I am huge ThinkPad fan. That is one exception that I was thinking of mentioning, but really, ThinkPads (NOT Lenovo in general) do not appeal to the average consumer. They are built great, and I have owned a few, but to everyone but the tech

Post starts with: I’ve been following every single article, video, or meme mentioning Google Glass since its first demo video a few months ago. Google promised a lot; Glasses were meant to be something like “an augmented brain.” It would o

In 2008, when the Eee PC was revolutionizing the computing world and driving every manufacturer to make cheaper and smaller laptops, Sony washed its hands of the whole thing. The "race to the bottom," the company said, would profoundly imp

The 3gs is actually free with a 2-year contract. I understand where you're coming from, and I'm not denying the fact that Android offers a wider range of devices in different price ranges. I just don't like this concept that many people see

Where did you get this idea that Android is more affordable? Compare similar spec'd Android devices to the iPhone and they cost just as much as, if not more, than the iPhone. Example: iPhone 4s 16gb AT&T - $150 subsidized HTC One X AT&#

I assume you are referring to the Apple 27" display listed here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC914LL/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ You do realize that it is 27" with a 2560x1440 resolution and it uses an IPS panel, right? That doesn't come che

I know that in some cases it is not an option, but middle-clicking will open the link in a new tab. One of the best shortcuts I ever learned.

Just to clear things up, that's 40M people logged into a Skype client, not simultaneously video chatting.

Skype is used worldwide. So when you look at it as 0.589% of the world population, it seems a bit more realistic.

Why do we need a Photoshop or InDesign killer? I have never heard any designers complain about Photoshop, or any of the top Adobe products (Illustrator, InDesign, Fireworks) for that matter. Flash is definitely on it's way out, but Adobe is

Your second point makes it seem like there are so many laws that you have to be aware of to avoid getting your domain seized by the US. These latest busts have been for gambling and pirating, I bet the owners knew this was coming sooner or

In many cases, like downloading movies, I agree. But with Windows, I couldn't disagree more. I used to pirate every version of Windows I owned, back in the days of Windows 98 and up to Windows XP it was a breeze. Starting around Windows XP

If you can tell the difference between 192kbps and 320kbps in a blind test, I would say that is impressive. I'm a musician and I have a few "audiophile" friends that say they can tell the difference, but when we conducted a blind test, they

RAM is actually 512MB. Which is rather low by today's standards. But as long as they strip the Android OS to run only what is needed, not like the bloated crap that's coming from the major carriers, it should be enough for most cases.

I may have misunderstood your first point but one of the primary reasons Apple is purchasing so many screens is to purposefully reduce the amount of components on the market to block out competitors from reaching demand.
