From the graph it looks like Tablets will be consuming demand for desktop computers. Really? If someone asked me and I hadn't seen any recent data I would have suspected that sales would have been drawn out of notebook and netbook numbers a

Good luck being able to plan that, we tried to have two kids in two years but nature intervened; my wife became pregnant within two months of trying with our eldest and no matter what we tried it took four years for our second.

I knew about the worm but I'm not exactly a fan of the person so I had no idea he was a co-founder of Y Combinator. Next think I know you'll be telling me that a movie actress helped invent a torpedo guidance system.

I can see an objection to that, but it's pretty clear the NYT lawyers don't understand that they are sharing their content freely on the internet via the RSS feed and there's no coinbox on the front-end to gate it. This reminds me of compan

The comments on the article's page are amazing; they practically alternate between understanding what an RSS feed is to being completely oblivious to it. Is it a win for the NYT if I feel like I should register with them so I can comment on

"The Pulse News Reader app, makes commercial use of the NYTimes.com and Boston.com RSS feeds, in violation of their Terms of Use*." So according to their lawyers you can view their RSS feed as long as you haven't purchased the viewer? I thi

You could sum this up as, "Eat your own dog food."

I think the problem is that firms are coming out with something equivalent to what they thought the iPad was, not something which would excel the iPad's configuration. The only device I've seen that comes close is the WePad and it's too exp

I wonder if they're looking at injecting advertisement into the html stream? I know some cable companies replace your default search page when they find you've 404'd. It wouldn't be too hard to inject some pop-up scripts onto pages.

"Now, does anyone believe that dropping the keyboard and replacing Windows XP with Windows 7 will magically turn netbooks into a great experience?" No, but I bet the new Windows Phone OS' zune-like interface will work really well. I would b

Wouldn't then there be a market created where you weren't locked into these restrictions? In addition, how long will these cable monopolies last when we'll be able to erect wireless towers and get internet that way, completely superseding c

That was one of the best hours of my life I've spent all year. I've been researching adwords and online advertising for about six months now and I've learned more in that sixty minutes. Thank you!

"Either we force people to write only about the things that we think are worthy ..." Who determines what is worthy and what isn't? They already have this problem, expiring pages despite people protesting their validity.

"The real disappointment is the fact that the device is locked down and we'll never get the chance to use it to innovate the way we interact with our real computers." It's not a computer, though; it's a device. Apple doesn't want you to int

This actually makes me rethink George Lucas as being brilliant rather than stupid. It's also re-written the entire Star Wars saga in my mind for the remainder of my life.

No mention in the news of the fact that he is a commercial director and fx artist and has access to equipment (and the know-how to use it) worth 10s of thousands of dollars?

If you follow the link to the advisory board you will see they confirmed the earth was destroyed last year. There's a comments section to discuss the topic.

Yes, it's over-hyped as much as the Razor was but these days every kid on our block has a Razor and plays with it and I'm sure the netbook will become just as ubiquitous. No, it doesn't solve your problem but it's perfectly suitable in othe
