@solo said: looks cool. Just remember, wait for version 2 before buying. this has been soooo true for the ipod touch! 2nd generation is way better. Clearly i got my 1st generation a month beflore the upgrade, bummer P.S.: that laptop design is very very cool

BTM said @unknownuser said: A change in perspective makes all the difference. Imagine they were chickens instead of cats... would you have the same reaction? Probably still negative, but maybe not as much. As I said, I don't have any issues with what particular meat people eat, it's not even on my radar. But that level of cruelty is unnecessary. Even if I ate meat I would still hold this view. And yes I do extend that opinion to chickens. The images on that website cannot be compared to even the worse cases of farming.

Hi Eugenio, You are in luck! I actually visited my local Apple Centre today (http://www.compub.ie) and had a look at the new 17" MacBook Pro. I then got them to download Google SketchUp and I tried out the trackpad for a few minutes. I had no trouble getting the zoom function to work by spreading / closing two fingers on the trackpad. I did not have time to go into the trackpad setup in order to make the orbit to function in the trackpad but I imagine it should be possible. I was looking for the 'button' on the trackpad then realised that I had to press the actual trackpad! Its a nice piece of kit Mike

Dale, great one. @unknownuser said: Good points Jackson. However I would happily pay a proctor or go take a test in a room where I’m watched while taking the test. The proctor (person) doesn’t lock my computer as if I’m going to cheat!

@unknownuser said: @gaieus said: As a comparison, 1 Hungarian forint at the moment is about $ 240. it is not the other way round - 240 HUF is $1 ? Hah! I must've been dreaming...

Thanks, considering it is partially a joke .

Well I don't just have one question, so on the long run I think I would be better of on a forum based on creating websites, but it couldn't hurt to ask one: Why should I use CSS for the layout of my website? I'm using it already for the 'looks', but I'm still using tables for layout. Mainly because it is pretty easy working with tables in dreamweaver. [in 'design' mode, not in code. In code it really sucks sometimes ] Example: REMOVED [working directory, real site is somewhere else ] And I know the first thing you'll find typing 'tables, html' in google is that you shouldn't use it because CSS is better, but I simply don't get it [not even after 15 minutes of googling for it ] So, if someone would be kind enough to shine a light on this subject and/or could tell me why and how to [easily ] use CSS for the layout of my website I would be thankful! Ps. could we start a thread in the corner bar on how irritating IE7 [or IE6 for that matter] is when you are creating a website. I mean, come on! What takes me 2 days to get right in FF takes me more than a week to get working in IE Pps. I was joking about that tread, but it is still irritating

i think something much scarier is that you don't have to take an IQ test to run the country! (BUSH) I'd like to see stats on how many politicians have a sub 80 IQ

Sorry David I didn't mean to cause offence, I've obviously misinterpreted the document.

They say if you stack 1 Trillion dollars in dollar bills on top of eachother. . . .you've got way too much time on your hands. also .. you'd need a to hold your breath for a while cuz you are on the moon.

impressive ...

I thoroughly understand this woman's plight. I once called 911 because I vending machine stole my quarter. well . .I woulda called 911 but I didn't know the number. and BTW that picture above is just so nasty. . .

You're right... http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?p=137248#p137248 Sorry for taking so long!

Given the nature of the material, id say its better to have something in a foreign language with subtitles. Would be a lot more informative for both native speakers and non-native speakers.
