I've got a pair of Quested F11's (the sexy purple version) at home, and I think they sound really "good" :) They're the best investment I've ever made, but I'm just a music-enthusiast. I was roughly aware of the issues you brought up, and

I heard you have to keep a very close eye on your containers in China though. But yeah, sounds cool!

How about setting a suitable default zoom level? That way you only have to sometimes decrease it. ( At least Opera supports this, don't remember about Firefox )

Can you prove that God exists? Otherwise it's just a fairy tale :) How would you prove that Google is not doing anything evil? You assume they're not, but that's just as (in)valid as my assumption that they might be. You could argue tha

I used to read some developers' personal blogs and every time they posted a photo, I'd feel some weird envy, even when it was stupid photos. "Oh, man, he and a friend went to buy some milk! I hate that I'm inside living a boring life!" --
