It's Restoration Hardware, everything is pricey. Design costs money.

Excellent, glad to hear it. For all its faults, Apple does tend to be very good at customer service (though the exceptions are usually very bad).

Here's my advice on Apple Store repairs: be utterly and completely honest, it'll go a very long way. I've heard similar stories before, but here's my experience: I spilled water into my MacBook. It wasn't a lot and I immediately shut it down, shook it out, didn't start it until it was good and...

Obviously not, since you said you thought of him as a comedy guy. Nor would I expect you to have seen him in Once and Again or Brothers and Sisters, for the same reason. Some folks here might have seen him in Happy Town since it was a supernatural drama from last year. Either way, I'm simply...

Wow, that's... insane. I mean, she's definitely not "most beautiful woman in the world" material in the Margaery sense, but "butt fugly"? I do not want whatever it is you've been smoking.

It's very good at bending without breaking, very good at not getting scratched, and very good at not getting nicked when hit directly with something hard. It is not, as you have seen, all that great against hard crashes. Yeah, that bites. After I accidentally dropped an extremely heavy rock on...

Since Wings almost all of his roles have been dramatic. He played could-be-evil-hard-to-say in Happy Town (mostly "hard-to-say" due to the show being cancelled) and was the antagonist in Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, so there's some precedent.

It was also already in use for mobile software by, if I recall correctly, Palm in the late 90s, too, and they weren't referring to Java applets. I was simply using it as an example of a term for software.

It's just that (a) I'm completely unfamiliar with this argument and have been closely following e-paper since Jacobson's invention of electrophoretic displays in the late 90s, and (b) the argument seems nonsensical since modern Latin letterforms are composed of lots of straight horizontal and...

Except for how "app" isn't the one word used by everyone to describe the thing sold at the App Store. Software for computing devices is generic, and "software store" is certainly as generic as "shoe store". Apple wasn't the first to use the term "app", but they certainly were the ones to...

I don't think spheres are used because they're more pleasing; they're just the only shape that will completely flip around when pulled at from any angle.

It is as of today, definitely. If they had a really successful tablet of their own it's possible they'd eventually limit it, but it's unlikely. Apple isn't trying to block Amazon from selling apps, just from calling it an "app store", which you have to do in order to protect your trademark...

It first came up in a serious way about 6 weeks ago and seems to have a resurgence now. It is incredibly likely, and I for one look forward to what they'll come out with. That their Android app store is curated -- aka a "walled garden" -- is a serious boon to Android's potential future. Add to...

Columbo was such a great series, standing head and shoulders above the rest of NBC's Mystery Movie series due to its unique plot structure; the audience knew who the murderer was before the detective did. As a result we got to watch an intellectual game of cat and mouse between detective and...

Lots of Apple vs Adobe stuff. Prior to the Flash stuff there was a long-running issue with Adobe never fully porting its apps over to the Cocoa framework which meant they wouldn't run in 64-bit mode, eventually making them inferior to the versions running on Windows, especially when dealing with...

I watched it on a whim, knowing nothing about it in advance, and it was a hoot!

Easy enough to check in IMDB. The actor, Colin Cunningham, has been in a lot of stuff, including a stint as Major Paul Davies in Stargate SG-1 and single appearances in the Stargate: Continuum video and Stargate: Atlantis: Other genre shows where he's appeared in an episode or two include...

Looking through the Google Images matches, I think she's every bit as hot bald and usually more so.

Persis Khambatta proves you wrong.

I was going to link to that -- and I agree that Hart fits my mental image well -- but after I looked into each of them they all seemed incredibly unlikely. I also agree with others that Sackhoff doesn't fit for a whole variety of reasons, not the least of which is her height; camera tricks for...
