You seem to confuse MacOSX with Windows XP. There a higher resolution meant smaller (unreadable) fonts and icons, as the OS itself seems not be able to scale the UI without getting pixelated.

SSDs are NOT just about boot times. How dare you compare a 5400RPM hard disk with a SATA3 SSD!? The SSD feature alone will make up for that faster processor in most everyday tasks. The SSD MBP will "feel" faster than the other MPB with the faster processor and the 5400 HD.

Thinner and lighter and yet as powerful (or more powerful) as the bigger MBPs. That is a BIG thing, as it is extremely difficult to bring together these otherwise contradicting features.

They said they reduced the glare by 75%. There is no separate front glass. Shouldn't you have a look at that display before whining around?

If you don't like that, get a retina Mac, which is almost as thin as a MBA.

I would assume that Chrome could be one of the first 3rd party HiRes Apps, given the rate of updates the browser gets. Apart from that, let us be realistic: compared to the installed basis, there will be only a handful of retina Macs out there for quite some time. The retina Mac is expensive and - as usual - the…

Get an external Thunderbolt graphics card! E.g. with [www.villageinstruments.com]

You are confusing that with the MIR, in which there has been at least one (if not more) fire incident.

The longer an astronaut stays in weightlessness, the more muscle mass he will lose, as moving is so much easier without gravity and no holding muscles are needed.

Well, at least in the rest of the so called "developed" world, most countries have stricter weapons regulation than the US.

Might be better to call that a "US only meme", as in the rest of the world, you (fortunately) cannot buy a rifle at your local supermarket.

Right. ;-D In this case this protest might not be in place, as Pebble - different from many, many other projects - really seems to take off.

Under what stone could you have not heard about Pebble? It was EVERYWHERE (except Gizmodo)!

It IS indeed very cool and one major advantage is: you don't have that process of "really adding anyone on it" at all. The contacts you have in your address book will be shown automatically as WhatsApp contacts without doing anything.

Well, there is WhatsApp ( [www.whatsapp.com] ), available for many important platforms (and not only BB). Many many users have it already. And you are not limited to BB users, a group of people that will become smaller and smaller over time.

WiFi will let you completely down when there is no Wifi available (when you are away from home, in the garden, etc.).

All of these systems are WAAAY too expensive.

In that case it might be OK. But I would never use a Hotmail address for a job application.

Think about Linux desktop penetration and ask again.

Which self respecting individual dares to have a hotmail mail address.
