I hate glare, but you have to choose between contrast and no glare. You can get rid of glare by adjusting where you place the screen. You can't get that level of contrast with a matte screen.
I spend maybe 6-8 hours once every 2 years or so - and 3/4 of that is because I have an audio chipset with no driver support. Otherwise, it just works. I don't upgrade to every single cat or national park. Unibeast/Multibeast handles everything you need if you pick the right hardware.
What does that have to do with anything at all? You never looked into it 17 years ago - it may have had everything to do with the age of the equipment at that time.
It's better now. Get a good EFI bootloader (Clover) going and you can run the Apple updates directly - all the major differences between your hardware and the Mac hardware are abstracted away by the bootloader. You have to do major release upgrades by building a thumb drive with some extra tools, but otherwise it just works. That is, at least if you're buying hardware that already has OS support.
The motherboard is basically the computer - northbridge (now just CPU) and southbridge are where most of the driver issues are. It doesn't matter which hard drive you buy, which SATA optical drive you might need, and it's easy to see which GPUs have Mac support.
Final Cut Pro Logic Pro Adobe Creative Suite still runs slightly better (in my opinion) A little less bloat
But really, I want an OS that has loads of commercial software available while still having a terminal with Bash out of the box. Being able to SSH into it is a huge plus too. If you're just looking for a development OS, Linux fits perfectly. But there are only a few good choices for video editing. I've been on Hackintosh for many years (I played around in Leopard and made it full time for Snow Leopard, which was the first version to run reliably on standard hardware).
It still exists. It's a $19.99 upgrade to Mac OS X from their app store. The only difference between the desktop and server edition were the software packages and some settings anyway.
What makes you think that the shipping company has access to the sale price? They have box dimensions and weight - that's usually it.
Shipping company is likely not "doing business" in the city either. Driving a truck through and throwing something out the window does not count as "business" by any definition I've ever seen.
The formula the city chooses can set that tax rate at 100% of the price the Delivery company charges for the delivery, excluding an exempt amount, which they determine based on a benchmark of the price for that same delivery to other cities in the state.
That would only raise the price to shipping to that city. It would not lower it to match other cities in the area. You can't take away state sales tax at the city level. They would just be further raising the price to their residents.
It wasn't a horrible mess. Developers made horrible messes with it. And browsers did try to make sense of imperfect xHTML. I don't know of one that wouldn't render something when it came across errors.
I still type HTML in somewhat valid xHTML, even when incorporating HTML5-specific tags - because the alternative just isn't readable.
Even storing credit card data at all (instead of processor authorization tokens) is a huge red flag unless they want a mountain worth of additional compliance work.
It would seem easy from a business perspective to just assume that maybe they should just cut hours back if the employee doesn't need a full day to complete the tasks. This would provide the time for the employee to do these projects but this typically also comes with a reduction in salary.
Pay someone less for being better? That incentivizes being slow.
Are there any capacitive touch matte screens? No.

If that's professional, I don't want to be one.
Because you threw it out without looking at it. You only learn one way of doing something and if it doesn't fit, you can't handle it.
And what is with the linking on marketshare data? Statistics have nothing to do with suitability.
I know this is pre-OS X, but you had a HUGE knowledge gap.
Statistics have nothing to do with OS X's worthiness today.

stick it in an anti-static bag alongside an OS X DVD
Even whole Macs don't come with those. Just enable Internet recovery on the motherboard.
Or one of these
you can use iTunes in Windows
You can, but it didn't port that well. It's not quite as much of a bloated, smelly mess in OS X.

Which means it may have had everything to do with the age of the equipment, not the platform. And you just wasted everyone's time with your comments.
calculated based on the sales price
What makes you think that the shipping company has access to the sale price? They have box dimensions and weight - that's usually it.

I use it for casual reading of entertainment (Feedly client):
Not Always Right
xkcd
etc
And I use it in the form of Podcasts for personal and professional (BeyondPod for Android).
They can't change the price of the sale, which is what you suggested:
ordinances being passed prohibiting the shipping company from charging a rate higher than the prevalent rate to people with an address
because it's a horrible mess
It wasn't a horrible mess. Developers made horrible messes with it. And browsers did try to make sense of imperfect xHTML. I don't know of one that wouldn't render something when it came across errors.

Those are percentages of their container. Just make sure the container flows the way you want and it will fill 100% of that container.
ordinances to regulate interstate commerce? I don't think so.
It's all going there anyway.
I'm well aware of what happens in practice. I won't change the definition for them, though.
I guess they've never heard of one-way syncing and assume it would change the source data.
Even storing credit card data at all (instead of processor authorization tokens) is a huge red flag unless they want a mountain worth of additional compliance work.
And then they store it unencrytped....
