  1. ^ Considering the elevated status of apple's security dont you think Charlie Miller was more interested the name recognition by starting with mac and not the other way around and with vista? After all Microsoft is already made name for it self for being bad with security and nothing further to proof to anyone. Also considering the fact that vista still has more spyware and viruses than Mac's leopard makes you think bit too. By the way no operating system is immune to intrusion/exploits/trojans even industry top notch operating system like IBMs AIX and Sun' Solaris and you name it all have some weaknesses. Every operating system has some vulnerabilities and setting your system with factory defualts is considered practically ****** idea but some operating systems do handle little bit better than the others and mac is one of them. I have had my mac for about year and half now and my web surfing habits are considered very risky as i often download pirated software and movies. On my system I only have small firewall (little snitch) for security and i only use it when i am doing online transections and so far my experience with apple is very positive. In the past i used to have pc with XP and never surfed the net with out being behind zonealarm firewall and still i used to get spyware and viruses. I remember fresh installing my system every three months or so when ever things got beyond control but now not anymore my surfing is smooth. Also not to mention leopard is light years ahead of vista when you talk about neat features like time machine, spaces and quick look. Lastly not the least my favorite feature of leopard is hot corners and if you got hooked on it next time you use pc you would want to smash it on the ground for lacking that feature.


  2. ^ Hell yeah but the odds that favor for such event to occur is so slim and not even worth the mention. The nation's fabric is almost torn apart by the introduction of an afro/american as a president and what would you think if a spanish dude is also is added in the mix? I would probably say full blown civil war..


  3. ^I dont know if his nick name has a meaning but the dude used to be a funny icon back in the days. But now i guess he is struggling and may Allah ease his pain.


  4. In america everybody wants to be a famous, including retired old ladies and pastors but for them to be up on the center stage they have to springboard on someone's hard work to get there. I dont think anybody knew about these two characters and what ever they achieved decades ago but now coast to coast everyone is talking about them. They Mrs Ferraro and Rev, Wright of course succeeded capturing the moment the candidates them selves were preaching for longtime. I would not say this will end Obamas campaign but indeed it is hurtful and of course will have a negative impact on the coming contest at Pen State.


  5. ^ I hate to state the obvious with out making an **** out of my self but the natural implication in your question is that, if the sex part of their relationship was missing why on earth did they stay together that long. Am i wrong? well if i am forgive me, being explicit and rest assured i will smack my self back of the head.
