"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

FYI...dealnews.com has some info about some price reductions on Ipod shuffles. I can't remember if someone was looking for one here, but just in case.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So, now that I'm finally ready to pull the trigger on my powerbook purchase -- I should wait until after the 15th?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

At some point, Apple should make an announcement that new systems purchased after a certain date will be able to upgrade to Tiger for free.

Trust my rage

Unless you really want it now. A few times they have offered the newer software at a reduced price to people who bought new computers in the last 2 months, say, but don't fall in the shorter window. If you are in no rush, I'd wait for Tom's announcement.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I wish it wasn't Comcast, but better that than no TiVo.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I just hope TiVo will still work for non-Comcast subscribers.

If I only had a brain...

Note to self: Don't go underground in Boston.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just hope TiVo will still work for non-Comcast subscribers.

Yeah, Comcast and Time Warner are always beefing here, taking channels of TW's lineup and stuff. I'd be concerned if I had Time Warner Cable and a TiVo. Especially because TWC has their own DVR dealie.
