Keeping the CD in the drive to play seemed acceptable to me. Product keys in a user manual weren't so bad. I always made sure I had my original packaging. I could compare it to registering an account and having a persistent internet connect

That's exactly how I felt about Diablo. After waiting for so long then waiting longer still just to connect online (NZ bandwidth isn't exactly the best), I got far too frustrated to continue playing.

sigh I'll need to create an Origin account and always be online to play this, right? I miss the days when we could simply install a game. The only validation being a product key.

I guess I'm the only one hoping for a smaller iPhone.

For simply organizing music, iTunes is pretty solid. I think once you start introducing the iTunes Store, iOS device syncing and iCloud it all goes to hell.

Ok so this is like a lifestream? I remember lifestreams being huge a few years back when twitter just started to really kick off. When I say huge, I do mean in my little circles.

That's a nice side project. I can see this being useful. Can I ask if the site looked this good on the very first release or have you gradually improved it since its first post 10hr release?

Thanks. I find these full blown templates invaluable in prototyping.

I for one am a fan of the Metro look. Whether I'd ever use it on a client's site, that I can't say but for my own creations I simply adore the look. Awesome work! Can you maybe point me towards any other metro UI libraries you may have foun

I'd love to see this as a webapp. I'm one of those folks that just doesn't use apps or even sign in to my apple account. I'm sure more of my kind exist. EDIT: Whoops I see this has paid in-app purchases. I wonder if there's something out th

Gorgeous. Can't wait to use this on a project.

I don't know. I have trouble reading text on these white backgrounds. More now than ever before. This might be the dumbest question but is there a system performance benefit in using grayscale?

I just noticed the "Sign in" link on the top left. Clicking that opens up a windows popup with Mozilla's new Persona login feature. I didn't enter my email address but instead closed the popup. Yet the site refreshed and shows: "You are sig

Like Microsoft they also seem to embrace responsive design.

As a regular phone user I would have a vast array of options. My biggest need is email and the browser. I like to think with every new update the overall experience will improve. I wonder if there's a market for an email only device?

Yes, they really are embracing the whole 'responsive' thing. Does anyone else chuckle when seeing conditional comments for IE on a microsoft site?

Can the same be said of Adobe? I've noticed Adobe releasing quite a few web based technologies recently. Brackets and Edge being two examples.

This is what keeps me from android. I'm sure there are other android phones out there that receive updates but until I do a fair amount of research I won't know for sure. My days of carefully researching device purchases are behind me. I ju

Ah such tales are so entertaining. There was a brief period here in New Zealand when I'd receive a few of these kinds of calls. Folks in my Computer Science class considered it a badge of honor to receive a call and troll the scammer. It's

How does google stack up against Facebook in numbers? I don't mean Google plus specifically but I've always been under the impression that anyone signed up with Facebook probably has a gmail account.

Yes this is annoying but not on the level of Microsoft. Some apps are only available in the U.S. App Store. If you switch stores to say, New Zealand then you lose access to those apps. But iTunes does allow you to easily change stores and d

A smaller iPhone the size of the current iPod Nano would be nice. I just can't figure out a solution to the keyboard input problem.

To make it worse, delayed horizontal scrolling on my iPhone 4. I used an iPhone 3G up until the 4S was released. At that point it was pretty unusable. I guess I have one release to go before the same happens to my iPhone 4.

So do Retina apps mean we now have to deal with larger software packages, even if we don't have retina displays?

This is great! I've been telling my father to try something similar for Geology since textbooks are incredibly expensive in Fiji.

I have a system whereby I email tasks to myself and setup a filter to automatically dump those tasks into a special folder. I do the same as a "Read It Later". I know its not the same level of complexity as this product but I always liked e

Interesting business model. I don't think I'd ever trust Megabox enough to install their applications on my computers.
