    3G iPad. And tethering on my phone. Not really worried about it.

    I've never been in the military (thank you for your service, by the way), but I have a job that keeps me away from home for most of the summer, and I recorded a whole bunch of bedtime stories for my two year old before I left. It took a couple of times for him to understand that I couldn't talk back, but my wife

    If they make a major overhaul anytime soon, they'll be dropping the optical drive and slimming the whole line down.

    I'm with you. The only way to make the MBP line better than they are now (for the purpose they serve and such) is exactly what you said. I love my 15" 2008 Unibody. It's my most faithful electronic companion, and the only way it could be better is if it got slimmed down. I've been eyeing the 13" Air, but I'm hoping

    You can enable manual music management in iTunes. When you plug the device in, it's a checkbox option. Then you can drag music from the iTunes library straight to the device.

    That's a really brilliant idea. I was going to say exacto-knife it, but I like that much better.

    Two sexes are always better than... wait did somebody say wings?

    I'm with you guys. I'm not really sure if this interviewer is always like this, but it seemed extremely unprofessional.

    That's okay. I delve in that area myself.

    Collectively, yes. But no one human being knows whats best in every situation. Which is obviously why Democracy (or a republic which his what we really are) is a desirable form of government, especially when large swaths of the population actually participate.

    In Southeast Texas, we have mosquitos EVERYWHERE right now. I've got them in my office, in my house, in my car. I can't get away from the little buggers. My poor two year old is covered in bites. It's driving me crazy.

    I'm not arguing with you about that. I just thought I'd say what your comment made me think. Lots of us think we know whats best. Few of us have any idea of the magnitude of the difficult decisions that the POTUS faces. I had a bit of a wakeup call about that recently. I certainly wouldn't be quite as... short with

    Man, I was really hoping we'd get card stock with these designs on them. That would totally be a worthy trade off!

    I so badly want the Mario one, I'm contemplating a move to Japan.

    There was a fairly substantive difference between what Microsoft reversed engineered and what Apple licensed though. I'm not saying copyright law works even half as well as it's supposed to. What I'm saying is, claiming that Apple stole the GUI and mouse is a complete misrepresentation of the facts.

    I think everyone thinks they know how to solve all of the problems in their country. Of course, few of us are ever actually faced with them in any meaningful way, so we can go on deluding ourselves. ;)

    I've mostly stopped using a marinade since I really got into filling about two years ago. Ocassionally I'll do one, but it's always homemade. If I'm doing steaks, I prefer just using a little salt and pepper about three minutes before I grill them. Not much at all, but just a bit. Chicken gets a brushed on sauce/juice

    You clearly have no clue what your talking about. PARC wasn't something he could steal. PARC (Palo Alto Research Center) was a division. The division that developed the GUI and mouse. Their GUI was called Smalltalk. The metaphors used in the Mac GUI were radically different from those used in the Mac and Lisa

    Well, the court that heard Xerox's case would agree with me, which is why the case was dismissed. Xerox hoped that if Apple won its suit against Microsoft for the look and feel of their GUI, that they would likewise be able to receive money from Microsft, but to do that, they had to "protect" their copyright against

    First it wasn't Xerox's "Sparc". It was PARC. And Xerox gave Apple the tech from PARC for $1,000,000 in pre-IPO shares. Apple didn't steal it. People who say that are repeating BS that they've heard elsewhere.
