America over has over indulged itself in praising athletic hero's, music and movie stars. As a product of Arizona k-12 education in the 90's, it is safe for me to say that more than enough funding went to the highschool football teams rather than new math and science books. Nothing ever intriguing was taught in the fields of math and science, and all of the hope and weight of success was balanced on the small chance of becoming a select few of American "super-stars".
I love math and science, and through the eyes of a senior CE major public education did nothing to improve my learning potential or popularize the idea of science as an avenue for prosperity or fun.

The signal weaknesses weren't my primary concern about the 3.4 version. My problems were with actually connecting to my networks, and being blatantly dropped. Sometimes this resulted in me having to reboot my system.
With this update I could not wake from sleep and automagically get onto my home network. Other times I would be dropped, have to turn off Airport, and then turn it back on to even see the network. This didn't fix my problems a majority of the time. There is no real excuse about signal strength, as my powerbook is a foot away from the wireless router. My room mate had experienced the same problems. We both have 12" 1Ghz powerbooks.
Please, please PLEASE post your hardware when you are reporting problems/talking about recent updates. It gives the rest of us "bleeding edgers" a little more room to breathe, and also allows us to submit proper bugs to Apple if need be.
Besides an informed decision is the right decision.....
I just saw that the U of A is offereing a course for Objective-C/Cocoa. Unfortunately you have to be in the CS major to take it.
Not much listed about the course, but
here it is in all its.... glory?
