Given the length of the original message and the terseness of Jobs' reply, it suggests that either he doesn't give a crap, or the iPad's virtual keyboard is a bit pants to type on.
Or he was in the middle of a game of angry birds and decided to just send a quick reply so he could try and finish the level which he can't get 3 stars on

Really nice that a big community like this aid to the cause... My grandpa died a few years ago but he had internal bleedings (stomach) for 9 years, blood was always ready for him... as our blood (mine and 3 brothers, plus little less that a hundred of cousins) ready for the ones in need. I donate 3 times a year... 1 month before the donation I stop smoking and drinking in memory of my beloved old man. Thanks to all of the people willing to donate in name of the ones in need, thanks.

Get a $100 inkjet cd/dvd printer. I use the Epson R320 (has a few more bells and whistles). You can Google images and print just about any kind of image on your discs. They look GREAT!
Generic ink is about $15 for a complete set! Doesn't look the best for photos but works fine for labels.
Thanks for the tips. Still, Lightscribe or Labelflash or equivalent would be a nice feature, especially in a notebook computer. If you're out and about with your notebook and you want to burn a disc, it'd be convenient to be able to just burn a few words on to the disc rather than bothering with printers, inks, labels, markers, etc.

12 PB doesn't sound like a lot for iTunes in the cloud. I mean if that's 12 million GB's that would only store about ~500,000 people with the amount of music I have. My libraries at 24GB and growing, but I know people with multiple 100 GB libraries.
And even if it's just a small 1 GB library, 12 PB would only cover 12 million people with libraries of that size, which again is small considering the sheer amount of people using iTunes/iPods/iPhones.

it crashes regularly, even on macrumors or on the apple site!
just make it work!
No it doesn't. Seriously, I've visited this site zillions of times and Safari has never crashed on it.
As for resizable text areas, it's a good idea in theory. Too many "web designers" think they are designing for print...the user is supposed to have control over how things look. That's one of the whole points of the web; everything should be as relative as possible.

dang, totally forgot about that. i've even linked that before. very useful thread! (click the link in his signature)
...The Geforce 6200 I have doesn't work in MDD's for some odd reason but does work in all other AGP G4 towers.
didn't know that. i've use some 6200s before, but have never owned/used a MDD... wonder why it won't work? did you tape the pins, tried all the other tricks? voltage problem perhaps?!? learn something new every day around here. long live PPC!

It's all perspective. The biceps are closer to the camera than the hands. This is why, when taking pictures of fish, you always extend your arms toward the camera.

I emailed firmtek and asked them what firmware would best suit you.
Their reply:
"Dear Jeff,
When using two FirmTek cards in the same computer, both cards need to have the same
firmware version. In this case, both cards should have 513 installed on them."
I am thinking that the issue could be that they have different firmware. Once you get it starting install the cards one at a time and change the firmware to 5.1.3 if not already that. I am guessing they both have 5.3 on them which is newer but more unstable.
5.1.3 for the 2 port card (http://www.firmtek.com/download/SeriTek1S2_513.zip) and 5.1.3 for the 4 port (http://www.firmtek.com/download/SeriTek1V4_5.3.1.zip)

As a lesbian, I take this passage to mean that having sex with a man is detestable. So, what you're saying is that you find it detestable for a woman to have sex with a man? Lesbians everywhere thank you for your support.
No straight man in their right mind would find lesbian sex detestable...

