Clamshell iBooks are nice, but they're slow. The screen is restricted to no higher than 800x600 on them, so you don't get a lot of screen space (especially if you're planning to install OS X on it).

My computer was making this strange noise earlier. It sounded like the fans were running on high speed or something. Could that be what was causing that noise?

Pff. Talk About being mean.

If you think Kyle's post was mean, then you obviously don't know Gil well. :ph34r:

I realize that. What I'm trying to figure out is why the same guy did it for over a week before someoene else started doing it.

Maybe Avila didn't want to do that advisory?

Since that's the only other STAR I've seen live, I think it's awesome!!

The Satellite LF is not a STAR.

I'm wondering something, and it has nothing to do with the hurricane...why did the name of the forecaster at the end of the message change? All last week it was Forecaster Avila. Since yesterday its been Knabb/Roberts.

Because there was a different forecaster doing the advisory.

Just got back from my first day of school a few minutes ago. We had to wait FOREVER for the bus to leave the school, which caused me to get home 30 minutes later than I was supposed to.
