@kkatsikas2060: Higher ratings does not equal better quality journalism. Are you a big fan of Nickelback, too?

@Jon Morales: I agree wholeheartedly. While I like and use Facebook's services, I don't want them to become another AOL locked-in community. Google should be the bigger Man/Woman and just prove how open they are, in spite of Facebook's not reciprocating. BTW, I'm never switching my email system. It's too…

@Enginseer: Somehow I'm finding it hard to believe that the same people who build and design BMW and Mercedes automobiles are immune to the shrinkage epidemic.

@ImmaLion: A+ for effort.

@Arken: Oh, c'mon, you know as well as I do that none of these commenters would say any of these things in real life and are just goofing off on the internet.

@ddhboy: Sounds fishy. I'm with the people thinking the kid was just selling parts from a knock-off factory. I bet selling a "white iPhone conversion kit" turned out to be more profitable than selling an iIiiiiiiPhone34987(*&( for this Chinese manufacturer.

@rashad123us: Lagfix it, dude! Ever since I did mine up, it's been awesome!

@BPL5683: I don't think there's potential harm in tying your email address to the FB account containing all those pictures of your friends taking massive bong hits. I would like to encourage everyone to use FB mail and take pride in all their extracurricular activities!

@Jimmy1: Yeah, I agree. I have about 5-6 emails addresses from various places I've worked or gone to school, but I do maintain a "social"/casual email address on Gmail that might work for Facebook.

@tbonesteak: Ha! Well, I meant it more in reference to fans of Minor Threat, like yours truly.

Minor edit to show the concert hands I have witnessed around Washington, DC.

@Stem_Sell: Yeah, I was all excited about this ultra-portable, but leather is a no-go for me. Hope you can get an option not to have that. I'd rather have the good old matte black plastic from their Thinkpad line.

@myma1313: I don't know where I said you should lose money because of a coupon. That wouldn't be fair. We seem to be in agreement since you posted, "I agree with the 15% baseline." My only quibble was when you felt stiffed by $5 on a $30 bill. Yeah, it's not great, but I personally, as another person who has served…

@blyan-reloaded: Really? I mean, I believe you, but it makes me wonder about what you do :) Mind if I ask?

@Kaiser-Machead v.2.3: Agreed. However, there'd be no harm (except price) in them throwing a Blu-ray drive in there given how many people own HDTVs and now have BD movie collections. If I could afford the tv I really want and build a Blu-ray library at home, it would be a nice perk to be able to take those movies on…

@TheCrudMan: Hatersgonnahate.gif

@blyan-reloaded: Not trying to get into a fanboy debate because I own both brands, but I'm sure most everyone in the world could do their jobs on either a PC or a Mac at this stage in the game. Both are awesome!

@pettiblay: I don't think it's evil, but I do think Facebook mail sounds as silly as relying on Myspace or AOL for email .

@Isaac M. Winters: My thoughts exactly. I might use the service, but I don't want to rely on Facebook mail for my professional accounts. The integration of push GMail with my phone is too good to let go at the moment, and if the Facebook apps are any indication of how a Facebook Mail app would work, then here's me…

@myma1313: Maybe you're just greedier than I am or a much better server :-) but I don't like to feel entitled to at least a whole 1/5 extra cost as a baseline when I serve. That would mean I'd expect upwards of 25% when things are really, really good. To me that's just excessive to expect of people in this economy.
