    Don't think so. NAND is going to prevail longer than that.

    I don't think Apple are retards. They didn't see Samsung coming, I think.

    Gross and obscene, huh? Needed a Windows rig, bought a macbook pro as it was the fastest laptop in the store (2.2GHz, 2.9 (or 3) in turbo), Slapped windows 7 on it as soon as I got it home. Have no need for MacOS. None.

    Uhhh, no. My wife is a santa clara county employee, you should hear some of the shit she repeats after union meetings. As for tax breaks, sure, but you really should define "wealthy". Most of the private tax returns people that run ventures here complain that at least 45% of their earnings go to the fed and state, they don't appear to be dodging anything. Investment earnings, sure, some of that crap is criminal. The tax breaks you speak of however are more likely than not for corps that are planning on opening up shop around here. If the county doesn't give them perks and deals, they open those shops up somewhere else. You can only take so much money from people who generate wealth. I'm with you on the advantage the wealthy have, the government has become nothing more than a puppet of these people. But what is your solution? Confiscate all wealth? Redistribute it to the homeless? You make the business climate bad here, they just go somewhere else.
    Here's a thought, lets start by cleaning up some of the waste and nonsense that Washington makes.

    You're told, "Well, older people want more money!"
    You try to retort - like shouting in a hurricane - No! I'll take market rates!
    But you're still told that you don't have the skills - I don't care what skills you have, you WILL be told that.

    Trvth.

    They certainly have done good, but its not all gravy. Due to inflexable union rules regarding retirement benefits many towns in California have become insolvent.

    Your comment is just ironic enough to prove the point. Yes, only the government can censor.

    I might have instead gone and shot up my school or something. Which would you prefer?

    Or you could have done both, as some of the recent gun-totin' mad killah geeks have done. Remember the Asian dude who killed 30+ at virgina tech?

    Desktops suck anymore. I'll never go back to setting them up and breaking them down whenever I move or need to move the rig to another room. Gpu performance has increased greatly on mobile rigs, and not a fuck given.

    Yeah, it wasn't as bad as all that, but 5.2 will really make it shine. I hope. Hopefully they will do something slicker than Maestro II's need to download a flurry of libraries into your phone every time it encounters a new api.
