Bad analogy. The values of the rest of the cars don't drop %30 as well when you drive off the lot. The value of the iPhone doesn't drop nearly %30 when you walk out of the store.
Nobody is arguing whether $600 was a fair deal. The problem here is that most products don't have a significant drop in price only two months after launch. The RAZR was expensive when it first came out but it took significantly longer to drop in price to free.
That's the point, though. He already bought one very recently. Most people don't buy something and then if the price drops buy it again. What good does that do?
That is true for satellites from decades ago but not now. A modern spy satellite has a resolution of 1 meter. If you read a newspaper outside and someone cared enough, they could tell what page of which newspaper you were reading.
I honestly thought that when one said,"Get MythTV." it would be that simple. Why does it surprise me that there is more than one distro, just like the rest of Linux?
It doesn't even have to have an infinitely small aperture. On a 35mm camera, f/16, a focal length of 28mm, and a focus of around 3.5 feet puts everything beyond 3.5 feet in focus. A sunny day can yield some pretty high shutter speeds.
It is off by default and buried a bit. You'd know if it was on. I had to go through the whole process when I turned it on. It is pretty silly to do this for OS sounds but it can help if you have weird speaker placement.
The way Vista does it is by having you place a microphone where your head usually is and playing sounds through each speaker. It compares the time it takes for each sound to arrive at the microphone and adds delays to the speakers that sound closer. By doing this, an accurate soundstage can be built custom-tailored to the room and your location. I might be much closer to the left speaker than the right but it will sound like they are the same distance apart. The "middle" will sound like it is directly in front of me even though the actual midpoint of the speakers will be to my right. Doesn't sound so silly now, does it?
Wouldn't testing how many log-ins your servers could handle be one of the first things you do? If I was writing software for a log-in server that is one of the most important things I would have in mind. I would be asking myself,"How many log-ins in a short amount of time can my software handle? How will adding this line or removing that line affect the server's performance?"
That last bit made me laugh. My girlfriend is getting two iPhones for Christmas. Guess who gets the one she isn't going to use? She decided that if she got an iPhone I would start dating her phone.
I think it goes something like this: iPhone<-->iTunes<-->PIM(Outlook, iCal). The iPhone communicates with the rest of the world through iTunes when it is docked. I don't think email functionality is in iTunes, just the information it needs to synchronize your iPhone emails and computer emails. It is just the mediary.

That is completely wrong. The SIM card can be taken out. It should be a well-known fact by now unless it is something you refuse to believe.

I'm just saying that they are definitely better than 1 meter resolution but how much better is probably classified.

I don't think the Post Office will mail an unopened envelope to yourself. It is a waste of time and money.
That's pretty funny.
See? Not only are there different distros, there are even forks in the distros! How can you expect Linux to go mainstream if it is already this hard?

You've already been made fun of for saying it, but I would like to add a qualifier that I can't believe nobody ever uses.
Cause no one needs more than 100mb, YET. I don't care that my network is slowing down, it won't slow down enough to hamper my internet connection.

If few will notice, where's the risk? What is this fact to which you refer?

My computer rebooted on its own, as well. I was a little confused when I woke up to the log-in screen instead of the desktop.
They say you learn something new every day. Awesome.
Huh? I've never run tracert outside of the command line. I didn't even know it could be run in a GUI.
What are these companies that pay you if their ad gets seen even if it doesn't get a click?
Give the engineers better computers that they didn't have 30 years ago so they can create a much more sophisticated design?
The iPhone plan includes unlimited data.

That's an awfully pessimistic view.
