Does anyone doubt that Apple doesn't have hundreds of marketing drones checking their Slashdot accounts for moderation points whenever their products are mentioned? No, I don't doubt that apple doesn't have hundreds of marketing drones to gain/. moderator access. Perhaps you didn't mean to do the double negative thing.
Maybe it would have worked better if they hadn't made it so heavy. I think something that is several million pounds might have problems with cracking the tubes that the internets are made out of.

Not that much worse than what non-free range chickens go through. Ever seen what a large scale chicken farm is like?
While I don't really like how animals are treated in large scale farms, I don't think vegetarianism is really the answer. People need a little bit of respect for the things they put in their bodies. Maybe eat a little less meat and buy from local farmers who raise and slaughter their own livestock. It is probably a little bit better for you, and actually has taste (especially chicken).
What they would gain is true platform independence. Well, the only way I could think of them gaining true platform independence would be for adobe to buy something like parallels and sell applications as virtual machines that run inside whatever host OS. As long as the VM allowed for drag and drop and cut and paste between the host and VM applications, it would be a lot easier than creating a whole new desktop environment. Also, people could use the web browser and ancillary programs of their choosing.
Love him or hate him, one thing Jobs knows how to do is build anticipation, and manage publicity. He'll take bad press for a while simply so that he can sit on some announcement to greatest spin effect. Yeah. Prior to today's announcement, I had been thinking for a while that there was some sort of SDK in the works.
Adding features like this after the initial "iPhone Killers" have been released keeps other manufacturers from being able to really target the iPhone. Also, I feel that a real polished SDK of the same quality as Xcode might just take that long, especially with the coming release of Leopard. This, as well as other features which I'm sure will be added in the future also allow Apple ways to make the phone a better seller if it didn't sell as well as expected initially.
The only problem I see is when the hardware itself gets updated. If future models are much different from the current ones, it will probably irk a few folks if they can't run new apps on the 1st gen hardware.

There's still plenty of fun to be had in 2D, but it doesn't really "sell" systems and it means you have to compete on how fun a game is rather than how good the graphics are.
Yeah, but apple's been doing these kind of refuse to install lockouts for years, and they still only do it at the installer level really. The code that determines if a computer can handle installing Leopard is in the installer, and is trivial to bypass using XPostFacto
Why is the speed of an OS relevant? Aren't the apps really what the end user sees? I would imagine that the responsiveness of Photoshop, once running, is of more importance than the responsiveness of opening Photoshop initially.
I don't know. But it's a good idea. Monitor the unencrypted link of some encrypted traffic in order to find out sensitive information. You can kind of assume that Tor traffic will have a greater concentration of interesting stuff going on than regular internet traffic.
Haha, well, if you actually like the nipple I guess you're stuck. I can't understand why people like them, is it like a cult or something? Yeah, it's called the "Cult of Heterosexual Men and Lesbians". They're all about some nipples.

Seems like the perfect song for unveiling a useless vanity project such as this.
He had one of those phones you shake to see how much liquid is in them, which indicates battery life. His was empty, so he filled it up with gasoline.
Yes, and though the flow of water surrounding these things can be directed, these Horta do not readily absorb moisture.
Thus, you can lead a Horta water, but you can't make it drink.
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.

If it's a solar cell doesn't it have to absorb some wavelength of electromagnetic radiation?
Then it isn't invisible, is it?

Right, the joke was that canadian money used to be worth less than the U.S. dollar, but now it isn't. Reread my post.

Yeah, I have a 6822 which is like the fore runner of the E70. Nice keyboard.
I hope so. I would love it if they put them out on DVD with a commentary track by the director, actors, and the SFX guy.
Because there are good projects like the iPhone already here.
