You do realize that Macs are the most popular computers in the educational field right? Hell, my local school district is moving to a one-to-one computing system, Macbook (the white plastic kind) for every kid from 6th grade to 12th grade.

I find that, on Windows, using the 'Processes' tab to kill the program usually works faster.

No, I meant it sounds illegal since they're taken abroad. I'm pretty sure the employers would become responsible for taking the employees/former employees back if they were originally taken abroad by their employer.

Umm, that sounds.... Illegal.

Whoops, I meant 2 MB/s during LAN transfers.

My recommended router: Netgear WNDR3700. Bought a refurb from amazon three weeks ago. $70 Creamy smooth networking. Around 2 MB/s on the 'g' band. Oh and its a four (!) radios. One b/g radio and one a/n radio. Both have a "guest" network feature. Whereas my old WRT54G v8.2 router had to be restarted everytime I

Funny how you mentioned this, I actually learned about this particular fact during the Civil War unit for my History class. The actual teacher that taught was dreadfully boring, and the actual history is decently interesting.

I'm pretty sure you're paying for 6 Mb/1Mb. The difference? I believe 6 megabits = 1 megabyte.

I'm supposed to get 20 down and 2 up. But in reality, I only get like 13 both ways. Keep in mind both measures are in megabits. Its steady all day long. Comcast.

Fuck. You.

I'll give it shot just because its less of an eye sore than VLC. I love Windows Media Player's UI though. But the actual player isn't all that good.

If you were to look into your contract terms, I can guarantee you that it doesn't say that [carrier] will give you at least x speed. It might say up to y speed. But that's it. Most internet providing companies (ISPs', Telecoms' etc) do not guarantee a minimum amount of speed. As long as the carriers don't guarantee a

BUT there was never any mention of a minimum speed.

If you can seriously use 10GB on your PHONE, there must be something wrong with you. I find wireless (as in 3G networks) speeds to be horrendously slow. Why let 5% of the customers use up 20% of the network? Why ruin the speeds of 10 people for the enjoyment of 1 person? I fully support all carriers on this, but there

Consider this, is it fair that the people who eat 1 plate have to subsidize the people who eat 10 plates?

Hmm, how Chromey.

$200 * 12 months = $2400

Not really surprising. Robots just need to be paid once, and maintained every once in a while. After that they'll work 24/7. Pay one engineer $50,000 to look after a couple hundred robots, fire 100 workers that are collectively paid $100,000. (Keep in mind I'm pulling the salaries out of my ass right now, but I would

If you do just reading, Kindle all the way. If you like to do a little bit of reading on the side and just have a couch companion (or a bed companion), iPad all the way.
