Mar 29, 2012 - I built my computer for 1300 dollars which has 64gig flash memory for a terabyte drive with a quad processor overclocked to 5.4, 16gigs of ram and gforce 570. Macs best consumer computer available at their store is their 12-core at $4999 has half the processor speed, half the ram, no flash memory RAID set up, a worse graphics card and costs more than 4 times as much that doesnt sound cost efficient. If you like them more that's fine but cost efficiency is a testable claim.

Mar 29, 2012 - My point remains firm...average consumers (like my brother, friends and clients) don't know jack shit about technology; and more importantly don't want to. As for myself, I bought 11 out of my 12 Macs secondhand (my first Power Mac was $35) and my newest is a $599 Mac Mini. Plenty of power for me over the years, and all at affordable price points for me.

Apr 2, 2012 - I wish this concept of variability would be adopted in the world of politics. Isn't about time we all realize everyone is not left and right? maybe we could reach a much higher satisfaction with our government. random thought I guess.

Apr 9, 2012 - In my twenties I forgot my love of reading, having fallen victim to video games, television, and other forms of entertainment that everyone I knew was involved in. Reading "The Tipping Point" reminded me why I loved books so much and I've been reading steadily again ever since."Blink" and "Outliers" are also remarkably interesting.Gladwell is a seer, an observer. He recognizes patterns and peculiarities the rest of us are oblivious to.If you are a thinking person, read his work.

May 6, 2012 - Aspartame is regarded as a neurotoxin so how this man he speaks of is seemingly responisble for causing the happiness of millions of people is definitely questionable
