mmm...kay.
I'm familiar with the antics of these under-informed media thugs. Apple's warranty covers the battery for 18 months. Here's your link if you want to replace your so called non-replaceable battery.
Happily in my fourth year with my 1st gen iPod which still gets 8 hours of play.
oops... now i'm under the bridge with the troll I hoped to simply piss upon.
for $250 you could get a nice 15" LCD (generic) and a cordless keyboard/mouse (generic). KVM's are swell, but if you want to impress the ladies, you need as many LCD's as possible!
Not quite... compare 1 hit from site A vs. site B (below)
site A:
<html>
Hello World!
<\html>
site B:
<?
while $i < 999999999
{echo "I suck bandwith!<br>";}
?>
for those who don't know PHP, Site B would produce a very large file to be transmitted, while Site A would be tiny. Add in seperate image servers and database servers and all the cross-communication versus having a single Apache or IIS server handle the works... it does get more complicated (foo).
is photoshop 7 too powerful for the 12 inch Ibook?
The iBook has plenty of muscle for even heavy duty (40MB+ files) photoshopping... of course, it doesn't compare to a desktop, but it is quite capable of doing the job. Just make sure you have ample memory (512MB+)
I also do not own a TiVo for just that reason... but I also dont watch commercials, and do watch the shows I like on my schedule instead of when they air
However, from my experience it seems that the context menu of Windows applications is a lot better than that of Mac OS apps
Both Mac and Win contextual menus are highly customizable as is... use a 3rd party "power-tool" to take it to extreme. This bit of your troll just opinion and is unfounded bunk.
the fact that MS has embraces more than one mouse button from the start
So does the Mac (Have you ever actually used one?). Plug in a 2 button mouse and it 'just works' plug in a 14 button mouse and use a nifty little tool called 'USB overdrive' and program each button to do anything you like. 2-buttons with a scrollwheel works exactly the same on both, including a right mouse button drag... so BUNK.
My GF has an Apple laptop, I'm sure she doesn't even know there is such a thing as a context menu
Exactly the point... your GF doesnt know there is a contextual menu... is she happy with her mac? does it do exactly what she wants it to? does she have to learn to do things in a way that is not immediately apparent?
The one button interface is a blessing for a lot of people who just want to write email and browse the 'net without bothering to understand the complexities of the OS.
Would it be white hat hacking to apply this script to cast votes for Michael Badnarik?? Even if it would be considered 'black hat'... for god's sake, someone please do it!!!
Careful what you wish for...
With ubiquitous video watching ability will come actual full motion t.v. style commercials.
Think those Flash ads are annoying?? Just you wait!
There are currently 4 million iPods in use. MSN has (roughly) 20 million users who will be forcibly directed to view the contents of the MSN music store. Sadly, MS will do just fine... keep in mind that their market is comprised of people stupid enough to pay for MSN dialup in the first-place!
You completely misread this article. Clearly what he is saying is that in the year 2014, I will be filthy stinking rich, and will have billions of dollars worth of prototype level uber-tech filling every niche in my home and life.
my personal favorite is the contact lens display... a great theory, but isn't it obvious that the power cable for those might be an eye irritant?
As with most 'normals' you severely mis-understand what is meant by "slack".
I would tell about what it really means, but that would mean a host of/.'ers crowding up the spaceships when the venutian sex-goddesses come to rescue us sub-geneii.
I really can't afford it, on my fixed income, being disabled and fighting a host of diseases, but this sounds like a promising project... I would like to donate half my savings!

Name's Scruffy... the janitor.
I'm on my 10 minute break.
Scruffy's gonna die the way he lived.
Cairo Georgia is pronounced 'Kay-row'... duh! How could Egypt have stolen then name when they don't even say it right!
FreeVo, MythTV, BeyondTV, and the TV plugin for MyHTPC all lack this feature, and it is the feature that makes the whole package worth doing (IMHO).
When Myth or FreeVo do predictive, then I'll endorse those fine products.love that Sage TV

No worries. Mr Gates is a software engineer and businessman, not a geo-tectonic thermonuclear engineer.
Changing from factory default channel 6 to channel 10 clears the problem up
