Dear XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX, We would like to thank you for your recent order:XXXXXXXX, for the Seagate Backup Drive. We regret to inform you that we had received erroneous ETA information and the 4TB drive won't actually be available from the manufacturer until the end of the year.

Please click this link to review this item Seagate S130-8704 which we can offer you for $119.99. If you accept the offer and would like us to substitute the original 4TB drive for the 3TB drive above, please click the "Send The Replacement" link below, and we’ll promptly modify your order and ship it as soon as we receive the inventory. We apologize for not being able to provide the exact item you ordered and hope you are satisfied with this proposed substitute. We hope you don’t, but should you choose to cancel your order altogether please click the “Cancel My Order" link below. Please advise us of your decision at your earliest convenience.

happy birthday!

7 years old computers not supporting the new shiny isn't exactly planned obselecense, it's legitimate "sorry dude, it's too fucking old". One of the reasons apple is able to progress the way they do is they don't support their older hardware forever. That way they can take advantage of new ways of doing things, and don't bloat the OS with a ton of crap no one needs. Your old computers still work, you just can't run the latest OS on them. Big deal...And the reason the 3GS is still supported is that the 3GS is still being sold.

It had been a lot longer for me, but I bought one too. The address they had for me was from 10+ years ago

FireWire is still an audio standard, several companies still make FireWire devices, even new this year.

No that's the problem with lawyers. They either fuck you or buy you a drink but not both.

I'm generally of the opinion most teens shouldn't vote. Of course, I think most PEOPLE shouldn't vote, because they don't understand the issues.

not the wrong sport, just not in canada... :b I'm glad they won, tho I was wanting them to win it in 4 so they could get the record. Hopefully teams can go back to playing offensive hockey again.

oates for me too

I'm so glad NJ lost. The old marty woulda won that

That's forever from now

Resolution independence is there in lion, it's just hidden. The air display app for the ipad enables it so that you can use the ipad as a resolution independent second display. I'd be willing to bet the new macbook ships with it turned on too.

same as in the macbook air. Lets you use the mic on your iphone headset. Can be set to "line out". The imac is pretty fucking stellar.

The mac pro is what the mac pro is. They get the chips intel releases, and otherwise it just is.

I doubt it

I have a monopod I haven't used in ages. The nex just doesn't ever seem to need it. I'll stick it in the mail.

you uncooked crabcakes into softshells?

Joined the Philly Hash House Harriers for a beer mile. I'm now the owner of the "chug cape". I didn't come in last, and I can drink a beer faster than anyone, so all things considered, it was a good night. I'll rejoin them next month I think.

Why not just normalize it to whatever you think is appropriate?

As someone who does an awful lot of interviews, I don't see the value in you having a briefcase
