Art. Only for people with money.

Why does my own party make me hate them more, and more, and more ?
Why they didn't simply make a touchscreen MacPro is beyond me. The iPad is crippled.
When I was younger I was a pirate for one reason and one reason alone. Lack of funds. Now that I am older I take pride in supporting the developers and content creators. However, without the internet and pirate downloads I never would have gotten interested in graphic/website design or discovered so many great genres of music and film - which then translated into sales later in my life. I guess art and education tools should only be for the rich?
I wouldn't blame them even if they did. Apple basically declared war in deciding not to carry flash on the iPad. However, 'sabotaging' HTML5 just seems like sensationalist tripe.
Pay attention. I certainly wouldn't yell but if you got the order wrong because you didn't understand what I was saying I would ask for the proper order. Even if the wording was redundant the message was clear that the person wants black coffee - you were too spaced out to put the information together.
I don't mind flash but I found this hilarious. How exactly does a video format treat you so badly ? Flash eats up my CPU like crazy but it seems to run just fine when viewing sites like TheDailyShow.com or Hulu.
I think the iPad is good for what it is - a personal media player. It is NOT the laptop/touchscreen hybrid next generation technology that we had hoped for. I suspect as a PMP it will see wide success, but there is still a massive void yet to be filled with a proper touchscreen laptop that can accommodate all of our computing and graphic needs. We can only hope another company steps up to the plate and delivers something truly revolutionary. Not just another iPhone/PMP.
Why not have the best of both worlds ? A nice home setup and a laptop as well. Laptops are nice but I don't think they will ever be able to rival a true desktop experience. Their keyboards are cramped and their screens often get tiring to look at. I've got one and another on the way but I still use my desktop when I'm at home 90% of the time . Not to mention with a 3-LCD setup I do actually see that boost in productivity that you spoke of.
