Soul Survivor Mac OS

It still serves soul food classics, though some vegan items, like a plant-based sausage, have made their way on the menu. Hutchins also incorporated some food justice elements into the business. For the past few years, the restaurant hosts designated days to give free meals to people living on society’s margins.

Why is there such a price difference? Is Apple merely making a better profit if we buy from their store?
Does it take any longer to get a 'stock' Mac Pro from MacMall than from the Apple Store?

on line store has no tax?

Both the Apple store and MacMall are online stores.
I've seen some online stores add the tax.

First, is their shipping charge from Mac Mall, if so what? Apple is free. . Second, did you go all the way to checkout at Mac Mall? Sometimes, on online stores until you go to checkout, you don't see 'rebates' factored into price. If there are rebates check carefully.
Thanks. I went through the checkout at Mac Mall.
They have mail-in rebates. I didn't see any tax included in the transaction.
The Apple Store quoted taxes.
I just got the money I've been expecting, and I plan on buying a Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro.
We have a new Best Buy in town, and I plan on checking with them tomorrow.
If they have the 'stock' versions of these computers in the store, I'll likely buy them both there.
I've been waiting a long time.
I plan on adding more memory and hard drives to the Mac Pro later.

Best Buy??? They usually have the worst prices except occasionally for specials. I use BB to look but never to buy. Maybe with their new Mac tie-in, they'll match the Apple store, but lower? I don't think so.
MacMall may be in no tax NH, I forget but they may not charge taxes. You should be able to determine on website. Something for you to consider since your final bill is going to be ~6k. Re memory and other upgrades, online offers good prices better than Apple.
I think you're missing the point.
I'm talking about the prices at the Apple Online store, and the Mac Mall Online store.
The price of the Mac Pro at the Mac Mall is about $300 cheaper than the Apple online store.
The Mac Mall also has a mail in rebate. The Apple store does not.
The online Apple store listed tax when I went to the shopping cart. The Mac Mall did not.
I just called my local Best Buy. They do NOT have any Macintoshes. I'm not surprised because it appears to be a very small store. I hadn't been able to visit them yet because I don't have a car.

Cool.Good luck. I thought you said you might buy at BB.

MacMall is not in New Hampshire, but Mac/PC Connection is (in fact, they are right down the road from me).
As for taxes, New Hampshire does not have any sales tax.

If you want something custom (like a different drive or more memory) you have to go through Apple.com. Be aware that once you order a modified Mac, it's YOURS. No returns unless its DOA. If you buy a stock Mac and it goes bad you can exchange it at your local Apple store.
If you buy from Apple.com, you can become a student (they don't check) and get a discount too.
If you buy from MacMall, the prices seem to be similar but they often throw in bonus software or hardware.
I'd buy with AMEX because they seem to back you up if something goes wrong.
I'm looking at the various possibilities of where to buy my Mac(s).
I live in a small town of Maine, so my options for local stores are rather limited.
I thought of the new local Best Buy store since it is close. I called, and they don't carry Macs.

I don't trust the Best Buys, Circuit Cities or CompUSAs anymore. I think they sell returned items or the stuff that is older than is being produced right now.
I bought from Apple.com and had my machine in two days.
Where are you in Maine? My family is from Oakland!

Buy from Apple.com (through their educational link).
I'm not originally from Maine... I don't know the areas you're talking about. I pretty much hang out in my area.
I'm leaning toward the Apple site now, and trying to moderate my impulses a bit.

You've got to get out more.
My last 2 major purchases were made at the local Apple Store and Apple's website. When buying Apple stuff I only deal with HQ.
Retailers like MacMall usually throw in shitty deals like, 'Buy a mac and we will give you a FREE PRINTER!! OMG!'
What they don't tell you is that these 'free' printers have tiny ass ink cartridges which you have to pay through the nose to replace every time they run out. LAME.
I just ordered my 24' iMac with 2 GB RAM, and a 500 GB hard drive.
I'm so excited.

Sole Survivor is a CBS Friday Night Movie directed by Paul Stanley and starring Richard Basehart, William Shatner, and Vince Edwards. The film, written by screenwriter Guerdon Trueblood, was first aired on television in 1970.

While the film follows the fate of the six-man crew of a B-25 Mitchell bomber, Sole Survivor is loosely based on the 1958 discovery of the B-24 Liberator bomber Lady Be Good in the Libyan desert. The Lady Be Good and her nine-man crew had disappeared without a trace in 1943, following its first and only combat mission in World War II. The bodies of eight of the crew were found in 1960.

Plot[edit]

While returning from a World War II bombing mission, a United States Army Air ForcesB-25 Mitchell bomber sustains damage from action with German fighters. Without any order to abandon the aircraft, the navigator, Lieutenant Hamner (Richard Basehart), panics and bails out. Having no navigator, the remaining crew was now lost and overfly their base by 300 miles. The five remaining crewmen, believing they are still over water, bail out and survive their parachute landings, although one of the crew, Brandy (Dennis Cooney) is badly injured. Needing water and desert survival gear, one of the group, Tony (Lou Antonio), walks to the aircraft following the heading that would have been flown, hoping to find the aircraft and bring back much needed supplies. The aircraft had eventually crash landed in the Libyan desert.

