So there was this little thing called MacWorld today. Steve Jobs announced iTunes movie rentals, an updated Apple TV and the world’s thinnest notebook, the MacBook Air.

Weighing in at three pounds, the MacBook air is the best looking portable laptop I’ve ever seen. Despite its size, it retains the standard full keyboard and HD resolution. And an optional solid-state flash drive. And it’s less than one inch thick. And it’s three pounds.

A sub 100 gig hard-drive is an immediate turn-off, but it wouldn’t keep my from buying this laptop. The $1800 starting price, however…

If it has 60GB of space that is good for a small portable laptop. I don’t think this is for gamers so I do not see why you need over that.

Also it does not have a replaceable battery.

Time: What College Students Don’t Know October 14, 2009

I might just be too tired–it is, after all, 1:01 AM–but this struck me as a very good article, amidst my college application quest.

I’m famous now, part 3 October 3, 2009

Referencing this article, I’m going to quote my friend, Charles, because honestly, nothing else needs to be said. Story goes, the guy from Daily Herald came up to Stephen and me after I read the word, “Masturbation,” outloud from Evert’s little chastity book. We both laughed awkwardly, then he asked us what we thought. [...]

Picasa finally has faces! September 22, 2009

But not without flaws Silly Picasa version 3.5 with name tags, based on the same technology that powers name tags on Picasa Web Albums, that’s not a face!

Ubuntu Software Store–seriously? September 22, 2009

Good idea, guys! Let’s call a service that “lets you choose from thousands of free applications” a store. How brilliant. Here’s another idea, Canonical: maybe instead of calling Firefox the default web browser, you could call it the printer spooler? How about calling shut down solitaire? I want Linux to borrow Mac’s simplicity, […]

The Socialist-Free Purity Pledge September 21, 2009

Buzzwords. These catchy sayings, crafted to provoke an automatic response, cheapen conversation and stall progress. Just turn on the news and count how the number of accusations. Death panels, socialist, fascist, what? Even the left, calling the other guys racists. Let’s have a real debate about health care. Let’s talk substance. I don’t tr […]

Hometowns Aim, Monsters Vapours Swans September 18, 2009

Either I haven’t been paying attention or a crapload of cd’s just came out. I’ll admit, I haven’t had time to listen to all of these, but I wouldn’t doubt each make @imstephen’s Best 09 Albums of ‘09™. Download these. Buy these. Hear these. Hometowns by The Rural Alberta Advantage Aim and Ignite by fun. Monsters of F […]

What is morality, part II September 13, 2009

Phillip has answered my response about the fundamental nature of morality with an article titled “What is empiricism?” Since this may seem a tad out of context, I’d recommend you check the rest of this series. To recap: Phillip says skeptics who demand empirical evidence for gods while affirming the existence of morality are in [...]
