Shweet! I'll pay the difference to get out early. Unless you think we'll get a 32gig iPhone by next March.

Its already been established that the password is covered under the 5th amendment to refuse to incriminate one's self. Even if I were constitutionally required to give up my password, I might have just forgotten it. Its a pretty big password.

WTF is wrong with Apple? Yah, I got an iPod, but I don't want your damn browser. What does internet browsing have to do with loading songs on my mp3 player? Can somebody point me toward a site that shows how to disable Apples force-feeding updater so it will stop bugging me to install their hacked-in-20-minutes browser?

Well, I was excited about the medic weapons, but not anymore. I was pumped when I read about the permanent health double gun and was going to be all over the achievements. Now I guess I'll get them if I get them, the Crit gun is the only thing that I see as being useful. The others are "oh, by the way you got a little extra health/uber-charge by accident cause a spy walked in front of you."

"did not have a workforce reduction." I work for a large enough company to see this every few years. They have different names for laying off people. Voluntary Separation Package (VSeP), Workforce Restructuring, Retirement Incentive Program (RIP, I like that one). Also, each department is funded for X number of full time employees. But if a department has 3 job vacancies open for hiring, those get cut first and nobody actually has to go. Some are better than others, some offer money and benefits if you volunteer to leave, but a "workforce reduction" usually doesn't. So they may have reduced head count by 5% but it could have been voluntary or not real people. Besides, my company is in the midst of a 10% reduction and hasn't made the news, 5% isn't AMD turning evil.
