Ryan and I finally agreed on something regarding Macs: it’s so freaking annoying when you have a window minimized, and you’re tabbing through open applications with apple-tab, but when you get to the application that’s been minimized it doesn’t pull the window out of the dock and onto the screen. HELLO?! Does it not make sense that maybe I’d want to view the window? Is there no key combo or anything that will maximize a window from the dock, without having to click on it?

Please, prove me wrong.

1. Break it in half with your hands (very easy to do) and use the glass viewing screen’s broken edge as a razorblade to slice the jugular when they are looking the other way.

2. Take off one sock (a dress or tube sock; pantyhose will work in a pinch), place the Nano in the sock, swing it around as fast as you can (being careful to not hit yourself), and whack the intended target right on the temple.

3. Take the reflective shiny part and catch the sun’s ray and shine it in a vehicle driver’s eyes, or if you are at a rock concert and the lead singer is prancing around on a center stage that protrudes into the audience like a phallus, you can use the same technique.

Did you really think I’d let an Apple announcement go by without mentioning it? Some may say that I only want the black one because it’s, well, “hot” looking. This may be true. However, it also has some pretty decent specs to go along with it’s sleek exterior. Lets take a peek:

Ok, so this thing practically kicks my G5’s butt. Except for the graphics card, which is the worrying factor here. You see, if I really want to buy this laptop, it would have to be a replacement for my G5. There’s just no other way that I can afford it. Yet how can I give up my G5 without knowing how WoW will run on the MacBook? It has the same graphics card as the Mac Mini, and what few benchmarks I would find for WoW running on the Mini did not look encouraging. I’m assuming there will be reviews for it in a few days, I’ll have to wait for that before I can decide.

Oh, and today was the holiday known as “Nabaztag Shipping Day.” Rejoice! Also, some more pics will be uploaded from my trip to SoCal.

APPLE CAR

How much Apple stuff did he have to buy to get all those stickers?! I mean, wow. If I had a car, I’d have an Apple sticker on it for sure. I’m glad he has some of the “old skool” rainbow ones on there too.
