I've often wondered why Apple doesn't buy Adobe, kill all development for PCs, and leave Microsoft high and dry in the creative market. Just saying...

To me it looked like Apple would scrap OS 9 for BeOS, but after Steve Jobs came back it was forgotten. I remember playing around with BeOS at the time and thought it was pretty fun, though I don't know much about it. Is it UNIX based? Has

I can't stand Apple's iDevice ports. They are wide, difficult to plug, and feel like they will break or snap off. They also collect lint like there is no tomorrow. Apple's magnetic power plugs on the other hand are awesome! I suppose magnet

My oldest boy (he is ten) just finished reading his first novel, which for him was quite an accomplishment. What my wife and I noticed after he finished the book was his writing skills improved significantly.

Ah, I should have just Googled it. That being said, 402,370 years makes it sound even more far fetched.

Voyager 2 (man's fastest space craft) is traveling 35,000 miles per hour / 60 = 583 miles per second. 187,000 miles per second equals the speed of light. Light can travel 57,395,520,000,000 miles in one year (roughly 5.7 trillion miles). So

It's already hacked according to Gizmodo. Now, if we could get 10.1 flash integration (meaning Frash) past beta 0.2 towards something useful we'd all be smiles.

It seems they are still fighting for control through the web browser, and its a strategy ingrained into their very core. I would think they would do everything possible to protect their cash cows (office + os) and limiting browser functiona

I don't see how you could run apps on an AppleTV with no touch interface, different screen resolution, and no HD space. Am I missing something?

That's an interesting point. Here we are on "Hacker News" after all. I wonder if this site's name draws in the dishonest.

On a whim I tried psd2html because I was under a crunch, and guess what? The quality of the markup was fantastic, so now I use them often.

"How often can any company be able to produce game-changing devices?" It seems Apple has a consistent track record for doing just that: Intel / Bootcamp, Mac Mini, Newton, iLife, PowerBooks, The Macintosh GUI (okay, Xerox had it first), i

Love has many meanings, yes. If love is a stretch for you (or does not come naturally) at least try your best to respect their mother, treat her kindly, speak well of her, support her the best you can, and encourage her. These simple steps

I used to call them "Ballbuster" due to their late fee policy. They were worse than taking out a loan from the the mafia, and eventually I started to avoid them in favor of Netflix where I could return the DVD when it was convient for me.

Now that was fun, thanks. I find it annoying that I am taught to spell a certain way, but then the British keep reinventing spellings with "s" instead of "z" and adding an "i" in there just Americans on their toes.

Good thing it wasn't over state lines. I had done some sleuthing on a fellow that took 2.4K from me, had his name, bank info, dad's name, city - nearly the works. The local police wouldn't get involved since I was out of state, and the FBI

From the many articles you see online, you'd think HTML5 was doing circles around Flash. It appears those statements are becoming less and less true, and even if this test isn't a 100% apples to apples comparison it is nice to see Flash per
