Schmidt vs. Jobs, round three.
Google Developing Tablet to Take on iPad.
There exists a certain ecosystem of loyalty among Mac users. There always has. From the intelligent minority in its early days, PC users characterized Apple-heads as black-nailed tweekers.

From the report, “Body parts of albinos are sought in some regions of Africa because they are believed to bring wealth and good luck. Attackers chop off limbs and pluck out organs to [...]
Can you name the last tome you finished? Can you name the last 1000+ page book you picked up and read only enough to consider its message? Hopefully, that was this morning in your Scripture time, but, aside from that, when was the last time you thirsted for a long day filled only with reading?
