Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

What's the "HP" iPod. Is it different from the regular Apple iPod?

Hey. New board.

I think it's blue. Or something. So, a bit uglier, but otherwise the same thing. I think. Maybe.

t /completely unhelpful

ETA: Hmm. The iPods on the HP webpage don't look blue. Maybe that part fell through, and their just the same thing.

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

Nah, it's not blue.

Hey. New board.

Ha! X-edit/correction

Hey. New board.

Apparently, the only real difference (besides the HP logo on the back) is that Applecare is unavailable for the HP one.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I thought I'd ask here before venturing too far into the scary world of the rest of the internet.

I just got Age of Empires 2 for my Mac. Does anyone know a way to pop out of the game (like, for an IM) without exiting it (i.e.-minimize the window)?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Oddly I can't get there without adding www. to the address.

It might be a part of the propagating lag.

Wolfram,

if you want to get a bit fancy, you can put an excel table in a Word document and when you open the Word document it will check with Excel to see if you have updated said document.

I found this feature very cool, but I only have used it once.
