Even if I am an Android long time user I would love to have an easy way to experiment with two OS on the same device. I'll be then able to end up using the one I like the most. Competition is great.

One of the things that I remember from 1996 Gate's book "The Road Ahead" is him calling the day when everyone will walk around with his smart phone. "You'll be able to carry the wallet PC in your pocket or purse. It

I got it but I also remember a time when people purposely restrained from turning the comment section into a joke fest. It's simple when I want to write and read silly stuff I go on reddit and when I want a serious discussion I come he

Your anecdote gave a different result than the one in the story. This doesn't prove or disprove that it's better to be nice or clever. It only tells that there is no absolute rules like "it's better to X than X". Those rules help to illustr

I also installed the preview to see how it works and after many frustrating experiences I now found the perfect way to use Windows 8 on my laptop. When it boots I immediately launch a remote session to my windows 7 desktop.

Valve is not a public company so there is no shareholders nor investors who can pressure Gabe to sell. There is also absolutely no insensitive to sell for him. Even if he gets tired of Valve he can simply start a new venture by using the in

A couple of years ago I've read and listened to lots of motivational and self improvement books and audio-books. 7 habit was one of the most insightful I've read. This book has nothing to do with the "get rich quick" category we usually fin

The point of the article (and most people who say that Winamp use to be great) is that it was good for it's time before AOL acquired them in 1999. So did you use Foobar then? Of course not, Foobar initial release was December 2002.

The problem is that the article seems to give advices based on the personal opinion of the author and has no data to test his theories. By testing different versions on my web sites I often got better results from "ugly formulations" like "
