Last year there was a demonstration of the new Windows 8 by one of their engineers. It looked good. Everything was working fine. He did a desktop and touch screen demonstration. Has something changed since then? The demo didn't show programs openi…

For one job I was told that my Apple Safari browser on my Intel Mac would work at the company web site. It does sometimes. My boss told me that everything works best with IE8 or newer. The ORACLE software for logging time and doing training does s…

If Apple thinks of Apple TV as a hobby still then why would they build a TV set? I don't think Apple should build a TV set. Other manufacturers are doing that just fine. Apple should just make a super interface for the TV using the solution …

Any patent related to images on a screen are just stupid. Every image on a computer screen or TV is unique. Why not patent every possible combination of colors that can every exist? So somebody decides to post a pretty graphical interface on…

If they make something capable of running Jelly Bean with more features than the Nexus 7 some people will buy it just for that reason. Even if they have to root the system. A fully functional tablet with at least an equal screen resolution to the …

I like skyways. Such walkways should be utilized more often in crowded cities. I would like it if all of the bottom floors of buildings were used for parking and deliveries off the streets. Then the next level up could be the pedestrian level with…

The company I was working for last year was experimenting with the iPad. It was a stupid thing to do because it was being used in a cold environment. It would be taken inside and outside a few times a day. That will eventually lead to failure beca…

My spare computer came with Vista. After a virus I reloaded it and dual booted with Ubuntu. Ubuntu isn't perfect but it is amazingly faster than Windows Vista in everything it does. It is even faster than my Mac with a much better processor. …

Patenting appearance is such a difficult thing. Cars mostly look the same. Some are big and some are small. They all have doors, tires, windows, and windshield wipers. Where were the patent wars back in the beginning of the car age? So a phon…

I wonder how such a talented man can sit on a board and just say yes or no to company ideas and not want to jump in to help develop things. Wouldn't jumping in and helping be part of his nature? Maybe he is just an added figurehead who will only s…

How much time does Apple need to make twenty-million iPhones to have on hand at a launch? How many iPhones can fit into a 747 cargo plane? I would like Apple Insider to research this and give us the answers. That would be an interesting article.

Is Apple management adopting the Microsoft way of saying something and then taking it back? It's a start. Not a good road to go down. It's all about money. Why should Apple jeopardize the sales of existing EPEAT approved products just becaus…

I was one of the survey participants. They paid me $2. Many years ago I participated in a Nielson survey. It was all about television, TV Guide, and coupons for products. The recent one asked me to write in the names of my three favorite TV shows …

This is related to Apple because they make tens of millions of WiFi devices every year. I hope all cities do this. It enhances communication and productivity. They just need to ensure that there are enough connections available with enough b…

I don't think desktops are dead for everybody. I think they just need to shrink in size and become high performance media devices. Some desktops come with the option to have an HDTV card. That is a good idea. When manufacturers start making …
