I actually don't have any interest in any game consoles, so I'm not getting PS4 or new Xbox.

Oh crab cakes!!!! I love crab cakes. My absolute favorite are from Ruth Chris restaurant
There is a Ruth Chris Steak House right down the street from my house but they are so expensive to eat there I just can't afford it. i have been there twice in the 9 years I lived in Sarasota and I did not have to pay. Expense acct from where i use to work. :)

Re: The iMore 20K Post Challenge - Are you up for it?

I got it to work on mobile without any issues. The bug was I couldn't access the site at all using my broadband ISP (Time-Warner). I couldn't even ping the IP, much less get to the account log-in. Yes, I tried 'ipconfig /flushdns' and 'ipconfig /release' followed by 'ipconfig /renew'. I was trying to access the site using desktop PC. I thought I'd need a proxy server for starbucks.com!

The site worked using my mobile network provider (AT&T). But I had to use mobile network. My home WiFi network didn't work at all. It wasn't a major problem, since I've only used about 140 MB of data halfway through my billing cycle, and I have an old grandfathered unlimited plan.
Doing all that is very commendable on your part. At least you got it handled though.:)

It was a tough shot. I was looking straight into the sun, so I couldn't see what I was shooting. I just zoomed in and tapped the screen. I was lucky that I got what I wanted on the first attempt.
They just started posting signs about texting and using your phone in your car now, You know warning signs and the news said if a cop thinks and it looks to him that you are using your phone moving your fingers, He is going to thing you are texting and pull you over and give you a $30.00 ticket first time.

Re: The iMore 20K Post Challenge - Are you up for it?

No, it wasn't. I tried Firefox, Opera and IE on desktop (cleared cookies/cache) and tried mobile IE on my Nokia (also cleared cookies/cache) on WiFi. As soon as I used my Nokia on AT&T's mobile network, not my WiFi network, it worked fine. It was some bug with Time-Warner.

Before I succeeded on mobile, I even changed my DNS server from Time-Warner's to Open DNS.
I can try the same thing on one browser like IE and something won't work and slow as heck to load and then do it on Chrome with no trouble and fast loading. When i am on the forum I use Chrome all the time. if I am on my desktop.

I wasn't in my my car. The sign was cool enough to make me park and get out to take a picture.

Firefox Nightly is my preferred browser.

Not that much but I do have a few a PC games.

I always liked the old Adventure Style games from Sierra: Kings Quest, Laura Bow etc. The last Adventure Game I got into was Siberia 1 & 2 afew years ago. I actually played a few LucasArts games through emulators and they were still fun.

Don't know much about Time Warner as i use Comcast for everything, landline, ISP and TV
We don't have Comcast here.

When Adelphia got broken up (and some of their executives went to prison) Time-Warner got some of the former Adelphia regions and Comcast got the others. Our area which had been Adelphia got taken over by Time-Warner.
