After owning a MAC for a year now, I think this video sums up my experience perfectly. I'm not sure what makes me so mad, that my expectations were more so I was fully disappointed or what! Maybe it is because I paid a significant premium to own a Mac and its not that much better than Windows!

Passenger with IPhone Challenges Airlines
This is a story about a passenger who challenged the airlines regarding the wheater because he had it on his iphone. The story can be found here.
The funny part was when the captain got on the over head and said:
"If the passenger with the IPhone would be kind enough to use it to check the weather at our alternate, calculate our fuel burn due to being rerouted around the storms, call the dispatcher to arrange our release, and then make a phone call to the nearest Air Traffic Control center to arrange our timely departure amongst the other aircraft carrying passengers with IPhones, then we will be more than happy to depart. Please ring your call button to advise the Flight Attendant and your fellow passengers when you deem it ready and responsible for this multi-million dollar aircraft and its passengers to safely leave."

Writers Guild of America on Strike
Forget the details, here is the important information:
How you'll be affected
- Immediately: Late-night talk shows, which depend on topical material, will go to reruns
- In about one month: Daytime soap operas will go to reruns
- By January-February: Current prime-time shows will likely run out of fresh episodes
- Reality shows unaffected; Fox, with fewer hours to program and powerhouse "American Idol" returning in January, in best shape if strike continues, according to The Hollywood Reporter
- ABC has stockpiled several new shows, could put them on in midseason if strike persists
- TV networks have stockpiled TV movies
- Movie studios in decent shape for now

Heroes 2nd Short May Be Cut Short
As you may know, there is a threat of another writer strike in Hollywood. That leads to speculation that the 11th episode may be the finale as they prepare for the strike. There are reports that they will shoot an alternative ending so that the episode that airs on December 3rd, 2007 can suffice as the end of the season.
Google Phone to Be Annouced on Monday
Reports and rumors are mounting that Google will annouce their entry into the cell phone market with the Google Phone. Is anyone else getting sick of all this news about the google phone? I yawn really loudly when I hear it.

Streaker at NFL Game in Europe
If you watched the game you know there was a streaker but FOX refused to show him to give him any publicity. Here you can see what you missed!
Wii Verison of Guitar Hero 3 Not Living Up To Expectations
The first mistake I saw when picking up a copy of Guitar Hero 3 was that the clerk had to explain to the people getting the Wii version that the 2nd guitar would not be out till sometime in early 2008. So that they could keep it preordered if they left their money down.
Just found it odd that they can ship the game with the Guitar but not the 2nd guitar by itself.
Now reports that the Wii version does not work with surround sound.
