Thank you. :)


I've searched for a similar discussion thread of this forum, but I couldn't find any topic that was active so if anyone know one please tell me.


Early this morning when I've my first cup of coffee, then I heard on the swedish radio P1 that http://www.gamesas.com/redirect.php?site=http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703326204575617004052395816.html?mod=WSJEUROPE_hpp_LEFTTopStories.

For those who have listen to Beatles in their youth (even I was young) can now buy their music directly from iTunes. Would you?

We generally have separate threads for any noteworthy news, many of which hit the post limit on their own merit. You'd be better served focusing your threads on the one piece of news you have, which will be of interest to a fair few people by itself. Although I find it amazing that their music wasn't available on iTunes years ago?

Due to licensing disagreements between Apple Corp and Apple Inc it has taken a while; and negotiations only begun after a trademark infringement case was settled between them.
The web has been alive with anticipation for this, this http://www.techdigest.tv/2007/07/get_set_for_app.html is from back in 2007 about the possibility of a 'Yellow Submarine' themed iPod - which would be cool.

Thank you for the information and I didn't know about that article until you post it here. :)

Since I tend to get a fair chunk of my music via iTunes, there is a good chance I will grab some I don't already have, if I suddenly have a hankering to listen to them and have the money to waste. I am glad that it's available there now though, that sure did take a long time to sort out.

I'd recommend 'their' album 1, it is a compilation of their 27 Number One hits; a great way to get into their music and tempt you to buy the original albums.

You should hold on to them for a few more decades, maybe give them to your grandchildren. They may be worth a chunk of change in the future. :D

I think I can sing just about every song, without listening to them on headphones, though I already put revolver on my i-pod without the help of i-tunes, cartoons or Maxwell and his Silver Hammer. For me that's always been their strength, sing-along-Paul-John-George and Ringo.

China made the worlds fastest supercomputer, using 14,336 Intel Xeon X5670 CPUs and 7,168 NVidia Tesla M2050 GPUs.

I think this thread is a good idea for the small things we hear about that dont really need their own thread.

That was really fast I mean it's almost in a lights speed.

I've used Panda for many years now and I always wanted to have the best protection there is available for a reasonable price.

When I open Thunderbird earlier today just to check out if I got any new e-mail and there was a new one from http://www.gamesas.com/redirect.php?site=http://cybercrime.pandasecurity.com/bredolab/index.php?lang=en.
I use http://www.gamesas.com/redirect.php?site=http://www.pandasecurity.com/activescan/index/?lang=en-US (free online virus scanner) to scan my PC for this new threat Bredolab (trojans). :user:

I've never heard of such things. What's mudkips?

Scratch that... I just notice a hockey news from the swedish television (Sport News) that Marcus Vinnerborg is the first european to judge a match in http://www.gamesas.com/redirect.php?site=http://svtplay.se/v/2237021/har_skriver_vinnerborg_historia.

Please note that site has the swedish language and there is also some comments in swedish you hear from the video.

I had the weirdest sense of Deja vu reading this, until I realized it was an old thread and I'd already read it.
