Really? That would be against the law in Oregon...

LADY GAGA!!!!!!!

This?

WAIT! WAIT!

I give you Jim Carrey and you respond with Robocop? You win.

I see your Doc Brown and I raise you one Edward Nygma.

Actually, while I failed to say it, I was thinking of the MacBook Pro and the modern iMac mostly. The MacBook Pro is intended to be a high-end laptop for anyone who needs that including business professionals, musicians, students, teachers, etc. The iMac is intended to be the high-end consumer desktop.

Apple graphics cards are often close to top end at the beginning of a refresh cycle. The problem is that at the end of a 1.5 year or 2 year refresh cycle, the graphics cards in a "brand new" computer are 1.5 to 2 years old...

The way apple is implementing this is with a slider that you can use to set the size of of the things on your monitor independent of the resolution. Sort of like what happens when you force your LCD to non-native resolutions, but without any jagginess.

;) I still have my 2008 macbook pro desperate for an upgrade. Maybe I'll plan for buying a new one 6 months from now....

The last corp job I had was all xp all the time on the front end and all unix on the back end. From my hotel, I would connect remotely to something similar to a citrix windows desktop via my mac.

Haha... Paint... ;) Brings back memories. Last time I used it it still hadn't changed much since the windows 3.1 days...

Ah. I see that I misunderstood what you were saying. This must be a windows 7 thing. I've never (ever) used windows 7; but I've heard good things about it.

I'm currently spending my learn-to-tweak-your-operating-system resources learning the unix commands to make my mac do things that are slightly outside the standard... I don't care enough about windows anymore to bother learning the names of control panels. I don't use them often enough for it to be worth it.

Windows key + r is a keystroke. Anything I can do without taking my hands off the keyboard is faster than anything I have to use a mouse for.

Would you prefer something similar to the abomination that is microsoft's office ribbon? Apps have menu bars. Except for games and some simple utilities, it's nearly universal. The only real difference is that microsoft wastes screen real-estate by putting that menu bar on every window, even inactive ones, while apple…

I'd like to take your tongue in cheek suggestion and make it something that might actually be helpful. What if this light, the rear one anyway, was activated by rearward facing radar that used your speed, the speed of the car behind you, and the distance to the car behind you and activated when the car behind you…

It's there for a reason.

I'm a mac guy at home, but I write software on and for windows boxes. I rarely touch the start button.

You're not doing it right. Either you are trying to find a specific business and having a hard time doing it, - you're not doing it right,
