Happy New Year everyone.

Good luck to all you dems seeking re-election. You'll need it.

Dec 31, 09 - 11:00 am Comment from: Ampar

Happy New Year to everyone that can resist the puerile urge to make a political statement.

MDN was a fun place to scream and shout Apple's amazing accomplishments. And point out their failures.

2010. It's not binary.

Greetings from the future (aka Australia). I've made the jump to 2010 - will report back as soon as I make contact with the TouchStone

Happy Year of the Tablet!

Happy New Year everyone

2010 is imminent!

Dec 31, 09 - 11:31 am Comment from: Ampar

And Avatar was a dumb, lovable and predictable story but the most spectacular movie (in 3d) I've seen. I hope 2010 is the year Apple embraces the potential.

Happy Freakin' New Year, Connor MacBook ! ! !

Right back atcha Ampar!!!

Happy NY to MDN and thanks for being the hands down, best mac site of the decade (well, the last year or so but gives a fuc& about the rest of the decade when doing one of these lists!).

Keep up the laconicism, balmer baiting, dell dirt dishing and blind-eyed fan boy mac love through out 2010! We love it.

Happy New Year everyone! Knock'em dead for another year, MDN!

Josh, don't insult cellpools like that.

Happy New Year to MDN and all who read and post here.
(except astroturfers)

For those misguided people who seem to forget that this is "Mac Daily News" not Piss, Moan and Screed Daily News, I wish you better days ahead, because it must really suck being so full of vitriol.

2010: year of the tipping point (and, year of the tiger..)

Yes, Happy New Year to All. Even to political troglodytes that infest MDN's boards.

Snappy New Year!

Happy New Year MacDailyNews team and thank you for being a great balanced source of Apple and technology information!

May the clueless Window followers some day see the light of the liberating glare of the Mac OS X screen!

Happy new year everyone

2+0+1+0=3

The actual year 4.673 billion years. To long for my checkbook.

So I will use '3'

I hope Apple's tablet is a huge success and increases their carbon footprint as much as possible!

Happy New Years Conservatives only! Fail this year liberals!

Happy New Year.

Happy New Year to everyone.

Try not to consume so much brain cell destroying booze that you end up like 'Happy Climate Year'.

Dec 31, 09 - 01:50 pm Comment from: Micro Me

Happy New Year from Godzone, where we were even snappier than Connor Macbook in getting there.

Here's to a year free of political and climate change posts (well, I can dream, can't I?).

Hapy New Year to all, and let's hope the New year receives us all with a nice Apple Tablet.

Whatever the name would be.

Happy New to everyone and especially MDN.

The site is a little too Right Wing sometimes, but is always entertaining and informative. I like the snark, it's something that gets modded out on too many sites these days...

My wishes to everyone at MDN and all looking/lurking:
1- Hope everyone gets laid tonight.
2- Wish you well in the year coming.
3- Remember the men & women of our Armed Forces serving not just in combat but around the world. I remember spending a Christmas Day pulling guard duty in the cold in Germany many years ago. It wasn't dangerous, but it was damn cold, lonely and a long way from my GF. Last time I checked the US Army has soldiers deployed in over 80 counties around the globe. Thanks, guys and gals for serving our nation.
4- For those unemployed I hope you find a great job, for those graduating later this year a great first professional job- no "fries with that?".
5- With a little luck maybe we can have a more peaceful nation and world this year.
6- A realization by ALL Americans that what we have as a people and nation in common is more and stronger than the issues that divide us and that WE ALL LOVE OUR COUNTRY- not just the Conservatives. We the godless liberals love America as well. I did 8 years in the Army & not because I lacked options.
7- Not a chicken in every pot, but an iPhone in every pocket and a Mac on every desktop for all, except Ballmer.
8- Health for the sick and injured.
9- A safe return for all our vets.
10- A shiny new Apple Tablet named Newton to go with all my other Apple stuff.

@ Daily Dose Of Snark,

Sounds good, but I think I'd ad "A cold beer in every hand, and a warm woman in every bed." Just a thought.

