Yes, I know that some places (e.g. Texas), black people are provided with retarded attourneys who show up intoxicated in court - if showing up at all.
This is the first I've ever heard of this. Do you have a source? Usually the situation is that public defenders have too many cases.
You do realize there are plenty of other minorities who are not black right? They don't seem to be having the same problem. By your logic Asians, Indians, and even Jews should be having the same problems. But they're not. I have no bias in my OP, just cold hard facts. You choose to continue to sugarcoat the issue and be politically correct, but you're wrong.
The influx of Russians into parts of the U.S. is bringing more crime.

Have they done that for the Beatles?
Almost definitely.
I couldn't care less about any comparisons between The Beatles and Bach, but to suggest that people don't commit obsessive amounts of time and effort into analysing just about everything about them is one of the oddest things I've read for a while.

Ah, I didn't see that.
It's hardly very prominent, considering this is meant to be a, potentially, very dangerous problem.
Anyway, I can't be bothered to call Apple, I'll just wait and see how this all pans out.
Yeah, not very eye-catching. It's the same size as the copyright info. Looks like some more insignifcant legal disclaimer stuff.

I'm a student about to go to uni and have worked ALL summer holidays to save up for an imac, and now i hear they will be updating it! I'm still within my 14 day 'no questions asked' return period, but i will be out of that period on 12th september which its supposed to be released.
I was just wondering if anyone had past experiences with apple when going from PPC to intel- is there a 30-day period or something where if you brought a PPC imac, they would exchange it to the intel based imac as a good-will gesture.If they do then fantasti- no need for me to send it back and wait to see if the rumour comes true (and leave myself without a computer in the meantime)
I'm studing computer science and am a heavy user, so ANY speed increases are very welcome. bring on the coore 2 duos! I was a PC user since beginning of time (thats all my parents brough lol) but now ive gone to mac and osx, theres no looking back.
dont get me wrong, the imac is QUICK with 2GB RAM, but core 2 duo is faster....
any help would be really appreciated.

It's about time Wal-Mart gets burned to the ground.
I hope that this pisses off the studios royally. The sooner we shift to a purely electronic method of distribution, the better everything is.
There's no way that Wal-Mart would stop selling DVDs, and what else could they possibly do? Raise prices?
It's retarded. Wal-Mart won't lose any substantial sum of money if iTunes carries movies from all the major houses. But they will lose tons if they stop selling DVDs.
This just seems really foolish to me. They're not in a good position (for once). Granted, it could hurt the studios for a while, but people want to see movies more than they want to shop at Wal-Mart, methinks.

Has anyone considered that apple might not be realeasing the wide screen super secret video ipod because it dosn't exist?
lets all think for a second...
1) touch screens are weak, soft, and matte, not iPod at all
2) they get printy and scratched very easily
3) they would go through oodles of batter power
4) Apple would not make the thing bigger just to hold the extra battery
5) battery life would STINK
6) touch screen starts to complicate the interface, goes against apple's easy as pie rule
7) the thing would have to cost a fortune
Logic has no place on the internet ;)
But seriously that is a good post, it's similar to points others have brought up during the last few months.

Now here is one place where the superiority of the Zune comes through. Many, many words rhyme with "Zune", in contrast to the sadly rhyme-challenged "iPod". You can even have:
"I played a mellow tune
On my yellow Zune."
With iPod, you pretty much run out after "tripod".
---
Ha!
Ive an even better one:
"Id really go to town if I had a Zune t'was brown"
And we all know what brown reminds us of besides chocolate....

Target also has them in tomorrow's ad.
Not sure if anyone encountered issues, but I know our store receive five iPad 2s on Tuesday, and then got an internal e-mail on Thursday telling us that we will be receiving a case of five iPad 2s for the Sunday ad, and as such, to hold them until that time.
Yeah, we pretty much sold them that Tuesday. Thanks for the advance warning. :mad:
My apologies on behalf of Target if you kept running into stores that never had them in stock.

Well, I love iTunes 7
Fantastic
the get album art is SICK
the album scroll view is SICK
the gapless playback is well you get the idea!
I love it!
Just put it on my PC at work, and it's awesome
I'm a little concerned about putting it on my Mac at home because of the massive 140 gig library that it will have to process...
Hopefully it goes well,

Colors are fugly, as are the square ipod mini corners.
You would think the designer would take a trip to Tokyo once in awhile.
How about mocha chocolate, orange, or white.
Ipods used to be small status items. These look like sh**
I will take the new shuffle, at least it is small & I can hide it.

