So? It isn't the hardware that's insecure. A PC running OSx86 is just as secure as a Mac doing the same, and conversely a Mac running Windows is just as insecure as a PC doing the same.

Comment Re:Video? Get a good compact (Score 1) 184

Agreed, my Canon Ixus 60 takes better video than some hard disk-based camcorders I've tried and it's tiny. Just get the biggest SDHC card you can find and he'll be fine. I believe some newer PowerShots can do HD video, too. I think they also have a new ruggedized version which may be handy for his situation.

Of course, staying home may be a better option than dying to protect non-renewable resources.

2048 by 1080 means 2211840 pixels per inch

No, it simply means 2211840. No units in the operands means no units in the result.

1920 by 720 means 1382400 pixels per inch

Same, but this time you're referring to a resolution that nothing uses.

"Full HD" is 1920x1080=2073600 so the theater only has 6.25% more pixels than a home "Full HD" screen.
