The Mac Mini is probably their easiest product to recycle. It is one of my favorite Apple products. If only they would make it more affordable.

Didn't I read just a few hours ago that Steve Balmer said Microsoft would be competing in all areas with Apple? That means manufacturing computers of all kinds. Now he is saying the Surface is just a design point. I think the man is insane. S…

Do you think he meant Microsoft will begin producing desktop and laptop computers? How can he say this and also mention working with their partners? He might as well walk up to his partners and say "We are going to gradually do all we can to under…

Where is the video camera? I thought the last generation with the video camera was a great idea. The only improvements I would have preferred would have been the ability to zoom in and out. If it had a touch screen then one could use gestures to d…

If this is true then it's just like the movie about Ford stealing the intermittent windshield wiper from an inventor. It was blatant and evil. How long do such suits take to get through a court to a conclusion? Will this take more than a year to g…

Individual citizens of the USA who work overseas must pay income tax on any money they earn while abroad. It isn't fair at all. Any technique to avoid paying taxes that is legal should be utilized by individuals and corporations. Some regula…

The Microsoft Surface is the future of computing. Even if it fails as a device it is the direction all tablets are going. The Wacom was out a long time ago and so were the Slates. Tablet computers will be on par with laptops in the near future. Fr…

Since Apple has dropped the EPEAT standard I decided to visit the manufacturer to whom I would go to as an alternative to Apple. They are System 76. They make high end computers for less than the other American manufacturers because they use Linux…

Apple is disappointing me again. Just as I was swaying back to perhaps purchase a Mac Book Air due to software needed for work, I learn about this removal from the EPEAT standard. Environmental impact is important to me. The ability to repair…

Do any Android owners feel unsafe when going to the Android Ap locations? Has Google ever mentioned that they look into malware at all in the Android Marketplace?

By the end of the year is a really big time frame. By October or September would be a bit more useable. I'm giving Apple until the end of September before I purchase something else in this size range.

Where is the question "Would you be more likely to buy an Apple computer?" This is a question I've wondered about. Has the iPod revolution and iPhone revolution brought people to the Apple computer market? As far as hating a company just for …

Bob Mansfield has done an excellent job. The engineering in the laptops seems to be very well done. The Mac Mini is pretty good. I've read that the iMacs get too hot and that bothers some people. Maybe the new guy will have the balls to tell Johnn…

I have used an original iPad and then tried the iPad 2. The iPad 2 had quicker response and a better feel. So why nag about Android getting an update that makes it better? It is probably true for many people that their older Android device was not…

Building any type of long term business in Nevada or other desert states in the west is foolish. They already have a water supply problem. When it gets worse there will be rationing all of the time and eventually it will need to be trucked in. May…
