  1. Mirado just replied to your comment:

    Oh…oh wow. Alright, you need to fix that, fast. Watching the prequels without the originals is like not having watched Star Wars at all, to be frank. Episode 1 is a travesty, 2 is more middling and 3 is actually alright (in my opinion), but they all pale in comparison to the originals. I’m curious to hear what you think of them having gone into it in the reverse order (some of the big reveals that make the first trilogy so special are assumed to be known when you see the second set, for instance). But you should see them ASAP, as they’re one of the defining entries in the sci-fi genre.

  2. I think the main prob is they are just waiting till they get a full redesign of the site. Since this one was thrown up in a week after the switch over. Dont know if they have anyone for the website since the week of the switchover alot of people were bounced around Whiskey was split up. So maybe they have no one?

  3. Honestly guys, I really like the 13 inch Macbook pro.

    If laptops are porridge then the Retina is too hot, the air is too cold and the 13 inch Macbook pro is just right, for me at least.

    I was gonna buy the retina, but its way too expensive and I was gonna by the air, but it doesn’t have enough GB’s of storage. I’m maxed out right now on my 300 GB macbook, between movies, music and games so I need something at least 500 gb, which if I did that with the Air, the price is way out of my range.

    The 13 inch Macbook Pro is really exactly what I need.

    and I definitely agree Will, that the 64 GB entry level storage is WAY too low. That’s the same size of my Ipod.

  4. Apple is known for taking an idea that someone else has been doing for years and adding to their ecosystem and claiming it as a new and great idea. The reason Apple gets away with it is that they find a way to make it easy to use and in a large way improving on the competitions version. Then pushing it to the mass population. This will not change in the future. I’d hope that the frequent users of the tested website are aware of this and are interested in what is being improved not the fact that it’s a “new” invention.
