Am I the only one who finds the trendoid obsession with wireless devices annoying? My keyboard sits on my desk, about 45 centimeters from my computer. The only times I've moved it in the past 10 years have involved coffee spills. With the excep…

So it turns out the fundamentalist Windo-philes were right all along: Apple is primarily interested in producing gorgeous high-profit consumer gadgets and doesn't take the needs of IT pros seriously. OS X Server has long been the neglected ste…

iOS 4 did exactly what the article describes to a huge number of users. I ending up restoring dozens of them a week for months in a futile attempt to keep users from losing their minds. Any corporation in danger of becoming #1 inevitably screws …

Ballmer's nonstop BS is as nauseating as it is quintessentially Microsoft. "I think you clearly have a lot more variety than Apple has..." For example, Microsoft offers a plethora of versions of its operating system, all of which are insecur…

Note that Apple no longer mentions Microsoft. Note that Microsoft now can't shut up about Apple. Not even when the product being discussed is not competing with any product of Apple's. It's remarkable how often people in charge of vast resour…

And now for the ad where the fat chick in ratty sweats tries to read her single-purpose, slaved-to-Amazon Kindle in low light, and her potato spouse rants about how many cases of beer he bought with the money he saved getting a yellow legal pad rath…

I've given up trying to make my iPhone 4 antenna fail. I squeeze it in both hands, turn it around, stick in my armpit... Its reception remains constant. After all this hype, it's terribly disappointing to have spent $300 and have nothing to c…

Oh look! It's the Kin II! Assuming $100M of similar derivative hype per month, should we assume it'll vanish forever five months after it appears?

How profoundly American to believe that excellence is a function of the aggressive application of enough money.

Apple can be forgiven for not policing fraud adequately, given the vast resources they dedicate to suppressing porn. Given that their heads explode as the result of exposure, providing children a safe, sexuality-free world must be every company's h…

Rumor has it that only review units have this problem, and that what they're shipping is gorilla-fied on both sides.

Well, if we're actually going to take this pixel-picking click bait seriously... "...18 inches from the eye, much farther than standard use for a mobile handset." Curious, I picked up both my handheld and a tape measure, repeatedly, standing, …

"...another embarrassment for Apple." Certainly this impacts Apple customers, but wouldn't this more rightly be regarded as an embarrassment for AT&T?

Now what's become of all the screaming Adobe fanatics? You know, the ones who a few days ago were eviscerating Steve Jobs for doing the same thing, but bluntly and without all the corporatese? "In the new experience we are taking the content out…

I assume the apology is as much a joke as the ad.

Enough of these tedious technical details. Will they offer porn?

Forgive me, but today's software reviews resemble nothing so much as précis of press releases. Writers now seem to automatically accept the product on its on terms, making significant criticism unlikely. Imagine architectural criticism where the …

Another Microsoft self-referential ghetto interface from the company that never met a feature it could resist. As usual, they're too interested in making OS X resemble the Windows version of the product, and dominating rather than cooperating with …

Once we thought no one could ever exceed Microsoft's mastery of the blivet market. Then Adobe came along and sold 10 lbs of excrement in a 5 lb bag for three times the price, and blew us all away. Their endless, pointless mastication of their ow…
