LOL, I would have expected the blister pack to contain nothing at all.

Does anyone have any experience with the 27-inch version of the BenQ monitor (the XL2720T)? I have an old Dell 24", looking to upgrade, and I'm wondering if there might be another choice other than the high-end Dell 27.

Since I'm still grandfathered into my AT&T unlimited data plan from my original iPhone (that I've hung onto through my iPhone 4 and now 5), I feel like I'm a bit golden-handcuffed.

That'd be Jacques De Molay. Yup, that's most likely him.

Maybe I'll have to try this again. The first two episodes didn't hold me, and ended up moving on to other things. I do like how the main actress looks sorta like a young brunette Jodie Foster, though (sci-fi Clarice Starling?).

Yep, this exactly. Early early morning watering is best for the grass: no water lingering on the lawn for hours (which can encourage the wrong things growing), and no boiling the grass in the heat of the day.

Oh my God... I... I remember this! Didn't the little central computer thingy light up?

Okay, just one more... How about the Big Jim Kung Fu Studio, with the crazy Muscle Mover that attached to Jim's back and made him kick out the brick wall and chop up little boards? This made for a very happy childhood Christmas.

I had this one, too! Thought about adding it — thanks for digging it up!

Yes, Micronauts! Rocket Tubes!

Okay, now I'm really going to show my age, but how about some old-school love for the Fisher Price Castle? It had a dragon, real foam beds, a horse and carriage for the royal family, a hidden room behind the staircase, a working drawbridge, and a trap door from the tower that dropped you down into the dungeon

Thank you, THANK YOU! Maybe it's a bit before some of the folks here, but as I went down this list, I was so disappointed to not see it listed. The spinning transporter was awesome!

And voiced by the fantastic Jennifer Hale. :-) Marvel: EMH, you will be missed.

You know, now that I think about it, you're totally right. It's been a while, so either I'm misstating his "answer", or he didn't really know, either.

The transfer that Feedly offers worked flawlessly for me — kept all my feeds, folders, and organizational structure. Now I'm just waiting for the Reeder update. :-)

I'm sure folks know this, but Google hasn't been the only one to use these kinds of questions in their interview loops. Microsoft used to do it, too (not sure if they still do), as I ran into quite a few of these pointless "brain teasers" during a couple loops back in 2004 (worked at MS from 04-06). These gems

This is, undoubtedly, a horrible episode. It does get 1/8th of a star from me, though, for its interesting addition to Star Trek warp theory: where Warp 10 is infinite speed, which means you exist in all locations simultaneously.

Good to know!

Definitely worth mentioning, since folks who skip the DisplayPort and hook this up via DVI will find they won't be able to reach the full 2560 resolution.

Can you give us an idea of what "too pricey" is for you? The Dell 27" above is a fantastic monitor, but not sure if the current $550 fits your budget.
