I was about to write basically the exact same comment. I am a product of several AP classes, followed by an education at a top 10 engineering school. All of my AP classes allowed me to save thousands of dollars in tuition by graduating ea

Does anyone know how Apple is able to get away with this, when Microsoft was under so much antitrust litigation in the late 90s for simply bundling their internet browser?

"only one possibility: that B.S. Bernanke is secretly (and illegally) counterfeiting U.S. dollars -- and using those bogus dollars to prop up the U.S. Treasury market." Really? Something has to be done with wealth. While the U.S. has a su

Waiting for a market to mature before entering isn't the end of the world. As far as "cornering" a market goes, Wikipedia's example is perfect: "Large companies, such as Wal-Mart or Microsoft, are considered to have cornered their markets

While I agree that his jab at Drupal is off base, because I don't agree with this article in general. Drupal does make extensive use of classes in its templating system, so I can see why the author would have a problem with it. I see the c

As the owner of a CrossFit gym, I can also verify this. Our business model is built around getting people to show up to the classes, and in any given week we have around 90% of members showing up. In one of the larger gyms (24hr, Lifetime

I agree with this article. I was actually thinking about this earlier today and amazed at all the backlash. There is a trade-off between form factor and upgradeability. I suspect (and I'm sure they did their homework) that a large percenta

No, I believe most of the reviews were from first (or second) time yelpers. I can understand where they're coming from on a macro scale, but at the individual business level, it can be irritating.

Of course it doesn't show weakness. It MAY show that there are some internal cultural changes going on at Apple, but I'm not even convinced of that. Let us not forget the "Think Different" campaign from the late 90s, which featured famous

While I don't necessarily agree with the way Microsoft has this setup, they aren't preventing you from backing up. They're preventing you from using THEIR software package to backup to an external drive. You can use any number of free or
