Really? Out of all the ways Google tracks their consumers and their online/offline behavior (not criticizing them for it or anything), your energy usage pattern is what you find "WAY to INTRUSIVE"?
I'm sure you could hide one in a counter - it's the size of a normal midtower/full tower case.
Anyways, I'm not sure what GP was talking about, but I would be really surprised if a slashdot reader had no idea what freakin iMacs were... Not exactly the latest or most obscure innovation from Apple...
How nice would that be? If the iPhone was also waterproof? I mean, all they really need to do is make the headphone port have a little spring-latch of some kind that only opens when you push it in with a headphone plug. And make sure that water can't enter the device through the speaker or microphone. And they're pretty much set.
I'm not sure that's true. Practically every power supply I've seen has a little warranty sticker that will rip if you open it, and they definitely don't service it if that sticker's ripped (of course you can get third party stickers...)
Or just tell them you lost it, even if you haven't dropped it in water or lost it. And then do it again once you get the new one. Repeat ad nauseam. Profit. (Did I miss a step?)
If I had mod points... Good post sir. Too bad there will be plenty of anti-apple posts that wont take into account any logic you have presented. Just cause it's cool to be anti-apple.
Because not every computer can load six hundred and eighteen tabs? And that way you wont have to go back to the archives sixty times and right click or middle click 618 times? You're missing instructions in your instruction set!
Can we please be a bit more civil (in reference to your title) and less like nitpicky assholes? All I did was disprove the parent's point, which was that there's a huge difference in pricing.
From a quick google, the blackberry bold is available for $659 at best buy, while the iphone 3g 8gb and 16gb are available at AT&T stores for $599/$699.
Living in New York, UPS had consistently much faster service for me than Fedex or USPS, and the mailman would even come back later in the evening in case I wasn't home in the afternoon.
Fedex, on the other hand, had left a "no one home" notice SEVERAL times when I was home all day (I suspect due to the fact that I lived on the 4th floor of an apartment building with no elevators), and I always experienced slower delivery times.
I don't know about Macs, but I've always had to install Flash on all of my Windows systems, and systems I've built for other people, so you might actually want to switch that around, since I bet SilverLight will come pre-installed in all future versions of Windows (already in Windows Update), unlike Flash.

I think they're talking about the T91 and T101H

Thank god it was an older child then.
Your moral values intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

Seriously though, do you have one? Sounds like it would be a good read.

I agree. Jokes should never be offensive.

uhhh... Mac Pro? Or did Apple suddenly cease production?
Oh, right, forgot about the cloaking device on the new generation =).

A projector that might see more uses than just showing photos. i.e. one built into a small laptop/netbook.

"Interstate mail-order or net purchases are tax free"
Actually, they're not... I don't know about mail-order, but you're technically supposed to report net purchases and pay tax for them anyways.
Uhm, yeah, they're usually the ones leading the revolt.
or, you know, you could have some balls and use the bandwidth you pay for $30 a month in any way you want until they tell you otherwise

(Happily using my iphone's 3g connection on my laptop... but no, of course it sucks cause it's an apple =).

Oh, sure, the rest of the time he's referring to the purchase in the singular sense,
Uhm, he isn't. He talked about two machines with different hardware and different purposes, without any sort of redundancy that I noticed.
Better would be to park where you can't get a ticket, perhaps?
THOSE EXIST??

This is why anecdotal evidence is worthless.
But it's not like Google would stop working if they weren't there.
Strange, OWA works rather well for me in Firefox. Perhaps you're using some features that are IE-only?
