Go to class, and learn some crap, even if you have to do it in spite of the professor. Get to school a couple days early and stick around a couple days so you can party before and after the semester.
The thing that gets me about the IPod and this are that one simple thing could really make them stand out. Which is a display with not so much a crappy 70's calculator gray background, but a really crisp white/clear background?
So someone's got to know why we can't fix this?
Perhaps you can explain to me how Real's plan is going to be detrimental to Apple selling more iPods
Look it's not even 11 o'clock my time, how am I supposed to make a logical argument. The caffene has barely kicked in yet.
Though it could certainly hurt ITunes sales. especially.
It's hard to belive that it's all for the music. I certianly want to belive that Apple is this special company that defies all of corporate america with it's singular desire to "Not be evil." (Well not singular anymore)
Truth is they want to sell more IPods, and having a consistent licensing scheme makes using an IPod just that much nicer. Now Real is threatening their revenue stream, and their "It's about the music" seems to take a back seat to "It's about the profit."
I find that my crappy t61 (that was sent to me as a replacement for a conveniently broken t68i) has a game deep abyss, that strangely suits my bathroom time killing pursuits quite well.
It barely takes one full synapse worth of firing to end the call. That hardly rates to a 10k fine.
I'm just not up for killing people who call me. That being said I'm probably not gonna buy anything either.
Yeah, this too worked for me about 2+ years ago when I became a cell only user. However, sometimes you have to give out a number to someone somewhere, then they go and sell the bastard. Now you start to get solicitations from whomever they sold you number to on your cell phone. I'm sure a company does not scrub numbers from their list just because they are cell numbers. Why bother. There's a better chance you'll answer. But I have had fantastic success from the DNC list.
BTW, I know you all hate getting calls from people during dinner, but just remember the actual individual doing the call probably isn't out to get you, and most likely would just love to be treated as a human. As a once 16 year old who didn't want to work in a restaurant, making cold calls for a telemarketing company works out to be a pretty good job. (Better hours and money). So be nice, don't buy the product, but remember lots of people do buy stuff over the phone or it wouldn't be a business model.
I think I'm okay with this, in this way I can loose at DOA and still have that second or two before I realize it happened. Considering some of those matches only last 10 seconds, This could be a 20% increase in ability.
But what about how cool it would be to get that old Planescape-Torrent disk that you wanted to play but never got around to buying. Or even better the learn chinese 5 dollar disk that sometimes you see at frys and sometimes not. One cannot overlook the 8 million clip art pictures so you have something to give to your father-in-law, for whatever the next gift giving date is.
Sure for the new stuff this might not win any awards, but for all the B-titles this could work out just fine.

When you're broke like myself, those $50 printer cartridges add up fast!

Well my heart burns for you buddy. If you were in Austin I'd buy you a beer for the entertainment value of you review. In fact I know a quixstar/amway guy that I met a b&n who'd love to help you make a couple bucks, but that'd just be if you bought the $8 dollar bottle. hehe
It's probably a DMCA violation to build a device that would inhibit or cause consernation to a device by overcoming its physial limitations(can't handle my awesome flyswatter!).
"Would one dare do anything so risky as carouse, drive a car, hit the ski slopes, if three hundred years of life would be thereby imperiled?"
I think if I can requisition a couple of pigs to regrow a whole new me, I'd drive much faster and double black diamonds fooey-- lets talk base jumping without a parachute. Hell if they were cheap enough, perhaps we could save money on cars by not putting brakes in them, and just swap a couple organs around whenever you hit--whatever you hit.
Do you think when survey company X does some kind of cost assessment of how much spam costs companies every year (I believe the last estimate I read was in the $5bil range) they include the time spent reading about how much time is spent thinking about spam?
hmm some interesting spam cost sites: vircom's cost calculator info world
if you do fiber right, you have nothing to worry about.
So does this mean I'm going to have to stop making fiber animals with my patch cables? Damn!

Java is good....
very good...
when you hear java think happy thoughts....
Everyone should use java for everything....
now sing with me "We love java, yes we do..."
Java its not just programming its life.
The system also offers an economy of effort, Mr. Shen said. It can reduce 80 per cent of the input keywork when setting up a shipment, because a universal address has only eight or 10 characters, and a Natural Area Code needs only two, four or six characters. In contrast, a typical traditional address needs 50 characters for the street name, country, zip code, and so on.
Sure this system may seem simpler but how long will it take to tell a service person vvbbbrr222... No I didn't say vbbvrr22... 2v's then 3b's. No, You don't understand!!!
You know I hate when the decision to become a horizonal monopoly instead of a vertial one comes back to haunt me.

Nice to hear an expert once on /.

If you buy any hardware device with Linux on it SCO, taking a page out of the RIAA playbook, will probably put you on their list of people to sue.
5...4...3...2...1...
SCO has just accused them of patent infringement.
