Given enough time, a monkey can type out a Hamlet. But who can live that long to wait? I think that is why I tend to agree with Chomsky.

Resolution matters when you need to work with text. For me, Macbook Pro 15" retina is the best thing ever happened, and it is impossible to look back now.

If this is the same one on android, I don't see where the excitement comes from. I love their image search though. Take a picture of painting, show you a lot of info.

They need to work more on their browser. They are using the same webkit core as iOS, right? Reality is, every time I used the browser on Nexus 7, I want to throw it out of window.

I don't think this has anything to do with Scott's departure. He sold most of his shares 6 months ago.. It's time for him to leave and build his own company.

Yes, it is slow and clunky, but better alternatives are next door. So why complain?

Yes, as long as he's not giving presentation.

Forstall did a great job bringing Mac OS X and its Core Technologies to a mobile device. Let's not forget that. As a side note, I do hope iOS will become more open under a new leadership.

Yes, rounded corner is in Apple's DNA.

That Podcasts app is really really a piece of "work". whoever designed it should be fired.

Perhaps Apple will release an iPad mini with Retina Display sooner because of the peer pressure:)

This problem is solvable (actually solved by TeX 30 years ago). Try to read the page on a narrow screen like mobile phone, you will know how bad it is without hyphenation.

If a text-focused theme doesn't do justified text align, it looks bad.

Good to know the problem is gone. How does the animation feel like after an hour of use?

Very few loves writing documents on a tablet. Most love games, musics, books, videos. If MS focus on selling office on RT, it will be a disaster for the product, and for the company. For long documents it's going to be slow no matter how th

> The whole "if you don't adore the iPad you're in denial" thing says more about the writer than the Microsoft store salesman. You misread the blog post. He described a lot of bad details regarding the usability. For example, sluggish r

I don't understand how they can do it without access to Apple's internal database, which I believe Apple won't share with Google.

He had very good reasons, Amazon is going to sell a lot of kindle fire and people are going to come after them.

Exactly. I am surprised that the author even asked.

I don't get it. This type of app is extremely fit for web. Tying to a single platform doesn't really make sense.

Nice read. Didn't know that this style was documented by bwk.

Actually I would vote for the simpler one. Branch predictor should take care of the optimization pretty well.

I don't see why this could not be released as a web app: 1. Access from any device; 2. Charging via PayPal isn't worse if not better than the App Store.

But same as your reasoning, you didn't have to buy windows either, there were still 1% (maybe more) computers that runs other OSes. By the way, I agreed with you, government should not interfere as long as MS didn't shut competitors out of

I don't see much difference between how "Microsoft force feed everyone with a browser" and the way apple does, only that Apple is worse. iOS is not a product(you can't buy it separately, can you?), it's a platform that many developers make
