...that money is quite possibly the coolest personal computer yet created. The cool is more than merely aesthetic. Unlike a lot of previous Mac machines, on which you could almost fry an egg, the iMac G5's beautiful white surface does not get noticeably hot. Nor, at a whisper-quiet 25 decibels, does it make enough noise for most people to hear, let alone those who have been blasting their eardrums with the iPod...
...that money is quite possibly the coolest personal computer yet. The cool is more than merely aesthetic. Unlike a lot of previous Mac machines, on which you could almost fry an egg, the iMac G5's beautiful white surface does not get noticeably hot. Nor, at a whisper-quiet 25 db, does it make enough noise for most people to hear. Designer Jonathan Ive, who shaped the original iMac and iPod, has gone as minimalist as possible with this machine.

Back Down To Earth A mixed week for British Airways: the carrier cheered first-quarter profits of $128 million after a loss last year, but risks legal action after ignoring Italy's demand to stop undercutting struggling...
...Tanzanian I’ve talked to for more than an hour, I ask, “How do you feel about the Indians?”—and for this last part my voice transforms from that a brazen interrogative to an inquistive (and slightly sinister) whisper. They, like the Jews of early modern Europe, are often described as disdainful of the culture that surrounds them, secretive and prideful...
