    How much are you going to take for the negatives memory chip?

    The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
    I hold an A-7 computer expert classification, Commodore. I'm well acquainted with Dr. Daystrom's theories and discoveries. The basic design of all our ship's computers are JavaScript.

      Some friends have just spent two weeks in their static caravan in Tenby (a sea-side town in Wales) and they came round tonight to catch up. All good fun until...it turns out he dropped his phone in the sea while loading the boat, can I get his pictures back for him? Well, I'll try - where's the phone? At the bottom of Tenby harbour. :doh:

                    Yes, unless you go the trouble of finding out how to make it stop, apple copies all your personal stuff to its servers, for sale to the NSA and any lower bidders (not yet proven). Savvy, intelligent users switch it off as quickly as possible.

                      Well, I was just suggesting to the OP that he might suggest to his friend to log onto his iCloud to see if the NSA Apple made a backup of his pix :) I got an iPod 5th Gen for XMas last year...been taking pix...dunno if they got synced to iCloud, I haven't disabled anything...never logged into iCloud to check :omg: ...don't think anyone cares about pix of my cat or the birdies in the back yard though :-\

                          Low those many years ago people could not understand why I could not upgrade their $5K computer to run windows. I have shown one of my friends copy and paste 3 times and he will ask again and again say that it is brand new to him. He has a masters degree from an accredited university. I think I'm going to start telling people I am a file clerk.

                                  Best I had was when someone asked me in all seriousness "You're a computer programmer Bob, do you think you can fix my toaster?". errrr would that be running the .NET framework then?

                                    Some friends have just spent two weeks in their static caravan in Tenby (a sea-side town in Wales) and they came round tonight to catch up. All good fun until...it turns out he dropped his phone in the sea while loading the boat, can I get his pictures back for him? Well, I'll try - where's the phone? At the bottom of Tenby harbour. :doh:

                                          It could be done! Use location services to determine when you've entered a "tourist trap". And if we can remove red-eye, I'm sure an OS-level "nipple notification" wouldn't be too hard to add to the photo app!
