I did, and you did. But you weren't listening to me, and you weren't even reading what you were posting yourself.

I'll only sell it to you if you promise to use it every day. Also, you have to show that you believe, based on rational consideration of all the alternatives, that the BMW is the best motorcycle on the planet. You must be choosing it because it is the most powerful, practical, highest quality...

I don't ride my motorcycle every day. Should I sell it?

I think there's an important difference here between someone like Princess Diana, or Amy Winehouse, and someone like Jack Layton. These other people who die, they are public figures and celebrities, and people have an emotional connection to them, but they are not elected. Jack is a person...

I know my opinion doesn't matter to you, and that's too bad, because it should. Because I know what I'm talking about, and you don't. I was hoping I'd be able to explain something to you, because you seem generally interested in this topic. And yet you refuse to accept the definitions of...

You stopped making sense a while ago, but I thought there was still hope for you. Now I'm getting the feeling you're not just confused. You might actually be a few cards short of a full deck.

You yourself keep posting the definition of money. You should be able to get this. Keep trying. As you see, you've got some points wrong, and you've got some right. But in any case, gold does not fit all the characteristics required of money. So, gold is NOT money. Keep working through...

Because they are assets that are recognized as a good store of value and a hedge against inflation. That doesn't mean that it's money. I can't believe you're having a hard time seeing the difference. Why don't they hold diamonds? Likely there are a bunch of reasons, but I can think of a...

What does the value of gold have to do with its being money or not? My house is worth more than $1800, that doesn't mean it's money. My car is worth more than $1800, that doesn't mean it's money. Gold can be worth $1 per ounce, or $1800 an ounce. It still doesn't mean that it's money. You...

After posting all these descriptions, it's clear that you either haven't read the descriptions you've posted, or you're incapable of understanding them. You really still don't know what money is. I can't help you with it - the descriptions you've posted will do a better job explaining it than...

For a guy who started this whole thread referring to Apple buyers as "cool-aid drinkers", you are really going out of your way to show willful blindness on this issue. HP has abandoned development of the product. They are practically giving them away so they can get rid of their inventory...

You continue posting internet links, but does that mean you're actually learning about the difference between assets and money? I hope you're reading the stuff you're posting, and I hope it's clearing things up for you. If you read the description you've posted, I hope you see now that gold is...

Now they've suspended the only gold that could almost be characterized as money!

Yup, you'll have a giant user base of folks who won't pay more than $100 for a tablet. I'm guessing that isn't exactly the target market HP was hoping for.

Come on, only sheep think that way.

There's nothing wrong with paying respects to someone after they've died, that you never respected in real life. People do that with their families every single day. Sometimes you don't appreciate someone when they're alive. You take them for granted. Then when they're gone, you look around...

I think there are several parts of this post that suggest you dislike apple.

Sounded like you said you were a developer for ios but you thought it was an inferior product. If I spent my time working on something I didn't like, I'd change careers.

So much for the ipad being just a toy. For what it's worth, I've seen ipods and ipads put to use in a lot of professional and industrial settings.
