    good god man, how much spyware do you have?! I don't use IE and run Zonelabs Firewall. My advice to you is to use Firefox and stop visiting so many pr0n sites.

    For impossible evolutions, have you ever considered the eye? As complex as the eye is, I wouldn't assume that it was formed by mutation; going from nothing to something extremely complex and that works is hard to believe. It couldn't have started with something that didn't work and then evolved into something that did work, by evolution; half an eye that doesn't work wouldn't do any animal any good. So how do we explain the eye with evolution? I'm not trying to start some heated debate, I would just like an answer to my question. I have found that philosophical debates are hardly constructive and definately don't change ANYONES views.

    You say you don't smoke cigs because they are expensive, addictive, and not very good smelling... so you go out and pick the one that is more expensive and worse smelling. and no, the tobacco you are smoking from your cigar is NOT cuban; which is illegal in the states(if thats where you're from). as for the addictive part, just ask Sigmund Freud.

    yes, that is correct here in the US as well. Long painful deaths are most often payed for by insurance here.. I dunno, the GP could be talking about funeral processions lead by local police officers. Here, half of the cost of tobacco is for taxes.

    judging by your post, it appears you need some nicotine... Do you honestly believe smokers defend their right to smoke outside because the "drug warps their sense of reason so they can justify stupid things like smoking"? You ever smoke tobacco at all? People don't like to be told what to do, would you?

    Now i'll be the first one to argue that cigs stink and i do find it rude when smokers light up right next to a group of nonsmokers, no one wants to be forced to smell that. But i find that most nonsmokers are so gungho about getting people to stop smoking that they stop seeing these smokers as real people.

    i live in atl GA and smokers just lost their right to smoke inside at public places where there are people under the age of 18. i can live with that, i can understand the problem. But now you're saying you don't even want smokers to smoke outside... you obviously think you don't have bigger problems.

    i guess some people just shouldn't go outside.

    Which place lets you reserve 4 xbox 360s? For most console releases i've heard of, you had to stand in line the day of, first come first serve and you only get one.

    When a friend of mine was standing inline for a ps2 he saw a woman who had paid 4 other mexicans to stand in line with her and each buy an ps2. so they walked outa there with 5 ps2's.

    got me thinking to do the same thing with the 360, then sell them the next day for twice as much. profit!

    Good luck downloading all those Windows drivers, especially if your ethernet card is one of them.

    You said it. I've had this problem MANY times when installing Windows. But hey, atleast it gives you time to install a Firewall before this happens. That is, if you have it on disk (no thumbdrives won't work until you install those USB drivers)

    I still don't think you're getting it. It's not a matter of how much it costs or even how it good it is. It's not a matter of anything, the man prob doesn't wash his own clothes for christs sake.

    and yes, i don't have much money at all (college does that to a person). but of course having more money doesn't mean less decisions, but it does mean you don't have to care about them as much; i'm quite sure he wouldn't notice any difference in his bank account.

    anyway, you managed to steer me Faaaaaar away from the point. the point is, wtf does anyone care about this mans decision on buying a waching machine(again, i don't even know why it's a big deal to him)?! now, you may think that this is a very important decision, and you want his input or something, i don't know. but i'd rather have someone other than Steve Jobs explain to me which machine to buy.

    Clearly, Apple's successes contradict your claim that he is not visionary. Who is it again who introduced GUIs to the world? Apple. Who is it again that legitimized online music? Apple.

Who was the first to have 3 1/2 inch floppy drives in every machine? Etc. etc. etc.....

    That would be because Apple does make the best computers, at least in their price range. Of course, considering the flimsy, fragile shit that the Dells and Sonys of the world make, that's not very hard.

    Wow hold on there now. Apple makes the most overpriced computers on the market. For example . Now here's Dells.

    Note: Dells computer on the left cost about half as much as a VERY similar apple machine... Im pretty sure 80 gigs of HD space doesn't cost 1 grand. But the odd thing is, you attribute this to the cases for each. I hope someone shoots me if i spend 1,000 bucks on the case alone.
