Donated blood, going to get new iMac with standing desk and 6 weeks of Nupo diet, hopefully this new computer will distract me from all the delicious food that my girlfriend will be eating. Everything's coming up Millhouse! (http://comingupmilhouse.com/)

To get that much storage you would need 1,000,000,000,000 Mac Mini Servers which costed at full retail is 70x the US national debt.
Apple's 500,000 sq ft data centre usuing Doctor Q's 10 fot of usuable vertical space could hold 104,088,861 not accounting for heat dissapation cabling storage racks etc. Therefore you would need 9,607 data centres of the size of apple's current (which was rumored to cost $1billion). However that is a storage facility literally filled with no walking space between the racks or anything like that so a sensible suggestion would be to double that.
The total size of this project would be 9,607,000,000 sq ft or 344 sq miles. Turks and Caicos Islands (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turks_and_Caicos_Islands) happens to 366 sq miles, although to allow for expansion, shipping port/airport and power plants and other ancilallry buildings such as worker housing, supermarket and such I would suggest that Hong Kong with an area of 426 sq miles is a good place to start. Although given the high population of Hong Kong it isn't an ideal place to build such a facility, therefore the Faroe Islands with a size of 538 miles might be the first sensible place to wipe out. Alternatively you could just dump it in Texas/Alaska as they have plenty of land spare. Alaska would give you natural cooling which would be a bonus over Texas although can you image the series of Ice Road truckers, "In this haul is 100,000 Mac Minis."
All in all to go for something like large with some as inappropriate as a Mac Mini is a costly and ultimately bonkers idea.
Fingers crossed that the sums are correct.
You forgot to mentioned the nuclear powerplants that would be required to run this as well as the affects on global warning this would have ;-)

I'm sure TJMax is rethinking how brilliant their idea is. But is it really illegal? What can Apple do?
Not much. If T.J. Maxx or other outfits or private individuals buy any product at retail price, they own it. Under Federal Trade Law, there are very little resale restrictions. Also, you can sell it for any price your want, that is as a profit or a loss. T. J. Maxx did a classic loss lead to get traffic into their stores from the iPad "sale." I say it is legal IMO.

With all rumor-eyes looking toward the next generation iPhone 5, it's not clear how much demand there is for the white iPhone 4 which is now 10 months late from the original launch. So, here's a poll to see who is planning on buying a white iPhone 4.
Unless anyone is willing to pay crazy early termination fees to replace the same model phone they already have (just in a different color), knowing on top of that that it's about to be outdated, who in their right mind would even consider it? Dumb poll.

It needs offline maps. Without that, it's pointless on an iPod Touch, or any WiFi-only device. If I could save just one city at a time: say I'm going to London, and I will need a map of London all day, then I could save a given radius of a London map and it would be handy.
What I do now is take screenshots of maps while I still have WiFi, but that's totally annoying to do.

Yes, men should stop. And to prevent sexual assault women should dress in a classy way. I hope you're getting my point.
How many women have you personally raped because they looked like sluts? How many women have your friends raped because of how they looked? Have you or any of your friends ever been able to restrain yourself from raping a provocatively dressed woman?
If I personally knew someone who seriously entertained the notion of raping a woman, for whatever reason, I would do my best to see them get therapy at the very least.

First Jobs on an official vacation, jony seems to be rumored to be leaving for London, and now Serlet's gone. Man! must be something is wrong here...success getting into Apple's nerves? :confused:
3 unrelated events, followed by a stupid conclusion. Also..
1. Jobs has cancer, if you haven't noticed. He's on on 'vacation'. It's a health leave.
2. Ive isn't moving to London. The rumor has been discredited.
3. People get replaced all the time. No reason to think it's a bad thing. Lion looks awesome.

After looking around, guess the 1TB 12.5mm hard drives won't fit either in the 2010 Mac Minis. Guess I'll be removing the optical drive then and installing it there... :p
Anyways, I will know for sure when I rip into my unibody Mini tomorrow :D

White iPhone ... The hot new accessory for females this summer.
most ignorant statement ever.
You might think my comment was stupid, or perhaps ludicrous, but please explain to me what about it was ignorant?

iOS improved so quick compared to other OS
There was so much missing it was easy to add stuff. And to add to the noise in this thread, yes, the notifications system needs to be improved. Right now, it's all or nothing, it needs to be a la carte.

According to data on your first chart I'd say that corporate income tax revenues need to increase dramatically. Corporate income taxes only represent 9%(191 billion) of revenue yet individual income tax represents 41% (899 billion). Combine that with all the bailouts the government handed out to the banks and some corporations and I'm guessing the net rate might be close to 0%.
I'm not saying individual taxpayers won't have to sacrifice in order to solve the problem, but I'm not sure why there are those that argue that no matter how many tax breaks corporations get or even government bailouts---that's its always the individual who has to pay.
It's a policy based on greed straight from the richest people and companies in this country.
