Pretty puss.

Spunky little thing. Should keep ya' hopping for quite some time. uh, and why "Five"?

Two days ago, I got myself a kitty. Went to the vet today, turns out it's a female cat. Therefore people of MacNN, meet Five, the new lady in my life:

I've had a savings account and some CDs there for about a year. It's just their simplicity and ease of use, great service, lack of annoying marketing, etc that makes me like them.…

wow � I did not know it had such a fanbase. what services do you guys use?

Don't know much about the interest rates by comparison with other things, but service-wise, ING is really superb.

Considering an ING Internet Bank Account. 2.10% seems OK. Better than my local 1% Citibank Preffered money Market Account. Are you guys aware of a better deal?

k, here is the deal. rebroadcast of the show from sunday night, but with added updates (live?). i'll watch anyway.

yup, as far as i know, the show will contain live updates. looking right now at pbs.org to find out more. but they said it, and you confirmed what i heard. so, it must be true!

Yes, I am planning to watch also. Until they announced it last night I thought that the program on Tuesday was just a rerun. It should be awesome to see some of the live updates.

yup, great program last night. and, don't forget to tune in for tuesday's episode...first full color images will be aired.

I watched the PBS show NOVA last evening "Mars: Dead or Alive." Proudly I saw some PowerBooks being used.

It was faked just like the moon landings. There is a soundstage in N. Hollywood with a bunch of red dirt.

Haha another wild thought = do the televio/alchemytv cards actually send the sound through the computer internally or do you have to run the line out to the computer's line in (my …

go to price grabber or froogle and look for tv's in your price range, some places have free shipping... no tax, no shipping... cant beat that! P.D.

I wish I could grab a 24" FD trinitron or whatnot but you know that aint happening besides 20" is fine.. my mom thought THAT was too big (and not because of price) lol. Yet agai…

I bought a flat tube Apex and RCA 20" because of their price. They sucked -- a lot. So I ended up with a Samsung 27" for $370, but it was *well* worth it!

So the time finally came, after getting my gamecube I get the lovely opportunity, provided I pay a part of it, to get a new tv Anyway, seeing as the prices came down a little (ok…

Yeah, I've noticed quite a few Mac laptops watching NASA TV. Already spotted four powerbooks (one or two 17", I believe) and one graphite clamshell iBook. Hmmph. Damn Mac nerds.
