If you were using OS X 10.3 and older you would not need to misspell due to the inline spell-check and the dictionary app in 10.4. Not to be a dick, I just use it all the time.

It is okay but really buggy in some areas. My buddies and I were playing it last night and there is a chase scene on speed boats and we must of died like 25 times trying to get off the boat and jump onto the dock. It was really frustrating.
One thing that I have been taught about shooting digital is that it is harder to get the image that you want then with film. With film you can incorrectly expose the image and then when it comes time to print you can adjust for density. So you can over expose the shot and it will still come back from the lab looking correctly exposed because they can make those adjustments.
Digital is a lot like shooting slides just because once you open the shutter, there is your image. Granted, you can go into any number of photo suites and adjust accordingly with a digital file, but not everyone has the knowledge of a photo tech to know what channels to punch up and down accordingly.
So in my opinion there are a lot of people out there shooting digital that need to do a lot more reading before they go blow $500+ on the latest in camera hotness. They wonder why when they download their pictures they don't have the beauty and punch that the 35mm prints coming back from their local photo lab did.
Also you can just wire an RCA stereo cable with a 1/8" headphone jack on one end to the back of your deck assuming you have an AUX input (which most aftermarket decks have.) It's not pretty but it gets the job done.
Yeah I just got an email here at work saying someone or somnething tried to send it to me. Good thing my employer has antivirus or things would be a little crazy right about now.
Just run a headphone jack cable out of the aux jacks on the back of your deck and run it through the glove box or something. Im sure the Alpine deck will be kick ass, but you will still have a cord running from the iPod to your deck. I would rather it be coming out of the back of the deck personally.
Some of us don't really have a choice- the highest capacity iPod is only 40 GB. I have to deal with taking off an album every time I copy a new cd, and I am getting along great.

Sorry I am too busy reading Slashdot at work to do anything like that.
On my way through the Minneapolis / Saint Paul International airport I saw the blue screen of death on two different occasions. Hope Windows 2000 isnt installed on any of the planes.
There is so much to know about photography that it is impossible to pick up one book to cover all the important aspects. I would absolutly start by learning about film photography because most of the digital camera is based off of the film camera, even though mechanically they are very different beings.
I would check out The Camera by Ansel Adams for starters.There is a whole series of these Ansel Adams books but if you absorb The Camera you will be on your way to understanding stops and shutter speeds a whole lot better.
Here at the bank we have a web page we can go to throughout the week that you basically enter your work/breaks/vacation, and then submit at the end of the week. It's really handy and well programmed (as it should be).
I have a 30gb iPod and it is filled to the top with music. And I havent really started ripping any of my old cds to it either. I paid $500 for the 30gb in June, but the 40gb announcement does'nt really irk me off since I am in the G5 reality distortion field right now.:-)
Yes I have a 400mhz b/w G3 and it is running 10.2 GREAT. 1 gig of RAM and it runs smooth. Thats why I spent $5000 on a g5, because I know It will still be rockin in 5 years.
I use a cassette tape adapter which works pretty well. I used something similar to the iTrip and it didd'nt work too well. And I am driving a 2000 VW Jetta.
It's hard to decide whether I want to moderate or post... Coming from an ex-Ritz camera employee, if you want to go through the work of engineering all of that, printing them out and all the rest of that work Ritz does, it will cost you more (in time and materials) then it will to have Ritz do it in 1 hour. Then again you will spend less money and get better quality images if you buy a 35mm disposable camera (about $5 for 24 exp)and then get them to burn you a CD at 1600x1200 resolution (1.92 mega pixel equiv.) for ~12 dollars.
Until iTunes music store starts to carry music that is at least -somewhat- off the beaten path, I'm not going to subscribe.
Well you don't have to subscribe to anything you just need to use a Macintosh. And i wouldnt consider aphex twin off the beaten path. You can go into Sam Goody and get a lot of his cds.
All I have to say is diiva. Just try it out. You will never look for pics on the web again! Ratings, batch file downloads and a velvet interface. MacOS compatible too.
I just checked and looks like you can get it in Des Moines. So stop making Iowa look like it is worse than people think it is already! You could also do it all yourself minus Speakeasy if you can't get their access in your neck of the woods.

Don't forget other UI disasters Apple is responsible for like Home and End keys that never seem to do what you expect.
