our ETR here in ontario. (eletronic toll route) snaps a photo of the license plate, and bills you.. If you want to track vehicles crossing the border, you dont need any electronics in the car.. you just need a database of tag #'s. I know when I cross the border they already know how long I was out of the country,.

Remember, you can have safe sex, you cannot have safe war!

Seems to me to this is reason people seek violence in their entertainment. Its something a lot of people do not see in everyday life, atleast in middle-class america. Personally, I dont like violent entertainment, aside from the odd "who-dun-it" show... but it seems to me that the norm is Sex in the bedroom, murder in the livingroom.

as a computer savvy "user" who doesnt give a flying leap about logo's.. I took the five minutes to look up some Vista reviews before spending an ass load of money... end result, I never owned it... same logic kept me from buying an Apple... I ended up with a consumer grade laptop for under 500 dollars that was mroe than capable of what I wanted it for, and a slap-together-from-bits desktop for even less that was able to do some of the more intensive stuff i wanted...

Now, I find myself with a windows 7 machine that I love, and a work laptop running 7.... I want a Mac for the first time ever, just dont wanna spend (what I believe to be) too much money for one...

using Sony and Vista as examples of why Apple might be better is like saying Baseball is better than Hockey becuase I got hit in the nuts with a puck one day at walmart
