Depends on the use. Also, unlimited will eventually become limited to some extent because bytes don't grow on trees.

Yup, afaik Google+ gives you unlimited, up to a certain limit! That is, you can upload as many pictures as you want, but after X limit they will be resized below 2,048x2,048 pixels. Of course, Google+ is a social network so... you'd have to upload them to the social network and then use them.

Also by Google, Picasa offers 1 GiB unlimited resolution, after that, you may continue uploading but they will be downsized to 800x800 pixels at most.

Bytes don't grow on trees but.

-> Even if they did, they'd tax you for gathering them.
-> The service is more than just bytes. Keep in mind, for example, that the service must be avaliable 24/7.

It reminds me of the cartoon where someone goes to the all-you-can-eat restaurant and upon being served one small dish of food is informed by the restaurant staff that amount really is all he can eat. In other words, all he is allowed to eat.

In the USA, the internet service corporations advertised unlimited broadband internet for a fixed monthly fee but limited users with either throttling and/or additional service fees after either a number of hours or amount of total bytes usage. They were taken to court for false advertising (back during the Bush business-friendly administration) but the result from the courts was that "unlimited" didn't mean unlimited usage, but rather that the company didn't bother telling you that you were limited.

I'm baffled... How did this guy mess his PC so much that every executable (.exe) is associated with PowerDVD? Fortunately, the problem was remedied just by uninstalling PowerDVD.

WTF!? After 2 weeks, now the all .exe is associated with MS Picture Manager!? And you can't remember one bit of what you were doing before this mess happened!? Unbelievable!!! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

People who don't know how to take good care of their computer and end up making a complete mess out of it shouldn't be allowed to own one.

By Jove you're right. Though for what it's worth I had (mostly) no problem getting used to the ribbon interface so that's fine by be. Looks pretty light weight; if I need something even lighter than paint.net maybe I'll give that a try...

7-Zip hates those modified archive headers. Old WinRAR version still comes in handy once in a while.

Apple's web site backtracks on 'most powerful' map app claim, CEO Tim Cook made a rare apology and the Bing Maps was recommended as an alternative. Must be extremely painful for Apple's reputation right now.

Apple doesn't need that. Even if it went below zero, people would still camp stores for hours to buy some random new crap because Apple. And because people.

Why the fuck are people asking for Macintosh tech support on online forums? AFAIK nobody studies tech support for Macintosh' (Unless, that is, you're an Apple employee).

Also, Jobs once said he created the iPhone to save us from the evil porn (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif).
