and make all the rules so that we win, we can go right ahead. But what do we really gain from it?

Here's an argument that is supposedly hard to make: Equal dignity for equal sacrifice makes it a priority. This brings LBGT troops a step closer to being able to talk to a military chaplain about their home and family, and allowing their partners to access grief counseling open to widowed military spouses, as well as support groups for families with veterans suffering from PTSD. It brings us closer to allowing same sex partners to see their loved ones off, and welcome them home from active service, just to name a few benefits. While it would be great they weren't there in the first place, they are, and deserve that support as much as any other service member.

Yes. Not to mention cumbersome, and trying to do too many things at once. The lady felt like she was fighting it instead of using it. And people think the iPad is underwhelming? No thanks, I'll pass.

I bought a decorative storage box from IKEA. It stores about 3 1/2 cubic feet of cabling, including A/C D/C converters, a cable modem with corresponding cables, ad splitters, some network cabling. A mac mini may be mini, but it's cabling sure isn't. (OK and a monitor, keyboard, time capsule, external 250 MB drive, external 1TB drive, eyeTV converter, etc)

This is a good thing :-)
