If you have ever slept in a hotel room (infamous for their dry air) in the north in the winter and seen all the static electricity you make but just turning OVER, you realize can have this for free. #expose
The only way this would attract a woman into your bed is if she were genetically modified with genes from a fly. But even if that were the case and fly-women were your thing you could get the same effect by taking a dump on your bed and saving yourself the 7.5k. #expose
@Xagest: The appearance of what looks like some sort of anime or manga character confirms that no normal person would ever want to sleep with the "several girls" who are crazy about blue LEDs. #expose
@Brazell: One of those girls is my little sister, so that's just awkward from the get go. But she's also an electrical engineer, so the feel of glee when things light up is in her nature. #expose
@strideo: You might want to start buying your mushrooms at the grocery store instead of gathering them from your back yard for the morning omelet... Just a suggestion. #expose
@strideo: Oh, I see it. The round cutouts on the walls are the eyes and the lips (open mouth) are the lit up blue parts. The bed is showing us its 'O' face. Awwww yeah... bow-chicka-wow-wow...

@DBrim: Actually, it's not just a service pack as it re-writes major portions of the OS. Leopard is not a true 64 bit os. It's a hybrid 64/32 bit OS. Snow Leopard fixes that, graphics rendering, and a bunch of other things that were frankly dragging the OS down.
And if you'll notice, they're only charging $29 for the upgrade. Which last I knew was far better than ANYTHING Microsoft had put forth, and considering how bad VISTA is, they had really better cut their customers a huge financial break.
I don't consider major system re-writes to be just a service pack. I consider a service pack to be a roll-up of existing system patches already to market, plus a few new ones. Apple just released 10.5.7 recently which was some 450 megs?
Not to mention, the new OS takes up 6 gigs less space than than 10.5 does. Something Neither Vista or Windows 7 can claim.
If MS released a package similar to SL it would be free. The major rewrite you are talking about is something that they had promised to devs forever ago. WTF do you think cocoa was for... Jesus wake up
The OS takes up 6gb less because they killed PPC support AND SP2 for Vista did clean up space.
What's the point in even responding... Go drink some more kool aid fanboi.
@UnderLoK: Actually, if you look above, you'll see where I'm interested in both Win7, and Snow Leopard. But Vista does not run, "Just fine", I support it daily, I use it daily. Hell I use it more than I use MacOS. It's bloated, slow, buggy, and well, like every iteration of Windows since 95 it likes to eat itself to death over time. Only, faster.
If Vista ran "Just fine" then Microsoft wouldn't have had to spend $300 million on a marketing campaign to rebrand Vista as Mojave.
XP is a superior OS to Vista. Period. I'm not "drinking the kooliad". As for how they recovered 6 gig of OS space, if you'd actually bothered to do your homework you'd know why it's smaller. They even said so during the keynote yesterday. If you think Cocoa and PPC support was 6 gig worth of code, you're insane.
Let's take a look at Vista objectively compared to XP. The same applications run slower, and use more memory running under Vista than XP. There were lawsuits filed against Microsoft over its Vista Ready program.
When installing a program that requires administrative access to do so, it will prompt you to cancel your install and re-start it as administrator. OSX simply pops up a prompt and asks you to type in your password. XP doesn't even bother you with this at all. I really liked XP as an OS. It was far superior to 2000 Pro.
But, no, I don't "Fail" the moment I talk about how bad Vista runs. Only pathetic wannabes throw out words like "fail" and "Kool-aid" when trying to make a point. Which, in you're case you haven't made any point.
As for SP2 for Vista cleaning up space... No, not really. It merely cleans up archived versions of files it replaces. Overall it uses about an additional 1 gig of drive space after installation.
But, what the hell do I know? Obviously I'm just a "failed" fanboi drinking the "kool-aid" because I can appreciate that OSX is a good OS, and definitely a superior one to Vista. Windows 7? Not so much, and I can't say that I will consider Snow Leopard better than Windows 7. Right now it is likely I won't.
Sorry, I don't worship at the altar of Microsoft. When they release a shitty product, I call them on it. Same goes for Apple, or even crummy Linux distributions.

Leopard wasn't a service pack like many asserted (it actually added features), but this is since it adds nothing.
