  1. Re:THAT certainly scared me! on Your Own Mini-Stalker · · Score: 2, Interesting
    When I was doing business in Russia in the early 90s, Russian businessmen regularly would take the batteries out of their cellphones when not using them in order to prevent GPS tracking and/or remote recording of conversations via the cellphone's mic.

    Paranoid or rightfully wary?

    (Or maybe just Russian?)

  2. ThinkSecret's had a lousy track record on The Next-Gen iMac With Brushed Aluminum In August? · · Score: 4, Informative

    Unfortunately, ThinkSecret's reputation has taken quite a beating. Most recently they came out with a prediction a month or so agou about an alleged next-day release of hardware. When the prediction failed to come to pass, TS silently deleted the prediction -- rather bad form for the rumor site. This latest 'update' from TS is merely more of the same. Aluminum or black iMac ... coming soon. They keep changing the release date when the last one doesn't come to pass. And it doesn't take someone with inside information to realize that Apple hasn't come out with an iMac refresh in more than 300 days and that one is therefore going to be out by the new school term.

  3. Fairly clever marketing on Apple to Charge for Boot Camp? · · Score: 1

    This way Apple sells OS X 10.5 for $129 with Boot Camp integrated in the OS, thus allowing the argument that the OS *really* only costs $100 with Boot Camp added in.
