My suggestion to you is in the form of a book (not for motivation, but for information). It was just released a few days ago and I think it will be the most successful book of its kind (personal development). It's called Personal Development for Smart People by Steve Pavlina. I've gone...

They screwed up with it. Apparently Apple is the only company who still understands the importance of simplicity. Almost seems like they cutoff extra screen size to fit the ugly logo on the front.

I agree with you for the most part. I know there will be a day where people will get tired of having 'media'. Can't predict the future, but I believe cell phones will become the standard for portable media and a media center for the house that stores all music/movies/games/pictures on a...

Did you bother putting a second thought into what you just posted? [/b] but it is a hollow one... because he argues it will tank? What? 1. Who cares if they don't fall enough? They are left as the only HD provider... and if you haven't noticed, it will be the new format for the next 6-8+ years...
