I'm a bit late to this thread, but I finally replaced my 12" PowerBook as well. After 4.5 years it was time for something new. I got the 15" MBP, and I can't believe how bright the screen is! The glass trackpad is truly amazing, and I can finally run more than one Adobe CS4 application at the...

I took an intro to organic and biochem class at my community college the semester before I started organic chem at my university. I realize that won't help you now, but I've found community colleges tend to go at a slower pace and people aren't as afraid to ask for extra explanations in class...

I thought some of the existing Mac laptops had backlit keyboards already: maybe just the Pros and not the regular MacBooks. Either way, I'm sure the Air is an improvement. Congrats!

I was so excited for this announcement, but it's not for me right now. I haven't seen one in person yet, but the weight and size looks good. Just too expensive and my PowerBook still works well for me. I've looked at the other laptops, but they don't have a big range of sizes, and I think I'd...

This could just be my personal perspective, but the simplest way I tend to describe Macs vs. PCs is that Windows tends to make you do four or five more steps to accomplish the same goal that a Mac lets you do in one or two steps. And the terminology in the Mac OS has always made more sense to me...

Interesting... I hadn't attributed it to Safari, just figured it might be SDN or I might have deleted the cookies by mistake. I go through and delete cookies I don't want periodically, and there are so many to scroll through that sometimes I delete ones I intended to keep. I've been having a...

Well, the MacBook Air is here. The name is kind of strange, but whatever. What is the difference between the two models Apple is offering? the price almost doubles for a different kind of hard drive-is it a better quality hd or something?

MacRumors Link I'm getting excited, and while I know a rumor is just a rumor, my 12" PowerBook G4 needs replacing soon. i will be very tempted to order right away, but the first generation of a totally-new product isn't always the best. But if it's like the iPhone was last year and the...

I spent a lot of time reading pages on this site, and it was a bit disheartening to see Pro Plan ranked in the same category (1 out of 6) as Alpo and Beneful.

I bought a small bag to try for my cats a few months ago. One of them wouldn't eat it, but she's very picky, she never eats anything but Nutro and Science Diet Hairball. But my other kitty loved it, but anything more than a few kibbles at a time gave her the runs too. I donated the rest of the...

I generally agree about Friskies and store brand foods, but anecdotally, my first family pet was a solid grey alley cat who ate Fancy Feast all her life because of a urinary problem. My parents were told to buy only Fancy Feast varieties with an ash content lower than 3, and that's what she ate...

Life's Abundance can be seen here. Just click on dog or cat food at the left.

I have read many conflicting reports about what are the best foods to feed our dogs and cats since the food recalls earlier this year. So I'm wondering: what do vets feed their pets? I was going to create a poll, but I think there are too many choices and not enough poll options. I was...

She already has, the link's in my signature. But for the sake of this thread, it's: http://www.myspace.com/meowmiracles and the paypal address is [email protected] I didn't want to be extremely needy and beg for donations, but if anyone wants to promote the myspace site please feel...

Thanks for the tips, VeganSoprano. I've passed them all on to her, although I know she has been doing tons of laundry and using one type of medication. She has posted on Craigslist, too, and she's in Charlottesville, VA in case anyone knows anyone nearby who wants a kitty or two. Does anyone...
