Have a look at Brew Dog (http://www.brewdog.com). One of their beers, Tactical Nuclear Penguin comes in at 32% ABV. Very expensive to buy. Nothing more than a publicity stunt, really. They release a beer, put something controversial on the label, questions get asked in Parliament and bingo!, loads of free publicity and street cred.
Rather have a nice bottle of single malt meself.:p
Oh, just had a look at their site and they've had to release a 41% ABV entitled "Sink The Bismark" in order to combat a 40 percenter from Germany.
Brewdog brewery is literally 20 mins from where i live, and the stuff is vile. another thing US bud is not a beer, its a lager-beer. and no i don't know the difrence and frankly i don't care. I prefer tenents, or Cobra lagers, or, scratch the last 2, make mine an orkney, Dark Island real ale, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yum

hasn't every new OS be revolutionary?Not in my opinion. I think each OS release has been evolutionary, but not revolutionary.

Anyone bought the 11" Air even though they knew the 13" may of been a better choice and far as productivity and spec's are concerned?
I had both, I choose the 13" MBA for 'practical reasons' ... I'm on my computer a LOT, a larger screen typically means more productivity, more power can come in handy, as can the larger HD and SD slot .... and the 13" isn't really that much less portable than the 11".
Decision made, right? Wrong.
I really miss the 11. What is it that is so damn compelling? For me it's not the price difference ... it's just that perfect size I guess ... so super easy to grab and go, do work on, it just works and is inviting to use, perhaps the most inviting notebook I've ever used.
Anyone else feel the same way or have the same experience?
If so what size did you end up with and why?

They recently changed their website menu bar to Liquid Metal Black:
http://images.apple.com/global/nav/images/globalsearch_bg.png
What makes you think Liquid metal is black anyhow ? It's no blacker than aluminium which can be anodized black or Carbon fiber which can be painted a light shade of grey.
Seriously folks, that black macbook concept art could be made out of anything, as much as their "dark" look can represent any material on their site. It has nothing to do with supposed Liquid Metal or Carbon Fiber or Aluminum.

So the answer, in your mind, is to take the poor example of another country in order to justify the same behavior in your own? ... the lure of oppression can sometimes be a siren song that lures the weak to its attractive melody.
You got owned, citizenzen, and there's no rhetorical question, or ad hominem attack, or sidestep you can take to get out from under it.
This all started when you huffed the following challenge:
:rolleyes: Show me the laws that force a dress code on foreign visitors.
Mac'nCheese accepted your challenge:
You mean when female troops from other countries are "encouraged" to cover up while serving in Muslim countries?
You then chose to ratchet up The Needless Condescension Meter vis-a-vis a red herring debate on the difference between the terms "encourage" and "outlaw":
Sorry that subtle difference is lost on you. Maybe a definition might help ...Maybe it's just me ... and the dictionary ... but those two words don't seem to mean the same thing at all. :rolleyes:
Mac'nCheese then called you on asserting he had assimilated "encourage" and "outlaw." So, you again ratchet the snark and "ask":
So what point were you failing to make?

Probably only a matter of time before we hear Steve has locked himself in a tower and is peeing in mason jars.
(Howard Hughes reference, for you youngsters)
The Apple Board of Directors needs to put a leash on him and get someone with a cool head to officially respond to this. After "all phones do that" and his "facts" on Flash letter, I trust SJ as much as I trust a Congressman.

I'll still use the mac pro so that would be 5 systems.
Heat is a problem for me too so the overclocking will have to wait a while and a new build will have to wait a couple of months.
oh ok. yeah 5 systems is quite a bit. i think for right now 4 is my limit. so for me to get anything else, i'd have to sell something. but we'll see. i'd love to build a 6 or 12 core system

My Thoughts...
Some of you people here seriously need to **** and chill.
Justin's portrayal of the Mac platform is immeasurably more dignified than Benjamin Curtis' portrayal of Dell hardware. And while I happen to believe that anytime someone communicates in public they have an intrinsic responsibility to do so in a way which casts themselves in the best possible light, I'm certainly not going to rip him to shreds, mostly because of the public perception of the function of blogs.
Moreover, I have never given any thought to the subject of whether he had his own web site or not (many celebrities do). I haven't visited it myself, and therefore am totally unaware of it's content. But I do thank you folks for your attempts at bludgeoning me and trying to drive spikes into my skull over the content there.
Regarding Justin's Mac character being arrogant...
Justin's portrayal is usually pretty neutral and flat with respect to those qualities. He's simply reporting accurate information. Do you think your dictionary is arrogant because it has the exact definition for every word you ever find in it? Is your copy of iTunes arrogant because it has all the precise info on all of your favorite music, including numbers of times played, frequency of playback, etc?
Mac OS X doesn't have any viruses in the wild for it. Mac OS X has no spyware. Mac OS X as a platform is somewhat less severely impacted by pop-up web browser windows, and due to it's design is completely un-impacted by pop-ups not directly related to specifically-viewed web pages. Being a BSD variant and therefore drawing upon the many strengths of F/OSS development community, it is a better-engineered OS. These are not opinions; they are facts. They are demonstrable and quantifiable. The fact that Justin's character states them (which he definitely does do) is nothing more than an accurate representation of our present reality.
Regarding the reference to holidays; and of their general celebration...
Why don't you atheists and non-Christian followers grow a pair already? You want us to respect the fact that you walk the Earth, too, and don't share our religious beliefs, so how about you do the same, ok? And for the record, this country was founded by white, anglo-saxon men who were all of some Christian faith. It wasn't founded by pagans, or Muslims, or Taoists or Shintoists or Buddhists or Atheists or anyone else. It was "God-fearing" Christian men who thought it best to write a document (the Constitution) wherein the rights of each individual person to believe as they wished should not be abrogated by the Government. However, we're referring to society here, not the U.S. Government.
December 25th is Christmas. It has been for hundreds of years, and it continues to be so to this day. Kwanza is a made-up, essentially non-religious holiday for hyphenated Americans who's distant ancestors were from Africa. Chanukkah is a Hebrew holiday, and in fact there are also other Jewish-specific holidays earlier in the year. And even though I don't specifically celebrate them, I will respect them out of respect for those of my fellow human beings who do.
And considering where we are, we really should celebrate January 24th, as it is the day the Mac was released in 1984. You know, I'm going to mark that one down on my calendar and celebrate it. Would anyone here like to propose some suggestions on how that observance (one which is culturally and technologically significant, btw) might be held or handled? I'm serious about this, and am open to any positive, constructive suggestions from anyone without regard to age, race, gender, national origin, or religion. Terrorists and other agents of chaos are, of course, excluded.
