The best description of VLC was that the icon is a traffic cone because it will actually play one. :)

This is what i'm wondering about. How will they deal with fragmentation besides going to the lowest common denominator?

But now they have a lot of people bitching about how the phone doesn't have LTE so it's not like it was known it'd be a total slam dunk. I'm a T-Mobile customer in the US though so i don't worry about stuff like that. ;)

I really like my Windows Phone 7 phone (OS more than phone) so i'm definitely going to upgrade to Windows Phone 8. I really like the design and some apps out there have some really nice live tiles.

When you start it up Microsoft even refers to it as a PC. It should be obvious to people that Microsoft sees this as the future of PCs and don't want them to think of it as a "tablet".

True. A lot of people felt the same about Win95. It's a good thing the tech world has short memories. :)

Office being offered for free for the RT tablet doesn't show that Office's value is zero, it shows that Office has enough value to sell someone on a Microsoft tablet. Also I think Microsoft putting more emphasis on their services which are

Agreed. Most apps in app stores are garbage. The Windows Phone 7 marketplace is getting more great apps by the day so i don't expect any less from Windows 8.

Zune does something similar to this. You put in 5 artists that you like and it tries to organize a 'picks' page with music relating to those artists. Unfortunately Smart DJ doesnt take multiple artists into the equation when generating a

I still remember a magazine showing how you can make Windows 95 look more like 3.1 by putting folder shortcuts on the desktop :P

Probably old 8XXX Curve owners. Blackberry 7 is perfectly functional and hopefully Blackberry 10 will be a hit for them.

The port is not the point of the article. The fact that two fans (not developers of the game) used their knowledge to have it play at a higher resolution with other adjustable effects and break the framerate cap. The making it 'whole' spe

Don't forget that when the IPhone happened Apple intended any "applications" to be web applications which is why they spent so much time on getting mobile Safari right. It was the developers who demanded local apps and settled for the clos

I think the hardware is great for the new IPhone. I think the real problem is that they are now going to have to really create compelling software as Google is catching up. They also really need to rethink the user experience a bit. Some

This all-in-one is ok but their Z1 workstation is actually pretty nice. It actually has easily accessible internals.
