Any time I've watched someone getting something fixed at an Apple store they seem to be pretty pleased about the ordeal.
I'm more than pleased. From all the Laptop/PC Companies that I've dealt with in the past, Apple's Support is lightyears ahead in terms of customer satisfaction, customer service, promptly helping users fix issues they may be having, and just overall friendliness of their Support rep's.
Thats standard Apple support. Sometimes they screw up, but I've never had issues with their support.
This is true. Everyone makes mistakes, even Apple, but a real company that cares about customer satisfaction will own up to those mistakes and fix them if they should arise. That is what has happened here. The Apple Support rep admitted that some MacBook Air's experience this problem, but helped to show me how I can go about fixing my issue/getting it fixed at a nearby Apple Store.
Hey SR71 :)
Good to hear! Apple do indeed have fantastic support, and I had a similar issue within a week of buying my MBP. They replaced it no questions asked. Unlike countless issues I had with Dell, and they refused to replace my faulty product! Enjoy the MBA :)
I couldn't agree more! Dell and HP have the worst Support, in my opinion. They're slow to help you with your problems, they are hard to understand over the phone (or at least in my experience with HP they were), and lastly, they don't seem to care about customer satisfaction.
All in all, I'm extremely satisfied and couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Thank you Apple Support. :)

Why should the Bioshock moniker be connected to Andrew Ryan or Rapture? It is more connected to the plasmids.
To me, the all-encompassing theme of both original BioShock games is the world of Rapture, in which the plasmids are only a small part as a whole. You have Ryan, Rapture, Big Daddies, Little Sisters, Splicers, Tennenbaum, etc. All of the "BioShock" games had all of those things in common, not just plasmids. And really, going by the lore in the game, the plasmids themselves were engineered by Ryan Industries, thus connecting him just as much as the plasmids themselves.
Think of it like Halo. The Halo games aren't just the story of Master Chief. They are the story of the Forerunners, the Covenant, ONI and the UNSC, the Flood, the Spartan program, the Halo rings, etc. So while Chief, like the plasmids, plays a large role in a few of the games and books, he isn't all that the entire story and its lore is all about.
Which is why, to me, I hope there is some connection to those original games and their world, and not just a name. If it turns out that putting "BioShock" in the name of a game and using plasmid-type mechanics ends up being like putting the "Final Fantasy" name and RPG elements in a game, I will be very sad.

I don't like to say.... "command-s", i like to say "apple-s". Mac users are different. with less technical terms that pc users, we do things better than them!!!
That is funny to me because in the past I've been admonished by an apple service repair tech for calling it the apple key and not the command key.
But then, computer technicians are generally arrogant sad little trolls whether they work on macs or windows computers.

they may be a bit dated now, but they're still right. no matter how much you may dislike it, the majority of visitors to a website will be from IE, and it's completely pointless to not code for IE as you delete nearly 80% of your audience. that's all well and good if you're just coding for yourself and want a rebellious "mac only" site, but if you're coding a commercial site, you need to make it work across the board. it's just pretty annoying that there isn't anything for mac that truly represents the IE6 platform to make this possible.
it's swings and roundabouts really...

I like the whole idea, it works for me - until I realize I'm stuck with Mac, what am I suppose to do with my MP3 player? I guess the logical answer would be, buy an i-pod? Who has the money to go buy everything as soon as it is on the market? Come on folks, give us MP3 users a chance!

I am hoping for the day the world is engulfed in a Nuclear time bomb.. I am about ready to leave this crude and vile world.
haha!
I was about to post the same thing, except I wouldn't want to leave the world, I would somehow miraculously survive and roam the devastated cities with a cloak, or maybe a cape, I haven't decided yet.
-------------
This perhaps raises a bigger question
Does having a cape matter? Do you own a cape or something similar?

could be a bug with a program that "hacks" the system, such as an icon editor. try turning off any login items and restarting. also, for everyone else (royal pineapple already posted this there), check out my panther bugs and problems thread at funmac.com (http://www.funmac.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2063)

Good luck selling it for that price. I've got a premium unit (with Kameo, extra wireless controller, charge kit) listed at BIN $999 and have gotten little interest. I've even offered to ship it for free. I am hoping I can sell it for that price, otherwise I may just have to actually keep it, or god forbid give it to my dad for xmas. :p Good luck with selling yours.
I have my 360, 3 games (Madden, NBA 2k6, CODII) and a Wireless Network Adpater bundle going for $999. just listed it tonight. We'll see if anyone is that desparate.

well Guess what Popped up in Ea's Web store for pre order today though no date has been given yet EA did spill the detailes on the plot
Earth is burning. Striking from beyond known space, a race of terrifying machines have begun their destruction of the human race. As Commander Shepard, an Alliance Marine, your only hope for saving mankind is to rally the civilizations of the galaxy and launch one final mission to take back the Earth.
Cant wait to see the trailer at the VGA's :D

Steve Jobs and My Life of Crime
Steve Jobs has taught me many things, directly and indirectly, over the years. But one of the most useful and memorable is the correct method of breaking and entering a locked executive office.
It was sometime in 1978, and Apple had recently moved into a new building on Bandley Drive in Cupertino. The building had four quadrants: northwest was Engineering, southwest was Administration, southeast was Manufacturing, and northeast was empty (for the moment) and housed a ping-pong table. Steve was working in the early evening and I was in a nearby cubicle writing technical documentation.
I don�t remember if I heard loud swearing or not, I can�t imagine there wasn�t. But Steve was late for an evening appointment and had locked his keys in his office. The administrative staff (Sherri Livingston) had gone home and he was stuck. I popped my head over the cubicle wall and he said "Espinosa, c'mover here."
What he wanted me to do was to stand on a chair, push up an acoustic tile into the suspended ceiling, hoist myself up into the ceiling space and balance on the aluminum door framing, pop out the tile on the other side, and drop into his office. Though short, nerdy and allergic to sports I was still wiry and limber, and Apple was a such a free-form place I didn�t consider that breaking into the company founder�s office was out of my job description.
It took moments, I didn�t fall and break my fool neck or twist my ankle on the eight foot drop, and after I popped the door open Steve grabbed his keys, thanked me warmly, and left. I went back to my writing with a new job skill under my belt. It came in handy several times over the years when I locked myself out of my own office after hours, and once when an Engineering VP found a large poster of John Sculley Scotch-taped to the inside of his office window. (He had Security investigate for weeks and never figured out how it was done.)
I hope that my readers can appreciate that Breaking Into Other Peoples� Offices Is Wrong and that this knowledge should be used only for good, never for evil. (And I�ve been chagrined to note that some buildings have pony walls that extend a couple feet into the ceiling space to make this trick harder.) But you should also take to heart that in any job there are always new, useful skills to be learned.

I bought a docking station for my ipod 3G, a Zenex ZN-DS5007. Everything works EXCEPT charging. It does not support the ipod 3G for charging. Since then, as I search for a replacement, I'm finding that few support the 3G. Can anyone advise me on a good quality docking-charging unit that supports charging the ipod 3G? I want good sound, don't care about radio or clock. I would prefer one that will run on batteries and AC. How much will I need to spend to get a good one? Thanks in advance.

Evening all,
I am having a little fun with some shell scripting but I am stuck creating a loop. Hopefully someone can help. Here is my script:
#!/bin/bash
FORTUNE=`fortune -i`
COUNT=`echo $FORTUNE | wc -m`
if [ $COUNT -lt 140 ]
