As so many other posters, the fact is that you have no idea what transpired. The driver is prima facie guilty of attempted murder. Nothing more needs to be said. I do not understand the number of otherwise reasonable people here who are blaming the victim.
Yes you are right, the husband is obviously guilty of attempted murder. I'm just saying that in this case the guy should be let go. Call me a monster who believes in eugenics, but people who are stupid pollute the gene pool don't deserve to exist. Someone who throws themselves on a car is, to use your termonology, prima facie guilty of being an idiot; and therefore does not deserve to exist and pollute the gene pool (in my belief system at least).

Bad move...
Obviously, there is huge demand for cheaper Macs. Cheap doesn't equal bad!
Mac minis should start at $399
iMacs should start at $899
MacBooks should start at $799
MacBook Pros should start at $1499
Mac Pros should start at $1499
There is no reason this wouldn't work.
Yes. Absolutly. I still hear the argument that Macs are expensive. For example my brother needed a new computer. Even the lowest price Apple computer would cost something like $700. His budget was $250. He was able to buy a generic 2Ghz Celeron mini tower. The $250 system was fast enough for normal email and web browsing. He didn't say that the Mac Mini was "over priced" just that it was "expansive" there is a difference.
Apple simply ignores the low end and this is what most people buy.
They do really need a $399 entry level machine.

All this XEON and workstation parts talk is fine for the DP systems, they are competitively priced, we discussed this probably a thousand times before.
However, if you look at the base Mac Pro (SP), you will find out that this machine is about $1000 more than comparable machines from Dell or HP.
There is an Apple Tax on that machine, a fairly large one to be honest.
And why do they charge this tax? Simple, because they can! Apparently their margins are high enough.
Edit: Beaten by Hellhammer (and some others ;)), just take a look at his example.

Will pirates be able to use this technology? I'm not sure how successful the eye tracking will be when using an eye patch.
Yeah, but they are likely not part of the iPad ecosystem anyway since they have a hook for a hand, and hence cannot readily take full advantage of the multi touch display.

I've noticed that the 8GB iPhone 3GS model is now on pre-order from Canada's online Apple Store. Ships by June 24. Cost is $549 with NO CONTRACT. You can choose your carrier afterward.
The iPhone has never been available from Canada's online store before. You always had to purchase through a carrier (with a contract). The carriers in Canada are BELL, TELUS, and ROGERS.

Put me down in the, "I'll believe it when I see it" crowd. Getting decent battery life out of anything with a 0.3W radio transmitter in it is difficult -- unless you don't use it to actually talk to anyone, or put in a large battery. "Ye cannae change the laws o' physics!" :D

The corporate savages also employ 50,000 people and have enabled 100s of app developers use their forum to create new ideas that employ more people. Same goes for Foxconn, who without Apple's contract, would not have the resources to hire the thousands of Chinese people to give them even the meager salaries they do receive.
Shame it's so cost prohibitive to hire people in America to do the job. Could have avoided the whole situation.
..and as a result of shipping heavy industry overseas, the U.S. is now bankrupt.

I don't know where you people live, but I hear all the time from people on here acting like At&t is SO HORRIBLE. I live in the midwest and I never have any problems with At&t...full service everywhere I go and rarely any dropped calls. I've had them all, Verizon (which completely blows), sprint, nextel etc.... At&t has the best service...
I think this refers to large markets. There have been lots of complaints about AT&T in New York City, San Francisco, and a few other places. It seems that the population density has saturated AT&T's ability to keep calls going with the 3G network active.

So 1 in 20 people who have a cellphone have an iPhone. Not bad at all.
The amazing part is how many models the companies above them (and below them) are selling to get to where they are.

I think you are agreeing with their point, that our devices identify us and are not hard to track, while taking issue with their choice of example. Is that right?
Depends; I don't fear being tracked.....I agree its possible, but much easier to track consumer electronics if you are with the FBI than joe-blow. Again, not an issue to me because I'm not doing anything stupid enough to warrant their attention.
I disagree with their tactics. Take the least dangerous device of them all, because its famous, and create publicity over something thats less effective than stalking someone at 1000ft by walking down the street behind them.
They make it sound like stalkers are going to use this; stalkers aren't going to toy with electronics for hours to make things work, they will do it the old fashioned way or by buying a radio or gps tracking system that you can find at literally hundreds of websites online for dirt cheap.
I think you are agreeing with their point, that our devices identify us and are not hard to track, while taking issue with their choice of example. Is that right?
I could also buy a dog and track down a person by sniffing their scent. Don't see the media making a big deal about that one
