Can't the governments just get along? For heaven sakes they can both use the subway maps on iPods... they were able to get along with the Mexican vs Puerto Rican thing. I mean, seriously, are NY and SF trying to be "gay?" I know one already is, and the other's not too far "behind." ^_^
Steve Jobs is worth well over a billion dollars, and he is used to getting his way. Name an exec who has as much money as Mr. Steve? Maybe Paris Hilton, but if that is the face of the RIAA I would rather keep my dick out of it.
Steve's Money > Record Exec's Money
Steve's Karma > > RIAA karma
What I want to see record companies do is film Paris Hilton having sex with all different kinds of iPods. That might make them more money than saying, "Screw you Steve- I'm going home."
We could construct a weapon of ultimate destruction called a "Death Star." It would be a gigantic chemical laser capable of destroying a country the size of North Korea. Actually, I think that's from a James Bond flick....
oh well, I just want something that blows stuff up in space! I want my tax dollars to support something useful in the future.
We are very simple people with very small penis. We cut 10000 jobs to make average penis size larger, more like Apple or Microsoft penis. This make competition fairer over all.
15 years ago, you say? Huh. Where did you get your time machine?
I thought the same thing when I saw that... how the hell do you make brushed metal when there are almost no graphics programs capable of doing that (save Adobe Photoshop). There was no gimp in 1990, scanners essentially did not exist, nor was there enough memory on the computers of the time to store that much data for an entire website, not to mention bandwidth constraints. Also I'm sure there were lots of Netscape users at the time, unless you count lynx as "brushed metal."
I do have a valid claim to the brushed metal, though- in 1997 I created a homepage for my StarCraft Clan. The archive of this site is sitting somewhere with all those AOL CD's and CD's that "you think you might use so you don't know if you want to throw them away yet." Created with (Pirated!) Adobe Photoshop 5.0. And yes I had to install Photoshop from multiple disquettes.
At least that's how I think the time-line goes.... T.t
Apple has long wanted to get into the mobile phone business, but it is extemely risky for them to go off on their own and try a product that could end up like the Newton.
Apple partnered with Motorola not because they think Motorola can design a better phone or a better interface, but actually to insulate themselves from a horrible failure, should that happen.
Apple will probably make its own cellphones eventually, but right now the conservative decision (and the correct decision) would be to go with someone who is already in the phone business, see how the product does, see what its flaws are, then improve with its own Shiny Apple iPodPhone.
The iPod Nano is so small I wonder if Apple also includes a notice (like the iPod shuffle) like "Do not eat iPod nano."
Speaking of eating, Apple needs to sell a candy-like spray so one can "suck" on the iPod nano like a lollipop. Cherry, orange, and grape would be excellent starters.
And if you're wondering about putting an iPod in your mouth, just imagine the other places an iPod could go on (or in!) the body.
That white plastic casing on the iPod is actually a polymer bonded with cocaine, no wonder you were addicted. Merely touching the surface gives you a high.
You should also know that every tuesday at 1 Infinite loop Cupertino, CA, about noon-time, Apple employees can actually be seen smoking left over and returned iPod plastic in an orgy of love for their creation- outside right next to the Mac Café.
I have a secret, not so secret anymore- I downloaded the Britney Spears "Oops I did it Again!" video off of apple's website in 2003 and redistributed it without consulting ms. spears. Quicktime Pro is great after you realize what you can do with it.
Paris Hilton *almost certainly* would not mind, do you think Britney would?
Colleges now typically use a 5-year plan for incoming freshmen, especially for majors heavily related to electronics or chemical engineering. While those two fields tend to be the top money earners, CpE is not that far behind.
Kids like me don't want to take four semesters of calculus, two semesters of physics, two electronic circuit classes, and two electromagnetism classes. Not to mention many of the electives that were 4 credits back in the day are not 3 credits, making us take even more classes.
So the question arises: Why be an Engineer when you can get your MBA sooner and manage a whole project and let the few nerds sitting in the front row do the dirty work?
What is the incentive for the person who is merely looking for a buck rather than pursuing their passion?
Eudora, the "sendmail" of email programs (*NIX users TOTALLY know what I am talking about) does have one interesting feature. It displays little chili icons in the top right corner of the screen when it detects bad words or negative thoughts.
It saved my life, because I was going to tell my F^&(ing professor to go *&^%^ his &^^* in a giant %$%#$. A dialog box popped up and asked me if I wanted the message.... I decided not to send it.... meh I got a B+.
Obi-wan used an R4 droid, not the R2 droid. Anakin Skywalker uses the R2 droid when piloting a fighter.
After watching "A New Hope" again, it was obvious that Obi-wan could have forgotten all about the R2 droid. His quote that he "[N]ever... owned a droid before" in A New Hope is true, as Obi-wan's droid (R4) was destroyed in "Revenge of the Sith."
As for the rest of the commentary, technilogical advancements made during the period between movies account for the "Hyperspace Ring." For example, in eposides 4-6, the Empire moves from older TIE Fighters to newer TIE Interceptors- and that clearly shows how the technology in StarWars is always advancing.
I have never heard of an "ocean engineer," as opposed to chemical engineer or electrical engineer. Can one really engineer an ocean, or do we need a more politically correct title that accounts for trivialities.... Maybe something like "Cold Water Systems Engineer?"
i dunno i'm sleepy. zzzzz
I speak fluent french, however I cannot stand the sound of "sans" used in the language. In italy, sans = senza- sounds much cooler and more romantic, doesn't it? Unfortunately Frace will not change its language merely to appease me.... t,t
Assuming someone puts a bunch of songs on their phone and plays them, the power consumption for the hard drive and the speakers would be too much for a cell phone battery. From what i've seen, phone batteries are very small, usually rated at 3.6V.
This one may be a 5.0V, but nonetheless it will sacrafice size and weight (not to mention battery life) if it were used as a music player.
Only so many Watts of power can be crammed into an electronic device these days, and I seriously doubt that one could get even 6 hours of continual, uninterrupted music without a power adapter plugged in. The hard drive and the RAM just consume too much power.

Probably can't get an Apple product that "Never Beaks." That one belongs to Larry Ellison.
Buy a copy of DNS and BIND, Fourth Edition. Know what you are talking about before you let your fingers make you look bad.

I think Steve Jobs would have it be more like: "That iPod nano looks insanely slick!"

Soon the Japanese will be referring to "Steve-sama"- Lord Steve

Get a spatula and scrape that crap off!
Do you have any idea how much that would cost me???

Amen brother- I'm 20 and when I see a 12-16 year old play I'm thinking they are high on crack. What ever happened to weed?
Apple has made Web Objects available to ADC members (Developer connection) for some time now, and that was a free download.

Maybe Apple should get into the food or drink business.. there would be an interesting lawsuit over "Apple" Juice.
