Quote: Originally posted by JeffDM The practical max throughput of "54mbps" wireless is more like 20Mbps. That is barely enough for full ATSC. That assumes a good link. Still, I think 1080p 24fps is just as doable at 20Mbps with MPEG-2. AT…

Large retail boxes were hard to change to small, because larger boxes meant more "frontage" devoted to the product, making it easier for the consumer to see on the shelf. Manufacturers were reluctant to downsize because it meant giving up frontage …

Now that would be Apple's style! Launch an Apple Wireless Network so their laptops can connect anywhere the network goes. Just boot up, and BAM, you're online. Not add-ons, like wireless phones are now, but built-in, integrated, part of the OS...…

Quote: Originally posted by aegisdesign What amazes me about the stupidity of Apple's competitors here is that they aren't going after the iPod users as a market. The biggest market is the existing userbase, not trying to convert new people to yo…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross I'm happy you agreed with my last point, considering how I spelled it. The question is always of balance. I've been on a lot of juries over the years, though never on a large civil case. One of the first…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross This the point that I'm trying to make though. It's easier to "prove" to a jury that you have made your case than it is to a judge. I'll, of course, admit that this isn't always going to be true. The case a…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross It doesn't prove your point because juries are known for giving awards when the expectation is that they won't. This is why I say that these cases should be heard before a judge, rather than before a jury. …

Quote: Originally posted by melgross Yes, but batteries are different. They are internal. The main issue there was their lifetime. While I didn't look, because I don't have one, I don't believe that Apple had said anything on its site or in its i…
