Heh. Noticed when I went to Vividcon last year that vidding fan girls squee over cute little notebook computers just like they were babies. These women (and a few men) are the exact Venn diagram intersection of computer savvy and "feminine" aesthetics.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm mad because we bought a computer with Vista on it at Best Buy and they told us that it came with a free upgrade to Windows 7. When Windows 7 became available we called Best Buy and they told us the software was free but we had to pay to have someone from the geek squad come out and istall it. I don't hate Vista that much.

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

Ooh. That ain't right.
Is there a term for that? Sorta' like "bait-and-switch"?

7th Guest is coming to iOS. Cool. Not enough for me to justify buying an iPod Touch, but cool nonetheless.

Is gmail screwing up for everyone today, or is it just our craptastic internet?

I can't find anything wrong with Gmail.
edit: at the moment.

I'm towards the end of uploading 15,000 emails onto gmail ( I never delete an email unless it is spam or virus ridden or something.) While I do back up my computer, I decided it is time to get as much stuff backed up to a separate location. Since my critical files word,pdf, excel ect. files plus bookmarks, application setting and so on I'm considering paying the $55 per year for carbonite. My backup needs seem exactly what carbonite is built to handle, not a ton of data total, no really large files, total megabytes of incremental changes per day very small, so once backup is in place should have no problem keeping it updated.

I'm having difficulties getting into gmail via Chrome on my laptop - when I try I get this message:
This webpage has a redirect loop.
The webpage at [link] has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.
I've tried clearing cookies and then allowing cookies and neither worked. Meanwhile, I can get to gmail via Firefox or IE. What's up with that?
