  1. I agree with qualia on this point, thats why the government cut the solar rebate programs. A friend who had the panels installed for a mere $100 deposit that was refunded once the system was hooked up just got his first 3 monthly bill for $35 as opposed to his normal $300-400 for the quarter with the amount of panels that have gone up in this town i can see the energy companies profit margin being effected

    a friend had his case thrown out of court because of a clerical mistake but that was with the date, so it would be best to get some legal advice

    A new Laptop

    It depends on how much you want to spend look at the MSI GT680 if you can still get that model, or any of the MSI gaming laptops as they are all high spec machines using quality chassis & internal components your better off spending the big bucks on laptops unless you plan to upgrade every 18-24 months Other than the MSI,s as they have a high price tag i would look into a I7 leader laptop as they are aussie made & good quality & ASUS also use a good chassis & internals I wont go into the PC vs MAC debate but ill just say i wouldnt bother with a mac mac

    Who is profiting from "legal" incence blends

    I wouldn't mind seeing it in the SAB store but im sure it would create bad publicity & other problems for the store eventually, it would be a bugger to know how much stock to order as it may be banned for sale any day

    Bin Laden dead?

    I will have to watch some CNN later to get the official story, dont know if its rumor someone said they ID'd him from a DNA match with his family as he was shot in the face seems a good way to plant seeds for him living it up with Elvis, or in a secret prison somewhere being humped by alsations & having his fingernails pulled out
