Walmart will cater to the best interests of their clients. They've screened their content for a while, which their clients don't seem to mind. It's their right to carry or not carry content as much as it is your right to shop elsewhere.

LOST HD. Pretty stuff.

Not sure about you guys but I have users who could kill this thing in a matter of hours.

It was ok. The tight sweaters were the key though. I watched it twice then moved on.

Put PCs in school so you'll learn how to use them? Lame argument. I bought a Mini for home and my 7yo, who never touched a Mac before, sat down and within an hour was creating documents. Even I, at 42, picked it up quickly. I have a coworker who hated PCs and Windows until she tried to open a Mac only repair shop (and realized she wasn't gonna be able to eat on taking care of that small client base, at least small in our town). She bought a base Dell with XP and learned it.

The same with software, nothing I learned in school prepped me for using the HIS (health info system) I spend most of my day working on.

Historical? Yeah, right. It's their land, it's a bit late to fight it now. It's not like it's an old battlefield or historic home that has some meaning. If the cubicle where the phone was invented is so important then see if the Smithsonian wants it.

I wonder if the structure could be kept and the units turned into apartments/upscale condos?

40 bucks for a recharger and a few bucks each for a dozen or so rechargeables will fix you right up. I even *sold* someone some recharged batteries a few weeks ago on a hike (theirs drained).

I'll stick to my Westin Heavenly Bed. It's pure goodness.

I'd buy one just to get around town in. I can easily move around my town at 25mph or so (if that due to traffic). That 35 mile limit blows. I think I'll stick with my bike.

TRENDnet? Please. I inherited a network that had a lot of their stuff on it, NONE of it lasted more than a year. I'd rather use tin cans and string.
