I love the idea here of Chrome OS. Boot to web in a short amount of time. But here's how I see it. I don't think it will make a dent in MS, Apple, or any Linux pockets. I see this as a Secondary OS. Think, you turn on your computer, and you a…

Interesting concept. If it were to turn into something real, I hope they would find a way to make it reliable. Something like this sounds really gimmicky, especially when you have to take into consideration the differences in people's ears. My ho…

Last I checked, Apple has no stance in the web search market. So why is this here? Anyhow, I gave Bing a go once. Took me on average 5 clicks and one re-wording to get to what I wanted. Google it was usually in the first 3 results of the first…

As much as I don't like Apple, I hate to hear when their stuff gets stolen. No matter how hard you try to prevent it though, it will continue to happen. Just like people who pirate software. We should however, be able to track or identify these p…

I really don't like any of this. I have Verizon, but don't like the fact that their ads go for the jugular. Reminds me of political ad smear campaigns. Just like the "I'm a Mac / I'm a PC" ads that both Apple and M$ are producing. So here's an…

Good idea. Though couldn't one already log-on to the Apple website via the iPhone and request a reservation? I hope that with improvements to the retail space, it will be easier to get an appointment. I usually had to make an appointment early in…

I'll believe it when I see it. And so far, I see nothing. Of course, I will never buy one, but who cares. Many other people will waste hard earned cash on the device (and most likely those who have both an Apple laptop and iPhone). If it doesn't…

I don't see how this is truely "news" since Win 3.1 went after the GUI of OS 6. But since Apple stole some pages from the Windows book along the road, I really don't see how it matters. (And why do they now include support for MS Exchange and Wind…
