Do you have any suggestions as to specific features or characteristics that I should be looking at to make sure I'm comparing apples to apples? 

New investments by Google, Apple, Facebook and Autodesk is a true testament to the growing infrastructure here.

How do you find the one among many, the ripe apple in the bad bunch, The needle in the haystack?

But like others have said, it's never really an apples-to-apples comparison.

Without boring you with a ton of details, I began a renovation on a mostly occupied building, with a fairly educated budget, an arsenal of tools that would make Bob Vila jealous, a 360lb back squat max, and a belly full of piss and vinegar.  4 months later I am crabby, exhausted, carrying some credit card debt, consuming espresso like water, and just want to lay in a hammock for 3 days and drink myself to sleep until its time to lift weights again, and think about a better way to live.

I was wondering if anyone has installed the new OSX from Apple?

So there still are a lot of apples to apples to compare.

Investing and brokering however seems to be apple's and bowling balls.

There were bad apples who put people into loans they should never have had.

I thought that deed restriction (where you cant flip for 90 days) was lifted temporary due to the terrible housing sales?
