It's exactly what it needs to be. The market is not ready for a full on electric vehicle. Range, charge time, infrastructure, cost, etc is not where they need to be.
The Volt offers people to never use gas, but it is there if they need it. It's just the next stepping stone to eventually getting off gasoline. The Volt can appeal to everyone once the price of the technology goes down. The Leaf on the other hand appeals to a more limited group of people right now because it can only go 100 miles on a charge with a long recharging time.
I just wish they would be honest in their marketing for it. T

Here is another way of stopping the whine (for a short time):
TURN ON BLUETOOTH and use a mouse!
At the office i work with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
When using a mouse it stops permanent.
At home i work without it and turn normaly bluetooth off.
Now i descovered that when i turn on bluetooth the whine stops ...
But when not using a bluetooth device it comes back after some time.
Getting stranger every minute ....
Actually this used to be a macbook pro problem only.
After the efi firmware update it seems to spread to the macbooks (white, 1.83 here)

Princetonians, in my experience, are fratboys, prudes, and associated squares--by far the worst of the Ivies. Not a creative bone in the entire student body. They wouldn't know Macintosh if it bit them in their collective beige butt.
So tell me, how on earth is this good news? Unimaginative folk like these don't belong on our platform. Much better to celebrate the longstanding prevalence of Macs on progressive, independent-minded, and artistic campuses such as Brown and Columbia. But Princeton? Give me a break.

I would also suggest better suited than Americans to face a future where cooperation, both nationally and internationally, will become a more valued and necessary trait.
If you're speaking about politician's ability to cooperate is a valued trait and many others are better suited, but if you're talking about regular americans and their ability cooperate during tough times all you have to do is look to the out-pouring of goodwill in the aftermath of 9/11. Japanese politicians are just as bureaucratic and divisive as american politicians if not more.
Otherwise the connection between what americans could or would do in the future in regards to cooperation and the penchant for the japanese to behave during a time of crisis is a bit flimsy.

I fail to see the point. Generally I'm very excited by Apple products. They are wonderful innovators and produce top quality. But MobileMe and this leave me wondering. I don't see how this is going to give me any benefit. There's only so many hours of music in a day. An iPodTouch, iPhone, iPad, etc hold more music than I'll listen to in a year. WTP?

I agree that culture plays a part as well.
But seeing as your from Norway, who is also on the good end of that chart, what are your thoughts on the possibility of mass looting there I wonder?

I'm in the same boat. I'm using a 3G with cracked screen and other issues. I originally wanted the white iPhone 4, but held out and decided to just wait until the 5. Now that the white 4 is definitely coming out and the 5 is possibly delayed I am thinking about grabbing the white 4. I will be really disappointed if the 5 ends up coming out in June/July though. It doesn't seem likely, but you never know. I figure I'll see what the latest rumors are at the time of the white launch - assuming there isn't anything pointing to a summer release of the 5, I'm just going to go for it.
Plus you can just sell the 4 on ebay or something, if the iPhone 5 comes out soon there after. It'll fetch the same price or a little less than the iPhone 5's non-contract price. So you can just buy a non-contract iPhone 5 and use that as the hardware on your current iPhone line. It's one way to get around renewing your contract for 2 more years and paying fees.

Which is why he said he is either delusional OR a liar. Basically he is blowing smoke up everybody's ***. You can't deny that there is a signal issue. It is very easily reproduced. Also it is not just the bars, but a lot of times the call will get choppy or drop. Then when you take your fingers off it is clear as a crystal.

Wait a minute...I think I see your problem. Just click once on you document folder and it will open very quickly.
what you are doing is simulating a right click (Click and hold the button down). this will bring up a Start menu-like interface).. I think if you right click this will happen instantly, too.... (or maybe it's option-click...I'm not on my mac at the moment, unfortunately). There is SUPPOSED to be a delay when you click and hold like that.
I've never seen Finder slow... and I'm on the same machine as you are.
(of course I may have completely misread this and be totally wrong, in which case I would ask what apps you have open, how much memory is on the machine, etc.)
No, I already knew to cntl-click. I originally meant right click on the documents folder. I guess I have a lot of folders because it takes mine forever to open. I have 1 GB of ram and things do get sanppier once something is cached but it is still painfully slow.
It also takes awhile for my system to open windows with many folders or files in them.
I have always thought OS X finder was slow. OS 9 always seemed snappier and windows has a much snappier GUI. I am just hoping that Leopard fixes these issues.

It will probably work the way Amazon's new service does. Only the music you purchase moving forward can be synced in the cloud.
That's not how Amazon's service works. I uploaded 12GB of music I own (ripped CD's) from iTunes, and can now stream it from their Cloud Player. Works great. I just wish Amazon would make an iOS version of the Cloud Player. Then I couldn't care less what Apple does with their cloud service. Unless it's cheaper. :D

I don't post here much and don't want to get caught up too much in the hoopla but here is our point of view:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMMGQN2R9UE
I'm not posting a youtube file for self promotion or anything as it's the only video I've ever posted on youtube but it's a crappy made comparison of my 3GS and my wifes 4.
The video's are not altered in any way and they happen to match timing exactly which was cool... Neither phone will completely drop and they are done in my home recliner where we have 100% reception always.
Read the description to the video if you want to know my thoughts I guess : )
FYI, You're description states both the 3gs and Ip4 are on the right.

Jon Stewart seems to have goofed here, and there's the problem. There's no way unring this bell. Jon missed about 90% of the story, and according to his views, opening a criminal investigation is not ok if it'd going to cause the plaintiff bad publicity, or if the plaintiff seems "mean."
Jon needs to stick to political commentary, which is usually a lot easier to play with than scenarios that involve finer points of law.
Section 2080 of the Civil Code provides that any person who finds and takes charge of a lost item acts as "a depositary for the owner." If the true owner is known, the finder must notify him/her/it within a reasonable time and "make restitution without compensation, except a reasonable charge for saving and taking care of the property." Id. � 2080. If the true owner is not known and the item is worth more than $100, then the finder has a duty to turn it over to the local police department within a reasonable time. Id. � 2080.1. The owner then has 90 days to claim the property. Id. � 2080.2. If the true owner fails to do so and the property is worth more than $250, then the police publish a notice, and 7 days after that ownership of the property vests in the person who found it, with certain exceptions. Id. � 2080.3.
Moving along, Gawker Media better be ready to defend themselves because shield laws won't help if you've committed a felony in order to do a story. That US$5,000 payment is a major smoking gun if Apple can prove the prototype iPhone was officially stolen, which means Gawker Media paid to buy stolen property, a felony in the state of California.
thanks for the information, and i completely agree with your points (because of their obvious validity) and your signature which I am in the process of doing right now.

I can also say that the incoming class at my college was 60+% mac. Granted, tutition here is like $43,000 and the student body is about 1600, so this is a not a broad sampling of the population. Still a good sign, though.
