Is $107 a good price for Apple OSX v10.4 "Tiger"?
Are they going to come out with an even spiffier newer OS this summer/soon?
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

It lists for $129, so yes.

They'll be announcing the next version in June. It won't come out until late fall at the earliest.

I'm looking at this deal on a Western Digital 320GB Serial ATA hard drive: [link]
At the bottom, it says, IMPORTANT: Because of the time-limited error recovery feature, this product is intended for server applications and is not recommended for use in desktop systems.
Wazzat mean?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's not meant to play back multimedia?

Dunno.
I have a similar WD 320GB SATA drive in my home computer...
...and it works perfectly. I was thinking it might be the same drive, but it's not.

Maybe if I buy Tiger, I will be able to placate the part of my brain that keeps whispering to me that I could afford a new iBook.

I'm not sure what that means. I've also not used a WD drive in years. I had a series of them fail on me at one point and I jumped over to the Seagate Barracuda line and I've never looked back.

RE vs. SE? WTF?

It's not a Barracuda, but this Seagate is bigger with roughly the same cost per gig as the WD drive.

I have WD (and Maxtor and Seagate) at home and work and they have worked great. Actually, I haven't had a hard drive fail in a really long time. I have 2.5GB drives that still work but I just don't have a use for anymore.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I know there's freeware out there that will let you create a PDF from a Word doc. Is there anything that goes in reverse? Approximately three thousand of the source documents for my new project are PDFs, and my life would be a lot easier if they were editable.
