I'm curious.

How difficult would it be to drop a NASA LTE tower on Mars and a GPS sat?

Say what you want but about the idea... but GPS / LTE is fairly useful on earth. Interplanetary text messaging fees, knowing Verizon, would be about $140,000 each.

Maybe not so much.

However we don't get to see full nuclear warfare because Tim Cook isn't Steve Jobs. Tim Cook is a peace maker. Steve Jobs was a psychopathic OG.

If we wanted great entertainment, Steve Jobs, I honestly believe would spend hundreds of billions to just fuck Samsung.

I'm a graphics whore.

I get a hilariously good gaming system every 4 years. I did that a month ago.

Like I just bought Skyrim during the $30 steam sale. Since it's Bethesda I immediately went over to the local modding site (nexus) and looked for the community highest end texture and additional sound pack.

If you're going to dump hundreds of hours into a game, might as well look at something nice. Fallout 3 / NV anyone?

Just for fun I uninstalled the packs and played the first hour with vanilla. It was an entirely different (worse) experience.

The game is really boring, repetitive, BUT it's pretty. That's what I like.

No xserves, Lion Server is a piece of shit, ARD is a $90 add-on, took 3 years for a corporate iOS configuration tool, 5 for a competent one, Final Cut X rivals Windows Movie Composer, Mac Pros are $4,000 for almost 3 year old hardware, and with 10.8 tethering every machine to the App Store there are no "unregistered" machines...

They're pro-sumer devices anymore.
