  • The first couple months after 9/11 were definitely the best for Bush. As someone who was vaguely discontented with Bush taking office despite losing the popular vote in the 2000 election, I still displayed a lot of patriotism and support for Bush. I…
  • Shit, what happened? Did you just leave your bag unattended somewhere, or did someone yank it from you? I see unattended backpacks and other assorted bags left out WAY too often at my job at the library. The problem is, I usually can't tell whether …
  • Quote: Originally posted by dage007 Ya I burnt a dvd+RW on my G5 and it seemed to work. I am unsure what you mean by the dvd-r is the only supported media from apple? Not sure what that mean's but good to know I guess. I was also looking at th…
  • The only 12x DVD burner currently available is a Plextor model, and it only burns DVD+Rs at 12x. DVD-Rs (the format that Apple supports) only burn at 8x. If you want the best-supported DVD burner available, the Pioneer DVR-107D is the way to go. …
  • You can always just download Mozilla and make it look like IE. There are skins that make it look identical. Then just replace the icon, move all the bookmarks over, and you should be good. I bet she won't even notice.
  • The difference, 7E7, is that the prison abuse was carried out by members of the US military. Whether the administration had anything to do with it or not, we don't know yet, but they are still ultimately responsible for the actions of their military…
  • All sammi jo is saying is that we really don't have any proof that it's Al Qaeda (or anyone else for that matter), so we shouldn't be making assertions that it is definitely one specific group. Hell, you go on so much about the murderous Iraqis, …
  • Actually I've gotten that stuff. It should work for small ones, but it really didn't do anything to the ones on my toes. Basically it's just some very cold material in a bottle that is applied to a little foam applicator that you press down on the w…

  • And who exactly at this website/on the internet/in this country are supporters of Al Qaeda? And why do you think that someone is automatically an AQ-supporter if they simply question AQ's motives, perhaps thinking that there is a shred of outside fo…
  • Randycat, I have to agree with you that these people would do this sort of thing regardless of whether we had done anything wrong or not. The target would just be different. In this case, they feel they're being oppressed by evil white American devi…
  • If we nuke the Middle East, though, we have to show videos of children in the streets slowly dying after half their skin is melted off their body. We have to show the people whose eyes were burned out of their sockets because they didn't turn away f…
  • Quote: Originally posted by zodiac They covered most of one of my feet. I know what your talking about. I was comparing that to the time i cut off my finger. Well then I hope I never get my finger cut off!

  • Quote: Originally posted by zodiac You think that hurt? I've had that procedure done on my foot several times and yes, they hurt. Did you have warts covering 50% of your toes? Did they spray liquid nitrogen on them for two minutes? I'm not tal…

  • Oh man, you want to talk to someone about warts, I'm your man. I have two very LARGE clusters of warts on the inside of the first and second toes of my left foot. They rub against each other constantly spreading the virus from one toe to the other. …

  • It's still under warranty. Visit an Apple Store or call Apple about it.
  • Try setting your monitor to 640x480 before you launch Halo. Other than that, I'm not sure... I guess just make sure your copy is up to date.

  • If not, get a refurbished or older model system. Right now it's $2000 for a refurb dual 1.8, and $1300 for a 20" cinema display. The 20" cinema should come way down for the next update - it should be $999 at the highest, I think. And it'll be soon, …

  • It really depends on the specs of what comes out. Assuming you wait until WWDC (and you should since it's almost guaranteed that there will be updates then), see what's available and make your decision.

  • Also don't forget that you can get refurbished Macs for pretty cheap. Refurbished dual 1.8 GHz and dual 2.0 GHz PowerMacs are $1999 and $2399 respectively. If you wait until after the new G5s come out, you can probably get a previous generation dual…
