Try reading the first sentence in the first paragraph, pay particular attention to the end of it. Now read the third sentence of the first paragraph.
Now, what you were saying about "security" in windows? And how are the 100 million mom & pop users supposed to know about these special 'security' fixes that protect the mythical normal, but secure, user account?
I think you're making a poor assumption that mental aging is NOT related to physical aging. I believe that the mental aging is a symptom of the physical aging of the brain.
But, your post points towards another issue. Our health/welfare system will have to be massively increased to support those that are chronically sick, physically or mentally, for hundreds of years. Hopefully, some better medical solutions would be found in that time, but the cost might still be enough to require a mandatory age limit.
I understand that this is a signficant technical diffference, but to Joe Computer User, there is no difference. He doesn't see it in his inbox, and that's all he cares about. No more horse pr0n...
Yep, except that I don't have to remember some randomly named app three months down the road. And I don't have to worry about integrating it with my Address book or my iCal events...
Folklore.org is a great place to see what they were doing back in 1980-1982. They were doing things with windows that MS didn't get to for another decade.
Keychain includes a tool that lets you determine how strong your password is. And it lets you know if it's too simplistic, too short, or based on a dictionary word.
Generally, OS X is very backward compatible with all previous hardware. If you use a commercially bought copy of OS X and updated it on the newest hardware, instead of a CD that came with a specific, especially new, model of i/PowerMac/book, you can be pretty sure that it will run on most any supported hardware.
Makes it nice and relatively quick when you're re-imaging hundreds of different models of older Macs.
It was truly great to be able to communicate with him and minimize the frustration on both sides.
At about 16 months, we first realized he understood us when I told him to go get my shoes, that were sitting next to my wife's. He ran and got the right shoes. Light bulb went on. And we went to babysigns.com and started learning some basic signs.
Of course, as soon as he could speak, he dropped the signs. But still, it was an extra 6 months or so of communication.

Do you realize where you contradicted yourself?

You see, his argument went like this.
1. Everyone has a peepee.
2. This is slashdot.
3. QED
That's not sheltered, that's a teenager.
Your post is hysterical.
That Acer is just a rip off of my 2 year old PowerBook. Down to the 'style' of silver & black.
Congratulations, you just refuted yourself.
I changed the battery on my iPod in less than 5 minutes on Saturday night. Almost made it within the commercial break...
It's not as hard as you might think.
No, show me where virus writers are profiting??
Oh right, MS and Symantec...never mind.
I think you're 'daft'.

Well, try again. Obviously, you don't pay attention. They've been using Unix for about 3.5 years now.
And, please, don't try to compare Mail.app to that virus target you mentioned.
You obviously have never even seen a Mac.
The default email, Mail.app, has a built in Bayesian spam filter. You train it, it stops spam. For free, with the default install.
Yeah, because an iMac with iTunes, iMove, iPhoto, iDVD and GarageBand is SO much more expensive than a PC Media Center.
Sir, you are an asshat.
Maybe you need a free iPod...

I doubt this service is going to be Linux based.

I inquired with several physicians about "lung plaque" and most of them had never heard of such a thing.
He claims in the story that he's not a hypochondriac but this sure does sound like a partial one.
Not much info but definitely related:

Sounds just like OS X's Keychain.

Something like RAID 5 on a single disk (of 5-20 partitions) perhaps?

Show off!
his windows filesystem had also been mounted and was being deleted.
Good for him! Always nice to see someone trying to secure their computers.
That is just pure ignorance and FUD.
Apple changed THEIR program to block certain behavior of another application. It's not graceful, but it is legal.
I'm suprised someone with that low a UID is that ignorant, especially after all the previous posts, or, horror of horrors, RTFA!
Captain Obvious to the rescue!
you have to wonder why they aren't *all* showing counts on lifetime.
Because some of them are new!!
My son knew about 50 signs before he could speak.
