LuckyLefty01, I can't help you find a job, but since you mentioned Objective-C and you're in the SF area, you should definitely apply for a student scholarship to Apple's Developers Conference in June. I went twice on the scholarship. You will learn tons, but what may be more important is you will meet many contacts. They have a meet-and-great set up for employers to talk to students the Sunday before the conference begins for everyone else.
No, because it is irrelevant to the job of President. If the Constitution granted the office of the Presidency the power to be involved in legislating lifestyles, beliefs, and school curriculum, then it would be an issue. I support RP because of all the things he want to do, and I could care less if he believes is a flying spaghetti monster or not.
I'd love to see an authentic depiction of the story rated at least PG-13.
I want see the woodsman get hacked to pieces with his enchanted axe (cursed by the Wicked Witch of the East) before being rebuilt as the Tin Man. I want to see the Lion fight off the tiger-bear beasts and kill the giant spider. I want to see the Tin Man slaughter the 40 wolves of the Witch, and the Scarecrow wring the necks of the 40 crows.
It would have been cool to see Tim Burton make this. Johnny Depp could have played one of the flying monkeys.
He is a very libertarian candidate who wants more power to the people
I live in Kucinich's district. He wants more government in people's lives, plain and simple, on most issues from SS and heath care to this Fairness Doctrine. On some issues he is as you described, but by and large he's a flat out socialist, not a libertarian, who thinks people can't get though life without government.
Attendees at last week's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) received copies of the beta ware and had to sign legally binding agreements not to let Leopard stray onto file-sharing networks.
They didn't have us sign anything. Obviously there was an already established legal agreement, but nothing was signed on the spot.
1) To eject a CD-ROM, USB-key, or external storage, I drag it to the trash. That seems illogical to me. That's illogical to me also considering you could just click the little eject button next to the item's name in a Finder window. To eject a CD, you could have hit the eject button on the keyboard if you had the correct hardware. You dragging icons to the trash indicates it's been years since you've been on a Mac before this experience.
2) To install a program, I "click-and-drag" it to my "hard drive". I had to google how to install something in OSX. Double-clicking the downloaded file yielded some puzzling prompt I can't recall. You had to Google to find out how to drag an icon from point A to point B?
3) Driver management is a nightmare. Sure, it works great with Mac hardware, but who wants to be locked into one brand? Oh wait, Mac-happy fan-boys do. echo 'it works great with Mac hardware'
4) OSX feels like an OS that is 50 feet thick. And by that I mean it feels like there's layer upon layer of abstraction, as if it were trying to protect me from seeing how a computer really works. Knock yourself out:/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
5) OSX is not very business friendly. It doesn't fit business-logic. You'll have to elaborate on this, because it makes no sense.
6) The bundled applications were inferior. Give me Outlook Express over Apples default mail application any day. That thing was an utter, illogical, painful experience to configure. Now you're just...nevermind.
7) OSX is slow. Seriosuly, it's just not as snappy as winXP. Granted, I was running OSx86 on a Dell laptop, but I've used OSX on a mac before, and it really is a little laggy from all the superflorous garbage it distracts you with. "Ooooh, dancing icon. Thor like!" Knock yourself out:/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
To anyone who is considering buying a Mac: Try using OSX first! Your advice should read: Try learning OSX first!
In my honest opinion, I think Windows Vista will pave over OSX when it's released. I wish this were the first line in your post.
- Adobe will kill off Freehand, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks, and incorporate any good features from them into Illustrator, GoLive, and ImageReady, respectively. - Photoshop and Flash will remain the same, since neither had competition from the other company. - They'll probably maintain 'lite' versions of all of the above, giving consumers the illusion of choice. - Corel will acquire the company that makes Preparation H, since their asses will hurt so much from shitting a few tons of bricks.

It also almost rhymes with "Lucifer."
