Before switching to Apple, I was going through a PC laptop every 12 months. My MacBook Pro is going on three years and I really have no need to upgrade despite the allure of the new models. It's not hard to see many older MacBook models floating around. I wonder how much of the increased shelf life is due to the increase in Apple switchers?

It still equals 1-2%.

People might laugh at this...but this guy is probably serious. I picked me up a little cancer last year and ended up hospitalized (20 years old, at that) for a few months, figuring I'd not see a single good-looking woman for some time - I was so wrong. Seriously, just being in the hospital here you run into like 5 grade A hotties every day (when you only see like 15 people in a day that's a lot)

It's not so much the nurses, although maybe 1/8 of them were both hot and young in the wards I was in, but the techs. The x-ray techs and the MRI techs, many if not most of the high-tech workers, were hot 20-something females!

It is quite obvious that the US government is trying to keep America on terrorist alert for as long as they can. By having the "terrorists" disrupting the American way of life in every area possible, ensures public support for the Bush war effort.

This is overkill!
