It looks like a really nice phone, i just wish it wasn't so large.

Exactly... Everyone keeps touting the "diversity" of Android phones. However, nearly every non-budget phone pretty much looks the same. I'd really like to buy an Android phone with the size, fit, and polish of an iPhone 5, but such a thing doesn't exist...

So, Plasmas are still better than LEDs? I still use CRTs.

I hate that they call them "LED TVs" -- they're simply LCD, with an LED backlighting. And, it turns out that LED backlighting often has a worse color gamut than the old CFL backlighting...

And, yes, plasma are quite visibly better than all but the very best (local dimming, etc.) LCDs...

Okay, maybe that's an exaggeration. But not much. Big companies like Google (YouTube) rely on that provision all the time.

You're not Google...

Should someone download CP using your connection, you're being naive if you think that it's not likely that some prosecutor will decide to go after you. It is not a cut-and-dried issue, as you imply...

on a different but related note what is with the general public conflating mac use with tech savvy? most mac users i know use it because they are to confused by windows so need a easier system. I know that not all are that way but that has just been my personal experience.

Maybe in your call center. Most engineers that I work with have Macs as their personal systems (we use Linux for development).

Actually, as a definite night person, I have no trouble at all staying awake, even for a couple of days. I do, however, have trouble getting awake after having gone to sleep. My whole family is that way...

And my experience with morning people, is that they very definitely do fade toward the end of the day, whereas the most awake that I am all day is right before I go to bed.

I definitely wouldn't want to be in a car driven at night by a morning person. My experience is that they are much more prone to falling asleep...