Can I trade that beer in for an extra woman? Twins even?

Dec 31, 09 - 04:46 pm Comment from: Islandgirl

Happy New Year to everyone that can resist the puerile urge to make a political statement.

Amen. Couldn't have put it better myself.

Hey Ampar, I'm going to see Avatar this weekend, too. I don't care that it's like "Dances With Wolves with 10-foot-tall blue people." I just want to see the cool special effects!

@Sir Gill Bates
Just speaking for myself, I'll pass on the "warm woman" idea for me but I'm with you on the beer, or maybe champagne. ; )

Dec 31, 09 - 04:48 pm Comment from: The Other Steve

Sorry but 2010 is just a rumor, wishful thinking based on nameless anonymous "well placed, top executive" sources.

Dvorak says 2010 is cracked and will never catch on.
Ed Colligan said 2010 isn't just going to walk in.
Ballmer just through a chair.

"1- Hope everyone gets laid tonight."
Since it's New Year's Eve, I guess everyone will have had the drink of their choosing many times by then and most of usually do the nasty in bed, so I thought that I pretty much had it covered.

As to the woman part, I will be with a warm woman but realize not everyone here is a) male & b) straight. I'm straight, but wish my GLBT friends happy hunting in their world tonight.

Sorry for that godless liberalism coming out, it just does.

Dude, by any chance are you Tiger Woods?

Dec 31, 09 - 04:53 pm Comment from: Sir Gill Bates

@ Jarrettdailynews,

You are a naughty fellow. But yes, yes you can.

I'm not sure if the political comment thing was about my post above which was non political to me. We lefties are more than a little tired of many on the right wing wrapping themselves in the flag like they are the only ones who love the country. Not saying anyone here has done it but we all see it every day.

BTW- everything is political. Saying you are a Red Sox fan or a Yankees fan or a Steelers fan or whatever is political.

Dec 31, 09 - 04:55 pm Comment from: Sir Gill Bates

@ Islandgirl,

Enjoy the movie, and also any form of bubbly beverage you partake in.

Dec 31, 09 - 04:58 pm Comment from: The Other Steve

Okay, so I can't spell threw. I'm too busy driving my innovation hard to double check thingks like that.

Happy New Year from Sunny Long Beach/Garden Grove CA!

Daily Dose Of Snark,

"1- Hope everyone gets laid tonight."

My bad. It's been so long I forgot what that meant.

And if you were truly Godless you would have included those with a penchant for our four legged friends.

Dec 31, 09 - 05:08 pm Comment from: Islandgirl

@ @ Micro Me & Island Girl

I was only agreeing with your sentiment.
Happy New Year to all.

Dec 31, 09 - 05:12 pm Comment from: Sir Gill Bates

@ The Other Steve,

"... Sunny Long Beach/Garden Grove CA!"

Thanks a lot. Rub it in, why don't ya.

Just kiddin' - have a good one.

Okay, just for the fun of it.
Here's a sample of my work for 2009. About 40 photos.

@ Steve,

Nice pics - thanks. I was looking at some of the other albums and this one caught my eye and gave me a good chuckle.

To Islandgirl:

You will love it! But please see it in 3D.

And Sigourney at 60 is still hot.

Happy Arbitrary Notation of 365.2425 Mean Solar Days!

@ Ampar,

"And Sigourney at 60 is still hot."

A lot of women that age are. It's from menopause.

Too bad you couldn't have announced a Happy Bissextile greeting. Sounds kinky, eh?

Dec 31, 09 - 07:20 pm Comment from: Ampar

Actually, Gill, I meant she continues to evoke an erection. Happy Intercalary? This just makes Jews and Aztecs dizzy.

Happy New Year MDN, you goofy bastard!

Happy New Year from sunny suburban Minneapolis, MN. Sunny means high pressure and cold Canadian air. It is currently 3 degrees fahrenheit on the way to -5 degrees. The high temperature on New Years day is forecast at +6 degrees. Oh, and we've only have one foot of snow on the ground. No wonder I'm a grumpy old man!

Best wishes in the New Years. Hope it goes great for everyone.
