That's is magical. :hooray: (That kinda looks like magic, right?)
Sensory, that totally looks like magic... or at least as magical as our current emoticons make.

And Yellow: You totally forgot to use :soapbox: during your rant. ;)

Apple's approach to hard drives is atrocious particularly on the iMacs which despite their size you have to dismantle the entire unit including lifting the screen out (not fun with the 27in panels) while working with various torx screws and other parts designed to make maintenance difficult. Even most laptops are just a pair of screws to get the hard drive out as it's one of the more likely parts to fail and readily available for parts to replace.

Yellow, I feel your pain. I'm a volunteer audio engineer for a group here and that's what we use. I'm a PC guy myself (which is weird, because my default OS on my laptop is Ubuntu Linux 11.10 - and Macs are HEAVILY Linux-based) and I love how robust they are and have every sort of hardware available, and are extremely user-serviceable (if you know what you're doing, that is). They also don't cost so damn much. :hrmph:

OSX may have *nix as its roots but most of that is buried deep to the level that the general interface is not at all like *nix so I don't think it's much of a surprise you're not keen on it.

Whenever family members, friends, acquaintances, that hooker from last night (I'm in an immature mode today :P ) require my assistance with computers, and they have a Mac, I find myself heading straight to the Terminal. Because it's the only thing that seems to have some resemblance to *nix.

nope. cannot play EU games since i have a US console.
Have you seen that confirmed anywhere? The US and Asian releases as both region free but I haven't seen it confirmed for the EU version although I don't know the best places to check.
i asked xbox support about it at one point and they said it wouldn't work. :(

not to mention....i don't wanna play the campaign in italian, really. :unsure:
But....but I want to see all of Noble Team in mustaches!

I was half expecting somebody to burst through the wall in some type of vehicle, then see a mustached Kat walk out...
