Macbook Pro Vs. Macbook Air
If this is going to take place as the family computer then I would not recommend the Air. I personally wouldn't ever recommend the Air . Low specs, high price, no room for upgrades, limited to 13" screen. Poor choice for becoming the main family computer. The Air is for ultimate portability when you need a little more capability than a tablet. Go with the MBP with 4GB Ram. Go to Newegg, buy 4GB more for ~$80.

Any Watch Fans? What Do You Own? What Do You Like
I'm a big fan of watches too. Too bad it can be one of the most expensive hobbies out there short of collecting planes and boats. Watches ARE jewelry though. If you want accurate time keeping buy a cheap digital or use your phone. One of my favorites is the Patek Philippe Sky Moon Tourbillon. I think Ulysse Nardin makes some beautiful pieces; the Tellurium J Kepler in particular. AP has some pieces I like too. Obviously these are pieces most of us will never dream of owning but they are fun to look at. I like the aviation line from Bell & Ross. Lum-tec has some neat pieces. Not a huge Rolex fan although I like some of them. Hamilton makes great "budget" pieces. I like Tissot. I like Omega Seamaster Planet Oceans.

Macbook Pro Vs. Macbook Air
The only big differences you are looking at are operating system and aesthetics. Ever since Apple switched from PowerPC to Intel processors Mac and PC utilize the same hardware. You can even install Windows on your Mac if you want. Windows 7 and OSX are both great and will do everything you need. Both of them are very reliable. You don't want to fall into a false sense of security with a Mac. More and more viruses and malware are being written for them these days. Safe browsing techniques, pop-up blockers, and anti-virus/malware software should always be utilized. If you do decide to go the Mac route i'd suggest buying the bare-bones version of what you want. Apple charges insane prices for RAM and SSD upgrades. Don't be fooled into thinking they are Mac specific parts and need to be bought from Apple. I do think Macbooks have the best touchpads. Resale value on Apple products is also far superior if that is of concern to you.

Police Officer Shot At Virginia Tech
It was simply a comment about the ridiculous state of affairs concerning gun laws. Doubt you can hear this up on your high horse.

How's that possible? Campuses are gun free zones.

Selling handgun to someone out of state?
I don't need to submit anything to my PD? I guess the receiving FFL is responsible for the transfer of the handgun? Sorry, i've never sold a firearm before. Just making sure.

Selling handgun to someone out of state?
Is the only requirement that I send it to a FFL? Any paper work involved on my end? Thanks.

Does anyone know if the compliant models have started shipping yet? If yes, know any places in NJ with them in stock?
