my apple tv is awesome. it's the best netflix interface of any entertainment device i've seen. for $99 it's much more useable than roku or whatever blu ray / tv app.
looking forward to ios5 so I can mirror my ipad to my tv using apple tv.
The good faith and credit of the United States. Scoff if you must, because we're no longer on the gold standard! And China owns the treasury bills! Arrgh! Insert other hyperbolic claim!
truth is there's not a single soul backing up bitcoin. I would sooner use Lindens.
when i first heard about icloud i thought it was going to be a dud becuase it only applies to purchases from the itunes store. but the itunes match $25 covers all of your songs, which is a prerequisite for success.
who is this average american? even the small 3g data caps ~250mb/month are good enough for 95% of people. and that's just throughput, not files worth saving. the average american will never ever fill up 5GB.
so what you're saying is that you have a niche / specialty need, and there's a niche / specialty product to suit that need. Congratulations! Many people with similar needs are not that lucky.
they're starting to lock in their HDs with non-standard pins and sensors, so you cant swap them out yourself. is this a big deal or not? i don't want to pay premium dollars to upgrade a commodity component. but at least on my current mbp i can access the hd and memory without voiding the warrantee. cutting out the battery would void the warantee, but i'm way out of waranee anyway (only 1 year without applecare, speaking of premium dollars)
the word is that apple is keeping a 30% cut of the money, with the remainder split between record cos and publishers. it's essentially money for nothing. they get ongoing subscription revenue based on music you had already purchased. win win. I don't see how there is any risk here for the record cos.
i'm not going to argue the merits of your post, since we'd both be arguing with a distinct lack of facts. But the truth is that the record companies have the rights to the music, so if they don't like the online arrangement they're taking their ball and going home. mp3.com failed at the most important sales job -- getting the music companies on board. jobs extended his rds and convinced the record cos to buy in. and so you have this new service that's supported and works well.
As for #4, I believe it is "4. Pay the record companies a boat load of cash." which is all they really want. can you blame them?
I don't understand how they'll do the app store purchases for older operating systems. I thought you needed snow leopard to do app store. anyone hear anything about this?
I agree, I've had a pretty good experience. I like that I know how much MobileMe costs. $99 per year. No ads, no scanning my emails to profile me to make more money off of me. How much does gmail cost? it is free in dollars, but the other costs are not known.
what I'm excited about in the new version is searching of message bodies, not just headers. They presented it in the context of the ipad mail app, but hopefully it will be present in the online version as well.
umm.. not really. itunes match provides online music for the files you already have on your computer. so you're not going to be able to steal anything from the cloud that you haven't already stolen.
But South African apartheid applied to its own citizens. Israel probably doesn't consider the people of gaza / west bank to be israeli citizens. The people probably wouldn't consider it either!
So it's not like israel has jewish beaches and arab beaches. The comparison doesn't seem particularly apt to me.
I don't get it. Israel is generally considered a country in the middle east, not a part of South Africa from 20 years ago. The Oracle says:
Apartheid was a political system in South Africa, which was in use in the 20th century, mainly between the 1940s and the 1980s. In the system, the people of South Africa were divided by their race. Even though black people were the majority in the country, a small number of white people ruled them and held most political offices. There were laws that kept up the racial separation. The system of apartheid in South Africa was banned in 1994.

oooh burrn
I'll be more than willing to trade in my android tablet for a windows 8 tablet.
Have you heard of iPad? Check it out next time your comparison shopping between android and windows tablets.
You can make money bitcoin mining, as long as you have the hardware already (paying off your hardware costs seems unlikely).
so that's a no, then. or perhaps you can hack into PSN and harness the power of all ps3s worldwide to crunch coin for you! #winning!
What 'backs up' the dollar?

While your reply said MDMA... my post said Ecstasy.
hair, consider yourself split!
wtf is a vm/postfix/dovecot? that's why. and value of time. I'd pay $99 to avoid 10 hours of drudgery. And guaranteed uptime.

bahahahaha awesome. burrn on troll!
meh. netflix has a native app, so you don't need silferfish for that. what else is there? photosynth? i think they have a native app as well.

but haven't you heard of the holocaust? Jews need a homeland.
