So, avoid refurb, or any nVidia GPU? Hello integrated graphics!

Military Intelligence is truly a ridiculous concept. Anyway, who's playing quake with me on NSA supercomputers tonight?

What could possibly go wrong?

1) Write app which "looks" like it does something. 2) Make it shiny icons & UI 3) Guarantee up to 1 million USD 4 any data loss via virus. 4) Profit!!! I think physical access is required for even theoretical exploits. How do we know "any" Mac OS X antivirus app works? It has to find nothing to prove it.... hmm. What a racket!

1) I write an application using interface builder. The icon is extra shiny - the UI is sexy - attaching knobs, sliders, buttons, progress bars showing "blood vessels" being filled with pure green glowing fluid. It looks like it is doing all sorts of things, claims to utilize a new Quantum computing algorithm no one else can. 2) In order to detect all zero computer virus, trojan, etc. It doesn't need to "do" anything. I therefore make sure it does nothing. Just looks sexy and like it's always working away.... 3) I include a full warranty, plus up to $1,000,000 if any Mac OS X virus destroys your data. Satisfaction guaranteed, 90 day money back offer. 4) Profit!!!!! In fact, since there has never been a virus on Mac OS X, what criteria can we use to evaluate the ability of antivirus software which has nothing to detect? Republicans confirm, it is easy to scare people, especially non tech people.

You need to "foster" Computer & Gaming interests in kids? Ever read the news? You need to force them to stop playing video games and DO HOMEWORK or go outside! You don't need to "teach" them to look at shiny blinking lights..... Why does this person as a parent frighten me?

Apple is a business, with 30% profit margins. How can a $400 nettbook earn any profit? Why would most of the consumers "need" one? They are a "neat idea", but useful? Not so much...

All combined TabletPC's are too small of a market, even for a small company like Apple. -steve @ shareholders meeting. Netbooks, have so many compromises, less than an full OS, underpowered. Who "Needs" this product for work/school/hobby - is it worth no DVDs, a screen too small to read? Does not meet minimum requirements for Office? Who is this for??? iPod was for everyone who listens to music. Mac was for people who found computers complicated and too hard to use. iPhone gave one device with features which are useful instead of 95% unused.... Who buys a netbook, and why?

I can't find an actual link to the blog, anyone?

Small percentage of HD's, 100% of Barracuda 1.5TB buyers? Well, it's a start.... and this time it's really not Vista?
