For almost every release of Windows it seems Microsoft has arbitrarily moved important and commonly used features around. Windows 8 is a larger visual overhaul but really not a huge departure from the typical musical chair sort of changes

It stifles innovation and prevents competition I disagree. iOS is not the only mobile platform. It's not even the most popular one. Apple keeps an eye on other platforms and when something works they implement a similar feature. Their cus

If people want to buy a managed platform that is their choice. No organization with the word 'freedom' in their name should be actively trying to take choices away from consumers. That's just bizarre. It's like arguing StarBucks shouldn't s

If Apple likes your product, and they steal your features for their OS AirTunes came out in 2004 and AirFoil followed a year later as a software accessory compatible with AirTunes.

Not knowing anything about this individual I don't want to make too many assumptions but the broader point here is valid. The whole culture of 'hardcore gaming' is pretty creepy to me. There's a fine line between fun and mental illness. It'

This is a big problem with podcasting in general these days. If you want to listen to even 3 shows per week you could be looking at 4.5 to 5 hours worth of material. I would love to see 5by5 maybe splice up these shows into chapters or othe

It's funny how so people always assume there has to be horrible personal conflicts behind these things. In my experience people mostly move on because they think they have found a better opportunity for themselves. Hard to second guess peop

Not every standard is targeted to the mass market. TB is a high end niche. Nothing wrong with that. If you need the unique features or capabilities it offers price probably wot be a huge concern. The Mac alone will support this niche. highe

Very possible. I don't think there's any huge rush to get the iTV out the door. It could also be they plan to get started with 'off-the-shelf' components but hope to do some custom parts for later models or perhaps they've been working with

They wouldn't be buying any routers without the federal dollars to build fiber so it's kind of a moot point in this situation. Anyone who has worked in the private sector can tell you this type of stuff happens constantly. Too many technica

I'm surprised this article actually does a decent job covering both sides of the story. When you look at how flexible the ISRs are, and the likelihood these devices will be in service for probably the next 10 years or more, it's not not the

Interesting theory but I'm not convinced the nuances of the Samsung/Apple case support it. I'm also not sold that Apple has had enough success with the legal actions against Samsung to spur such a major hardware design change especially whe

Just another example of how out of touch the MPAA is with reality. Any 10Mbit+ connection is perfectly adequate for downloading pirated material. It very possibly might take an individual less time to download a torrent than to navigate som

Very often all I have is an iPhone and maybe an iPad. I don't do enough hardcore editing to justify carrying around a laptop anymore. So I would definitely welcome better text editing features on iOS even if it's not the best tool for the j

I'm usually inclined to believe Apple has some good reasons for doing what they do but this seems like it's crossing the line. The built-in functionality of iOS and the Apple ecosystem is fantastic, and it's understandable they are given pr

Google's inability to get new software into user's hands is definitely going to be a problem going forward. I'm actually surprised it hasn't burnt them worse already. Take ICS for example. It was a very good update for Android yet by the ti

I kind of do. I have an iPhone for personal use so I choose to have an Android phone for work. Not because I particularly like Android but simply because I'd like to have one to play around with. I'll probably swap it out with a WP7 device

They do. Cable modems are provisioned with multiple service flows much in the same way cable digital phone service works. I've seen this setup in a lab being run from one CMTS. The modem has a service flow for Internet (say 50Mbit/sec) and
