Regardless of content the fact that he didn't have backups is juts plain stupid. Deserves pretty much everything he got. Im not sorry if that sounds like im an a$$hole but people really need to assume their OWN responsibility not blame

He is also on the run from some major legal issues here is Australia so it wouldn't surprise me at all. I just hope that the people that know his whereabouts can help him, however poor his actions he needs all the mental help he can ge

This whole article is hilarious. At no stage whatsoever has Apple actually made a statement that confirms they haven even requested the method used. All this laughable article could provide is "quotes" from an antivirus company. A

All comes down to Monetization really.....If you dont find a good way to make a profit stock price will fall. Investors will only wait a certain amount of time before losing faith and interest.

She has a fair point though, if the tables were turned and I decided not to pay apple for an iPhone for 3 months while using it, they would most certainly have a problem, especially when I could potentially hand it back in 3 months time and

As a person in the IT industry within Australia, I speak to normal average people every day about these things. In the last 2 days I have spoken to many people about these new laws, and the general consensus is THEY DON'T CARE, just pl

Im in Australia, and have been with about 12 ISP's over the years and have never had this sort of problem. Not that our Telcos are without problems, they are often horrible to deal with when requiring support. One thing we have which m

It would sound even better if he freezes the cable first :) Seriously though, i would have expected the author to have some basic knowledge of digital signals. Audiophiles are are different breed of people I guess.

In essence yes at least in the context of this case, as it is essentially segregating those who wish to expose the illegal activity of the government, and those that wish to turn a blind eye. Remember, the NSA lied to congress, which is no

Don't want to sound like a smart ass, but I would have been more surprised if it were confirmed they WEREN'T spying on Americans. Its the American Government ???? Really, are Americans that naive to think that their own country doesn't spy

Problem is these recipes are only a guess at what is in most things, and others they only suggest similar tasting items. None of these are spot on exact, and Mcdonalds differ the ingredients in many things based on region and country. For e

I think from what I have followed of this, there have been some pretty lewd and targeted comments made, not only on blog comments but via direct email. While I dont know Bayley at all, from what I can gather she is highlighting the fact th

It would have mattered greatly, in Nokia's favor as it would have forced them to innovate, and if not, at least replicate in order to maintain market in the US. The problem is now, they had such a huge market share in the "non" smart phone

Maybe if they leave things alone Nokia might just survive. If they do whats in that list, they wont be shareholders or directors for long. Nokia fanboys need to realise that they are on a downhill slope right now, and if they continue on th

Pirate, or the term for a "copyright thief" was coined somewhere back in the 1800's I think, by a poet or author describing the people who stole and reprinted his works. Its seems to have stuck though. I know I have the link somewhere to ba

Such is the internet. In its raw uncensored format it can be informative, funny, sad, gross, disgusting, erotic and probably dozens more emotions I cant think of right at the moment. Sure Coke screwed up, and the ad company are obviously id
