Daniel Craig certainly gave new life to a tired franchise. Prior to him it had become too stupid and cartoonish. 

Depends on your viewpoint. All of my friends agree with me. We're first generation Bond fans who watched Connery and Moore in theaters. None of us like the vicious, thuggish Craig Bond.

In the 80s and 90s, I did prefer trackballs over mice, finishing with the Microsoft Trackball Optical. Then I bought the Fingerworks iGesture multitouch trackpad. After that, the Magic Trackpad. Haven't looked back. Paired with Bettertouchtool, it gives me an incredible amount of options and control. And anyone who says trackpads are imprecise doesn't know how to use one. When you need to move the cursor just a bit, don't drag your finger. Roll it on the surface like you're being fingerprinted.

Thanks, but no thanks, Logitech. I'll stick with my trusty Griffin Powermate.

Who makes these kinds of criminally horrible decisions like investing $160,000,000 in windows phone just 2 yrs ago? Unreal. 

According to reports, the decision for the entire department was made by one and only one person:

Seeing as how Apple doesn't have dominant market share for smartphones in China, it can't be called a monopoly. Case dismissed.
