The real problem is what if I want to be a blogger in Virginia where the protections are not the same as California. I guess it was and still is a real threat to free speech. There should be a federal law against SLAPP lawsuits.
Disagree, the democrats are where the Republicans were last election. I'm just talking about their differences in monetary policy seems to be the same.
He'll O even followed the same advice B and gave those 1% the bailout. He should have let them all fail instead of using tax payer money to prop them up. He made the same mistake x 10 that Bush did here.
So, once again, they get elected by saying different stuff, but do the same things.
If what you say about health care is true it just proves it goes even further back. The democrats have had control of all houses and the Presidency and couldn't get this passed? They must not have wanted it passed despite what they have said.
--I for one am sick to death of both moonbat liberals and neo-con Republicans - who claim to have different platforms, but really, both extremes are so far apart from what their party platforms used to stand for that the end result shows that they are simply the same horse painted different colors.--
I think you meant donkey or maybe elephant of a different color but not a horse.
Even if you are right about that post I replied the same way as well. The staples shouldn't be a problem, you just gotta cut more holes. An old trick is just to hide your cat5 to cat7 under the baseboards. All he would need is maybe a punchdown tool and 110 punchdown board. Then just by any patch cables instead of wiring those yourself. It's cheap if you do it yourself.
Definitely, remember 10Base-5? One was thicknet and the other was thinnet. I believe it looked like a garden hose. Maybe you could do it with the right equipment at each end of the cable to convert like maybe a cable modem on each end of each cable might do it.
No, he don't mean it, but come one doesn't Japan own just as much treasury bills and other American debt as China does?
But...that wasn't the point I was making. What's left of jobs over here a fixing to get shipped to China like those guy from Apple.
As far as a trade war with the US, that's the whole world baby. We have to have a giant military and they don't. So they can devote resources to other things like infrastructure.
I do see a quickly rising poor class in the US that used to be called the middle class. You see it doesn't even occur to those less than 1% upper class people who are running things that this is a bad idea because they feel safe you know like those guy's in France did during the Great Depression. At the point Poland was invaded, they no longer had the balls to do anything but hunker down.
If France had of invaded Germany in 1939, the war would have been over by 1940, but they were economically defeated first. Why? Because of class polarization causing division. The upper classes can allow a middle class or not. If not, then who will fight for their country when the time really comes?
I figure that it will, when even we can't afford to buy anything from them. They seem to be in same spot as the US was in the 60's. It's about time the 70's hit them.
I don't think even China can finance our debt this time and soon they will not need Apple to sell their own products. Most of the manufacturing 1 out of 3 has left the US. So now, all we have is R & D with those companies taking more of the profit than the manufactures in China. This isn't limited to the US. The last Nokia phone I saw said made in China.
IF they can make good stuff and pay their people less, it will not be long before a middle class develops and maybe we can sell to them.
China is starting to use other sources though like the 3 gorges dam and nuke plants. FWIW some of those Canadian Nuke plants use heavy water as a moderator instead of plain water as the US does.
It just doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. These things produce so little CO2 compared with the automobile it's not going to matter if they burn coal because they are few. Now the CO poisoning problem is a non-issue in those large arenas. Many people get much more CO from their gas log fireplace.
All electric cars are what really need to be worked on at full speed. They can run plenty fast on our existing infrastructure and for most purposes they now have enough range. Just getting the battery prices down and the longevity of batteries up are heading this way thanks to laptops and cell phones. Now it's time to kick in LI ION production into high and get that price down to a point where anyone pretty much can afford to get one. Just this by itself would go a long way towards solving this issue.
Now what to build to give the extra electricity. Wind, Solar, and if we have to Nuclear. Why can't Goldman Sachs work on that to make money instead of taxing us? Financing that on a massive scale is not the problem. It's just the will to do it.
Yeah, and they have in the past produced some parts for Dell? I really like their own stuff better than the stuff they did for the other two (we'll way more than that).
--Apple products are generally easy to use, often do certain things extremely well, and are physically attractive. Moreover, the components don't have to be ordered separately and put together by the user, which lots of people don't want to do.--
