    15 seconds on google. Search string: "displayport to mini displayport cable"

    It took me less time to find that "non-existent" cable than it did for you to write your post.

  16. Re:Ok, so how about this idea... on GE Announces OLED Manufacturing Breakthrough · · Score: 1

    My oldest son melted down in the grocery store once. When it happened, my wife walked away and continued shopping two aisles over. When he realized she left, he ran to find her and started again. She told him to stop and that she would leave him in the store, not just the aisle if he did it again. Every child is different, but as a parent of three (fairly) well behaved boys, I feel much of the behavior problems I see in public are a result of parents who didn't discipline their children from the start. The experts that say "don't tell them 'No' before they are two, it stifles them", should be trapped on a 14 hour plane ride with those little shits.

    You can make your own choice on this matter. Wear your seatbelt or get a ticket and pay the fine. Do you mind being told you can't drive while wearing earplugs (in California)?

  19. Re:I hope this helps you figure it out. on iPhone's "Mystery App" Is H.264 YouTube · · Score: 1

    I showed a friend the iPhone YouTube ad. He asked if the iPhone had 3G. "Nope." "That sucks. Let me show you how fast movies download to my BlackJack". Waiting, waiting, waiting. "Well, usually they are faster." Waiting, waiting, then noise. "Hey, it started. Where the hell did it go? There it is. Wait a minute, it's gone again."

    Somehow I suspect using the iPhone won't be quite that frustrating (except for the waiting part).

    Credit cards are free money for a month. Work the float, and pay them off every month. I don't care what the interest rate is on my credit cards. If the merchant gave me a cash discount I would use cash, but none do (or can - per their agreements with the credit card companies, IIUC).
