Didn't Apple start suing Android OEMs first? If I remember correctly, there was a mutual destruction pact before then.

Do you honestly believe that Apple wouldn't have sued Motorola if it didn't sue Apple first? Do you think they found infringing patents among thousands and assembled a full lawsuit and filed it in in about 15 working days? Your own link sta

Holy false dichotomy batman. Just because one company is abusive doesn't mean that you need to cheerlead another abusive company. Google is hurting Firefox and Opera by their actions too.

Have you considered anything other than cheerleading Google and Android and hating on Apple/MS? And I like how you attack him personally and call him pathetic because you have no answer to his post and thus want to wish it away. How pathe

Interesting model. Is the binary free to distribute? Even if it's not, someone will just make something like lunduke-free.com and put up compiled binaries.

The article itself seems to be a troll by the author. He seems to have a chip on his shoulder for Microsoft. An example of his childishness: http://semiaccurate.com/2012/04/17/windows-on-arm-rt-wart/ Who am I kidding, he's not childish, h

You're comparing a reply made to a Quora question by a Mozilla developer(sounds more like personal opinion) to a blog post about Windows RT on Mozilla's official site penned by their General Counsel? I don't see how they're remotely compara

And while Mozilla made really loud noises with threats of complaints and legal action about Windows RT and Microsoft, they completely ignored Apple and made Firefox Sync which just syncs bookmarks etc.

What are some recent examples of such Windows viruses even? Most malware is spread by downloading fishy software or from browser/Flash/Java/PDF exploits.

Look at the media coverage of Palladium, Trusted Computing etc.... it was brutally against it. When the iPad hit, the media was mostly about fawning over it and pushing the openness concerns under the rug for the most part.