I'm not an Apple hater exactly but WTF? You can go online and go to Dell and get everything right at the same time if that's what you want. Apples and Dells probably source their parts from the same or similar factories. The physically attractive thing we'll I give them that but don't you have to plug in USB cables to an Apple too when you unpack the stuff and plug it up to power and I don't think Apple makes battery backups and certain other devices that you have to purchase seperate.
Apple had one big innovation IMO other than the Apple II being sold to schools. That was the 1st MAC. With that you had desktop publishing. That's a big one and also they had MIDI ports early on and grabbed the music people. Those people have been loyal users ever since. Now days there is not so much difference between eith the PC world or Apple world except that Apple has a Nix OS in it's favor but OTOH they haven't cracked into gaming yet but expect it, but those Direct X developers are hard to get to switch and the CAD people on the PC.
I don't really like jobs sense of style except in calligraphy. I think he had some calligraphy classes and now thinks he's an artist but it must be art since many call it that. I don't really know what art is, but I know what I like. I like some of their stuff and some of those pink iPODs are just sickening to look at.
Finally, someone gets an A+. That damn program is more annoying than almost anything else. It's almost spyware, trying to get me to add iTUNES or buy the paid version. Completely all opt out and no opt in at least on the PC. I wouldn't know about Apple since I dunno who is worse right now. Microsoft adding plugins to firefox is probably just as bad. Even Google is getting evil these days. I like the old days better when the entertainment companies didn't try to make things too.
That's the thing that should have sold well. Poor marketing I guess. You get those music guys behind it and it will sell whatever it is. Apple seems to have them in their pocket at the moment. People don't wont to buy stuff to do work. They want entertainment so that they can forget about how damn hard they are working to buy something stupid that is going to be a doorstop in a few days. I think the proper term is market economy.
Stuff needs to be made good but not too good and if no one knows about it, how can you sell even one? So marketing is important though a tad evil.
At the time, I thought that to be the best product that Microsoft ever produced. The kicker for me at that time was that the xbox had a hard drive and the PS2 did not. What made it a money loser was that they quit making it too soon. Just because the xbox 2 or 3 or whatever came out, doesn't mean they shouldn't have still made the old stuff like Sony did.
Now the hot one is the PS3, but it will be a few years more until everyone has real good 1080p games. I just think some PC games that are much older are much better and an even higher resolution and frame rate. So while the PC may made less and less, I don't think it will ever go away completely. There is still one horse manufacturer and maybe one buggy manufacturer and now there is no competition.
Anything, can be sold to anybody with the right tactics.
We'll, I don't think it really matters if it succeeds or not. I wouldn't say worst product of all time but the iPOD would have been nothing without iTUNES. How could we predict that Jobs could could get a deal like that? I think if Microsoft were to suddenly come out with a player that you could legally download everything the Apple store will let plus lets say "the beatles", then they would be deemed popular just because of that.
Any other company would have been killed out by all off the poor equipment that Apple used to make. Crazy baby boomers is all I can say. So that's their market and the boomers have money. So maybe that's a good one to tap.

Damn mine didn't either, I guess modding might be better for me today.

No way the impedance is all wrong. It wouldn't work at a without an cable modem adapter if then.
Definitely, remember 10Base-5? One was thicknet and the other was thinnet. I believe it looked like a garden hose. Maybe you could do it with the right equipment at each end of the cable to convert like maybe a cable modem on each end of each cable might do it.
If you can't find it here they probably no longer make it though.

No cat7 for gigabit ethernet.

Hi yawl, I think he means speaking American.
I figure that it will, when even we can't afford to buy anything from them. They seem to be in same spot as the US was in the 60's. It's about time the 70's hit them.

I'm not saying he ain't a little bit cool, but not totally. He's a poor dresser. I don't care what anyone says, yuck.
Yeah, and they have in the past produced some parts for Dell? I really like their own stuff better than the stuff they did for the other two (we'll way more than that).
The Zune don't have "the beatles". I thought about that and yeah if there are some iPAD apps they will succeed. A lot depends upon the developers.
It's like the Newton, there are some followers still.
Actually, what happened to AOL? They died really. Some other entity just bought their brand.

Foobar is much better now that Apple has done that at least for the PC.
