Apple's proprietary thinking has always been a bit of an achilles' heel. It's the main reason the PC gained such popularity.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: The Apple iPad Thread
« on: August 23, 2011, 12:16 AM »I just found out that I'm going to be getting a free iPad 2 for a class this semester. I have to give it back to the school in December but it the mean time I get to keep it as if it were mine until then. It should be very interesting to see if it lives up the hype. I am by no means a Mac geek and have been PC user nearly forever, so we'll see if this changes my mind at all.
I am not looking forward to iTunes, that's for sure.
iTunes is alright....been using it for a few years with my iPod...and it synchs the iPad just as easily. In fact, I can synch the iPad wirelessly if I choose to.

Nice score, Chris!
I almost bought one, but decided the Liberty was better with the baby (who was born a week later).

I still think Deception Point and Angels & Demons were he best works.
And both movies sucked out loud.

Interesting stuff. Where'd you get that light fixture at? I'm curious on the features.

Perhaps you could return the figures to the same store after they get new stuff in?

« on: August 8, 2011, 05:24 PM »I also didn't understand exactly why he had to crash the plane, if he could do that, why not drive around in circles for a while and come up with a better plan? Or try and eject? Guess I missed something there.
I don't understand how he got from the French Alps to the Arctic if he was heading for New York.
Because the fastest way to get from Europe to America would be a polar route.

Good question. I know that some of the mail away figures (Boba Fett and Admiral Ackbar iirc) came out before the movies. I think the named lines came out right around the time of the movie, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

I use an Excel Spreadsheet with different tabs for different lines. It's worked out well and came in handy with our insurance company.
