So you're depositing into some sort of kidney bank?

What do you mean "planning"? They already are in some places, including Apple Stores themselves. But more often you see iPads in that role with a bigger screen for customers. Are they doing the same behavior? (I don't see why not).

Some sort of a sideways space-elevator.

Yeah, my dad is in the same situation. The companies that make this diabetes machinery will certify it for use pretty soon (probably) but not immediately.

That's interesting to hear since many years ago I took PATH trains at all hours of the night and never saw such a thing. There's a lot fewer PATH stations (13) than NYSubway (472, which I believe is the most stations on such a system in the world) so it might be easier for PATH to use overland money trucks, especially in NJ.

I guess that's perjury because it cannot be true! Even Snow Leopard didn't even include Rosetta 1. But if it was deemed necessary, it would download and install it on-demand, similar to how the Java system worked.
