Would someone tell again just what it was that Google bought for 1.6+ BILLION dollars in stock? What a stupid way to blow some serious cash, There is not a single person on the planet that didn't see these copyright problems coming.
If they are looking for ways to dispose of surplus cash I would like to submit my cause.
I can't draw or perform and I'm not hungry so I'm not a 'starving artist' but I would love for them to push some cash my way. I would be a much better investment. They could give me cash and I would just go away.
I'm not sure that the problems from YouTube will do the same, so I am a much better investment!
The fact of the matter is that the analysts were expecting the usual drop in the price of Apple stock following the financial disclosure. It happens every quarter.
Well it didn't happen this time. With Macworld coming up the anaylists were hoping for a price drop in order to buy up and sell off when Macworld arrived.
I expect we'll see several attempts to deflate the Apple ballon before Macworld since it didn't happen of it's own accord this time.
Greedy bastards, always playing games and coming up with crap just to move the stock price.
It appears that the whole complaint is that Intel is trying to enforce a License and someone is complaining that you can't get something without a license so that they can distribute it.
This is my whole complaint about the opensource community. They scream to the Heavens that everything should be free as if it is a basic human right. Intel is a for-profit corporation. I can't fault them for trying to enforce a licence on a product they designed and sold, a license with attempts to maintain the quality standards of their product.

I think Michael Dell should close the doors and return the money to the investors.
You can blame him on me. I love the guy :)
