Ahhhh, I get ya. Makes sense. I think the design is why it works. Nice and simple - a lot of this stuff is over designed I find. Will get using it and provide feedback if I have it!

"How big is this page? Huge! The exact size depends on the screen resolution on your PC, but the page is almost 1 mile (1.6 Km) high and 800 feet (250 m) wide." Wow - pretty crazy.

For some reason I find pictures of people's faces when they're using computers really off putting. Every has this hollow, empty expression, like they're looking into some void. But these people probably didn't knowingly buy a stolen laptop.

Not the way to do it, Apple. But this is an amazing way to deal with the situation. He's frank, honest and comes off looking like he's got the situation under control. Marketing types should bookmark this for future reference - great way to

Good news - although their download caps are pathetic so you're just gonna hit them quicker. Was more interested in how carrier aggregation works though. Quite interesting: http://www.3gpp.org/Carrier-Aggregation-explained EDIT: Probably

Totally. I also hate the idea that everyone's opinion is valid and should be revered. I know very little about nuclear reactors, so my opinion isn't as valid as someone who actually knows stuff about nuclear reactors. It's what makes radio

Oh, wow. That was stunning. Heart in my mouth the entire time, I cannot imagine what it was like to watch that in real time. http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo.html Always worth a read for more context and 'Moonshot' is pre
