  1. Not seeing the link on the front page, Mr. Benchmark, sir...and here's the YouTube:
  2. The trick is to tweak it, like turning FastFind and other background processes off and such.
  3. Why would you bring up "need"? This has nothing to do with "need", this has to do with "want". Did they "need" higher resolution for the iPhone? No-one was complaining, and yet they still went higher. And not just a little bit higher, a lot bit higher. Did they "need" to do that? No, they did not. It's all about the bottom line, and there was no risk involved in that one. They found a way to cram higher res at similar cost, so it was more appealing to people like me ("greedy"), and not less appealing who would get thrown by the increased price.

  5. Throw the circuit breaker if all turned on at once?
  6. (Emphasis mine -- Ed.) I agree with this. Even though I, myself, would prefer a 7" higher resolution iPad, I do realize that the large majority of the target market will prefer the larger screen, but I don't believe it will have the same pixel density as the current iPhone 4 aka the retina screen. He also said there would never ever be Flash on the iOS. I, for one, would not hold him to his word on that one (two...three...whatever...n+1...). You're welcome to try, but historically, his ability to anticipate what the market will bear borders on prescience, and he will change with the nimbleness of a cleat-footed ninja in a log-rolling contest, if it will generate revenue. EDIT: I'll even go one further -- the largest "risk" in my "prediction" is that he can't make a 10" retina display. If he can, then there won't be two, there will only be the one big ten inch. So, to reiterate, my prediction is that there will be two -- a "sport" (7", retina display, possibly iPhone 4 high res, maybe a little less), and an LX (10" display, incrementally higher res than first generation iPad, but not as high a jump as was the iPhone 3 to the iPhone 4). And this is only for the second gen. Beyond that, all bets are off.
  7. From this tutorial.
  8. It has to, if they incorporate the retina display, there's no way they can do a retina display that big. EDIT: You beat me to it. I was responding to your prior post, and grawk's response. EDIT #2: That said, a 7" screen with more real estate (should still be moar pixels) is very appealing to me.
  9. You know there's one on Goldbox right now? Amazon.com Gold Box: New Deals. Every Day.
  10. Leaves' Eyes: YouTube - Leaves' Eyes - Nine Wave Maidens Krypteria:
  11. Play in private -- it's safe for work...visually, but not aurally. Also, you may be laughing.
  12. (nods in dawning understanding)
  13. That makes too much sense.
  14. Oh, that kind of subway, I thought he meant the sandwich shop. I didn't thinking chewing and JH16's go well together, though I will admit to having no experience in the area.
  15. A is obviously alarm, but what synonym for "shut off" or "shunt" (as I know it) starts with F or P? Similarly "Self Destruct"? Oh, wait a minute, P is probably Private (outside alarms on, internal motion detectors off). So F must be for Final Solution (aka Self Destruct).
  16. JH16's & JH3A would have been simultaneously cheaper and more addictive.
  17. They don't beam?
  18. I checked your math. Nice.
  19. Orbs, Asleep Next to Science -- hits me where I live. Recommended if you like Mars Volta, Coheed & Cambria.
  20. Papers and precedent. I'm in. At some point.
  21. That is a very nice looking bag.
  22. It probably can't handle the bitrate. Anyone know the specs of the Northstar?
  23. Dude, you are so optimistic it makes me cry. You know that's exactly where she's going -- this is white collar crime, not anything violent.
