CPUs stagnated?!?! You might think that if you only look at clock speed but a current generation Core i7 blows away anything 2 years old, much less five.
They are not user replaceable in that Apple won't sell you a battery unless your an authorized repair center. However, popping off the bottom of the case and swapping them is trivial. The benefits from making them non-replaceable far outweigh any drawbacks. They are able to pack a lot more battery into a lot smaller laptop.
Actually, there were MANY more witch trials and killings in europe than there ever were in America. Some would even argue that the environment here was safer since diversity of religious practice was generally accepted.
Actually, there are limits to how a person can be terminated even in at-will states. There is a long list of things an employer can do that will open them up for litigation or regulatory enforcement. "at-will" does not equal "capricious";
Thats a massive oversimplification of the Republican position. Republicans do support the enforcement of laws and this is against the law. This has NOTHING to do with the regulations they oppose.
Competent Regulators??.....well there's your problem right there. If you do happen to find those competent regulators, good luck finding some incorruptible ones. The reasons to minimize regulation frequently have more to do the regulators than the content of the regulations.
In a word, no. Dropping precision munitions on specific military targets is not equivalent to what was intended in WW2. Even the the B52s softening up the embedded troops was very restrained compared to what would have been done in WW2 if they had access to the same weapons.
The problem is your using the wrong search term. Few people are advertising for Objective-C developers but MANY are advertising for iOS and OS X developers. To say that a knowledgable iOS dev can't find a job in a nanosecond is to be in denial of reality.
Take your skills on the road and sell them to the highest bidder. Consulting has totally different challenges but takes advantage of your experience. I recommend you try it....and the money can be great.
Not sure I follow...with Netflix, Hulu, and the iTunes store you have access to pretty much all the content thats available anywhere. There are also a few other services like MLB and NBA that I don't use. What content is unique to Amazon? It's also cool that all the stuff I get from the iTunes store is available to all my devices from iCloud.
You just made his case for him! Of the 4 things you listed only playing an FPS absolutely requires a PC. Even that is more often done on a console these days. For full blown Photoshop you need a PC but there are a number of image manipulation apps on tablets that are really good.
PC's will become very very rare for home users over the next few years.
Actually, since the new Apple monitors have built-in power adapters for a laptop I'm assuming that this could use that power adapter as the recovery device. your normal power adapter that you take on the road would not have the key. This is actually not a bad idea.
A pile of money that won't make you the income over the coming decades that the farm would have. A loss of a family history and a way of life. The loss of a home. The liquidation comes nowhere close to the real value.
Really? I wish that was true but in my case we had to sell off a small family farm due to the impact of inheritance taxes. This is a common occurrence all across america and is one of the contributing factor to the decline of the family farmer. It really doesn't take much for the value of the land and equipment to yeah into the millions. In most cases this "wealth" cannot be accessed in any liquid way and the annual income is not extravagant. There are far more people in sillier situations than there are Paris Hiltons.

Believe it or not the system Dell uses for blowing the images down to the machines is based on Netware. It's flat amazing how fast it pushes bits.
Actually, they are as of Q4 2011. They surpassed HP as the number one manufacturer of laptops and desktops.

Those are not competing standards. Thunderbolt and DisplayPort can share a connector but are otherwise unrelated. The same port can provide DP1.2
That was a Windows issue, not a Display Port issue. It work perfectly with up-to-date OS.
Your CRT and your LCD with with VGA only are both already obsolete!
ALL politics is about maintaining hierarchies. The only difference is which hierarchy.

This has nothing to do with capitalism, runaway or otherwise. All economic systems are subject to poorly managed organizations and stupidity.

I do this now on my AppleTV. Other than sports they have all the shows I want to see.

There is not a third party market for laptop power supplies. Only Apple makes the MagSafe connector. You do have a point for iPad and iPhone devices.

Groupwise. It works great at a fraction of the resources of Exchange.

The leap was his. He wanted to convert the world to a muslim theocracy and saw the death of anyone who disagreed as a means to that end.
