I suspect the major innovation they're looking for is usability. I can really only think of a single product that is both modular, and very usable in it's modularity, and that would be cameras (not the point and shoot variety). Y

That's an interesting thought. I wonder if this isn't a way to pre-empt the idea from the PC side of things. A way forward for non-Macs in a modular PC world.

I was a bit surprised to see this coming out of ASUS, as the logical conclusion to designs like this is the complete commoditization of the motherboard. I think, however, they got things right in that the current specifications on case&#x2

The version you're seeing is the freemium version of TurboTax. While it says it's free, it's attempts to upsell you into paying for filing. The version that propublica is talking about is actually free for the whole service.

I think you're looking at this number and coming to very poor conclusions. TFL says daily ridership is 5MM people, and based on your figures, daily advertising revenue is 390k GBP. That means that for every 1000 users, they're ea
