The estate tax is a tax on the transfer of money from the estate of someone who died and their heirs. It is collected at the estate level for simplicity and to avoid requiring multiple heirs filing tax returns on the receipt of money.
That is NOT the accumulation of wealth that is being taxed, but the transfer.
So, since you were wrong there, care to try again?
(edit) Just so you don't think I'm being mean, there are some taxes on assets, namely real estate and in some states ad velorem taxes (but I'm not too familiar with that particular tax as it is not in my state).
Here's all you need to know Mcrain... a hardened weathered old-time farmer works his entire life, pours his blood sweat and tears into paying off his family farm, paying income tax on every cent he earned and property taxes on every square foot of land every single year... yet when he passes away and per his request, his farm passes to his only son, the government decides that they didn't bleed enough out of him. Before his son can have the farm, he must first sell off half of it to the highest bidder in order to pay off the tax man ONE MORE TIME.
It's a tax on accumulated (and previously taxed) income... period.

not everyone is a student, and not everyone who isnt is willing to cheat Apple.
Amazon.com. Well, at least for the $1800 price.

I don't know anything about ATA passwords, but one of the expected new features of Lion is whole disk encryption. You might as well wait for that and get it free with the OS and supported by Apple.

This is impossible. The iPhone has no physical control buttons. Users must have physical buttons available for legitimate gaming.
This is a really short sighted and black and white viewpoint.
1. Even games that are better with physical controls can be implemented to still be fun on the iphone. Sure, they probably are just going to be ports over from other devices (hey, let's see if we can pick up a few more sales), but they still are fun to play (I've played Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia on my phone. Both are fun and easy to get over the only having a virtual joystick).
2. Shortsighted because this completely ignores the fact there are many games that you really don't need physical buttons or the gameplay is actually better using something else:

I'd be surprised if anyone would buy anything this old, as it is probably too slow to do anything productive, and even the parts are so outdated that they would be of no use to anyone. You might get more interest if you offered to give it away for free, but in all honesty, if I owned such a machine these days, I would simply throw it out.
Sorry if I sound a little harsh. Just being realistic. :)

Yeah would rather not updating cos I have loads of apps etc and it tales ages to restore etc
You will need to update to the latest 4.3.2 to JB.
I dont think the JB works for 4.3

Who's going to buy this 'technology'?
Creative for one. Mobile phone manufacturers too. Basically, anyone that wants to advertise their equipment as iTunes compatible.
And hokka, there is already precedent for this legally. Compaq reverse engineered the IBM BIOS back in the early 80s and kickstarted the IBM-compatible computer industry. They were able to prove that they hadn't hacked the BIOS, just got one team of people to find out exactly what it did and write a spec, then passed the spec to another completely different team who made a compatible chip from it. Providing Jon has also taken this approach, Apple will have a tough time winning the case.

What would be cool is if you took a trip then you could view/sort your photos by geographic location. Then when playing a slideshow there could be some integration with Google Earth.

Right, that's why Android has taken over the #1 spot in the mobile space
Irrelevant. Just because Android is the lowest common denominator doesn't make it better. Nor does it mean that Apple aren't going to carry on making huge profits. Consider the case of OSX/Windows if you need help understanding this.
and why there are threads with thousands of people asking daily for jailbreak updates? lol
So there are thousands of people who stupidly didn't do their research and bought the wrong product. Compare that to the millions of satisfied customers who don't spend all day whining on the internet.

In the US, about the only competitor for unlocked iPhones was T-Mobile; it seems that AT&T has closed that option...:eek:
It ll probably take at least one year for the merger to complete. Until then, we ll still see people wanting unlocked iPhones :)

Hey,
Ive been having great speed losses and only just figured out why.
I do a speed test while im next to the router... give's speeds of 48meg. I ran this a few times and all were 47-49meg.
I then went into my bedroom and speed tests ranged from 11meg-20meg....i did this a few times... then went back to the same room as the router and speeds again were 47-49meg.
So looks like a distance issue... howevever... i live in a bungalow and the distance from me to the router is about 10 meters (if i was to ignore the 2 walls inbetween). However my laptop shows full 5 bars (the maxium) for signal.
Im using the standard virgin media N router (Dlink)
Any suggestions? Ive tried going on different channels but still the same issue is present.

Basically I'm wanting to know if I can buy a 27" iMac spec'd out on the CPU and GPU side. And the with the ram and hdd at the bare minimum or 4th and 1tb respectively. And then turn around, go to owc and get my ram and ssd upgrade through them and install myself.
I do consider myself adequate at performing these pc building and having experience performing such upgrades on my mbp's.
Thanks,

Guys, i picked up the exact models that i wanted from target yesterday. Heard some resellers like Expercom are getting their new shpments today.. Might as well be an alternative if you cant stand in line for that long. Especially in this cold morning weather.
Just a thought......

Notice that he said FORMER as in no longer at Apple. IIRC, Steve Jobs hates slackers and fires them if their performance isn't good. Sounds about right for that story.

If it is an iMac, or in fact, any G3, check to see if there is a firmware update that you need to run.
Also on G3's don't you have to install Mac OS X within the first partition (within the first 8gb)?

If it's a fifth-gen iPod, it's battery is probably weared down quite a bit already.
You're right. Usually I always do a full charge/discharge cycle to calibrate the battery a bit and see if it lasts longer. Do you think it may even be good to leave it charging more sometimes? I never forget to unplug it, just this one time.

Pretty quick response to fixing the issue with 4th gen iPod Touches. Was getting really annoying. :)
I agree, I just bought the iPod Touch last month, I thought it was the hardware. Glad to know it wasn't.
