probably true.... I work for a company that chooses to make some of its products in china solely based on the fact that its way cheaper than here (and for the record, i'm very against this practice) . The downside is that we frequently have little hiccups related to lower quality standards in china (likely less true…

Oh nice, I hadn't heard that about the australian ban... that was ridiculous

what's an MBP? some kinda laptop or something? ;-)

as of late, it seems all apple needs is a patent, regardless of whether they were the first.

now why would you love seeing other people upset?

I dont know if my photoshop has ever crashed (on a PC, if it makes a difference) ...

I'm not quite sure how easy it would be to just "simply jam" a piece of metal into a bar of soap, but apparently these are actually pretty common- [www.google.com]

I wouldn't even go that far... Most of the art (photography) that I create doesn't earn me a dime. as cliche as it sounds, beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. If you think its art, then its art.
