Something strange was going on. I went to update my iPhone. Connected to my computer and told it to download and update. Estimated time to completion: 12 hours. So, I let it run for an hour to see if it got better. It didn't so I canceled that…

If this bill actually requires this for smartphones, then I am wondering what all of the next batch of phones will be called. Because, I am guessing that within a year nobody in the world will be making smartphones. Perhaps, ultra mobile cellular …

I am afraid that the change in leadership at Microsoft doesn't seem to give Microsoft any more forward vision. Are these similar to the "I'm a Mac" commercials? Yeah, in a way. But in a much more important way they are nothing like the "I'm a Mac"…

Don't worry people. Cotes is a true upstanding political judge. I even heard she is thinking of retiring soon. After all, I am pretty sure that she has been told that she has a job as an Amazon lobbiest making ten times what she is making now.

But according to tech analyst Samsung is winning the cellular phone wars after all business thrive on market share and unicorn dander. All of these old stodgy things like profits and net income are highly over-rated. At least they are as long as App…

Interesting. My problem with Apple Maps has never been with the interface or backend, but with the data set and search (closely related to the data set). So, while I don't doubt that this complete overhaul will eventually yield something good, I thi…
