My guess is that this guy is working as a temp at two different companies which would make sense that he would be getting over time but not benefits like sick pay or vacation pay.
Not too sure about that. My friend is using it with his computer connected to a wireless router. The built in software pierces does more than just turn on connection sharing, it also opens up ports through the firewall. Just a thought.
Its not that he is afraid to get scratched but if he drops the iPod, then its time for a new iPod, the things are not very rugged, you can kick my DS, drop it in acid and it will still play well. With the PSP, you look at it funny and it decides to break.
Importing from Japan isnt that much more than buying it from a brick and mortar. You can get colors from Japan that aren't available here for about 20 bucks mores.
Apple doesn't have to support Firewire because of the FCC mandate, but cable digital receivers need to support Firewire and I really can't see Apple not supporting Firewire for this particular purpose on low end machines. But then again Apple is reselling these shows on iTunes, so perhaps Apple will not enter the DVR business.
I never had a problem with the CF reader I have, it actually remains flush against the slot. The Cardbus Wifi card on the other hand. It wasn't so pretty. Good things those things became so cheap so fast.
I had a Sony Vaio SRX without floppy nor a built in DVD drive. It was 2.6 pounds. The newest Sony with a built in Dvd drive weighs in at 3.1 pounds. The lightest Sony full function laptop ever made was 1.8 pounds. So the built drive does make quite a big difference percentage wise in the weight of the laptop. Most computers nowadays come with an image of the software on the hard drive rather than on a disk, so for most people who never buy any software other than ones installed for them, like people who buy iBooks, I can see one day where optical drives would be optional, and you would use a dock connected to a laptop to access this optical drive. Since this would be a dual use, I propose a new name for this Apple laptop without any drives. I propose the name, MacBook Duo.
Apple makes a USB modem dongle. Which is probably a better idea than a pc card as you are likely to also have to carry a phone cord as well as. For people that like to work on their video or audio on the road, I can see them using them to attach to high speed raid for video work, or installing a high end sound card.
Or maybe not.
I don't like carrying a cable and it's easier to show of photos by sticking a CF card into a small laptop and then giving the laptop to your friends to look at rather than using a cable to the camera or a cable to the usb connector. It's just a personal preference. I am quite good at losing cables and destroying them.
It's a troll like comment, just coz you put a smiley on it doesn't make it funny. David Pogue is a Mac fan, he writes a bunch of Mac books including , he likes Macs, he likes the new Mac. Your comment about him getting paid doesn't further the conversation any and if not funny should be relagated off topic and/or troll.
It's no different what people think when they think of the WTO protests in Seattle, they know that something bad happened but blame most of it on the protestors, where there were quite a few police officers who over stepped their bounds. And even though people have access in America to google with different accounts of the WTO protest, people don't really think that the police were to blame. Not that different in China.
Why not shared stuff doctrine. Where you can share your stuff up to a limited amount. You can play your cd for your friends but you can't play your cd at a concert for a example. If you share a folder so your room mates can use it, then it would be okay, if you share your stuff so everybody on the planet can use it, then that would not be okay.
Selling cigarettes and alcohol are crimes, selling rated R movies are not. And although it is regulated by the MPAA, selling R movies by stores isn't going have any adverse consequences to either the theater owner nor the movie store owner.
Shakespeare was once a pop culturist. His plays were seen by the masses and had references to recent, okay maybe Caeser wasn't too recent references. I imagine 500 years from now, high school kids will be performing McFarland teleplays and scholars will argue that McFarland wasn't one person but many different people and most likely was actually a woman.

2) Apple did sue Apple II clone makers back in the early 80s.
Bill Gates senior is the Gates part of Preston Gates Ellis LLP law firm. Getting paid 170k a year would actually be a pay cut.

Get a usb wifi adapter. It supposedly works faster to get games online.

Firewire is mandated by the FCC. It's going to stick around for a while.
My Karma will take a hit, oh well. Mod parent insightful.

I think there is some guy out there with mod points that is marking everything redundant. This post will be marked redundant.
It wouldn't be as aerodynamic with a USB reader.
Or maybe not.

I have an iBook without a PC card slot. I wish I had one primarily so I can stick a multi memory card reader in it like I did on my Vaio.
Somewhere between sharing with 5 people and a million.
insert including books like Macs for Dummies.

Didn't Pogue write some early Mac software back in the 1980s? Which is much more than any other tech pundit out there. I am looking at you Mr. John D.

The law would be void as being vague and be overturn by the courts. Similar laws have been overturned in Washington and Ohio I believe.
