The Godwin's Law for the 21st Century: Blah blah blah TERRORISM! blah blah blah. I propose that video cameras be placed in doctors offices and residential fences be kept shorter than an average FBI agent's eye level so that poor prescription handwr…

People complain that Apple gives Samsung its business, but both Samsung and Apple are acting rationally by working together wherever they both benefit. Until Intel opens up its fabs to Apple (ha ha!) its great for Apple that Samsung's expertise in …

It may not seem to make sense that protester use Apple stores when Apple has nothing to do with the incident that is being protested. But it does makes sense. The sense is that Apple attempts to stand for the best in us. Its not that Apple has an…

I expect Apple would be happy to partner with MCX the same way they did with credit card companies, if MCX became popular and saved merchants money. But the merchants/MCX would have to give up their dastardly plots to track consumers.

Why would NFC be required for "in-app ApplePay compatibility". That makes no sense whatsoever: local wireless communication hardware is not needed for a software/internet only transaction! Clearly NFC is there to enable in-store ApplePay on iPads …

If Apple is taking as small of a cut as it appears, CurrentC should partner with Apple to achieve their goal of bypassing credit cards. Aside from that, I have to ask: Why would a customer want to use CurrentC? It looks like a way for retailers t…

Don't forget "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" and other early work. He does have range, but hasn't chosen parts that put it all out there recently. Good movies anyway.

You are free to chose your allegiance, but Apple's allegiance is quite simple: whichever manufacturer produces the parts that make the best iPhone. While Apple would probably move away from Samsung if its parts were on par with competitors, and th…

"Due to the success of the aggressive Windows notebook pricing during Back-to-School we could see a much more aggressive pricing strategy this holiday season..." Does anyone else see the self-destructive irony here? That should have read: Noteb…

Samsung has shamelessly and successfully copied a lot from Apple. I am heavily biased towards Apple on most things because I like their products so much. But trials still need to be fair. They always need to be fair, no matter what anyone thinks…

"the banks just don't understand basic math" LOL. It is not like there is a 100% barrier. Numbers greater than 100% occur all the time in all kinds of contexts. Also, the financial industry, like any other, often uses terminology slightly differe…
