Must figure out a way to use this as the 'gas pedal' in my car for speed control.

Same could be said for Android, WebOS and Windows Mobile. Both operating systems are designed to dumb down and simplify the experience. If you want a 'real computer OS' you should buy a 'real computer'.

From the article "McDonald didn't think twice about what he was doing because he had permission from Apple security and even some customers."

Their website is so poorly written, it's disturbing.

Pretty sure it just has the matte screen option. If you order the MBP with a glossy screen you get the black bezel - with a matte screen you get the silver/metal bezel.

Since I was fortunate to have my iPhones grandfathered in with the AT&T unlimited plan I have a much more important question:

Back in the old BBS days my handle was 'Darklord' which sounds pretty stupid now. Although I was 14-16 at the time.

Pretty sure someone was probably pretty quick at figuring out who they were and along with being called 'cyber terrorists' by media outlets they were starting to realize the completely deep shit they are going to get into if they get caught.

35M users. Advertising and subscriptions. They do pay licensing to some of the labels out there - they are quasi-legal. All users are required to indemnify Grooveshark for any losses, damanges, etc, etc. and no users have been sued or brought to court. Yet.

The whole 'upload your music into the cloud' thing is just a way for ANY company to get around the labels haunting them. By the end of the year the market is going to be saturated with these companies that offer xGB storage and a client that runs on X. It's like financing a hard drive.

Not to take this too far off topic but I would suggest getting a secured credit card to help build your credit.

The music industry was so worried about the shift of sales of music from the physical realm to the digital realm that I don't think they are too well prepared for this. I think you're starting to see a big shift from people having libraries on their PCs to just wanting to stream whatever they want, wherever they…

Finally! Justification to keep the 'Unlimited' iPhone data plan I've had for years, I was just about to go to the 500MB plan to save some dough on our

If Amazon institutes the collection of sales tax and therefore becomes no different than the brick and mortar retailers the only thing that is going to change is the prices. Amazon's prices aren't always significantly less than their competitors but if all things are equal they will have to make up the business…

Perhaps you live in a more urban area but the price Oregon pays to have no sales tax, sucks. It's a beautiful state but when you go to the rural areas and see how poor and destitute people are, its terrible. People think Portland, Bend, Ashland or Medford when they go to OR but the reality is a big chunk of people…

That logo generally denotes iOS not the iPhone hardware. iOS 5 (as well as Lion) will be what makes iCloud work its magic.

Damnit Microsoft - I want to see something more than Active Desktop, Oragami, MCE on top of the ol' standard Windows OS. Same Windows, different front end.

Personally I prefer the Boxee Box. Despite others having problems with it, it has been great for me. I have a DIY FreeNAS box w/ 4TB of storage which is set up to automatically pull all my favorite shows and movies. On top of that it does Netflix, Vudu and a host of other content. Plus my wife and kids have no…

Other comments in this thread have been great. Personally I've purchased my vehicle through a broker with a flat rate fee and had great luck. Basically I did my research on what vehicle I wanted, called him up and a vehicle was located in about a week. Because it was "Certified Pre-Owned" I had my financing done…
