It's a 2nd hand account of a "my friend told me" anecdote published in newspapers which have, at best, an accidental relationship with the truth. I'm not saying it isn't true but given the messengers I'd be ast

There are those who reject persons of other races(1) among both the native-born and non-native-born but ignoring them, multiculturalism works very well. (1) Racist is a good shorthand term for these people, idiot is another.

What a feeble cop-out. Why do you feel it is important? After all if it is is important, you should be able to explain, in fact you are expected to do so.

The overwhelming majority of buyers use it as it comes out of the box so an out of the box comparison is the only fair one.

And IMMEDIATELY the fandroids come out and pretend that we should be talking about how bad Apple is. +1 for the comment somewhere about how dense Android fans appear to be. However bad you think Apple might be, Samsung is far, far worse, ju

"Intuitive" is the great misused word of our industry. The only intuitive things in human experience are fear of heights and the location of your mother's milk (I'm probably quoting but can't remember who). What peo

You are completely detached from normal practical realities, as such your beliefs on security can be safely disregarded.

Having a lock in your front door is not perfect but it is much better than not having one at all. The way that Apple haters use stunts like this to suspend normal logic and reasoning in order to express their juvenile spite is staggering. N

There wasn't a market before Apple and there probably wouldn't be one today if Apple, or someone of equal clout, hadn't created that market.

Why are the endless, tedious contribution like this not downvoted to oblivion as being offtopic? The topic is IOS 7, if you want to talk about Android start your own thread, failing that, take your witless preaching elsewhere.

I'm sorry, not following this, the word is "versus", a verse is typically something like a unit of a song. Or is this American usage, in which case what do you call a "verse"?

I said it wasn't authoritative, I said nothing about readability or openness, neither of which have anything to do with what is under discussion. I can provide plenty of UK links which refer to Down's syndrome.

They did not build DS into mice, they created one of its symptoms which they then reversed, hence my comparison to exaggerating the effects of sticking plasters. The mice did not have anything like DS and claiming this experiment as having

I'm not conversant with the 'international medical literature' so I shall assume you know what you are talking about. However, I don't take wikipedia as an authorative source on anything.

Headline grabbing from some researchers who are probably trying to preserve their funding. Some mice were genetically engineered to suffer brain shrinkage, this injection partially reversed that. Downs's syndrome is a genetic abnormali

A hint as thinking doesn't appear to be your strong point. If something seems to be "way too easy", even to you, perhaps they thought of it first. That might explain why this applies to purchases from Amazon only.

Google could not have adopted marketing like this without Nestlé's approval. Nestlé are truly vile and "do no evil™" are in some form of partnership with them, at the very least it is cross-promotion.
