I'm not supporting CISA, but I'd just like to ask: Is this any different than police getting a search warrant when there is probable cause? Would citizens be more comfortable if companies were to notify of data requests? I guess I can understand whe…

It's a neat idea. Networked news information stations and feeding that to a main reporter. Resolution aside...oh and the general crap of Fox News, let's give them some props for pulling this together.

No, Apple doesn't need Docomo. Docomo needs iPhone. They were stubborn and held their noses high for 5 years because they wanted to put their unneeded iMode shit on the phone and Apple refuses to degrade the experience that way. No crappy software m…

Apple is taxed on product sales around the world. Apple pays employment taxes around the world. If Apple centrally holds it's European profits in a European country, what's wrong with that? Apple was born in the US, but it manages international s…

It's more disconcerting that AI pushes these prices. What on earth are you talking about? 15" 2.7Ghz 768GB SSD Retina MBP(WITH Apple Care) is now $3,548 on the Apple Store website. How much is this B&H paying AI? $3321.0 is a $227 difference…

Imagine if Apple gained too much traction with the MacBook Air and then decided to move away from Intel processors again. That's why they drive the "Ultrabook" initiative. They don't want to be obsoleted by a design/technology shift from Apple. …

@drobforever retina is 2x the resolution, which is 4x the number of pixels. Yes, Android has many resolutions and developers piss and moan about it. You don't understand the craft of finely tuning a great app UI and then having to modify it for va…

Haha, awesome commercial. Still remains to see if it's a useful device. I'll never change, I don't even use my iPad that much. MacBook Pro ftw! ^^

Josh Rabinowitz, the actor, was incredibly adorable. The commercials highlighted the great things you can do with Apple and the great support system (the Apple Genius). The stories were cute and frantic, really out there. And people who were offe…

Saying IF Sony made an iPhone, what would it look like is saying if Sony made something which they in fact had never made. Therefore, there's no copying a non-existent product. Samsung is ridiculous, destroying documents and leaking court info. Ar…

I'm looking forward to Mountain Lion. For me, Mac is definitely improving. I'll take this over Windows anyway. I'm on my late 2008 MBP and it's still running. That's almost 4 years now. I sure would love a new MBP though. Even with…

Would you guys stop crying? Do you think Apple doesn't know what they are doing? Do you think Apple doesn't insanely test multiple prototypes first? DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT APPLE??? Pre-WWDC excitement is ok. Pre-WWDC rumors…
