Pandora has a much larger catalog than your local record store. Pandora is amazing for music discovery, I'd say far better than the hipsters working in amoeba records that are seldom older than Jerry Garcia's guitars. I used to us

Why? The 4g network is tracking you via cell town triangulation the whole time anyway. Might as well use the phones wifi when you can save some bandwidth on the slower cellular network.

MS OS/2 2.0??? 2.0 was long after the split with MS, I think you mean IBM os/2. Also 32 bit programming had been around for a long time before Microsoft got around to it. Os/2 had protected mode 32 bit in 1992, and PC hardwar

I tuned out when I read "beautiful". If only writing something beautiful were as easy as picking the right word processor. I'm amazing that anyone would enter the word processing space when we already have dominant players wi

Lovely architectural and design elements, until someone ruined it with the stupid names. The serious design elements are really exquisite, it's a shame, the architecture & design team must cringe to see what Dropbox did with their

not projecting at all, that's like saying phrases have no meaning. It is juvenile, possibly it's an attempt at humor, but that doesn't detract from the silliness that comes from naming rooms that way.

That's interesting to read, beccause on my iPad 4 BS3 is very sluggish. Buttons visibly wait to show any change, menus the same. I don't have this problem with BS2. Maybe when it ships this will have been eliminated.

sounds to me like he was using his position to bully these guys away from pivoting. If he hadn't been an investor his opinion, like those of their other colleagues, would have gone unheeded. How is this not bullying? Personally I don&#

Part of the demise of MSFT has nothing to do with MSFT, the landscape in which they operate is just changing. I haven't used Windows in years, yet I used to develop on the Win32 API, I gave up with it when they released all that OLE no

He said Windows 7 was the dominant Enterprise Windows operating system, not 8. And this is correct, 7 is the domant enterprise windows deployment, XP having been recently retired in most Fortune 500 companies. Ask around any IT dept and you

if you're bypassing the ChromeOS by installing a full Linux stack then aren't you undoing the "just works" part and you're back to the same issue of "maintaining" an OS. And its a very expensive machine fo

Huge? Seriously? It's just a more efficient window manager. I don't really care much about the window manage, X has never been inefficient for me, my hardware is plenty fast enough. I think Mir is more likely a benefit for low end

So, you're saying... absolutely nothing, just being Linux fanboy. That's fine. So, it seems like you're agreeing with me, that Linus was making a tribute to windows? It's unclear what you're trying to say really.
