For those of you on OS X, there's a very nice client called NewsFire with a clever, clean, pretty interface. It's the first RSS viewer I've actually enjoyed using.
I suspect they realized that a FF storyline cannot be effectively told in a two-hour timeframe, and decided to make Advent Children a lead-in to the PS2 game.
Maybe English isn't math, but if it isn't, then realizing/admitting/conceding that fact won't help Google - they'd be screwed anyway. More importantly, I'd say they would have been screwed long ago, which would lead me to conclude that you are incorrect, sir.
To your credit, though, you're probably right about how many dates poets get.
Technically, they didn't specifically announce iChat client's ability to use Jabber. It was a natural assumption, true, but it was always possible there would be caveats (only able to connect to Tiger Server's breed of Jabber? and such). It's just more official now.
It's well known that some crackers analyze what's changed in Windows Updates, and find vulnerabilities that way.
Well, invariably, some of the patches or info they release to their "premium" customers will find their way to the virus writers. Viruses will be written to take advantage of holes that aren't even patched yet for the general public.
Suddenly, "keep your computer up to date" isn't good enough anymore. And there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth and planes falling from the sky and such.
I said tend to, not invariably. For every person who backs up their legal games "so their kids don't destroy them" (tm), there are at least three who just never buy the games - and don't try to kid yourself by believing otherwise.
And by the way, it's fairly well known that Microsoft has lost large amounts of money (many billions, IIRC) on the XBox.
One of the most important things that has made XBOX a somewhat sucess is the ability to mod it.
Actually, that made it a spectacular failure.
Sure, there are a lot of XBox's floating around now, but don't kid yourself - Microsoft didn't make a dime on any of them. Console makers can offer such powerful systems for so cheap (both being relative, of course) because they traditionally take a loss on the system and make up for it in game sales and licenses. And owners of modded XBox's tend not to buy games.
Apple considers their PowerMac towers as workstations, so I wouldn't consider them desktops.
I disagree, but let's go on the assumption that that's correct.
They now have the G5 iMac. You don't get much more of a "desktop system" than the iMac, and it's now 64-bit. And 64-bit processors on the x86 side of things don't seem to have gained any traction in the last 14 months or so.
Some additions, corrections: - Don't discount Safari as a browser - it's the best browser I've ever used. just turn on tabs (looks in preferences), and popup blocking, which for some reason I'll never understand are disabled by default. - Third party utilities including Path Finder and Onyx will allow you to quit the Finder. there's really no reason to, though. - You really don't need to reinstall when you first get the machine - just look through places like your Applications folder for things you don't want. - And now, my "things no Mac should be without" category: Quicksilver - the app/document launcher on steroids. Adium - multi-protocol IM client Desktop Manager - virtual desktops. Cooperates with expose and multiple monitors. MenuMeters - CPU/bandwidth/HD Monitor and more, in the menubar. SideTrack - replacement trackpad driver allows the sides to be used as scroll wheels. Colloquy - modern IRC client
I suspect that the G5 Macs have the highest percentage of the engineering workstation market after the x86 boxes.
Do tell, what other options are there? That's like saying that my poodle is the largest of my dogs after the retreiver... doesn't mean that my poodle isn't the smallest dog I own.
Maybe you cannot operate an ipod one handed. Be careful about the use of "you" - particularly when you're actually talking about yourself. Like another replier stated, I operate mine one-handed on a daily basis. [insert masturbation joke here]
No kidding. "Absolutely stunning looks and style"? According to who? this thing looks like a plaything. Losing the 3 foot bezel would be a good start...
If you're rackmounting an iMac (which is almost certainly where this device will be used) then you have bigger issues than the extra $2 the light will cost.
Personally, I hope it's accessible via Applescript, and/or via a CLI command. There are a number of things I would like to use with this with involving AS: new IM? flash yellow! someone mentioned me in IRC? flash green! Somone's accessing my webserver? blue!
Not to piss on your parade, but "Faux News" would not sound like "Fox News", but "Fo News". If BET started a news program, that would be an appropriate pun.:D

Yes NAT can be a pain in the ass, but it is serving its purpose fairly well.
Is there a purpose for NAT that IPv6 won't solve better? And be less of a pain in the ass?
Day 3: This is wrinkledshirt cursing spymac mail.
I hear you... I gave up on spymac mail quickly. Get gmail instead.

By the way, your 486's are dead too... perhaps your zombies like each other :)
Forgot to mention, all of those apps I linked to are freeware.

Don't forget ^ for Ctrl as well.
That'll be a bitch to keep balanced when you don't have the luxury of putting all the weight of the computer guts in the base like the iMac G4 could.

And so of course, they spend mod points to mod it...down. *doh*

Do hobbyists who don't share their work still count for prior art, though? /me INAL
I wonder how programmable this is?

I'm excited
