There's no reason to believe that. In fact all public evidence on Jobs thought process for Charitable giving say otherwise.

Jobs was a vicious, mean bastard, who treated pretty much everyone in his life like crap. He just happened to make great tech products. Btw I happen to own several of these products. Although now that I know as much as I do about him I guess I have to think about what that means.

There was some speculation that before he died he might have been giving anonymously. I call bullshit until proven otherwise. Based on how he treated his fellow human beings throughout his ENTIRE life AND how he treated his own children/family I have every reason to think he didn't give any of his $8Billion to charity.

And if that's the case I hope he's in his own special hell. You don't get to amass that much wealth, not give back and help when you really could have, and then get rewarded on the other side. That just can't be how it works, at least I hope not...

Apple's the only one allowed to use Aluminum in their designs?

Btw they'll probably keep the cost down by using netbook cpu/gpus. So yea you can have a 27" iMac that does 2560x1440 with a quad core i5 for $1700 or a 27" tv set running at 1920x1080 with a net book stuck to the back for probably $800. Different strokes and all that...

"If you think that Liberal or Conservative means anything other than flip sides of the same rotten corrupted coin, you're kidding yourself and lying to everyone including yourself."

They both may be greedy to the core parties when it comes to staying in power and doing favors, but if you paid even the slightest bit attention to how they vote on many key issues your statement couldn't be further from the truth.

The aforementioned iPod Touch has a neat remote wipe feature. You can go to apple's site, see exactly where your iPoe is on a map, remote lock it, send a message to the screen, and initiate a remote wipe of all your user data. It requires of course the thief be on wifi but I'm sure sooner rather than later they would have that online. Pretty neat for free.

Well at least the big price drop part. Ignoring the specifics its like wishing for Ferrari's to drop down to Accord prices. Both products perform the same basic purpose but one uses much different engineering to accomplish the same task. You can make the Ferrari engine cheaper by mass producing it, but it's just always going to be really expensive to produce no matter what. Same thing with SSDs.

Oh how I long for cheap 1TB SSD drives and Gigabyte ethernet Internet wide...
