anything than this cheap aluminum!!! there is a dent on my 2011 MacBook and I don't know where it came from. I had a blackbook for almost six years and no scratches or dents.
It was probably a gentle breeze...

Princetonians, in my experience, are fratboys, prudes, and associated squares--by far the worst of the Ivies. Not a creative bone in the entire student body. They wouldn't know Macintosh if it bit them in their collective beige butt.
So tell me, how on earth is this good news? Unimaginative folk like these don't belong on our platform. Much better to celebrate the longstanding prevalence of Macs on progressive, independent-minded, and artistic campuses such as Brown and Columbia. But Princeton? Give me a break.

Well if I get one for the wife, I am sure I will get laid plenty!!
Knock her up a few times and make the marriage worth it. Children offset how bitchy you wife can be.

Check out the inventory tracker in MR iPad forum for Best Buy, Target, etc.
I placed my order online at the Apple Store and have been waiting patiently for a April 20 delivery. Yesterday I checked the inventory tracker and it turned out my local Best Buy had stock on the 16GB WiFi black, just as I ordered it from Apple. Literally 15 minutes later I was up and running with my new gear & cancelled my Apple store order. No waiting in line or wasting any more time with the whole process. Why wait if you can grab it locally?
I'll have to check this out... I can't find one here locally anywhere and the people at the counters have no clue when stock is coming again. Best I got was check back or take a look at the shinny new Xooms in stock! :p

It looks grey as can be down here. I think the ol' BBC may have meant 'fewer' showers than yesterday but who nose. Bare in mind that in June for Glastonbury, BBC said it would be sunny then it tipped it down and flooded the entire sight. :eek:
Playing for a draw is not how they've played all series, but it's difficult to know how what they'll do with so much at stake. You can feel the pressure mounting!

Well if Apple is introducing a Movie Store, I'd hope that they have enough bandwidth to host their own introduction event... ;)
Well they did buy that huge data center a while back. What was it called again? A "tier 4" something or another.

Nokia is only enforcing the legal right to attempt to protect what they consider is misuse of their IP. Let them.
Why does everyone get their knickers in a bunch about this? If they have a case it'll be upheld, if they don't then the court will throw it out. Big deal. Blame litigation happy America if you have to.
EDIT: Oh and to people saying why has it taken so long to bring an action - these corporate matters can take a while to rumble through. Yes, commercial pressures do have an impact on when cases are brought - trust me, it happens an awful lot!
Good post.

A net reduction?? Time to invest in a calculator there Chris. Driving your electric car does not cause a reduction carbon levels.
Although your mention of waste heat is an interesting one. Modern gasoline engines are about 33% efficient. Meaning 33% of the energy produced by the engine is in the form of kinetic energy - motion to propel the car. The remaining 67% is lost as exhaust emissions, and waste heat.
I did work it out. But you only did half of it. So 67% of the carbon in gasoline is wasted as heat. Most of it going out the tail pipe
Now assume you burn coal, convert that to electric power and use that to charge the car. I'll claim that waste heat in that process is less than 67%
But it's actually better because we are not 100% on coal. We use natural gas, hydro and even wind and solar. So all considered the electric car is much better. In the North East they use a lot of hydro power so a car there really is clean.
Next you have to look at the 20 year life of the car. The electric car will get cleaner every year as they slowly clean up older power plants. The gas car will always be a gas car. If you think about how much carbon is used over 20 ears the electric car look even better (depending on how fast they clean of power plants)

Oh Gosh is this guy our version of the Dell Dude.
Hey, I liked the Dell Dude (too bad he got busted)! And I'm glad Justin will be doing more commercials. I think they're great. My fav so far is the one with the psychiatrist. Of course the home movie one is the most pleasing visually. :-)

I personally do not understand the strong desire by some for a white phone over a black one. The specs should be the same short of the post I saw about the delay possibly due to camera issue and light being absorbed. Is the idea of white more "mac like" as its the color of many apple products? It works the same? I got some white epoxy here might do the trick :)
Clue me in please.
Why does someone buy a red car instead of a blue? Personal tastes, nothing more.

[Macworld reports (http://www.macworld.com/2006/11/firstlooks/rosetta/index.php) that based on their benchmarks, Apple's Rosetta PowerPC emulation technology for Intel Macs...
Please...
"Rosetta" is Apple's cute marketing name for their rebranding of Transitive's "QuickTransit" technology".
http://www.transitive.com/
So, of course, Apple and Transitive engineers have been working together to improve the performance.
But, please, don't call it "Apple's technology" unless you say "technology that Apple is licensing". Lots of interesting stuff comes from outside 10700 N. De Anza Blvd, Cupertino, CA (the real address for 1 Infinite Drive). Which, btw, I've only driven by 3 times this week...

And a lingual question - why the use of the word 'prefecture' all the time? As in Chiba prefecture, why not just Chiba? Isn't it unecessary, like saying 'Caifornia state' or 'Los Angeles city/county' all the time?I believe that most � if not all � of the prefectures are named after their capital, so using the term helps define the difference between the city and its surrounding area.
