Computer Time

That warp in the space-time continuum that happens when you get on the computer "for a few minutes" to check your email and the next time you look at the clock, it's 4 hours later. Similar to what happened to people in the movie "Looker".
Also akin to the NFL minute.

Man: "Honey, I'll be up for dinner in a few minutes, I've got to check my email."

Woman: "You said that last night. By the time you check your email, read the headlines, check your stocks, play Zuma, look for car parts on eBay, watch a few YouTube videos and download music to your iPod, it'll be midnight! A few minutes in 'computer time' is like a few years in dog years!"

Man: "True dhat!"

apple computer

An overpriced and underpowered piece of crap. A silly device that the owners of claim is faster than anyone elses computer but, will cheat on benchmarks.

ooow my G5 is so much faster when I optimize the OS to run only the benchmark and nothing else (apple users all ware clown shoes)

apple computer

Proof from the mechanical world that good looks does not equal ability to do even the simplest tasks.

My PC may not look like that Mac, but at least I can watch my crap in peace.
