   Just curious, is it a pgadmin3 on OSX that is the problem for you or pgadmin3 in general? On Windows, I find that I quite like pgadmin3 as compared to MySQL workbench but it's likely just a matter of taste.

   Just my opinion, but most phones won't have the horsepower to run ICS and the carriers are always loathe to spend manpower porting a new release to a old phone when what they really want is for you to buy a new phone an re-up for another 2

   I invited some colleagues but Dropbox denied the referrals because they said it came from the same computer. It came from the same IP (our corp firewall). I didn't feel like fighting it because I'm under my limit anyway.

    The number pad doesn't work for me but the keyboard numbers do. I started to debug but was scared off by seeing all the gwt-* class names. ;-) WinXP Chrome 16.something (dev channel)

    I was fortunate enough to get a Samsung tablet from Google IO. I wanted to treat it like a shared device and eventually shut off Google Talk and Gmail so my family did not get annoyed by the notification messages when I wasn't using it. I

    I don't know if the numbers are true but if they are the carriers and phone makers are doing it to themselves. I upgraded my wife's android phone a couple of weeks ago and she picked a Samsung (on verizon). After she got it home and played

    I bought a Chromebook for my parents which are very similar to your dad in computer skills. Over Christmas I got them set up with a Google account using my CR48. 1. I always disable the mobile data when I'm on wifi cause I don't want to bu

    nitpick: DB2 on the iSeries (nee AS/400) is DB2 in name only. That being said, I do the same thing using Python.

    It's unfortunate that the toolkit that this is based on, NaCl ( http://nacl.cace-project.eu/ ) shares an acronym with another prominent Chrome feature, Native Client ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Native_Client )

    I don't know if it will ultimately be a huge success story but I think 'Cordy' http://www.cordythegame.com/ is fantastic and is Android only. We bought the full version within a few minutes of playing the trial version.

    I'll see your 'GarageBand' and raise you a 'SketchUp' and 'GoogleEarth'. Now I don't mean to get in a tit-for-tat because that's not the point. They just concentrate on different things.
