I have nothing to add to the debate, but I love that you define proper SSD use as "(massive torrenting of porn and deleting it afterwards)".
Kudos, good sir.

Without disagreeing with anything you say (not necessarily agreeing either), would this same logic apply to the drone strikes in Pakistan?

Hey, I don't use them, I was merely suggesting a viable solution if you happen to be curious about what the link might be. If you have never tried it, the preview function shows you the full url of the site without taking you there. The hostility is a bit misplaced, don't you think?

Uh, calm down and turn on the 'preview' feature for tinyurl...

Your assertion is correct, but you gave a sort of bad example. If a kid signs up for a sport at school (for example), generally there is a contract signed by the kid that he or she will not do drugs or will be tossed off the team. This is above and beyond what the rest of the student body is subjected to, and the kid makes the choice to sign. If the cops report it to the school, the issue is clear cut.
But there are many other examples out there to back what you said.

Wow, one whole guy, eh? Good thing he was an elected representative for all Swedish people, sent out in the world to give others an idea of what his fellow countrymen are like. :P

Oh, come on... You're not even going to use [a href="url">Link text/a] as an example? (obviously you would need to replace [] with the proper symbols...) Correction FAIL.

I'm sure there is a joke in here somewhere involving aliens and mood lighting...

Uh, I think that depends on the nature of the contract between Google and T-Mobile. If the phone costs Google X to manufacture and they are selling it for less than X as part of a contract where T-Mobile pays them some portion of the difference, it makes some sense that Google would want to recoup that money if you cancel the contract with T-Mobile. There is no restocking fee here, you are keeping the phone, just not the contract.
T-Mobile ETF is almost a red herring here, phone companies charge that either way. And you paying T-Mobile ETF probably does not reimburse Google (my guess).

Uh, yeah, you mean like it says in the summary at the top of the page?

As far as I can tell, the difference here is that this phone is not being sold by the carrier, but by Google. Not trying to be an apologist for Google, but I *guess* it makes sense...

You do know there is already ___@mac.com, right?

Glenn Beck gets ripped for a hell of a lot more than that...

I guess the only question is... why don't you take a look at TFA and get all your questions answered, instead of rushing here to try for a FP?

I was talking about *under* that limit, and I was thinking he was as well.
