Given the shenanigans we saw with Chromecasts activating as tablets I have my own theory. Google has a hoard of Chromebooks it can't sell on it's floating barge "showrooms" that it has running continuously on the net to generate traffic. Now these "…

Actually, it was probably 800K Android bloggers who were paid to $449 to write a review on the $399 Gear and bash Apple on every message board they could find!!!!!

If you think that Google gets half the criticism and scrutiny that Apple does much less the level it deserves, I'd love to have the meds you are on. Until the tech blogosphere isn't beholden to Google's model of click advertising to make money, Goog…

So let me get this straight. Apple is under attack because it could theoretically re-engineer it's systems to read your iMessages when we know that Google is scanning your every email, instant message, contacts, browser history?!?! Apple needs to st…

What are the other specs of this screen? Is it a pentile resolution? OLED? Again Google wants to take one aspect of a screen and make it sound like it is better than an iPad because it has more pixels. More isn't always better!! What is the suppos…

This judge was never going to rule in Apple's favor. Not one media outlet thought the DOJ proved their case yet we get a guilty verdict.... What a farse!!!!! Look for it to be appealed and overturned on appeal. We will see how much money Bezos gave …
