The first one I bought and owned was a Performa 575. I sold it like 5 years after owning it for a cool 300 bucks. Nothing holds its value like an apple/mac.

Yeah that's why I said he wasn't a perfect man.

This is really sad. While not a perfect man. He invented and help bring about technologies that for better or worst have changed all of our lives, though most commonly for the better.

Yeah sorry "first world problem" is maybe not the greatest term, but it does seem accurate. And yeah, i get it, gizmodo is a tech blog that deals in the cutting edge, but this is really a minor quibble. The complains you have about the product are superficial. Its not that it looks bad, its that it looks the same.,…

While I have never lived in the 3rd world this is true, I have lived in rural parts of Mexico with out electricity, or toilets.

Boo Hoo Hoo! This is like the definition of a first world problem. You (people complaining not just you Mat) will be getting a new phone, with new features, that's faster and your real problem is that it looks the same as your old phone. Your real problem is that no one will automatically be able to tell that it is…

Its dead. Apple always does this. They'll keep an item around for maybe a year for those few who still desperately want it, but will eventually get rid of it. They did it with the White Macbook.

Meh! Since the iphone is never coming to T-Mobile, i wished they would have at least given me a new camera for the ipod touch i love as a sad reminder of what I can't have.

This is genius. Though it best to just past a law against it and sue the bastards that way.

I would avoid sony. The interface is really bad. Cnet seems to like this and its not to bad at under 200: [reviews.cnet.com] . You may also want to consider just getting them a WD TV Live. I would pick it over a Roku any day. But the WD has a great super simple to use interface, and would only require the adjustment…

Its completely unethical to give someone HIV, and no IRB would ever approve that. What most likely will happen is what I stated. They will give the vaccine/placebo to a group of people who are a high risk of HIV. Try to make both groups as similar as possible, and see if it makes any difference. Most of the time this…

I think the idea is that you give it to "high risk" patients. That is to say you give it to people who routinely have unprotected sex.

Ha. That was my favorite part too.

Holy Shit! In the words of our Vice-President: This is a big fucken deal!

Netflix is turning into a better hulu plus. I want more movie content please.

The copyright on the bottom of the scanned page says 1978. Though you are right that my first instinct was to suspect something closer to the mid 80s.

Ikea hot dogs are so gooooood!

I believe the idea is that you use the search function to search for your program and launch it.

Didn't belkin have a not so secret coupon code before that was something like 12345 that would give you 40% off any order?

This happens to me all the time. It is such a pain. But yeah, its so dumb. I can get access to so many people's stuff. I usually just cancel whatever service they signed up for.
