Next time I have an Irn Bru, I’ll carry out a silent toast in your honour then! I suspect it will be tomorrow night, as I’ll need to relax after moving out of my flat. This actually dovetails nicely with 103: When moving house, you have to move more than one Mac. (I’m in the process of moving seven. Oops.)

Yeah, I found out how to do real quotation marks, and proper hyphens, using the option key, and I do it all the time now. It really upsets me that it’s so difficult to do them in Windows.

...You're banned from all Apple stores for life.

edit: Strange, the link works fine when I click on it from Drudge, but from MacNN it does not work, even though I've repasted the link and checked for typos.

Irn Bru isn't where its at, people. I had some a couple of weeks ago, its actually foul, one should only choose Irn Bru over something else if the something else is (non brand) tizer or something which tastes awful after the first few sips.

103) You own the Mac OS 8 demo disks. Except "Mac OS 8" here really means Copland.

104) 100 means nothing to you because it's Apple™ damnit.

You've defended the fact that you need QuickTime Pro in order to full screen videos with it.
You've traveled over 400 miles just to go to an Apple Store you've never been to.
You still defend the one button mouse.

What? Don't tell me that they've changed it over the last 14 months?

Hmmm... Some nasty Buckfast will have to do then (not really, it's the foulest stuff ever invented!)
