Laptop battery myths
marco:
TUAW ends this article about laptop batteries with this advice:
Never leave the machine plugged in all the time. Laptops are meant to be portable. Using it as a desktop that never runs on the battery will destroy your battery life.
Cycles are your friend. Never letting the battery complete a cycle will greatly diminish your run-time. Try to avoid charging the battery unless it’s...
Movie Review: 17 Again
5 out of 5.
Believable. Great story.
This movie is funny in many different subtle ways. The casting decisions were excellent. It makes you feel bad for the guy, wish you had your own second chance, and be proud of something all at the same time.
Movie Review: District 9
4.5 out of 5.
Excellent moviemaking. Great computer graphics work. Good storyline.
From the beginning of the movie it didn’t look like it was going to turn out well. It is in the ‘handheld camera’ perspective for the most part, the accents are difficult to understand, and the story moves slowly. But as things progress you begin to acclimate to the dialogue and the ending is...

What can I say…Wayans, Wayans, Wayans! They’re funny but the quality of the moviemaking is not always the best. They have gross and off-beat humor if you like that kind of thing (which I do). That said I can still give it no more than a 3 as a critique.
Interesting facts.
hmm….interesting

Movie Review: G.I. Joe
5 out of 5.
This movie was awesome! From the intro credits to the end credits it was just great. I really enjoyed how they showed back stories for not only the heroes but the villans as well. It seemed like the movie was so much longer than it really was because they jam packed the movie full of action and storyline. It just didn’t seem like you could put that much good story into just shy...