I am saying that the present UK tariff of 16 years minimum provides adequate protection for the public, and is not an attractive alternative to liberty.
I agree, as I said a family member works for the Probation Service and I am studying law now and it has completely changed my perspective of crime/criminals.
It is such a shame that the media/tabloids still thinks all criminals are inherently evil and spreads rubbish and incorrect headlines like "Europe says rapists must have vote" (prisoners votes recently).
Anyway, life sentance guidlines were reviewed in 2003 and they are currently as follows-
Whole life - two or more people killed and-
a substantial degree of premeditation or planning,
the abduction of the victim, or
sexual or sadistic conduct,
the murder of a child if involving the abduction of the child or sexual or sadistic motivation,
a murder done for the purpose of advancing a political, religious or ideological cause, or
a murder by an offender previously convicted of murder
30 year minimum - where the offence involves-
the murder of a police officer or prison officer in the course of his duty,
a murder involving the use of a firearm or explosive,
a murder done for gain (in furtherance of robbery or burglary...),
a murder intended to obstruct or interfere with the course of justice,
a murder involving sexual or sadistic conduct,
the murder of two or more persons,
a murder that is racially or religiously aggravated or aggravated by sexual orientation, or
15 year minimum - applies to any murder not covered by another category
12 year minimum - applies to any murder committed by someone under the age of 18 (EDITED)
These are guidelines, but Judges must justify deviating from them.
Remember, these are minimum terms, all murders get a life sentence. It doesn't mean people will be released after the minimum term. As I said above, most murders in the UK did not intend to kill someone, that is not necessary for conviction here, only intent to cause GBH.
I'm very happy with UK sentencing. Good balance between punishment and public protection. The homicide rate in the UK is very low!

there are certain cases where the death penalty should be applied... There's just no reason for some people to be alive after what they've done.
No, you are mistaken. What you are talking about here is called "retribution", which is not what justice is supposed to be about. There is more evidence to suggest that the death penalty makes things worse for everyone than when it is not employed. One major example of this might be Canada, which has quite a lot of guns, no capital punishment, and is generally a safer place to be (though I cannot vouch for iJohnHenry's neighborhood ;)).

So whats your opinion, personally i think it was to focused on the iphone...
I hate these keynotes with a passion and always wish someone would napalm all the smug brainwashed idiots in the audience constantly applauding Steve "Hitler" Jobs like he was deity... ooh look a button, this calls for a standing ovation... creepy freaks. But enough about me.
I thought it was pretty underwhelming. Even though the iPhone appears to be a very cool and well designed gadget, the battery solution blows (short life + non-swappable) and 4/8 GB is a joke. Initially it seemed everyone was drooling all over the screens, but after the excitement had settled down I guess it wasn't so hot after all. For some reason it gave me flashbacks to that Keynote where he showed that god awful Motorola ROKR phone with built-in iTunes, with all these old geezer CEOs from various third parties making awkward fish-out-of-water appearances and stuttering their way through written notes... but yeah, I guess people who were looking forward to Leopard would feel kind of miffed. Myself I don't get very excited over point releases, call me when they have OS11 ready.

No, it's just principle. Some people just need to be "removed" from the world. It's as simple as that. Like if you rape a baby for example, i think you pretty much just stripped yourself of your right to be alive. Euthanize them like a dog, why not? And also, you don't know if some judge 50 years in the future will release them for good behavior and so they can "die in peace".
And what about the person who is accused of raping a baby and is later exonerated? If they are executed then the state has murdered an innocent person, but if they have life in prison then you can make it right. And locking them up in prison for life does remove them from the world as they are never getting out.

Domino, on the other hand, is pure garbage. I remember working in a 20 person company back in '00 where we had a Domino server running on a dual 500MHz PIII server with 2 gigs of RAM - very expensive at the time. It was very hard on the poor machine. It was choking. And the only three things the server was used for were email, very basic scheduling, and a billable hour tracking app. Not that that server is any speed demon by modern standards... But a non-Domino system having the same functionality would not have created any measurable load on the server at all with only 20 users. Did I also mention the server was less than stable? And I still remember how SP6 for NT completely brought the damn thing down... Ouch.
Well, the company where I have work has 30,000 email users and it runs perfectly on a 8 Core AIX Power5 machine, so I'm not sure how a dual p3 couldn't handle 20 users unless it was very poorly configured.

When oh when are they going to update that insanely arcane iCal "feature" on .Mac. Why isn't it easy to access my calendars from my .Mac homepage? And WHY can't I ADD an event from .Mac. So frustrating.
And can we please for the love of God get a .Mac site optimized for mobile?
Now THAT would be a great addition. Fully editable iCal web interface with the new webmail interface would make .mac a lot better.
The only things missing then would be 2GB storage and a FASTER iDisk.
