Well, If everybody had the $10,000 for a top-end Mac we'd all be happier. But I find it nearly impossible to do much on the Mac. I like Windows XP for its program compatibility and ease of use.

Last time I checked you needed special expensive parts to build a high-end Mac(correct me if I'm wrong.) I like my Windows PC very much. It's the newbs and such that need help so I help them.

And sometimes even macs have problems.

That's why I make a compromise and use Linux for my net surfing and basic typing.

MacOS X does have its ups :)

But my problem might lay in user compatibility. Without troubleshooting what would I do for a hobby? lol

First up:

Guitar Hero II came out for the 360 ^_^.

My complaints though:

No one had an extra guitar, non-bundled (a awesome local shop said they should get a decent amount in tomorrow). Which is too bad but hopefully I will get one tomorrow. :)

Second, I found an online printable $10 off anything over $75 for Best Buy (expires tomorrow) but the sales person said it was only good for $5 off when she put it in the computer. :(

Oh well, $5 is about 2 gallons of gas. :p

Britain's talking spy cameras

p2pnet.net news:- Middlesbrough, a large town in North East England, has something other places in in the UK don't have.'

Yet.

Middlesbrough boasts loudspeakers fitted to CCTV cameras so operators can, "bark commands at people committing anti-social behaviour," says the South London Press.

Now home secretary John Reid plans to expand the use of 'talking' CCTV cameras across the country, says Press Association, and "Competitions are being held at schools in many of the areas for children to become the 'voice' of CCTV cameras, Mr Reid said," according to ITV.

"By funding and supporting these local schemes, the Government is encouraging children to send this clear message to grown ups: act antisocially and you will face the shame of being publicly embarrassed."

With kids already doing spycam voice-overs, will the next step be getting them to act as remote copyright spies like they do in Hong Kong?

Meanwhile, "Local communities are rightly fed up with littering and anti-social behaviour - they want to remind people about what is, and is not respectful behaviour," says Reid in the PA story.

There are an estimated 4.2 million CCTV cameras in Britain, even though a Home Office report published four years ago concluded better street lighting was seven times more effective at cutting crime, says ITV.

The scheme has been criticised by opponents as 'Big Brother gone mad'," says PA, going on, "But Mr Reid insisted it was proven to work and the communities sharing nearly £500,000 in grants to adapt cameras would feel the benefits.

" 'The new funding for Talking CCTV is aimed at the small minority who think it is acceptable to litter our streets, vandalise our communities and damage our properties,' he said."

The Breathalyzer Test



A cop pulls a really nice red car over. He walks up to the window and sees this beautiful blonde. He asks for her drivers license. But she didn't know what that was nor where to keep it. So he told her and she gave it to him.

Then he asked for her registration, and again she had on idea what that was nor where they kept that. So he told her,and she found that and gave that to him. He told her that he would be right back and he walked back to his car.

He got on the radio to tell his friend about the blonde in the red car. His friend told him to give her stuff back and pull his pants down. All confused he walked over to the car and gave her stuff back, confused he pulled his pants down, she looked at him and said:

"Not another breathalizer test, I swear I haven't been drinking!"
