Can the if-condition become the loop condition, so you won't need to break out of an infinite loop? Can you replace "while true; do" with "while [ "${FORTUNE:140}" == "" ];" or with something like it?l
Why?
Efficiency? It's a shell-script, for bog's sake.
Besides, you'd have to reverse the conditional to !=, or use the until keyword in bash.
EDIT:
Doing a little research on 'fortune' programs, it appears the most common implementations have command-line options for the length of the fortune chosen. The options -s -n 140 appear to limit fortune's output to only those epigrams shorter than 140 chars.
So as an exercise in learning shell scripting, this may have been useful. As an exercise in reading man pages before embarking on projects, maybe not so much.

Never mind, got it. it's a (new?) option that plays a bell sound whenever you are near a school or religious institution. Not sure I understand the logic for it to be on by default though. Easily changed in Settings --> Alerts

I thought of "software.macrumors.com too", but if most Apple apps are seldom the focus of rumors then perhaps at least "osx.macrumors.com".
Also, iTunes Music Store IS the focus of a lot of rumor attention, so how about "itunes.macrumors.com"?
(I can see you'd only bother with the major/frequent rumor topics--no need to get out of contro!--but I like what's been done.)

I had a broken windshield replaced once - it cost me $400 and the excact same thing happened. Mine was so poorly done that when it rained water leaked into the cabin.
I went back to the shop and complained, and they "re-glued" it for me, but upon closer examination I couldn't find any difference - they had simply tried to ********* me. I ended up having to go to another shop and have the windshield removed and re-attached at my own expense. :mad:
Hopefully you can get things worked out better than I did. :(

I called a little while ago and they told me they would be closing up at around 3p. They also told me that they would be equipped to "accommodate" a line.
When I asked for availability, I was told that they would have "plenty" to last through the weekend. Sounds very promising.
I have the day off, so I'm thinking I'll swing by noon to 1ish and check it out. If there's no big line then I'll just get there at around 3 330ish to be safe.
When are you thinking?

2008 black mac. has 1 dead memory slot. no warranty. originally had 2 sticks of 512 memory. now we have 1 stick of 1gb memory. college student says it is super slow. waking from sleep mode, takes 5 minutes to go online. its not my computer so i cannot verify that it is slow. she says it barely runs. is there any software functions that can be done to speed it up so its close to original performance? i am old school pc. i say reload software/os? does that even help on a mac? people complain on this site that mac is slow? what does the exactly mean? a hardware issue or something else?

Some artists have their very own category on my iPod because they have very extensive library's.
Frank Zappa - FRANK
Bob Dylan - Dylan
Grateful Dead - The Dead
Lou Reed - The Man
David Bowie - Bowie
etc.....
Have fun with labels like Cat Stevens is listed as Radical Islamic Singalongs, no offense to Islam and it's followers, just my sense of humor :p.

My wife is going to sell her Macbook and get an Imac.
She is running snow leopard installed under the family pack.
SHe needs to do a restore which I understand i do via the DVD. However when she sells the Macbook how can she provide an OSX software DVD?
thanks

The current MacBook I have is the 2008 unibody. It was the initial launch unit for the switch to the aluminum casing.
But I see your point. And as I previously said, the iPad isn't a replacement, but more of merely an interim solution, and a chance to purchase something I was in the market for to begin with.
I would really appreciate some input on how to go about doing this. Believe me, I hate wasting money just as much as the next person, so I appreciate the concern. But I feel confident with my decision thus far, and hope to remain so.
So if anyone has any advice for how to do this transition best, it would be much appreciated.

This doesn't work for the Verizon iPhone, right?
The 4.3.3 untether works on all devices that actually support 4.3.3 except for the iPad2:

Noticed this today, When playing with 1 of my 4 360 controllers I noticed that on two of them the bottom grey plastic bit is slightly darker but shiny and on the other two the grey bit was lighter but matte. Is this to do with the different models or what? Am I just seeing things?
You're not seeing things, the plastic on the initial models was different. It doesn't mean anything.
