Why is Microsoft held back when Apple creates MONOPOLIES every time it releases anything. Ipod / Itunes, OSX / apple manufactured products, Logic Audio, Final Cut
Any idiot knows that Mac are double the price for the same functionality. That's if they even offer reasonable computers (core 2 duo tower anyone ?), which they don't.
INDISPUTABLE EXCEPT BY MAC ZEALOTS FEELING THE PAIN OF THEIR OVERPRICED MAC PURCHASES & UPGRADES.
I read about Mordechai Vanunu. Such a tragic story. That man is a genuine hero for peace.

The Israeli's put him in solitary for 11 years.
One word..."EVIL".
God help the middle east with the new right-wing racist Israeli government.
God forbid they might get 'inspired' or something like that.
Obviously MS with it's cutting edge tech and amazing brand image doesn't need any changes (joke).
If Obama is serious about disarming rogue states with Nuclear Weapons, should he not have at least mentioned ISRAEL ? I mean, he has professed on many occasions how much he supports them and how close the US / Israeli relationship is. How is it that they are allowed to not even admit their Nuclear capabilities, let alone regulate them ? You would be hard pushed to even find any mentioned of Israel's nuke's until recently and they have had them for 40 years.
Agreed. Also the performance difference for any normal suburbanite between a high end mac laptop and a cheap dell laptop is MARGINAL.
Processors have not increased in speed for 5 years !
Most people use laptops for web, email, youtube and dvd's. In all these cases ANY low-end Dell or Hp or Toshiba etc. etc. will perform as well as a high end mac pro laptop.
Hence, there is no practical value in the added cost of a mac (unless you are a professional and you are using multi-threaded processor intensive apps)
what about the global spy net of caucasians. They all constantly talk to each other all the time, passing information back and forth. Constantly sending emails and facebook updates to their secret western intelligence agents who are disguised as friends and relatives. (if you are any doubt ~ I am joking ~ the above post is a borderline racist nutjob)
oh yeah, violence in American movies has a real effect of turning people off films....NOT
Wasn't Regan's favorite film Rambo (must be at least 500 kills in that film)
Dude, in America your lucky if you can finish your cheerio's before you see people slaughtered in the name of entertainment.
Not to mentioned that this is the country where gun's are legal.
Face it, this country was BUILT ON VIOLENCE.
I once had to convince a single mom she didn't have to spend $2000 on a mac, and that a $500 pc would enable her kid to browse the internet, check email and watch dvds.
Apple is despicable in that it has never offered decent cheap computers (Core 2 duo or core 2 quad tower). What it does offer is in-built redundancy ie. the iMac, by building a machine into a overpriced lcd that is completely un-upgradable
Wow. Thank you for such a concise explanation of Virtual Particles (and Quantum physics). After reading 2 books on the subject your explanation is so much more intelligible. If you ever write any more descriptions of Quantum physics I'd love to read.
Thanks.
How can a potentially infinite energy source (I doubt we could develop enough to use it all up) of energy be a waste of time ?
Surely cost means nothing compared to a limitless source of immense energy.
What else are we going to do with our resources ?
A focused global space race style effort could put a space conveyer belt up and really open up the upper atmosphere. It would power itself, reclaiming energy from freefall gravity.
Yeah, we might as well go back to the caves and start banging stones together.
I mean what is the point ?
They haven't found a cure for cancer yet, why bother ?
I have noticed all sorts of weird pdf hacks happening, usually provoked by visiting torrent sites etc.
I suggest installing the very light 6mb pdf reader fox-it, get it from download.com
Nvidia should skip to the next gen and just write a gpu based OS. Something totally multithreaded. What intel is dreaming about. A parallel processing OS.

FBI Spyware ? I thought that was Windows XP ?
Yes, most of us Humans call it 'hope'. Why don't you write a thesis about it ? Oh, you did ? Good for you...How useless

Nuclear is indisputably cleaner than any other fossil fuel.
God forbid they might get 'inspired' or something like that. Obviously MS with it's cutting edge tech and amazing brand image doesn't need any changes (joke).
How about fuel for a new generation of clean Nuclear plants ?

Yeah I bet there is a huge domestic demand for sweatshop jobs and live-in factories.

because macs are for house wives and no body cares what linux users are up to.

Yeah, it's all greenpeaces fault. Are you a retard ? I'm sure you voted for Bush. Oh yeah, and all this weird weather is from Jesus.
Yawn, Tesla was beaming power 100 years ago. Plus who cares about power efficient (energy lost in transmission) when your source if near infinite.

The above method is extensively used on FOX news.
