Face down. I don't really know why. I don't have to worry about dust because they're in a closed cabinet. And I'm not worried about the rims getting dirty from the cabinet because my cabinet is clean... So I guess it's just out of habit. I probably picked it up from one of my college roommates.

I have the exact opposite problem. I'm constantly having to remove music/videos/photos/apps from my phone because I keep filling it up. Meanwhile, after upgrading my laptop's hard drive I have plenty of space on it (plus additional external drives for backup and storage).

I use Mozy for off site backup to go along with my harddrive back up. You should aways keep your really important information in two different locations, just in case.

I've been using my cell as an alarm clock since I went to college. I do agree with with moving it out of arms reach though. I find if I have to get out of bed to hit the snooze button then I'm much more likely to stay up.

Also, I use my phone to read books with before bed (I love the Kindle app), listen to music, and occassional as relaxation/sleep aid.

Like danielhertlein, I'm curious to know if the study was done on the exercise ball chair or an actual exercise ball. I never really got the exercise ball chair, taking the ball off the floor and putting it in a more stable chair seems like it defeats the purpose of using the exercise ball in the first place.

I'd go with a 15" laptop myself, well, if you actually plan on using it as a portable computer, not a desktop replacement. I currently have a 17" MBP, and while I love the screen space I find that it can be a bit bulky to lug around all the time, plus you'll have a lot more versitility in case/bag selection. I'm planning on going to a 15" when I get my next laptop (hopefully sometime in the next few months).

I'm not even going to get into a Mac vs. PC debate. Just get whatever you think is the best value.

Argh, typo. It can double as *art*

I once lost a big chunk of my music(thank god for software that can pull music off of an iPod), all of my photos and a lot of other important files because I neglected to have a proper back up. Never again.

But yeah, ever few months seems too long to me as well. I would say to back up once a month at the least (weekly would be better). I have an external HD with a bootable back up that I used to updated everynight, but now I just update it once or twice a week. I also use Dropbox for files that I want to share/sync with other systems and I use Mozy to do offsite back ups incase of a fire or something like that.

So where do these people keep their food if they have their fridge filled with shoes? And If I had clothes in my oven my place would definitely burn down...

Maybe they just really like the number pad? But I agree I would ditch the keyboard in that situation.
