All successful business men/owners are heartless, cunning, kill-or-be-killed entrepreneurs when it comes to 'business'. Steve and Bill are included in this (read any reports on how they ran their companies). That said outside of the business worl…

Some of you guys crack me up getting bent out of shape over this. AT&T doesn't love you so don't feel you have to defend them. Verizon's commercials are a brilliant example of using advertising half-truths and smart omissions to make a statem…

It almost looks unbalanced. The structure is tall, has partial walls on the inside with nothing on the upper 2/3, and just looks sparse. I think the interior layout works in mall stores with a lower ceiling but here the inside looks more like an …

What a loaded Poll Sure XP is a dinosaur that was/is garbage in regards to security, usability and UI design while Vista was a true "bag of hurt" out the gate but I can say MS finally did a good job on an OS launch with Win7. Vista was probably…

While I find it hilarious some of you get your panties in a bunch anytime someone dares give it back to Apple there are solutions for you Pre owners out there (I should know I own one) 1. Have to use iTunes? Don't update! 2. Freakin' use drag-n-…

I gave up on Aperture and moved to LR2 awhile ago and have no issues with it. Adobe seems to be on the ball when it comes to compatibility updates and they already have the beta for v3 out now for download. (I still have to try it) It just felt l…

Mossberg: Apple's iMac, MacBook 'evolutionary, not revolutionary' Bread tastes better in pairs. See I can state the obvious too!

Here, I fixed the title while adding 25% more foreboding: "School shoppers choose netbooks over Apple, for now.. DUN DUN DUNNNN!!!!!!!!"

The only reason my wife and I have the Pre is because we couldn't take AT&T's pricing, lack of signal in our area or extra fees for everything. If the iPhone were on verizon or Sprint (I get signal from both) I would have got the iphone... si…

I really thing we need to make a big distinction here as to matte vs glossy vs glassy. Matte: Low to no reflections/glare but diffuses light making the screen appear dull. Film can cause blurriness to text etc as well but fingerprints/smudges etc…

09 MP rebooted twice then smooth sailing after a rather long boot. Everything seems silky smooth now. (and thank you for finally fixing the resolution problems!)

While I can't deny that I hold disdain for Mr. Ballmer (Does any other CEO come across like a schizophrenic without meds?) he does have a point to some degree about market share. Until Apple or anyone else can make a dent in their corporate and ente…
