  1. Since music lyrics are open to anyone's interpretation, I'd imagine 'McCain-Palin tradition' to mean something about conservative tradition, as opposed to the history of the partnership. No other take on it makes a lick of sense to me.
  2. I anticipate great pains in my wallet area this fall.
  3. I guess the MB Air keyboard is the new style here. I typed on one in Best Buy a few months ago and thought it felt great.
  4. I was looking at this earlier. Some items worth noting: 1) You cant buy an empty case and put your own drives in it (afaik) This is sort of like buying a ram upgrade from apple; everyone knows they can get the ram cheaper elsewhere. 2) The largest possible array is 7.5TB. Drobo 2.0 offers the capability of 16TB per unit (even though there are no 4TB drives yet). As hard drive sizes increase, this unit is still locked at 7.5TB, unless I've missed something. Also, with a Drobo you can mix drive sizes and models. 3) Its Lacie. Technically this offers more immediate storage potential than a Drobo if you get the 7.5TB version, but that assumes you are not mirroring the data. If you dont need true RAID, I'd go with a Drobo personally. /shilling.
  5. Just had my top two wisdom teeth extracted. I had nitrous and novacane. After having the mask on for a few minutes, a staff member came back in the room and asked if I was feeling "floaty". I told her I couldnt tell; I felt perfectly lucid/sober. A few minutes later another lady asked me how school was going, and I said its good (despite graduating in December 2005). Hearing her laugh, I realized that the nitrous was apparently working

  7. There are little tangents, like Headphone Journey. "Incredible tones and textures for spacing out, as well as recordings that reward particularly close listening." Seems to have a good variety of material.
  8. doh
  9. Hitachi Deskstar 1 Terrabyte HD = $89 after MIR
  10. I always thought my Guns N Roses Use Your Illusion II tape sounded very good. Of course I was using a cheap walkman and sony earbuds/headphones at the time.
  11. The Big Lebowski and Iron Man in the iTunes movie store. I've never bothered to buy movies through iTunes before, and I don't really know why. The selection has gotten huge since the last time I looked.
  12. Spreading the love, one pico at a time Thanks morphsci
  13. People are just obsessed with rick rolling these days.
  14. because I require food energy to function. not batteries. Failing that, Mountain Dew.
  15. I was browsing last night. Most of the high-rez store is jazz based There was a Clark Terry album, some flamenco stuff, modern jazz and 2 KINKS records. Since I'm USB-based, I havent jumped at it yet myself.
  16. Good lucksies
