   So you fell into the social pressure aspect of Apple's Marketing technique? I thought of getting a Mac for college, however for the price it doesn't offer much over a Lenovo or a Dell. You get alot of nice touches, but those things I'd neve

   At this point you'd have to suggest a solution, because I cannot get what you're hinting at. If you can't my point original point is evident: the news agencies are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

   US laws on ownership are retarded. You know you live in a screwed up country when you can sell everything above the ground and below the air(gov't territory) to one buyer and everything below the ground to another.

   I'd like to see you try to get interoperability between Billings by Marketcircle and Peachtree by Sage, or with Quickbooks and Money Dance. Or by one version of Office and another. What you describe plagues all software. No one gives enough

   The problem is that they have tried that. It doesn't work because web advertising is significantly cheaper than print advertising is, especially because you cannot guarantee that someone has seen the advert on the web. Which is why they're

    I disagree, I still believe that the revenue streams are incompatible (due to culture, web users don't want to pay) or insufficient (such as ads) for a news agency to operate. What needs to happen is for someone to suggest a web culture com

    Well if you want to save big on energy costs and you don't mind your house being quirky an underground home is for you. When you're below the frost line, the underground temperature is 55-57 degrees F, in winter or summer. Plus you get grea

    I've heard this statement before in many different incarnations some with intonations of piracy, some without. However they all fail to see the basis of where the other party is coming from. They want to be adequately rewarded for you using

    I'd say that Freedom is a good price to fool around, after you break $200 for an iPhone + Contract price, + $100 for SDK, + $1,000 for a basic Macbook for development (AFAIK you can only use Mac to develop for iPhone) you've got a $1,300 in
