I want to see that. Looks really good. Probably tuned more for action and drama than an actual documentary though. Oh well.

Loan Shark is about all Apple can jump now.
Special effects Oscar is their best chance of an achievement this year.

My family is about done with apple products. We're not the type that needs/wants to updgrade all the time just to get sh*t to work right when they stop supporting older versions of software. Compatibility issues between our phone devices and ipad3 and macbook pro -not downloading photos from a Galaxy s-4 put the nail in the coffin for us. Fueds with popular software vendors -ie no flash - is also annoying - even though everything is moving away from flash, I suspect that there will be something else that apple is too good for in the future as well. Everything is moving to handheld devices, so it will probably be the last laptop we buy anyway. Wife hardly ever uses her ipad or ipod.
