jstevewhite These sorts of discussions always bring a lot of misconceptions out of the woodwork. Apples are now running Intel processors and generally off-the-shelf hardware. Their big advantage is that Apple knows exactly what hardware will ship with their OSX, and they...

jstevewhite I've bought several refurbished apple products from their website. They all come with the same standard warranty as a 'new' part, and I've had no problem with them at all. I bought a Mac mini, an iPod mini, and a 30gb iPod from their refurbished store. I say...

jstevewhite I've got a few Apple computers, including a Macbook Air. I really like them, and OSX is the best general purpose operating system I've ever used. I'm a systems engineer, and I support Unix systems and routers and firewalls and the like, and the fact that OSX...

jstevewhite Heh - I'm an old fart when it comes to computers. I started back when "building your own computer" meant you had to own a soldering iron and wire wrap tool. My dad and I built a computer based on the 8080a intel chip that used toggle switches to control...

jstevewhite Run like crazy. If he's with you and making these confessions, he's playing games. You shouldn't allow him to manipulate you with past relationships. It's possible I'm overstating the case, but I will give you this bit of advice as a man who's heard his...

This makes me so MAD!

wooitsmolly @wooitsmolly (3613) • United States 7 May 08

Do you ever start having a discussion with someone only to realize that they have already discounted anything you are going to say? I hate this. I hate when someone is too stubborn to acknowledge other viewpoints. I am not saying...

jstevewhite Wow, it's hard to take that kind of response, I know, but honestly I've been on both sides of that fence. I'm a computer guy (a systems engineer) by trade, and sometimes when I get into discussions with people about technology, they can say things that clearly...
