Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Have you guys talked about the Blackberry Storm here yet? Any thoughts or experiences?

My old work-supplied Treo 680 is getting pretty beat-up, and I can switch to any of the BBs or maybe hold out for an iPhone, if it ever gets approved for my work. Is the Storm close enough?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

still no firewire port on the MacBook. Really sad they did away with that.

Crap. No Mac Mini.

Are they discontinuing them?

The Blackberry Storm is seductive to me, but I don't have any applicable experience with it.

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

Are they discontinuing them?

No. It's just that they haven't updated the hardware in 1½ years. I want to buy one to hook up to my TV, but I can't justify paying that much for such an underpowered system.

I'm seriously considering buying a Dell and running windows.

Some small part of me just died.

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

And, just like that, Scola goes to the Dark Side.

Well, the Dark Side is rather pretty....

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So, why does Apple think it is a good concept to have a non-removable battery? Does anyone have information about this?

It kind of drives me crazy in the ipod and I think it is a BAD IDEA for the laptop. Carrying around an extra battery for my MacBook Pro has saved my bacon any number of times.
