Abortion comes down to whether or not you feel that the fetus is a human being, deserving of all of the rights and privileges that all human beings have. If you believe this to be true, then abortion is murder, and should be treated as such. If you don't believe that the fetus is a human, then there is no good reason to ban abortion.
Don't think that all people who are against abortion want to take away the choices of other people. They have a fundamental difference in perception of the fetus, which leads them to this belief. To them, the assertion that "You're trying to take away a person's right to choose." is equivalent to saying, "You're trying to take away a person's right to randomly shoot people on the street." It's murder, to pro-lifers. I always wondered why pro-lifers never blow up execution tracts.
windows and linux are not motherboards- apple is apple AIO (motherboard, cpu, os) and no variance is tolerated- So all Apples have the same MoBo? And you can't replace the CPU? And you can't run another OS?
You may not be aware, but most motherboards only work with a limited range of CPUs, and hardly any with both Intel and AMD processors. So much for the "open" PC architecture.
"it really is Apple's fault since they make the battery impossible or expensive to replace."
Yeah, because that $20 battery and 15 minutes to change it was sooooo much more expensive and impossibler than $40 I had to pay for the battery in my Sony Erikson phone...come to think about it, I changed the battery in my iPod once in 5 years where as I've changed the battery in my phone every other year. Which gets more use? Not to mention that an easily replaceable battery is also an easily disposable battery.
If you were following this, you would have known that Greenpeace scored Apple really low due to other companies having given commitments to reduce this or that whereas Apple had not given such commitments. Basically Apple was being secretive and GP didn't like that. Apple likes to do stuff, not say stuff. And that serves them pretty well when it comes to the market because they get a lot of free publicity that way.
In this case, I think Apple doesn't really give much away in terms of new products while still being able to publish a timeline for reducing harmful substances used in their products.
I didn't realize I could get a 10% discount on a new iPod by trading in my old one. If my current one ever breaks, I will keep that in mind. Well, to quote TF open letter:
In one environmental group's recent scorecard, Dell, HP and Lenovo all scored higher than Apple because of their plans (or "plans for releasing plans" in the case of HP). In reality, Apple is ahead of all of these companies in eliminating toxic chemicals from its products.
Example: In 2007 HP stated that they will remove PVC from all their packaging. Apple did this 12 years ago.
Yes, but the Cingular "deal" is apparently with no price reduction. It's just a temporary initial monopoly on the device. Which will probably be less useful if Apple don't manage to keep the June 11 date.
If they coded Rosetta properly it shouldn't really take much of a transition to go to AMD except the change in hardware. The software isn't really the problem - the hardware is. They would have to switch over all their models to AMD compatible motherboards before Intel even gets a hunch and stops shipping them CPUs.
But then again, why would Apple buy/switch to AMD - all we heard from them lately (apart from losing money) was how the next generation of CPUs will again be much faster than Core2 chips (if only because they will use non-shared cache) once they get out.
Those are your real numbers. Don't rely on wikipedia for everything- it's not a Bible. How can you bash Wikipedia as not being a Bible for using ancient data?;-)
No, he meant the schoolgirls should have uniforms, 'stead of those loose-fitting low-cut tops the guy was looking down. You mean they shouldn't be wearing these before middle school? (GP said "in front of the elementary school")
Star Trek has taught me that all alien life will look like humans except with different forehead wrinkles and skin. So you missed all those episodes with silicon based lifeforms, aquatic lifeforms, crystal lifeforms, energetic beings, foggy lifeforms...
If one is "no way as efficient" as the other, how can it be a draw? Because of the three paragraphs between "it's in no way as efficient as OS X's Exposé feature" and "We're calling this one a draw." With one paragraph going on about how the three differently coloured buttons in the top left of a window don't look any different.
Seems to me that a terrorist hit on one of these trains would be much easier than hitting an airliner. At those speeds, a lot of damage could be done. And the terrorist would not even have to kill himself in the process. All else aside - why exactly would a terrorist need to kill himself to bring down a plane?
Thats a huge amount of money to lay a short track. How do they plan to recoup initial costs of $454 Million a mile of track? Wow, what a math genius - you can divide total cost of project by length of track! And you don't even have to care about all the rest, like trains and stations!
But to answer your question, for one they expect the train to be equally profitable as the Shinkansen. They also expect high income from the services and stores at the stations. See this report named "Features and Economic and Social Effects of The Shinkansen" for what they got out of the huge amount of money they paid for the Shinkansen.
I think they do, if they sold 1 billion track and 100 million Ipods that means they sold 10 tracks per Ipod sold or about 1 CDs worth of music. So I would not consider Itunes store a success, the Ipod is a success. If you do not consider Itunes store a success, what do you think about those stores who rent out music?
A lot of "us" windows developers have been programming on it since before it became the "EVIL SATAN" often portrayed here on slashdot and make an excellent living at it. Well, for many this was the starting point.
In addition, once this road is crossed -- impeaching for , and every time the president/vp is in office, and a different party has a majority in the senate and house, you'll see an impeachment. I get the fealing Ken Starr was send back from the future to prevent any impeachment of the Bush junta based on the "can't impeach twice in a row" rule you imply exists.

Yeah, trying to fix a broken registry is SOOO much easier.

Absolutes are alway wrong. </sarcasm>

Could you try to make some sense? Or at least stay on topic?

So, no subsidy. Or is there? http://5thirtyone.com/archives/771

Why would you want to listen to music anyway, we are all going to die.
"Error -39" apparently means "file corrupt", I discovered above. Intuitive.
Yeah, those Apple adds obviously talk about an OS that hasn't been sold for 5 years. Sure.Server? But his company uses XP Home throughout. Why would somebody need Server?
