If you do a WhoIs on your domain name you come up with the following:
Registrant:

Marcio,
I forgot... if you do take administrative control over your domain, you
might want to exercise the option with GoDaddy to make your
administrative contact info, address etc.. private... an option that
you usually have to pay a few dollars extra for. It will prevent it
from being
Tom, you are so urban, it is obvious you know little about rural living.
My rural Virginia town, Middleburg, has municipal utilities. I live in
town and use them. It also has a utility building for telephone. So I
have DSL and could also use cable. Walmart is about 30 minutes away;
which is
I too live in the country and my answers would be the same as Steve's
with the exception that we have geothermal instead of a heat pump (we
also heat with wood). We are also fortunate enough to have DSL service,
so we don't have to use satellite service for the internet (we do use it
for TV).

Has Apple trademarked the appearance of its stores?
Is this inability to innovate to be blamed on excessive government
regulation of a predatory monopolist or is M$ just pathetic?
It is an extremely ancient practice that if you see something that
works you imitate it.
It is essentially a form of flattery!
So feel flattered Tom, or should I say Steve Jobs.

Not so flattering in business, especially when the larger competitor
does it. M$ also seem to be increasing their copying of Apple. Copying

It is done all the time.
Many companies use similar ad marketing techniques to get customers

The WhoIS would still show who the registrar is (GoDaddy) ... it just

Admittedly, this gets done a little differently in business, but seldom
do businesses deploy the wholesale copying of one competitor the way M$
are at present.

In retail space I read just this week that Apple made more money per square
foot than anyone else anywhere. Who else would look to for inspiration? I
have not been in a MS store so I don't know how much they are copying their
style. Has anyone actually been in one?

While ATT keeps whining about verizon spreading the *gasp* truth, Apple has
decided to take shots at Verizon themselves. Apple has to be irritated
about having sissy partners. What is almost funny is that Apple is
promoting the one space the iPhone can multitask...making calls and getting

Sure look like a fool. :-)
If someone rips my stuff off, fine, I am ripping others stuff when I
put it together. (It is called research)
It works for me but it might not work for you.
What MS has done is emulate the Apple store.
The problems inherent in that is that it might not work for

Not so much biohazards as having the circuit boards gooped up with a

bought a power supply for $20, installed it, and the computer runs.
She mentioned afterwards that a downloaded iTunes video would play only
very slowly. I asked her about her antivirus software -- she had none.

Yeah...we all know hundreds of people who have died of second hand
smoke...oh wait, that's right there are none. Blah. Snobby machines for
snobby people fixed by snobs working for snobs. Apparently these users
didn't read the snob clause when they bought their macs.

That should work. But what worries me is the condition of the hard

Dreamweaver only needs a key and the original disks to reinstall. But
it's also fairly useless these days for modern CMS-driven websites.

there is an HP provided utility to burn a 3 DVD set which will restore
the machine to its factory settings; i.e. the OS and the other junkware
programs. I know Lenovo does the same thing; no disks with the purchased
machine,
With the machines # you can order a set from HP's site.
I recently got an HP mini and I think my cost was about 15$ for a set.
