Are we sure about the existing RAM issues (as opposed to future-proofing)? Am considering the rMBP, but the only way I could pull it off would be to use work given Amazon GCs, thus eliminating the possibility of RAM customization through Apple (and the upper model is too expensive). Course there are a ton of pixels, but 8GB seems like a bunch of RAM for non-video editing/CAD operations. Hard for me to believe Apple would handicap their flagship laptop from the start. Edit: Now that I look at the upper model its base is 8GB too.

Thanks.

Faxing your way.

Or maybe not... "Apple Inc. held discussions with Twitter Inc. more than a year ago about taking a strategic investment in the short-messaging service, according to a person familiar with the talks. People familiar with the matter said there are no current formal investment or acquisition discussions between the companies.' http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390443343704577553953443264394.html?mod=rss_Technology

NYTimes has a great obit. Speaking to reporters before the first shuttle flight, Dr. Ride — chosen in part because she was known for keeping her cool under stress — politely endured a barrage of questions focused on her sex: Would spaceflight affect her reproductive organs? Did she plan to have children? Would she wear a bra or makeup in space? Did she cry on the job? How would she deal with menstruation in space? The CBS News reporter Diane Sawyer asked her to demonstrate a newly installed privacy curtain around the shuttle’s toilet. On “The Tonight Show,” Johnny Carson joked that the shuttle flight would be delayed because Dr. Ride had to find a purse to match her shoes. At a NASA news conference, Dr. Ride said: “It’s too bad this is such a big deal. It’s too bad our society isn’t further along.”
