So... I can either not do this burst-of-sound thing and guarantee my demise, or I can and take the chance that there's may be other hostile forces nearby to finish me off. I'd take my chances with option #2, since I'd have a much greater chance of surviving that way.
But of course, if as you suggest, stealth was of utmost importance in the mission, even more than survival, then I'd have to cross my fingers and hope they miss...
There should have at least been a picture of it with some common reference point, like sitting by his keyboard or a CD case. Not everyone knows how big (or small...) a GBA cartridge is.
For your illustration to work, you have to assume the iPod only works with iTunes. I won't list them here, but there are several other third party apps that people can use to transfer stuff to their iPod with.
So... it is the same as with scanners. Apple bundles their own software that they developed, but you're free to use whatever other program you find that can speak to the iPod.
Aside from the fact that the iPod Nano is only available in two colors, this isn't a fair comparison.
I didn't RTFA yet, but I'm assuming there is considerably more differences between the various versions of Vista than something as trivial as the default color scheme. I can imagine how this would seriously confuse the consumers since there are so many choices, not just Pro or Home.
Perhaps a better comparison would be if Nano A could only play AAC, Nano B could play MP3 and AAC, Nano C could play MP3 and AAC but only came with Firewire compatibility, etc.
Would you prefer "spinach green" like the original Game Boy?:)
Seriously, why exactly do you NOT want a color screen? The only thing I can think of would be price, and I doubt using a different screen would drop the sale price significantly.
Just wondering if these are the same guys who made this CD, or are Propellerheads the band and Propellerhead Software totally unrelated other than the name?
Don't forget about RealMyst released in 2000, Uru released in 2003 (with a 2004 expansion pack when the online thing didn't work out), Myst for Pocket PC last March, and Myst 5 was supposed to be due out soon (I'm hoping it still gets released...). Plus I'm sure they had to have had some involvement with Myst 3 & 4, despite the fact that they didn't develop those two.
And according to the Cyanworlds web site, they contract out their services as well.
Yes, it certainly looks like they haven't done anything in the past 10 years...
Microsoft could buy Apple with the money that it has
Yes, I'm sure they could, but first Apple would have to be for sale. And I doubt Steve and the Apple board would decide to sell Apple simply because a large cheque was waved in their faces. Unless they were in serious financial trouble, that is, but fortunately they appear to be doing quite well at the moment.
For some reason, this page doesn't work in Safari. All I see is a light blue word "Start" and a blue bar, with a search field inside it. It makes Google look bloated!
I just tried it again using Camino, and there's considerably more stuff there, like the stock quotes other posters mentioned.
So is Microsoft deliberately trying to make it hard for Mac users to access their page, or could this be a problem in Safari?
Not that I have any intention of visiting this site again, I should point out...:)
3. The method as recited in claim 1, wherein the pixels comprise a 19.times.19 pixel grid.
7. The method as recited in claim 6, wherein the data comprises a portable network graphics file.
So I assume as long as people don't use 19x19 px PNG files for emoticons, we'll be safe...?

New iBooks 'Any Day Now'

· Score: 2, Insightful
With a widescreen monitor, you're not getting the top cut off, but you're getting the sides extended. On a current 14" iBook, your resolution would be 1024x768. The 15" widescreen Powerbooks have a resolution of 1280x854 so it actually has more pixels in both dimensions.
When I bought myself a PowerMac last summer, I did not do it because it had a PowerPC chip under the hood. I bought it for the OS and iLife, it had excellent performance, and to finally use my iPod to its full potential.
I'm helping seed both the Star Wars and Matrix torrents right now. So far I've given out 6 MB for Star Wars, and 60 MB for The Matrix and it's rising fast.
The man had been selling modified Xbox consoles which he fitted with a big hard drive containing 80 games.
So, the bigger crime is that he sold modded X-Boxes, rather than the fact that he loaded it with 80, most definitely pirated, games??? What's the world coming to... That would be like if someone was arrested for having a hydroponics setup, rather than for the large marijuana crop that individual was growing.

The videos from iTMS are not tied to the iPod. You can still watch them on your computer.
No, as the new iTMS doesn't have any movies on it.
(yet...)
What it does have, are music videos, Pixar shorts, and five TV shows, according to Steve's presentation.

Now we just need someone to write an "Audio Hijack Pro Airport Edition" so it can be used outside of iTunes...
Two words:
Airport Express.
I know... it probably doesn't use TCP/IP, but it _is_ wireless...

Why do we need a color screen?

Keep in mind that not everyone has huge music libraries. Lots of people would be able to fit their entire music library in 4 GB with room to spare.
And I have to disagree with your point on innovation - in my opinion, the fact that Nano doesn't use a hard drive IS a great technical innovation.
It would also be nice if it group by artist then album rather than just reordering a flat list.

If you'd followed the link, you'd have seen that it's a USB 1.1 device, and Apple says it'll work with Windows 2000 or XP as well.