Unfortunately, when Tony arrives at the bomber and crawls underneath the tail to escape the sun, the tail, which has been hanging precariously, breaks away, instantly crushing him. After several days beneath the relentless African sun, the remaining crewmen ultimately die of exposure. Their ghosts make their way back to the wreckage of the aircraft where they spend the next 17 years in a type of limbo state, playing baseball and longing for repatriation back to their home country, which can occur only if their bodies are recovered.

An oil surveying aircraft finally spots the wreckage, reporting the discovery back to the United States Air Force. Seeing the survey aircraft and realizing that they are soon about to 'have visitors', the five remaining crew members' ghosts begin returning the aircraft to its state at the time of the crash, putting objects and artifacts in their original positions in hopes of convincing their visitors they had stayed with the aircraft and hopefully inducing them to search for their bodies.

Having survived the crash, Brig. General Russell Hamner, who had remained in the military after the war and is now an Air Force brigadier general, is asked by investigators Lieutenant Colonel Josef Gronke (William Shatner) and Major Michael Devlin (Vince Edwards) to accompany their team to the remains of the B-25. Fearing disciplinary action and the end of his military career should the truth of his cowardice be found out, he tries to convince Gronke and Devlin that the entire crew bailed out over the Mediterranean with him and that the pilotless aircraft somehow flew on by itself. Although the discovery of a harmonica belonging to crewman Gant (Lawrence P. Casey) indicates that the crew did not bail out over the sea, but the bodies are nowhere to be seen.

Unable to find evidence to the contrary, the team has no choice but to accept Hamner's explanation, though Devlin is convinced that Hamner is lying, knowing firsthand the guilt over his own bad judgment when he crashed his military aircraft in California, killing some school children. Devlin confronts an inebriated Hamner, who finally admits his actions, although he points out that pilot Mac (Patrick Wayne) had turned down navigator Hamner's heading to a Nazi occupied landing point, and then believed that the others had probably (and 'should have') bailed out rather than flying on in the damaged aircraft.

When Devlin returns to his tent, the ghosts of the crew make their appearance to Hamner, leading him to flee in panic across the desert in a jeep. Followed by the investigators, the chase ends with them arriving at the scene of an abandoned life raft (the crew having abandoned the aircraft in the darkness, convinced they were still over open water), revealing to the entire team what Hamner has already admitted to Devlin.

The heading to the life raft and an estimate of how long they could survive on foot helps the team find the missing bodies. The ghost of each crewman vanishes as their bodies are recovered, their spirits accompanying their remains back to the United States. Tony, however, had died under the tail of the aircraft and a solitary Tony remains at the aircraft. A glimmer of hope remains, as a diary is found near Mac's body, mentioning Tony's return to the aircraft. The team decides to make one final detailed search at the crash site.

Production[edit]

Sole Survivor was shot primarily on location in the El Mirage Dry Lake in the northwestern Victor Valley of the central Mojave Desert, within San Bernardino County, California. The shooting schedule involved a three and half-week period in May–June, 1969.^[1]

The aircraft that were used in the film were:

Cessna 310
North American TB-25JN Mitchell c/n 108-34254, s/n 44-30979
Sikorsky H-19B c/n 551050, N860^[2]

Historical background[edit]

In 1943, the actual aircraft - Lady Be Good - failed to find its airbase near the African coast after a bombing raid on Naples. Instead the crew mistakenly flew on hundreds of miles into the desert. This was because the navigation system could not distinguish between a direct or reciprocal bearing contact. The same radio bearing would be returned whether the bomber was inbound or outbound from its base.^[3]

Eventually as the B-24's fuel ran out, the nine-man crew bailed out into the Libyan desert. The eight survivors tried to walk to safety; their remains were eventually found in 1960 some 80 to 100 miles north of the wreckage site. The aircraft broke into two pieces upon impact. When it was found in 1958 by an oil surveying team, the bomber's remains were well-preserved with edible food and water still on board. Its machine guns and radio were also still in working order.^[4]^{[N 1]}

Reception[edit]

Sole Survivor aired on January 9, 1970, and was the first of made-for-TV movies broadcast on CBS, and produced by CBS-owned Cinema Center Films (the company's short-lived foray into feature film production). Sole Survivor was released in Region B/2 in a DVD/Blu-ray dual disk set on March 14, 2016.^[6]

Film aviation historian Simon D. Beck in The Aircraft-Spotter's Film and Television Companion (2016) described Sole Survivor as 'a tense, well-crafted story.'^[7]

Notes[edit]

^In the 1960s TV series The Twilight Zone, an episode entitled 'King Nine Will Not Return' was also based on the discovery of the 'Lady Be Good'.^[5]
