Is there any way FB could get the tiniest extra peek into their competitors' backyard by not limiting Instagram's posting functionality to just them? I guess it depends on many things, including how many rights they ask for when you install it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Erin, ask her if she wants/needs an optical drive. If not, a MacBook Air might be the way to go.
I forget--are there rumors some MacBook Pro models will go optical-less?

Apple is believed to be releasing a slimmer 15" MacBook Pro sans optical drive on or around April 29, while a slimmed-down 13" model will come around June 3. The 17" MacBook Pro may not be updated until later in the year.
