Yep. Art should be an accurate realistic depiction of the real world, and a happy one at that. How can these so-called 'artists' only see and depict things that make us scared, shameful, and depressed?
Either these 'artists' really do see things in this way and believe in what they represent. Then one has only to ask how the defect in vision arose, and if it is hereditary Homeland Security will have to see to it that so ghastly a defect of vision shall not be allowed to perpetuate itself. Or if they do not believe in the reality of such impressions but seek on other grounds to burden the nation with this humbug, then it is a matter for a criminal court.
...when NASA inspired me, and the projects in which it was engaged filled me with wonder and curiosity. Nowadays the only thing that amazes me about NASA is the bureaucracy.
Well, and the big explosions of course.

I love Keynote... but I'm just not really into Pages no matter how many times I've used it.
I think Pages has been and is misrepresented as a word processor. It's really a page-design and layout tool. Rather than "Apple's word processor" I think of it as "Indesign lite".
Keynote, of course, stomps Powerpoint in almost every possible way.
if* the rumors are true (and backed with substantial evidence) about Iran sending troops over to Iraq, that can be construed as an act of war
That bunch of gutless pussies -- oops, I mean "Congress" -- has already given BushCo a blank cheque to do anything it wants to restore order in Iraq. Thus, all BushCo needs to do to justify war with Iran is to invent -- oops, I mean "find" -- evidence that Iran is HINDERING the restoration of order in Iraq. An act, or declaration, of war is totally unnecessary. The gutless pussies have already given BushCo the authority to do whatever it wants.
Google is an advertising company. It sells eyeballs, which it has a lot of in virtue of having a good search algorithm. How is there an open-source alternative?
Take a look at New Orleans, think about Hurricane Katrina, and ask yourself if you really think that government GIVES A SHIT about poor people. The only possible use for a poor person in Bush's America is to have him shipped off to Iraq, because we can't have rich white folks' kids getting blown up by IEDs now, can we?

It is if you lost money on every sale.
It's gonna be pretty hard to be a history student if you can't look up "Genocide".

So, what is going to happen when M$ screws up and starts blocking products that are 'genuine'?
What do you mean "when"? It happens on an almost weekly basis.
Welcome to the real world.
If you're looking for a remote-support app, I cannot recommend Fog Creek Copilot highly enough.
(Not a shill, just a happy customer whose ass was saved by a $5 Copilot licence)
Dude, the guy's from CROMWELL. I'm amazed he worked out what the devices were.
Heinlein, Clarke, Asimov Any parent who does not provide his/her child with a set of the Heinlein Juveniles does not deserve descendants.
You are wrong by at least 1. I have a lot of Neil Diamond in my digital music collection.
Each version of OS X has run faster on the same hardware than the version that preceded it.
Since when is a quarter of a billion dollars a slap on the wrist?
When it's imposed upon an entity that makes 13 billion dollars every three months and records that against offshore subsidiaries that pay no tax?
Just a thought.

What, you think Bush has even HEARD of Google?
So all it takes is ONE COMMA to render you dyslexic?
Whoa.
Your google-fu is weak, grasshopper.

"Comfort to the enemy"? Did you guncrazy oil-addicted religious wack-jobs declare war on Iran already?
