Damn you Apple. I've been waiting for you to refresh your Cinema display lineup forever and now that you do, you've made it use a DisplayPort connector. And as far as I can tell there are no DVI to DisplayPort adapters, let alone mini DisplayPort adapters. Why do you hate me Apple?
Ever since ASUS introduced the Eee PC late last year, every computer company in the world has been scrambling to introduce their own. Well except for Apple and Sony, but Sony is rumored to be working on one. They're neat little machines, but I can't see how people get any serious work done on those things. Especially when it comes to word processors, those things get bigger and slower with each release. But if Apple wants to enter this market I suggest they leveage their iPhone technology and make a tablet with an attachable keyboard, similar to Compaq's old 10" tablet.
I was just reading about California banning the sale of trans-fats on Digg and I was shocked to see the majority of the comments were against it. The commentators were claiming it infringes on their rights and they didn't want the government babysitting them. Now I hate to lump people into groups, but this is classic Libertarian thinking and its pretty naive of them. Trans-fat are a public health hazard that have been linked to coronary heart disease. They only exist because they're cheap. They're like the food equivalent to asbestos, but I'm sure that group would defend their right to buy that crap too. I remember when Digg was geeky, but now it seems to be home to a bunch of political extremists and that just plan sucks.
