Yes, Windows is the only 'serious' platform to develop for, as I am sure Android will eventually be, but for now Android is more akin to DOS, you better have your autoexec.bat and config.sys setup properly or the fancy new game won't have enough memory to run.

Yes WYSIWYG is bad for generating final code. But, honestly, for non-CMS sites, I still find it much easier to have Dreamweaver with code/wysiwyg side by side, so I can quickly click on the element of a page I need to edit (type, replace image, etc) and go right into the code to do make the edit. Yes, it only saves a second or two of scanning html code, but that adds up over time. Some programs have created tree view/lists to mimic this - Code Navigator in Coda for example - but it's just not the same.

The other thing that I haven't found a replacement for is the library items/assets. Create your Navigation or Footer and then apply it to all pages of your site, links to images etc are updated as required depending on the page and how deep in the site structure it is. Lots of other programs have code snippets, but I haven't found one that will update links like this.

Obviously, both these things are not going to be required when dealing with CMS sites.

Because there is a big world beyond US borders, and some countries like Canada have 3 year contracts.

Yes! I've done it plenty of times on a first-gen intel macbook pro. And FYI, you can take your old ipod (at least the 'classic' one), mount your mac os install image onto that, and use the ipod to do a install just like from a dvd. I expect something similar should be doable with Lion.

Please take that shrilly devil spawn.

Yes! someone vote up please. Glad to see that I wasn't the only one thinking that it's not Facebook they're after but Last.fm and/or what's left of MySpace. It looks like an extension of the Genius service that came in the last version, but I guess now the recomendations/aggregation won't be anonymous anymore.

Yeah it's all cool to hate on the iPhone/iTunes ecosystem these days, but iOS is a little bit different from OS X. This is the one where it's all overpriced, too shiny, and you get charged for service packs.

Lets keep the hate-boyism straight.

I'd see these in an instant.

option a) Zombie Kane goes on a rampage to kill those that destroyed his precious. Somehow the original movers/people that were hired to clean out the estate all had kids who turn out to be super hot chicks that happen to all go to the same college. roosseeebudd.... roooseeebudd.... braiiinnnsss brainnsss... Kane burn and smash like you smash and burn rosebud...

option b) Kane fakes his own death to become a fighter of crime, and volunteer at orphanages around the world. Next years 'surprise' 'indie' hit. A kind of Batman written by Chris Ware. Starring Philip Seymour Hoffman or Paul Giamatti in the title role.

These are freebies!

Yes, it is the nurses job to double check everything, and from the stats it's obvious that 99.99 percent of the time this happens.

The problem is handling of extreme cases. The nurse is at the end of her/his 8 hour shift when an emergency happens, they have 10 seconds to add medical compound A to Tube B, there are half a dozen other people swarming around doing their part to help the patient, who could be having convulsions or is just flailing around uncontrollably. Yes, it's their job to triple check that they are putting things into the right tube, but under conditions like these it gets easier to make a mistake. For most nurses the adrenaline kicks in and it's all good, but even if 1 in a 10,000 make a mistake that ends up being quite a few people at the end of the year.

These nurses can literally hold someone's life in their hands, but they get less respect and pay that someone pushing clip-art around in PowerPoint all day.

Ah well, bad attempt at humour is lost on people I guess.

Was getting one more turn (so really about 3 dozen) of Civ in before finishing my 'first post' comment, that's why it's way down the middle of the conversation.

Ha Ha.

Yeah, I'm not quitting my dayjob.
