This isn't such a bad thing. Wasteful with his money, maybe, but I'm sure he has more than enough. And though some will think negatively of him for it, what's so bad about it? He's not breaking the law or screwing anybody (except perhaps the DMV) ou…

The UPS finally arrived at 8:30 PM though. Was it irritating to wait so long? Of course, but mostly because I was stuck waiting at the door the entire day to sign for it. I can't imagine somebody going, "What?! A few hours of activation problems …

It kind of sucks for the people like Wayne. Even if they say they don't regret it, you know it still has to sting. Then again, hindsight is 20/20 and it's not until the last 10 years that Apple became the company it is now.

Sony and Microsoft sold their hardware at a loss, but Nintendo never sold hardware at a loss (though the 3DS might be the exception). Nintendo makes money on everything. The 3DS isn't doing well, but neither did the Gamecube. Back then, people cr…

I find it amusing that people predict doom and gloom for Nintendo because of a lackluster debut. It's as bad as the people thinking Apple is doomed whenever something doesn't go as well as expected (I.e. iPhone 4's problems at launch). The Wii is th…

As others have said, Nintendo is a hardware company. Saying they should make games for other platform is akin to saying Apple should license OS X to other manufacturers. Not gonna happen. The 3DS is off to a disappointing start and probably won't e…

Wait, Google is trying to SUPPRESS information? I thought they were all about open. OPEN! Open always wins! Remember that, Google? What, was that just a saying fabricated to dupe open source zealots? It's amusing when people go, "Google still isn…

People, many who would probably be considered more significant, have left Apple before. The OS X guy, Andy Rubin to name a few. People move on. If somebody near the top who wasn't expected to leave does, then maybe that's a cause for concern, but I …

I don't fault Google for preaching openness while being, as one might say, DRACONIAN. They're a business whose primary interest is to make money, and if they want to take advantage of the people who blindly believe that Google's a humanitarian chari…
