  • And look what I found! It's the new SP1 for Vista! Looks like they've tried to add even more security (with the extra bodyguards and armored car and what-not), but in the end it's just another sad rip-off of OSX.

  • But the big question is... will Launch-O come in brown?

  • Just checked out the Prosper site. Looks like Kiva except that you're actually making interest on the loans instead of being simply philanthropic. Maybe after Kiva that will be my next little experiment. Thanks for the info!

  • Wow...it's like you were reading my mind Nick! I had this same idea last night and was going to post it this morning. There have been a few threads like this in AI, but I'm always curious what people are reading on other parts of the web. I've …

  • All this talk about a possible Police reunion has kept my iPod on nothing but Ghost in the Machine and Synchronicity all day. Looks like they're all set for a concert at Fenway. Better start saving for those tickets now...

    in Bose In-Ear Headphones Review Comment by corkurk February 2007
  • I'm intrigued by the Bose In-Ear Headphones, but I agree with Shadow Slayer that their products are usually more marketing muscle than actual substance. Sure they sound better than your cheap headphones, but you can usually find quality that is jus…

  • I've got the firewall turned on in OSX and I'm feeling at least a little more informed about the whole thing. I'm not trying to be too paranoid about it, but I also don't wan't to be caught off guard. Thanks again.
    in Public Wi-Fi safe on OSX? Comment by corkurk February 2007
  • Thanks for the info. So it sounds like the security features built into OSX would keep anyone from looking at the files on my hard drive over an open Wi-Fi network. Makes me feel a little better. However, I've also read about the so called "pac…

  • I know it's a pipe dream...but I would love to see a new Newton. Still have fond memories of my 2100. I've still got it lying around and used it until quite recently actually. I got quite a few odd stares when I would pull it out at Starbucks and…
