I've not given for a couple of years since our town hall was closed for refurbishment (that's where the donor sessions were held). But this has inspired me to look up a session next week.
My "I do something amazing. I give blood" card (http://www.blood.co.uk/giving-blood/donor-award-scheme/whole-blood-donor/) keeps eyeing me disapprovingly from my wallet. Actually, looking at that page, I think I'm only one donation away from the silver award. Sweet!
I'm AB+ (universal recipient) which is handy.

MEh, I jailbroke my iPhone after the last update. No need to worry about another Apple update for months...

Some people obviously don't know the cost of staff downtime. Each day, how much longer does it take windows computer to boot up than a Mac? Minutes longer. Add that up over every single work day. Then add the anti-virus scans, annoying pop ups, etc.
Sure, a Windows machine might take longer to boot than a Mac. But realistically, in a normal office environment computers are left running. This particular point is pretty much moot.
I just saw someone spending 4 hours on the phone with issues of the accounting software not working on windows 7.
Yes, because clearly one data point indicates an industry-wide trend. Check the boards for Applecare horror stories, and those stories are from Apple's target market. Imagine what a nightmare it is when your business depends on uptime and you're told "yeah sorry... you have a small nick on the chassis so we won't replace it."
And it turned out to be the anti-virus, after half a day was wasted (and maybe an hour of my time too). That would have bought a Mac Mini or a new MacBook Air, which can run the same software with ease without security conflicts.
The typical argument of the fanboy... security. Security is a user problem, not a technical problem. I've yet to meet one properly trained employee that has gotten malware on their Windows machine.
Perhaps if you'd like to participate in this discussion further you would consider grounding yourself in reality (and/or subject matter knowledge). Clearly you're in over your head.
Since doing a little more research into it and taking the comments on this forum into account I have changed my opinion on whether or not macs should form part of our IT infrastructure.
It's not so much that Macs do not fit at all into an enterprise environment, it's just that you've made it seem like your entire supply chain, user training, SLA network, etc etc are all geared towards Windows. It doesn't make sense to throw another cog into that system.
I currently have enough trouble simply trying to ensure compatibility between Excel '07 files and Excel '03. Adding Excel for Mac files into the mix will no doubt simply introduce another layer of complexity which is certainly not beneficial. This is indicative of many of the 'small' problems that are typically faced every day in the office, again, no thank you to having any more of those.
Annoying, isn't it? Microsoft certainly isn't perfect.
I spend all day writing reports, specifications, data sheets, e-mails to clients and suppliers etc. All of which require dotting every I and crossing every T from a grammar point of view.
I certainly hope so, but I doubt it. The possessive apostrophe is pretty elementary. Just be careful when you start getting calls from Mac's Computer Hardware.

Post some screenshots of some new features/easter eggs from Mac OSX Lion here!
My DP has been screwing around with Safari and for some reason I can't attach any of my screenshots, so I can't put any up� yet.

Donated blood, going to get new iMac with standing desk and 6 weeks of Nupo diet, hopefully this new computer will distract me from all the delicious food that my girlfriend will be eating. Everything's coming up Millhouse! (http://comingupmilhouse.com/)

I like how they can track individual users (scares me).
After reading the the cool new name "iTrack 4", it sounds like a spy phone from a James Bond movie... Sinister!
That's a bad ass name :)
"The FBI planted an iTrack in the suspects car"
Hollywood will love it.
LMAO

I love all the 'worst carrier ever' comments. Do none of you realize VZW is already charging that much?
Of course not this is ignorant knee jerk city here. Most people don't even buy their phones like this, so this impacts a relatively small number of people. The people it probably impacts the most are those gaming the systems for the phones.
This is not some kind of change or charge that is going to impact the majority of AT&T customers in any way.
Of course some dummies will switch to Verizon and be in the exact same boat because they don't think nor do they educate themselves before they speak, write or act.
It is like cavemen, "More money charge bad... Ugga Bugga"

Yes, even when calling the person had to get an ATT manager to setup 700 Nation FamilyTalk A-List when I called 611. They rep said she lost A-list too on her console but the manager fixed it so it will setup in 24 hours... and said the online website will be fixed soon. This is the website process to see this new option - login to your ATT phone account, click "change rate plan", and then you'll see the "+" for the 700 Nation FamilyTalk plan. This just happened today.

educating people as an industry? Who does jobs think he is? Most of the population may be below average to his economical standards... but what the f was that? People know more than he thinks... It is simple for Apple to track anyone on a cellular network and using an iPhone... but it isn't worth the legal risk is it, if the person's' being tracked isn't worth it... but if Apple or anyone really wanted to... there is nothing to stop it with the infrastructure of iOS and cellular networks today...

Firstly, as well as school i've worked 20 hours a week for nearly a year at around 6.50 an hour. I'll leave you to work out how much i've got. So no, it's not really ridiculous.
Secondly, my parents are happy to pay insurance. I find that fair to be honest.
Yes the new fiestas look great but sadly are too expensive.
;)
Guess thats about 6 grand after spending money, and insuring a new car is barely anymore than an old one, My Mk5 Fiesta was �2400 to insure :/

You can probably get the shuffle early, I'm sure one of the retailers will accidently sell one to its customers or have already put it out on display.

I wouldn't be OK with this.
After taking friends to clinics - seeing births - and some of the possible results ,,, I know at 18 I had no idea what I was doing. Thought I did, come to find out I was wrong.

Just buy him some condoms and tell him to keep it down.
It's hardly gonna stay down, is it. ;)
Oh, and by 18, the kid really should be old enough and responsible enough to be able to sleep over at his girlfriend's place. As other have said, they'll have sex irrespective of whether they are allowed to sleep at each other's houses. :)
