Comment Just buy a NetBook (Score 1) 1217

There are some nice netbooks that will work well as Hackintosh computers. Then these Mac Netbook users can make fun of the idiots that spent $900 for a heavy laptop, when then could spend $250 on a lightweight Hackintosh capable of running the all the crap software the school makes them use. Heck, when I bought OS X for my Hackintosh, the OS came with pretty Apple logo stickers for my case. It was obviously designed to be installed on Non-Apple hardware.

Tower Switch-Off Embarrasses Electrosensitives 292

Sockatume writes "Residents in Craigavon, South Africa complained of '[h]eadaches, nausea, tinnitus, dry burning itchy skins, gastric imbalances and totally disrupted sleep patterns' after an iBurst communications tower was put up in a local park. Symptoms subsided when the residents left the area, often to stay with family and thus evade their suffering. At a public meeting with the afflicted locals, the tower's owners pledged to switch off the mast immediately to assess whether it was responsible for their ailments. One problem: the mast had already been switched off for six weeks. Lawyers representing the locals say their case against iBurst will continue on other grounds."

I do not want to give up the efficient text editing capabilities of VIM though. How do I have my cake and eat it too?"
