-1 for RAID just for security. This makes your SATA drive perform equal to the IDE drive for writes. Also, a periodic rsnapshot from IDE drive to SATA drive would give more security and from more vectors (data corruption through misbehaving software, human operator or hardware).
customers should be able to get that speed from any Internet site (network conditions permitting), not just sites which have payed the ISP for priority access.
Then you ARE a fan of so-called "net neutrality". Do you hate the terminology "net neutrality" ? You sure are for the concept behind it.
If AMD fusion graphics is enough for you, that is a good option. Tiny power supply can keep it happy, a slow fan would be enough, 90mm more than enough size for the fan.
If fusion graphics is not enough, it is unlikely to be "small", because graphics card would be big, it would need big active cooling, and power supply would be big to support it.
No your point was (at least what I quoted and responded to ) that anecdotal positive and negative evidence is equally invalid for a mass marketed device. That is seriously wrong. Anecdotal negative evidence is far less invalid, 99 times less invalid under the stated assumptions, than anecdotal positive evidence.
It is useless to stick to publically posting residential address point. It becomes dangerous only in conjunction with associating it with facebook profile and publically posting one's vacation plans on facebook.
No one is advocating keeping one's residential address private. But advertizing it along with other information becomes dangerous as is well studied.
One anecdotal working machine "doesn't really say anything" in the same way that one broken machine "doesn't really say anything".
Only if expected percentage of working machines is 50%. If that is your expectation, sure. Not mine though, given the $$$ they cost.
If the expected percentage of working machine is 99%, 99 anecdotal working machines "doesn't really say anything" in the same way that one broken machine "doesn't really say anything".
Basically you're saying that no one should have an entry in the whois database because we can't have nice things.
Having a "helpful" customer service which disregards security best practices when it is "convinced" of a genuine need is also a nice thing. Publically posting your residential address on facebook and publically announcing your holiday itinerary on facebook is also a nice thing.
And yes, we can't have nice things. "Having nice things" is the enemy of security, and even privacy. What is wrong in saying we can't have nice things? (Except that it is obvious.)
How is google drive more able? No linux client unlike dropbox. Unofficial client lacks basic features. Empty promises from Google for a long time are worse than no promises at all.
What does it have to do with security questions? If the name of your first pet was John, is there a law against specifying Meml02Sbu as the answer to that particular question?
If you actually answer John as the answer to such a question, YOU are asking for your accounts to be hacked.
Exactly. When such anti-competetive, anti-people practices are tolerated in the pursuit of consumer-stupidity-maximization, why do you expect an anti consumer-stupidity product like multi-function- set- top - box to be marketed ?
Wilfull ignorance gets you guys a lot of perks, I see.
There is no "primary device" . There is a device, it can or cannot do things. When it can't, saying that it can't is called truth. All this is in non-Apple-shill language.
Why would I give a different procedure? I would agree that pouring soda does't pop up files. And if there are other devices which support this intetface, they are clearly superior in this regard.
Most importantly , when someone points out a scenario when pour soda pop files interface would save money/time/effort, i would not invent meaningless terms to justify the extra money/time/effort spending. But then I don't get paid to shill so it is obvious.
Parent poster did not say flexibility should not come with "primary device"[sic]. He said iPad doesn't have that flexibility. Which you agree with.
Your eagerness to earn your shill salary made you see "primary" and "secondary" devices into it. . It is irrelevant to the topic at hand. The example was about iPad, you might get a bonus penny for (pretending to) conflating it with OSX but it will remain a failed attempt to mislead.
I assume the majority of iPad users that want to interact heavily with doc files do so via. Pages, which yes is $10.
So aside from your failed attempt to distract from the point , you agree with the parent post of the quoted post of yours. If you have still not grasped , this is exactly what he was saying.
You Americans idolize stupidity so much, you buy your mobile phones from cellular phone service providers and consider it normal. Why do you expect "multi-functional" device to be marketed?
An American is expected to be too stupid to handle buying a mobile phone and separately get cellular service. The country would get littered with exploded brain goo if a multi-functional set-top box gets marketed there. It will truly be an act of terrorism.
Because it is marketed to hardcore gamers (unlike, say, wii which is marketed to "casual" gamers). Gaming is everything they do*, so yes, PS3 without Other OS does do everything.
* Of course not literally, but marketing statements are not about literal truths.

"And now we hear that MS is coming out with its own gear because somehow the OEMs have failed. No. Microsoft failed the OEMs.:
So? Where does it say "we" hear it from MS?

That is irrelevant. Ohh, you forgot? This is /.

all-in-one similar to an iMac
Then it's hardly an iMac, now is it?
"Similar" to iMac. Not iMac.

Yet they are in a net loss because they can't datamine at their leisure.
Right. And hard disks are known to sometimes fail. "Average person" will not backup. Does that make hard disk as data storage worthless?
For any solution, active participants need to mutually benefit. So tell me, how does Facebook benefit from not storing anything?
more able competitors (eg. google drive)
How is google drive more able? No linux client unlike dropbox. Unofficial client lacks basic features. Empty promises from Google for a long time are worse than no promises at all.
Your solution was "a tower (microcell) in EVERY home". I couldn't find AT&T provided tower in my home. Is it microscopic, or buried under my garage ?
AT&T "sells" it? Wow! So customers get to pay so that AT&T can reduce the load on AT&T's network. How generous of AT&T!

Sure, write off Android for all I care. What does this have to do with your conflation between iPad and OSX?

Wow! They have iPads with OS X now? That is something. Where can I get it?
