If they take your second monitor away, go invest in your own and bring it into your office. (As an aside, make sure it is tagged as a personal item.) Then you will be more productive and get higher visibility the next time you are considered for a raise or promotion. IMO, it will be well worth the $100-$200 investment for a second monitor.
The difference between the "buzz" around Apple's products and the "buzz" around Jesus is that you can go to an Apple store and interact with Apple products that physically exist. When you go to a church and try to interact with Jesus, it's all in your head.
Music has not always been data, but it has always been capable of being represented as data. Before the digital age, music was often represented by an analogue signal, whether it was an FM signal or an AM signal. It has also been represented by lower frequency analogue signals that were encoded onto substrates such as cassette tapes and vinyl records. These lower frequency signals were more directly representative of the music in its natural form. Outside of these representations, music is an audible waveform that exists thanks to the presence of a medium through which to travel.
This must be why we can't find any record or trace of the aliens that visited ancient civilizations (Egyptians, Mayans, etc.) here on earth all those many thousands of years ago.
I know lawyers are generally hated around/., but here is an article that ran a couple of days ago that shows another industry that has recognized the need for a lopsided pay scale in favor of those with science and engineering training:
I think you are mistaking two things. Apple does not like to publicly discuss its upcoming products to create an air of mystique. It has nothing to do with how formal or informal the company is. It just so happens that some of the methods used to create the mystique are the same as those used by old school corporations.
Just think of the Google adsense revenue they will be saving. Google paid nearly a billion dollars to Newscorp for the ad rights for myspace. Buying youtube at almost twice that will therefore make it a deal.
Since he obviously put so much time and effort into developing his interpersonal skills, about the only thing he'll be good at is being an antisocial lab rat.
I ditched eartlhink early this year and started using Verizon's FIOS service. For some bizarre reason I can't figure out, I am still being directed to earthlink's DNS servers and getting their trash loaded when a page can't be found.
Even worse, I have discovered it breaks a nice feature that I particularly like with safari (yes, I use mac os x). Safari's autocomplete feature apparently relied upon the standard dead page error and attempted to fill in the "www." and ".com", ".org", or ".net" to find a valid page. Now with earthlink's new DNS "feature", safari's auto complete won't work properly.
How many times can earthlink screw me over by one lousy, unwanted "feature"?
Well, duh, if you take your new mac out of the box, access your email, then open up a trojan attachment, then you've immediately broken all security associated with your brand new system.
The same is true for windows boxes, even less user interaction is required. For windows, if you take your new computer out of the box, turn it on, turn it on and start up an internet connection, you'll break it's security just by leaving it connected for 30 seconds.
Try looking again... the pretty picture lists the average depth of Lake Superior at 483 ft -- NOT the 500 ft. you listed. (Yes, I too can use bold in my post to make a point) Not to mention the fact that the average depth on the site you linked to lists the exact same average depth.
I gues you better start questioning your own ability to read.
Apple went through a couple of years trying to develop the next version of its OS while still maintaining complete backwards compatability? They ran into a roadblock and just couldn't do it.
Seems like the same thing might be hapening with MS. Think about what Apple did to solve the problem... it bought into a whole new OS by acquiring Next.
Could MS be headed down the same path? Could Apple and OS X be the target for an MS acquisition? Or maybe MS plans on building its Windows GUI on top of an open source OS?

Look at all the modern technology that was previously described in sci-fi films of the 1950's & 1960's.

If you paid $9,999 for 10,000 songs, then you were overcharged!
At current $0.99 per song pricing, 10,000 songs would cost $9,900

The differnce between a scientst and a theologist when presented with the ID theory:
The theologist thinks, OK, that makes sense, and accepts the proposition.
The scientist begins looking for the tools used by the intelligent being.

It sounds like it should be easy enough to make WM licenees believe the patch has been installed when it really hasn't.
/. has ended the discussion, once and for all, about whether size really does matter

You need to recheck those numbers - they don't all agree with the Wikipedia entry on the Great Lakes
