From reading the source article from the SF Chronicle, it seems this is the same layoff we heard about last month, only now officially submitted to the state. This AI article makes it sound like it's an additional set of layoffs. "The layoffs were …

The HiFi debate has been going on for ages and it's not going to be resolved on this forum. That said, can't the deniers (for lack of a better term) just accept that maybe they can't hear the difference but other people can. Personally, I can't...…

While I'm sure this decision is mostly altruistic on Apple's part, after the recent press of these bus drivers' complains, Apple didn't really have a choice but do something like this. They have this reputation to uphold that sets them apart from th…

Yahoo doesn't even do their own search results anymore... powered by Bing since 2009. So, really the only search results in town are Google and Bing. Not much of a choice, the new evil empire or the old evil empire. Apple doesn't need to build the…

This was a bad idea from the beginning. Whether it was a deal with Apple, Microsoft, or Google, it was bound to have major issues. As was already said, the tech/environment just isn't there yet. In addition, in a district that has been struggling w…

When I look at that PC shipment graph, I think "hmm... traditional PC shipments are pretty much the same as 5 years ago." That's shipments, not PCs in use, which means new and replacement PCs bought*. Looking at the graph also makes me think, "hmm..…

You know, my first reaction was "damn, Apple still needs more experience with Internet services", but then I think about it and I'm not sure if I've heard of problems this frequent with iTMS or the App store. I can't imagine it's much different than…

Damn, is Cirrus Logic still around? I thought they died when Nvidia and ATI started making combined 2D/3D cards. Ahhh.... those were the days. IRQs and jumpers and video accelerator cards. You kids don't know how easy you have it now a days. Now ge…

one thing no one is mentioning: you can still get the old $30/mo prepaid plans. unlimited text and data (5gb @ 4G) +100 min... or 1500 min/text + 30mb data. That's way cheaper than any grandfathered iPhone plan. If you're not a power user, then thes…

Hmm... Marketing guy saying his product is better than the competitor, using some facts and some exaggeration. Slow news day, eh?

not that i'm defending the Surface Pro but changing the headline to... "Microsoft sells out of Surface Pro, just like the Xbox did in 2001" totally changes the perspective. Just saying.

Just like with "the social network" and "notorious", you have to know it's a movie first. Made to entertain. Certain things are going to be changed and/or exagerated to make it more interesting to watch by the "average" movie goer. Neither this film…

Of course Apple is considering it. They'd be foolish not to. But that doesn't mean it'll definitely happen. And guaranteed it won't be for at least 6-10 years. ARM just can't compete on performance with x86 (yet). And they surely wouldn't be hasty a…

Labor is where China shines. This is just the truth of it. But manufacturing can and must be done domestically. The Prez said as much. So, those A5 chips made in Texas ? good... but TSMC is in Taiwan. That's not so good. The solution? Apple builds …
