Mac Book Pro with Retina or Dell XPS 15? (both with new Haswell processors)
by Simon ini've been in need of a new laptop for a long time.
no, i mean it - a really long time.
the old dell that we have has a floppy lid and is woefully underpowered although it does build up my upper body strength every time i pick it up.. the last 6 months has been a bad time to buy something new though with the haswell processors on the horizon promising better battery life and also screen technology seems to have been leaping ahead recently to a new hi-dpi standard.. so apple finally released their mac book pro and at the same time dell has released an xps 15 ultrabook which looks like a pretty good alternative and probably better 'value'.. pro's and con's?

#2: Same as answer No. 1

"His donations were estimated to have helped to save over 2.4 million babies with pregnant women being treated with his antibodies, including his own daughter Tracey."
4 more like him and they could have saved more people then are in the entire witness organisation.
Just a thought...

I upgraded to Mavericks at about 3am this morning and I see my ram being utilized more efficiently and battery life also extended. Just need to upgrade Little Snitch and wait for the Onyx utility folks to update themselves. All other apps and programs run just fine.
I put off using Macs for many many years and was almost in the anti-Apple camp for a long time. But they have more than caught up and passed Windows based systems in the fast lane and show no signs of looking back.
True these toys are not cheap. But then the photography, film editing, animation, 3D design, Music scoring and production I engage in is not cheap either.
Treat yourself :)

Simon I have both the 17 inch Dell XPS and a Macbook Pro 17 inch..
After using PC's and most Dells for over 20 years 2 years ago I got my first Macbook Pro.
In a nutshell I will never buy another Windows based computer again. The difference in usability, functionality, stress free operation is just worlds apart.
With windows machines I was always tuning, fixing, updating, modifying, tweaking, repairing, upgrading,
With Mac machines i am simply totally productive doing what I need, want and like to do.
They are also georgeous design works of art.
I have not regretted switching platforms for one minute. Just make sure you get something decent to begin with.

Can one find God without studying the Bible?
by Dis-Member ini don't recall jesus ever once telling people that they should even read the bible to find god.. he said nothing about 'taking in knowledge' either.. .
he didn't encourage people to read the bible because 90% of people in his day couldn't read!
the bible was not read by most people, it was -heard- when someone else read it aloud.

Cofty: I am not afraid to admit that I am as lost and confused as the next person. Perhaps even more so. This flip flopping deeply disturbs me and hurts me.
Don't know if I am coming or going. I start to believe people here are sincere and consistent then all of a sudden everything turns on it's head. Double whammy.
Going out to get a blood drink.

I don't judge anyone Cofty.. but after several thousand posts in an apostate forum when a person suddenly says: 'I said sorry to Jehovah' and bails back into the vomit that they have brutally savaged and shat on for who knows how long: - forgive me for having zero respect. Not a judgment but a simple observation.
My observations are also not for you to judge. Please apply your own medicine to yourself.
PS: the weak 'apart from you' stab just lets you down further.
