cogliano - ? - Pisani (tho it would be Moreau LW Cogs C - but dammit Jim, we need a Center who can win faceoffs not a damn winger there) Moreau - Pouliot - Stortini
Id take that, and I think Tanguay will be cheaper than 4.9 cap hit
Moot point - He wanted out of Calgary, why would he want to come to Edmonton? Except for a gross overpay, that is.
July 13 2009, 10:10PM
@ Hemmertime
You say I have high hopes but you assume someone will take Horcoffs contract off our hands before its done?
I agree osully is going to be a 60point guy so is cogs if we keep him gags 80-100
yeah if you removed staois and even a marginal player you would have 3.6 mil in cap space. I think tanguay signs for somewhere close to the penner deal 4.25 ovr 2 years.
@ West Coast Oil: No, I say high hopes that MPS, Omark, Eberle all turn out. With our draft record Ill be happy if 1 does. I got hopes for Toni Rajala too.
We have some good young talent and no MacT to turn them into career 3rd liners, so I wont stomp on the dreams too much lol
and if they do it will be awhile. Not in next 2 years
July 13 2009, 10:42PM
@ Hemmertime Im hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. If I'm not mistaken Omark signed a one year contract in the KHL and if he lights it up you know the Oilers will have pressure to bring him over next year and keep him on the big team. With MPS several reports state he is close to NHL ready now so is it really hard to think he may be on the roster in the next 2 to 3 years. Eberle is probably the longest shot and he did okay in the AHL last year (mind you on a very limited audition). I personally would rather see them all develop in the minors until they are ready but the Oil are not known for being patient with their prospects.
I'd be surprised if EDM were to sign Tanguay for the 2 reasons you cite, but I don't agree with not signing him for those reasons. Maybe the Oilers would like to get a LW that plays a certain style, but he's a clear upgrade even if he doesn't throw lots of hits and score lots of goals.
A high quality LW 5 on 5 shouldn't be ignored simply because he doesn't throw a lot of hits or score 50 goals; improvement is improvement. If you can get him at a great value, do it provided there's a somewhat reasonable way to make it work after. If the Oilers have absolutely no willingness to risk sticking money in the minors, and no one that's expendable is tradable, then maybe they can't sign him either way, tough for us to say in that respect.

Eklund has it that Calgary is quietly putting a package together for Heatley that'll include a high profile D-man. And that's a city on his list.
That JSBM site better be rocking good this winter. Rusty's going to put in a crapload of overtime.

By my recollection Tanguay started on the top line with Iginla but struggled there. He was demoted and spent the majority of the year on the second line and was universally panned by Calgary fans for not being to hack it on the first line.
At least as far as I recall.
I agree that he's quite good at ES, just not facing top opposition. During his year in Calgary he still put up excellent overall boxcars when considering that his points almost all came at ES and his PP production was nearly non-existent.
I figured the Islanders would/should take a run at him since free agency started. I've been surprised by their lack of activity. Perhaps its that no one wants to play in that dump of a building, but I'd think a playmaking winger to play with Tavares would be ideal.

@ David S:
Why do people even bother bringing up that Eklund crap on here??? Sutter is in love with that defense, why would he break it up?? I don't see Phaneuf going anywhere and he's really the only guy that would be mentioned in that scenario. Stick to Spectorshockeyrumors, its a little more realistic.
I wouldn't be overjoyed with Tanguay but I wouldn't be against it. Kinda how I feel about Bhulin. Oilers fans always need things done right now, I can only hope Tambo is doing things responsibly and taking his time to do it right.

In the first place, you should give your head a slap for even bothering to reference . . .
The Snuffleupagus let it slip that there's going to be a four-way swap between Ottawa, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Vancouver. Watch for it.
In the second place, rumours of Phaneuf for Heater have been at the top of everyone's pile ever since Dany asked for a trade, and only picked up speed after the Flamers picked up JayBo. I really thought it would happen, at first, but now I think if it were going to happen it would have happened already.
July 14 2009, 08:41AM
If we say traded Hemsky for kovalchuk, Tanguay would be a fine signing. Otherwise he doesn't really fit.

Props to Ravona for the awesome sig! Noel is the greatest and I challenge you to prove me otherwise!

firstly. not £299. gonna be £200-£250. also. there is no point of the ps3 unless u want it to be slim. no new ports (usb card reader), not faster. its wider thatn the normal ps3. and they still have the the fat junk @ the bottom just to place the usb ports. y not put it @ the back or on the front where nuttin is used. theres gonna be the old ps2 power plug, which most probably has an external power box.
its coming out in september.
also. the new psp go seems good with its app sotre and psp minis. the firmware is kool. but they need a big step on psp, they need to put 2 anolog sticks. and just make a new step!

i dont care if u warn me bout triple posting. this thread is so dumb. wizzle has no knowledge of games!!!
an infraction seems more adequate then - zidane
Last edited by zidane21ps; 08-24-2009 at 01:11 PM.
Also, the purpose of the thread is to tell others about what happened in Sony's Conference. What's so bad about making a thread that the PS3 slim has been revealed, and Sony cut the price? Sure maybe I did messed up the price for the UK cause I thought IGN was using the "£" symbol when instead they used the "€". Even if the slim is the same thing as the fat one, people don't care. They all want a low price, because that's the only problem of the PS3.
By the way, learn how to use multi quote. :p
The point of the slim is to do the same thing as the larger version, but be cheaper. I don't think anyone has a problem with that. At least they shouldn't, but people are bitchy and weird.
actually, some of you *antec* should go to gizmodo, or endgadget. they've both been reporting that the cell processor of the ps3 slim is a faster version than that of the fat. also the ps3 slim can broadcast the new format for HD audio through the HDMI. the fat can't.
although the average users won't notice the changes. and the cell processor change won't affect gameplay, as developers would have to develop for the slower processor
IGN did a comparison, its covers mostly everything.
I find it interesting that the PS3's are PS1 compatible, but not PS2. I wasn't aware of that before the IGN report. Guess they kept it cause playing those games must be like farting for the PS3.
This decision has nothing to do with current owners of the PS3. It is a response to the constant demand for a price drop. The problem before was that the system itself had such a high production value that already at $599 they were losing money. While this expected and most systems are sold at a loss(they make the money off the games), there is a point where a company has to decide when it is too much of a loss.
However, it was an overpriced system that couldn't compete at it's current price tag. The only solution was the PS3 slim: cutting the production costs so that the price tag could be lowered without a huge loss with each system sold.
Also, they are discontinuing the production of the older systems. They have no reason to continue to sell those. The PS3 slim is cheaper to make, cheaper to sell, and has the largest hard drive yet. It is superior to the old one in all but some near unnoticeable ways. They have stopped production on the older systems, cutting their price too, and letting their inventory run out. Apparently acceptable losses.
Oh yeah, and sadly, backward compatibility is apparently dead. Which sucks a lot.
im not sure if the info is entirely correct, but it seems correct
check out the different logo,
=O different logo!!
yes tom..different logo
