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

Sean, were you looking for a laptop cooler stand? How about this? I mean, filled with cold water it should work.

Snerk. My computer is *water cooled*.

Nah. Actually, I just got a new desk, and the laptop has been running quite cool since I started using it. It's just laminated particle board, but blonde instead of dark, as my old desk was. That plus some design differences, and my laptop has been running ten degrees F cooler of late. Good enough for me.

I need to download flash for the iPhone. Do I want it for powerpc macs or intel based macs?

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

There is no flash for the iPhone.

With the release of the iPhone developers kit, Macromedia has said they will make an iPhone friendly version of Flash.

Hacking the 512k Mac: [link]

This is a Macintosh 512k which I upgraded to run OS X by replacing the innards with a modern Mac Mini and various supporting components, including a grayscale CRT monitor, an LS-120 floppy disk drive, and a microcontroller-based USB device that interfaces the Mini to the original keyboard and mouse.

Has anyone here done Ruby on Rails development? Did it live up to the hype?
