i've never been to chilis. i hate it

How can you hate it if you have never been there?

Honestly, I feel really bad for people who go to those places and really never know what good home cooking really is. I don't mean to brag, but my mom makes food thats a LOT better than most restaurants. It's really unfortunate for those who have to pay to get semi-good food.

Stupid tourists. i bet u all the people who parked their car their are shoobies!!

Shoobies? That's a new one!

Really?

Speaking about food poisoning, Chili's around here is notorious for food poisoning. I have a friend who got it 4 times from Chili's. Good thing my mom never lets us eat at those places.

SSS, "kick off" is one of my terms. Actually, I got it from House (season 1 or 2 i think)

Never listen to people at electronic stores. Almost all of the time, they have absolutely no knowledge or any idea what they're talking about. Do the research on your own, and you'll save a lot of time and money.

I'm looking at a Mac Mini.  Does anyone know how they are?

Depends what you're wanting to do with it.

Getting used to the OS (my advisor has told me that I need to be familiar with Windows (both XP and Vista), OSX, and Linux), basic web design (text-based, maybe some graphic-based)...nothing too powerful...the most powerful thing I might do is slideshow movies.

It should be fine. Just note that a mini isn't very upgradeable, so you should not count on it being a long-term machine. I've also heard rumors that Apple is going to discontinue the mini in the near future, but i have no idea when.

you have to buy everything else extra (which adds up)

No you don't. That's why it's called Bring Your Own Display, Keyboard, and Mouse, not Buy Your Own Display, Keyboard, and Mouse.

Most people buy those things.

Depends what you're wanting to do with it. Obviously, they are at the very bottom of the line, as far as Macs are concerned, and mid-range as far as PC's are concerned. Not very upgradeable, you have to buy everything else extra (which adds up), and isn't capable of very much. Personally, I'd go for an iMac.

I thought no one cared. Hence, why does it matter if no one cares?

I'm confusing myself.
