Tip, tricks, questions, what's new in technology......

Not everyone wants to be a Mac person; and what would it be like if everyone did?

I wouldn't have had to buy MacLink Plus Deluxe 15. But I can live with it.

I doubt that Counter Strike Counter Terrorism Action Powered by Half-Life Technologywould fill any voids my life might have.

What is cool is Bluetooth. My PC, network printer, Palm, phone and headset all communicate flawlessly and transfer data between each other effortlessly. That's really cool

Bluetooth is great. Of course Macs have bluetooth capability as well. What is also cool is Airport for your stereo, where you plug it in and it wirelessly plays your Mac's music on your home stereo.

If I cant even play Counter Strike on it...well that doesn't really seem very cool.

To me, gaming is for gaming platforms, not PCs. But I agree, it's not cool when game makers only make them for the one platform.

Yup. I have been looking around at wireless media servers...the prices have been dropping so quickly I have held off for a while. It will be great to be able to have my winamp playlists playing through the house, especially when we are entertaining :-)

So now I'll only get 49 spam mails a day instead of 50.

China is where the US was 45 years ago, Fold. They've had 1 mini space flight.

Get a grip.

Anyone getting Nazi spam?

"Most of these messages contain links to news stories with content that "smells of right-wing political rhetoric,'' said Vincent Gullotto, vice president of McAfee Inc.'s antivirus emergency response team."

A ton of people at work got it, including myself.

None at my private addresses though.

That was probably done by one of those smelly, right-wing Nazi bastards in order to get you mad at George Saros, John Kerry and Bruce Springsteen.

A lot of nasty things are said about DeLay, but he hasn't been charged with anything yet.

Apple is switching from IBM to Intel processors. We may be able to run OS X on Windows architecture sooner than you think.

I tried out firefox and wasn't that impressed. On my machine it was much slower than IE, and had lots of difficulty with the Yahoo! site. Since I use yahoo mail this made it very aggravating. I loved some of the features though.

UMASS-Amherst researchers report in the June 23, 2005 issue of Naturethat Geobacterproduces pilin-like filaments that function as nanowires to transfer electrons outside the cell onto insoluble electron acceptors, such as iron minerals and possibly electrodes. The filaments, which are only 3-5 nanometers in width (more than 10,000 times finer than a human hair), can extend more than 20 micrometers in length (more than 10 times the length of the cell). Elucidation of this novel form of electron transfer provides insight into the mechanisms by which Geobactercan contribute to bioremediation of groundwater contaminated with organic and metal contaminants. The potential to biologically mass-produce fine, long conductive filaments may have applications in the development of nanoelectronic devices, sensors, and microbially based fuel cells.

JT is the dummy who posted such an idiotic tag-line.
