Will have to see. Apple has always been litigation heavy to protect their products, but I agree. Articles like this one don't provide much encouragement though!

DJ SHAH tends to have some good stuff, and as usual that one was good. Enya shouldn't need any introduction, although I think there were better tracks from her to relax by... then I saw Coldplay's Strawberry Swing, that got a laugh as it's an oddball song to throw in there. Coldplay's...

I think my post was completely misunderstood. My point was that Steve Job's loss likely caused a spike in sales. Given Apple saw a universal increase in all categories across the board, I'm almost sure of it. Such things have happened before in history when a well-known, respected person...

Interesting... makes a sort of sense though, oddly enough. Given just how much money those guys were making off the site they probably had a ton of free time to kill. As a side note, it is interesting that Filesonic and FileServe both have pulled link sharing from their sites. They only allow...

Given the rather sudden passing on of Steve Jobs (of which Rick Perry has yet to learn, apparently) occurred last quarter, it will be interesting to see just how Apple performs for Q1 this year. It was surprising to see so many of Apple's not as substantial market segments "explode" like they...

I wish I knew. If you remember OCZ (as with half the industry) switched from 34nm to 25nm NAND in the middle of the SF-1200 heyday, and all the problems seem to originate with the new 25nm NAND drives. People that have owned the 2010 drives which used 34nm NAND still have working V2's.... so I'm...

Saw this today, was pretty appalled really. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227551 Out of the first ~30 verified owner reviews, nearly 2/3rds had one (or multiple) drives die on them. And that was just out of the most recent entries. There's a horror thread on...

I have STO on my Steam account, the total local file size is exactly 10GB. What is weird is STO doesn't appear to be hosted on Steam anymore, looks like all the STO listings have been removed completely. Not sure of any tips to help with your installer issues, other than the basic...

STO will use 10GB on disk... that's a good bit more than 3GB :D

Pretty much, yes. Lamar Smith has had a hand in or directly introduced quite a few of these bills. Until he's finally voted out of office he will continue to create and co-sponsor this legislation or bills like it.

Given some of the evidence behind the Fed's case, I can totally understand the take down. This case is nothing like Youtube and all those music videos... there was some genuine piracy and profiteering going on with that site...

I was floored to read that. But the bills are not completely dead, it's just a matter of time before they resurface as part of some new bill. I was totally amused to hear all four remaining Repub candidates denouncing SOPA though, they wanted nothing to do with it... :D

Intel's revenue has always dwarfed IBM's... keep in mind most of the servers IBM builds are based around Intel's own chips these days, too. Fourth Quarter 2011 Apple - $28.27 Billion Intel - $13.9 Billion IBM - $5.49 billion Apple sells multiple devices to individual consumers, and...

No way... have you used Blockbuster recently? Why would someone pay $4 + gas driving to/from the store to view a movie once, when they can buy the DVD online for a few bucks more? That's what killed Blockbuster, cheap widely available DVDs. There's a reason why Blockbuster (And competing) stores...

Is this why? Link to Newegg All those products say Lamptron, let are listed as 1st PC Corp on the manufacturer. They say Lampton on the product, though. 1st PC Corp redirects to http://www.1stpccorp.com/ which does not appear to be related to the Lamptron website in any way?

I don't understand the business sense behind this at all. Unless Intel figures they make enough margin on the 3960X that $30 is enough to fork over a replacement for each one sold and that the PR is worth it...

STO was advertising F2P for almost six months... but it did not go free to play until a couple days ago. ;)

Never seen one in the US, but that doesn't say much. What I can say, is that around 2000 malls universally had 1-2 bookstores, and 2-3 music stores + 1-2 enterainment/video stores. Today none have bookstores and are lucky to have 1 music store. Most of the ones I've visited recently don't even...

I suppose, but I would suspect if that was the case any "golden key" or master code wouldn't be kept online at all. Why would it need to be in the first place? These companies make plenty of stupid decisions, but they aren't completely inept. To me this seems like the safest option I've seen...
