Does it play the movie whenever you connect the drive and doesn't stop until you moonwalked three times around Neverland?

Just another marketing idiot wanting to milk money out of a dead guy.

Next up: Samsung: Kurt Cobain edition, also with the addition THIS IS IT.

well looks like found my mothers day gift .......Seeing has how she has my old hardware upstairs.USB 2.0 or 3.0 i don`t see it in the post above.

Easy: I think what he means is that he is dead let him at least rest in peace,He was a great performer and why every one hates him is beyond me,He was acquitted 3 times for the same charges,It was also proven that the kids parent put them up to it just to get a quick buck.Maybe California should have a double jeopardy law.

By insensitive I mean that everybody still makes jokes about him based on his behavior with kiddos. A) You should not speak bad of a dead person and B) Pedo-jokes are "tabu".

This is why I'm happy to read so much black humor here.

But H82Luwhatever is also right, he's dead, leave him alone.
