Yup, and most electronic devices have a power button.
Although, you don't hear many people claiming that their device "features" a power button. No, it is just standard.
Was the door on your house one of the highlighted "features" during the pitch? You would have laughed at real estate agent if they told you the house "features" a door. Of course it "features" a door! You would be befuddled if it didn't. Kind of like how I am befuddled when a computer doesn't "feature" printing or spell check. (Although they do have spell check now)
Yea, cause printing is something you would never want to do from a computer. We should inform Apple that way they don't implement it in 4.2. They seem to be working on it for nothing.
Although you are right. A "feature" (LMAO at printing being a "feature") does fit into the "infrequently-used" category when it is not even present.
...our Boss does not want to monitor our employees.
However, as IT we know that SOME monitoring has to be done. We have found out that MOST of our monitoring does not even need to take place. We simply restrict access through Active Directory and DNS.
So...in order to get an official app on my phone that app must be in the app store.
So...in order to get into the app store that app must pass Apple's moral police.
"And it's not just the hackers; third-party influentials and industry leaders like Cisco tell us regularly that our focus and investment continues to surpass others."
Exactly. When a vulnerability is discovered Microsoft has 100s of people who are paid specifically to ID it and fix it. When a high priority security issue is discovered Microsoft pushes out a fix within hours or maybe a day or two. Other companies, you will be lucky to get a fix within a week or a month.
Yes, I know there are examples where the fast response did not happen. However, 90% of the time you even hear about a security hole is because Microsoft has just released a patch for it.
Apple has many proprietary products too. Though the operating system for the iPhone, iPod and iPad is proprietary, we strongly believe that all standards pertaining to the web should be open.
Please write open stuff. Just use closed stuff to write it.

Slashdot Mirror
What a BOLD headline.
Who wants to bet it is completely false?
Is this what /. has come to? A story about a different color being available for an Apple product?
Why if you are going to copy the first few paragraphs of the article would you change "February 10th" to "early next month"?
Maybe the article changed or something but it just seems strange to remove the exact date.
Why is /. not blaming this on M$?
If you don't already own every Beatles album, I feel sorry for you.
Or does 1 trillion seem like a lot?

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/feature
-noun
1. a prominent or conspicuous part or characteristic
2. something offered as a special attraction
But anyway, nice arguing with you. I have made my point and will now move on.
A "feature" would be something that is non-standard.
Take spell check for example, you wouldn't consider that a feature? Oh wait, nevermind.
You fluffers crack me up!

Does the thing even print yet?
One has a primary focus of SOFTWARE and secondary focus on GADGETS

I am sure you would say the EXACT same thing if Microsoft was doing it.
Yup, sure you would.
You fanbois crack me up. So drunk on Apple Cider you can even see your own hypocrisy.
This just proves it again. Don't you dare question our Dear Leader.
Then why is Apple suing HTC? Is this just another case of Apple picking on the little guy?

Oh! THEIR app store. Now I get it.
So...in order to get an official app on my phone that app must be in the app store.
So...in order to get into the app store that app must pass Apple's moral police.
So...that would be censorship.
Why does Apple get to censor ANYTHING on my phone? It is MY phone, not THEIRS!
I will take "Don't be Evil" for $600 Alex.
A HA HA HA!!! Sure buddy. Whatever you say.
You don't expect people to believe that do you?

I have Internet Explorer, Fire Fox and Chrome. I regularly use all 3.
So in what group do I fall into?
LOL. I was going to mention that. But I assumed Apple enhanced it at least some.