I'll make this point again... How is what Apple is doing any different than what Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony do with approvals for applications on their devices? If anything, Apple should be commended for giving everyone access to the development environment at a significantly reduced cost. The reason for the approval process is clear: they want to do QA before the product is released because if something bad happens, every news organization will feature headlines about it for a week.
I don't recall massive outcry from the devs on those other platforms. Why do you think that is?

I hope to never be caught reading a video game book:cool: That's not saying I have anything to be caught over though:D
Actually, I have to take that back. I read just about anything related to Formula 1, but that's different as it happens IRL:rolleyes:
Ok, I hate to admit that I do like the daily challenges in Reach. I still ***** loathe achievements though....

I just ordered the new 2TB Western Digital, it says it is for PC only, as it is formatted for NTSF, but it'll work on my MPB, right? Even if I have to re-format it?
Don't worry about the formatting, it's just a hard drive, they're all standard.
Since you said it was 2TB, that means it's not a 2.5" internal drive for a laptop, so it's either a 3.5" bare drive or a 3.5" inside an external case. If it's a 3.5" bare drive it will not fit in your MacBook, you need a 2.5 and I believe the biggest ones are 640GB @ 5400rpm. If it is an external, just plug it in, open /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility, select the new drive from the list on the left, select the "Erase" tab at the top, and "erase" it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)"

Alright we have quite a few postings that are merely mindless rage being evoked out of 2 word sentences. Here are my thoughts about this whole situation without starting a sentence with "F" and ending it with "!!!!!".....
-I think people will still want to have that physical DVD before abandoning it for digital files for some time. I now that it took me about a year and a half before I stopped buying CD's since the launch of the Music Store. Granted that was fueled mostly by the albums not being on iTunes, but now that is hardly the case.
-Are or are not the quality of the iTunes movies subpar compared to the actual DVD's? This I have not heard an actual fact based answer about yet.
-Ready to crucify me? You will after this statement. Wal-Mart is a major reason that this country has not seen a full blown inflation over the course of the last 10 years. Yes, the cost of some things has risen, but when you look across the board the actual rise has not been as bad as in the past. Wal-Mart's aggressive style of pricing, while hurting manufacturers in some cases, has helped keep prices in check with other stores. Think about it, why would you go over to the chain grocery store to buy a 2 liter of Pepsi for $1.50 when you can get it for $1.00 at Wal-Mart? I have seen more and more sales at grocery stores that are matching Wal-Mart's everyday prices. That is good for my household.
Yes I know that Wal-Mart's use of labor is not the model of wholesome remotely, but the people that work at Wal-Mart are not necessarily the ones that would be lawyers, doctors or managers anyways. Society needs people to do jobs that everyone doesn't want to do. Does someone grow up saying that they WANT to be a janitor at McDonalds? Using that philosophy, does anyone grow up wanting to be that cashier at Wal-Mart? Probably not, but someone has to do it. And unfortunately, there are a lot of bad or not so nice things that come with those jobs. I personally would love to be a Wal-Mart greeter in Florida when I retire.
-I don't buy Music or Movies at Wal-Mart because of their censorship program that they have had in place for many years. I don't know if they still have it, but I remember that Wal-Mart actually made of the CD vendors make a "clean" version of the latest album because they did not want to sell it with explicit lyrics on it a few years back. No no no no.... I have enough people out there from senators to mothers groups making it harder for me to get the unedited music, movies and video games in life that I want. I don't need the store making that choice for me also.
I don't think Wal-Mart would actually pull a stunt like this with Hollywood and Apple, but if they did start throwing punches I would be very happy to go over to the competition over at Super Target. But that would then start another argument about Target's employee practices.... ;)

My mom got her iphone last year. She loves it so much she's been totally into apple stuff (bought herself an ipod touch when it came out - don't ask me when she already has an iphone - and even bought me the new nano).
She says she's probably going to buy a Mac next time (and she used to snub the mac when I was a kid).
Similar experience for me. I had owned Macs since 1991, but switched to a PC in 2003. After getting the iPhone 4 last summer, I was convinced to come "back to the Mac." In February, I replaced my Dell laptop with a new MBP. I'll never go back.
