Apple Snags Former Xbox Exec
nandemoari sends along word that Apple has picked up Richard Teversham, a senior Executive from Microsoft's European Xbox operations, ending his 15 years of service to Redmond. Some press accounts assume that Teversham's role may lie in beefing up the games scene on the iPhone and iPod Touch. Forbes goes farther, opining that Apple "appears to be preparing an all-out assault on the handheld gaming market." Other reporting associates the hire with Apple's recent buildout of chip-design expertise.

Linux just isn't ready for the microwave oven yet. It may be ready for the toasters that you nerds use to distribute your toasted bread and bagels across the world wide web, but the average microwave user isn't going to spend months waiting for toast to toast and then hours compiling meals so that they can get a workable graphic interface to check their food with, especially not when they already have a Windows microwave oven which does its job perfectly well and is backed by a major corporation, as opposed to Linux which is only supported by a few unemployed chefs living in their mother's basement somewhere. The last thing I want is Gordon Ramsay (haha) providing me my OS.
Every year Santa comes down my chimney. There is no other excuse for the toys being there on Xmas morning. I speak here purely from the standpoint of a guy who likes toys and cannot be swayed by your technical crap disproving the existence of elves and flying deer.
I'm just glad he doesn't try to talk to me.

About the same as an iPhone, then?
And Sony slapped handlebars onto a SNES controller and called it a Playstation controller. But hey, you think that's bad, take a look at all these automakers blatantly plagiarizing the four wheels/two doors design.
