Yeah, I got mine straight from the Tempur-pedic website. I was too impatient to look for a better deal. But the mattress is great and I'm happy I got it.
The iPod and iTunes is a combination that can't beat. I take all of my music everywhere I go on the iPod, and stream my music all over the house with Airtunes. Hats off to Apple for these products....for my PC.
...The Select-Comfort mattress is designed for two people. I'm a happy bachelor and I like to sleep in the middle of the bed, which I knew I couldn't do on a Select-Comfort, hence my decision to go with the Tempur-pedic. It's like a waterbed without the water...
"The Select-Comfort mattress is designed for two people."
You can get them either for one or two people. The two person one has separate air bladders and a divider. The one person version doesn't.
I used to be a mobile-DJ. My CD collection exceeds 5000 CDs. I got tired of lugging the whole collection around with me. So since Sept 2002, I've embarked on a project to rip the best stuff from every CD I've got, one letter of the artist/group alphabet at a time. (just passed 30,000 songs) I'm using the AAC format (MP-4). I've got half of B, C and S to finish and I'm done! (was working on Jackson Browne and James Brown tonight) Next time I do a gig I can leave the CDs at home.
They are applesauce.
Oh OK! I went to the website and it looked like they were all designed for two people...
Yeah. The web browser that Apple ships with Macs, Safari, can block pop-up windows.
oops, I meant Sept 2003... expect to finish S at the end of May
The annoying thing in the middle I perceived as a trough. If I moved toward the center I was sinking. The help desk sent me some additional foam to stuff in there so it's hardly noticeable. The lumbar effect from the Select Comfort is far superior to another air bed we have used.
If that will work like the orange juice boycott the NAGs attempted in Florida I would buy Apple stock as soon as the promotion agreement is announced.
Joe, I do not appreciate being called a liar... and I am sure the fellow you responded to originally didn't either.
I can easily set up an antique Apple Mac IIsi to work with a "STANDARD" VGA monitor with one of those adaptors:
Adapters were made for both nine and fifteen pin monitors. Heck, I had a bag full of them in my garage... several dozen assorted types I bought at an auction at a local college that I eventually sold to a reseller... Using this simple adaptor, the IIsi would, however, be limited to the standard VGA resolution of 640 x 480. With the one or another adaptor, you could hook the Mac up to any 15 pin VGA monitor. In fact, with a more sophisticated adaptor that allowed you to select the pin for the sync signal, the IIsi could support a VGA, SVGA (800 x 600), XGA (1024 x 768) and the Multisync monitors made by many manufacturers which allowed you to change rez on the fly.
Just because YOU couldn't do it says a lot more about your lack of knowledge of old Macs... and your attitude and rudeness toward fellow freepers says a lot about you.
But, Joe, what in hell does a Macintosh introduced 15 years ago and discontinued 12 years ago, have to do with a modern Mac introduced last week? Every Mac released in the past five years can use a standard PC monitor of any stripe either directly or with an included adaptor.
Now YOU can continue to live in the past... it's okay. Really... just don't spread incorrect information and call those who DID these things liars!
Don't forget: 256meg standard, +$75 to get to 512meg; +$425 to get to a gig(!). WTF???
Man that's awesome. The Hardrive based Mp3 player is surely the product of the decade.
Bill Gates owns 20 percent of Apple. It's Win/win for him.
Apple dropped that memory upgrade price by $150 a couple of days after the Mac Mini was introduced.
Interesting, I could never get more than 640x480 out of my IIsi, must not have had the right adaptor. Great machine though, up until 2001 I had mine acting as a router/NAT sharing the modem connection on my home network.
Er, no.
