    Richard Stallman Warns Against Nonfree DRM'd Steam on Linux

    You make points that are hard to argue with, and I agree with you 100% on this one. I think, as a Linux user myself, it's great to see more games coming to Linux. Free games are great, but generally speaking I find paid games to be better still, after all, 'the workman is worthy of his hire."...

    The Android Dilemma - An Open Platform Open to Piracy?

    "But thanks for posting irrelevant information as usual." My point wasn't your point, about customization but the fact that everything your talking about is mute because, like iOS, Google in a few years time Google plans to bring Android totally in-house, just like iOS, and it won't be...

    The Android Dilemma - An Open Platform Open to Piracy?

    As far as Android being open, well it's not nearly anywhere as open as Google will have you believe: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2011/08/study-android-is-least-open-of-open-source-mobile-platforms/ After ignoring Apple's IP, Google's goal was basically make it dominate...

    Valve Confirms Steam Client for Linux is in the Works

    And don't forget to remember who told you about Steam coming to Linux first! Seriously, even though I'm not a gamer per say, I am a Linux user and I do think that this is great news all around.

    Should Linux Users be Worried About 'Secure Boot'?

    I don't like this one itty-bit!

    Microsoft Announces $39.99 Upgrade Promo Pricing for Windows 8

    I agree! Even though Windows 8 has its good points, I think that it`s much too radical for me, and I suspect that it`s the same for many others as well. Tablets seems like a better fit, but as a desktop I`ll stick to Windows 7 which, frankly, I like a lot, and the only MS OS that I`ve ever cared...

    Dell Updates its XPS 15 and XPS 14 Notebooks

    I'm not sure about the quality of these things, though I've heard a few horror stories, but at least in the good-looking department they do indeed look great.

    Microsoft Announces Branded 'Surface' Tablets

    Really? You mean Android and iOS tablet are not real computers, but somehow Windows 8 RT tablets, based on the very same hardware, are real computers? Get real..... Windows had full, so-called real PC spec tablets selling (poorly) for over 24 years now! What makes you think that suddenly...

    Microsoft Announces Branded 'Surface' Tablets

    NO! Google might charge nothing for Android, but most mobile OEMs, other than Apple and Samsung, are NOT making any money. BGR reports: "According to Raymond James analyst Tavis McCourt, Apple accounted for a staggering 80% of all mobile industry profits last quarter and Samsung was...

    Microsoft Announces Branded 'Surface' Tablets

    Actually, it wasn't me that said "it wasn't a gamer changer", but rather it was others, like Adam Hartung, in the link. Tim Cooke acknowledge that Microsoft could be a contender, but I will personally wait until its been on the market for awhile before I make my final decision. Personally I...

    Microsoft Announces Branded 'Surface' Tablets

    Microsoft's late entry to touch tablets looks good on paper, but until it actually hits the market there are still too many lingering questions. As good as it looks, some don't consider it a game changer, but that it may be only skin deep. Personally, I like the Metro Interface on a tablet...

    Is a 2880x1800 Resolution Worth Getting Excited Over?

    I can see your point, but my point is that it won't be long before you don't have to do that, as companies will adapt quickly just as they did for the iPhone 4S and the new iPad. As you can see, companies, like Google, are already beginning to respond by updating their products such as Chrome:

    Is a 2880x1800 Resolution Worth Getting Excited Over?

    PC Magazine wrote: "If there's any drawback to the Retina display, it's that all of your existing Mac applications will have to be updated for it (kind of like what happened with the iPhone 4/4S and latest iPad). Apple-sourced apps like Safari, Final Cut Pro, and Aperture look terrific, but...

    Chrome OS (version 19) Gets Tested

    Chrome OS looks interesting. It's novel, but it will need a lot more work to ever interest me. Besides, I don't know I can really trust Google with my personal information, and this is just one more tool at their disposal.

    Is a 2880x1800 Resolution Worth Getting Excited Over?

    I've seen Chrome on this thing, and guess what? It looks the damn same as it does on any other Macbook, Windows, or Linux 15 " laptop! However, it's only when you compare Chrome with an updated Retina version of Safari does Chrome, etc. look like crap. Rest assure, FireFox and Chrome, Opera will...

    Apple Releases First MacBook Pro with 'Retina' Display

    Beautiful laptop, maybe even the best yet, but sadly, for most people, just like myself, it's completely out of reach price wise. Oh well, I could always buy a lotto ticket and dream, can't I? :(

    Consumer Reports Updates Tablet Charts; Places New iPad at the Top

    What's most important is what actually owners think of their products, their satisfaction ratings if you will. According to the first major survey done by Changewave, owners are not only extremely pleased or satisfied with the new iPad, but consider it better than the previous two versions...

    Is the iPad 2 Better than the New iPad?

    It's one thing to disagree with another persons views, but it's another thing entirely when a person goes on to PERSONALLY ATTACK another human being, like you do with me, all the time, it just goes to show just how IGNORANT AND IMMATURE you really are, and you are, aren't you?
