RAther than "kids" how about "ladies" either as used by Jerry Lewis (way back when, not recently) in a high pitched screech, or as used by the drill sargeant in Kubrick's "Full Met…

Well, I have read that there is more than one cause for iBooks not to wake up out of sleep. My problem was cured once I turned off Disk Light 5.0.2, which is a component of Symant…

The "W" keycap on my iBook recently broke. When I contacted the CompUSA where I purchased the iBook, I was informed that they had no replacement keycaps for iBooks, and that I woul…

Most standard polucies specifically exclude breakage of fragile items although coverage can be added for named items usually at very sifnificant additional premium. I would check t…

This is interesting. I went to state farm and ended up getting what they call the Inland Marine Policy for a $50 premium for $2,225 worth of coverage (and $100 deductible). It co…

what the inland marine policy is..is for business. If you dont have a business then you wouldnt need this policy. I have FULL COVERAGE including theft, breakage, mechanical failure…

You know, I spoke to a State Farm representative about insuring my laptop and the cost was $1.00 per $100 of insured value. Therefore, a $3500 powerbook would cost $35 to insure, …
