1. This is old
2. This has nothing to do with race, ethnicity, or 9/11
3. This has nothing to do with Apple
4. This has to do with the US embargo on Iran, which includes selling goods to anyone in the US that could take them back to Iran. This is law. This is not Apple acting out of nowhere. It's in their legal terms that states they follow US embargo laws. If you don't like them, tell your congressman to change US embargo law or to lift the embargo against Iran. Good luck with that.

Up on things, my ass, chump. You don't know jack. Next time you claim something, speak out of your mouth instead of your ass.
Thank you for acknowledging this fact. Adobe products run just as well on PCs as on Macs, sometimes not as well, but sometimes even better. The beauty of building a PC for the specific purpose of multimedia.
I'm curious why you put a comma before your subordinate conjunction "and". Just because you pause when you talk, that doesn't mean you pause in your writing. It's completely unnecessary, unsightly and [sic] should not be used.

I would really like to know what a medical physicist is. Really. Tell me. Tell me what it is and why they like to start off their sentences with IAAMP to explain who they are. We won't get it.
"The Register is carrying the sanest and balanced article... that I have read to date in the public domain." Now, this may be the sanest article you have read to date, but what is this balanced trying to do? Are you comparing something? You may have wanted to use "most balanced" to compare this article with others you have read. I understand that you have a previous history with the military and as such, have absolutely no language skills whatsoever. Go to school.
Whatever the author meant, it did not come through in his/her message. It was poorly crafted with erroneous spelling and punctuation. No one should have to suffer the indignity of being stupid.
Firefox 3.0 Alpha has been available since August 31, 2006. I love posting every Firefox update as much as the other guy, but get on the ball or don't bother.
Television sets don't have hardware that requires POST. Computers have to make sure the hard drive is there, that there is an operating system, and every other input/output device that is connected. Feel free to disable as much as you'd like in BIOS, but your computer is not a television, as much as it may act like it these days.
How can data backup be difficult? External hard drives, Optic media, Flash media - how many options do we have? Lots. Don't make it more difficult than it has to be, or the Darwin award goes to you.
An android is a robot made to resemble a human, usually both in appearance and behaviour. The word derives from the Greek andr-, " meaning "man, male", and the suffix -eides, used to mean "of the species; alike" (from eidos "species"). The word droid, a robot in the Star Wars universe, is derived from this meaning.
Your "tin cans" didn't resemble humans, therefore they are not androids. There is a MAJOR difference between Robot, Android, and Cyborg.
To be fair, and correct for that matter, post-humans, otherwise known as "super heroes" are not being asked to register as "Human WMD's." They are being asked to register as law abiding crime fighters so someone can be held accountable for destruction of public property and life. I won't get into my views on it, since I am an avid comic book reader and highly invested in Civil War, but don't write an article about it if you don't know ABSOLUTELY EVEYRTHING about the subject.

I just wrote an exhaustive essay on the so-called effects of video game violence. I'm really looking forward to any feedback you may have about it. For the record, I'm on the side of video games. http://www.digital-us.org/video-games/2008/11/27/violent-video-games.html

TASER - Thomas A Swift Electric Rifle NOT TAZER
Power Rangers is just an American rehash of Sentai Rangers from Japan. Japan's got 15 years on the American Rangers.

Not all oil sources are Arab, especially not all Middle Eastern sources.

Anyone else care to mention that the submitter of this article spelled Philips incorrectly?

Lets hope the results from this storm end up more entertaining THAN the Fantastic Four movie.

"Dwarfs" is only the plural form of dwarf stars. The plural for dwarf people is "dwarves". Yes, English major.

You're very odd.
