The English alphabet is far from perfect, but I never thought of changing it. Rob did in this video. Would you change it? It’d mean getting a lot of countries to agree. Nonetheless it’s fun to consider.

While Getting a Computer

Today I replaced my trusty, albeit old computer with a new one, another Mac Mini. When the transaction ended, the sales associate asked if I wanted to “stick the computer in my purse.” Hardly, as it wouldn’t fit. I asked for a bag. The sales associate said that they only give them out if the customer asks. “It’s for the environment.” Ok.

Which does Apple think is easier to recycle, the paper bag or the computer?

Think, folks.
