It's probably worth noting the iPhone's camera is pretty dire in comparison to the new Sony/Nokia offerings too - 2megapixel vs. 5 megapixel. Give me a 2 MP cam with good photosensitive silicon rather than a 5 MP with cheap third-rate silicon. I'm not saying that Apple has shelled out for a better cam function, I'm just saying that MP count is like snakeoil.
H. Clinton with the powers of the Patriot Act, unitary executive, whatever, is the biggest nightmare of the right in Congress. This has been pointed out already in pundit-land. Not sure what will come of it. Probably some legislation before January 2009! Yeah, because the Patriot Act is only dangerous if Hill-dog is elected. They are such tools.
We evil socialists are so wicked that we then want to pay for your retirement and your college education! Muahahah. Not to mention doctor and hospital visit!!!11!
Based upon past history. How is this flamebait? How come if this had been said about Microsoft products, it would have been considered insightful? Based upon past history.
from the Great fire link it appear as though we have had foreign teerrorists for longer than we thought:
The fire pushed north on Monday into the heart of the City. Order in the streets broke down as rumours arose of suspicious foreigners setting fires. Meh. Like the rumours that Jews were spreading the plague by contaminating the water supplies.
Your point is valid but your argumentation is flawed beyond use. The areas they are looking into are areas with reported atrocities. Apart from that, if you look at the summary, you'll see a description of the architecture that in no way resembles the 17th centure British capital. The reason that the fire was wide spread was the proximity of the buildings and the ineptitude of the civil servants. Apart from that, there is no documentation to support or point to a massacre (except that of the Dutch and other immigrants)
The reason for New Orleans' destruction is also heavily documented as being anything but a massacre.
The point of the technology would be to act as supporting evidence instead of conclusive. If taken alone, yeah, it could be an accident or a natural occurrence. When taken in the context of a country with millions of refugees and numerous reports of pogroms, ethnic cleansing and massacres... Well, it's less likely that the explanation is accidental/natural (but of course, not impossible)
Seems like a decent deal in a market where most products are nearly obsolete before you get them home. Having this chipset gives me the ability to upgrade to 4GB RAM if need be. From what I hear of Vista, I may just want to do so.
From what I know of Vista, you'd probably be better of sticking with XP or Linux. Upgrade your memory anyway. I tried Vista for two months on my work computer, but reverted before my heart popped.
Turbo Memory is a cooler than DDR2 but I prefer Super DDR2 Turbo Hyper-Fighting Edition... it's SO much better than DDR3. I prefer Super DDR2 Alpha. Or plain vanilla Super DDR2. I'm weird that way, I know.
(Can I get a patent on RTFW?) You'd have to have a license for using my patented "method for noting thoughts, ideas, abstracts, words or sentences, coherent or incoherent."
The other day I found out that the reason half the lighting in my office had died was because of an electrical short. That reminded me to do backups. Offsite.
There's a good collection of media I back up; sure I *could* acquire again, but it would be a lot of work. My special copy of 2001: A Space Odyssey in 1080p HD especially. You're just saying that to make me drool, aren't you?
Also, what happened to closing the ASP loophole?:-) I guess the FSF doesn't want to cause too much pain to folk like Google. I haven't heard of this, could you please enlighten me?:-)
As someone only recently swapping over to Linux usage, I was wondering whether you could expand your explanation, or maybe point me to a good guide? Thank you.
Yeah, I even tried force quitting it (with an über-leet trick known best as "End Proces"), but I was told that "The operation is not valid for this process." No wonder Windows is so unstable - there's no way to be sure what runs and what doesn't!

In a year you'll be writing "(..) and remember all the furor over the iPhone glass cracks?"

Seriously, Troll?
I'd understand Overrated, but Troll is just too far off the mark.

If you have been paying attention, you would notice
little difference between the incumbent administration and the challengers.

Cos' violating him won't get you arrested, you'd just be in for a right rap in the face.
You forgot ", hot grits confirms it".
This is the first comment by Whiney Mac Fanboy following his surrender to the Greenpeace propaganda.
It's an epidemic! :-p
The bandwidth in my old office saturated the PATA drive in my laptop to such an extent that the computer locked up while downloading. Schw0000t.

Jack Bauer? Bah. Your mother is the new Jack Bauer.
Hell, the first iPhone prototypes went back in time and raised Jesus from the dead.
Too bad they didn't come back with pictures of Zombie Jesus...
(*ducks*)
