    Strange, I've had a 500GB Momentus XT in a Mac Mini (running OS X) for over a year and it has run flawlessly. There was also a noticeable speed improvement.

  3. Re:Amounts on The Pacific Ocean Is Polluted With Coffee · · Score: 1

    Yes, and Limit of Quantification (LOQ) is 10 times SD. In the range quoted they'd have RSD's on the order of 20-30% (according to Horwitz Horn).

  4. Re:Patent Images - WARNING on Apple Wins Mobile Patent On Displaying Lists, Documents · · Score: 1

    That site is terribly pro-Apple. The article itself sounds like it was written by them.

  10. Re:Are his customers happy? on 'Alternative Medicine' Clinic Attempts To Silence Critics · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Please define cancer. You seem to be implying it is a single disease which can be cured if we find the "right" treatment. It is actually a term used to describe a very large set of diseases which usually have little in common apart from them all involving unregulated cell growth. And yes I am a researcher involved with anticancer drugs.

  12. Re:!(1 molecule 18 atoms) on One-Molecule Nanocar Takes a Test Drive · · Score: 1

    The motor was indeed made from 18 atoms. It was butyl methyl sulfide. 13 + 4 + 1 = 18 atoms. The car just incorporated these molecules into a different larger molecule. Why the hate on nanomachines?

  20. Re:Celiac is not an allergy on Researchers Pinpoint Cause of Gluten Allergies · · Score: 1

    Your gastrointestinal tract is still classed as "outside" your body. So it is more similar to the typical allergy than you may realise.
