  1. No phones when traveling on House Committee Approves Bill Banning In-Flight Phone Calls · · Score: 1

    Thank god. The last thing I need is to be sitting next to a moron that thinks since the person on the other end of the phone is far away he has to yell into the phone to be heard. Cell phones have no business on a plane, bus, train or car.

  2. Re:Will you ever lose your job and need health car on US Presidential Debate #2 Tonight: Discuss Here · · Score: 0

    Survival of the fittest. The government does not owe me or anyone else a single thing. Stay out of my business. I have been unemployed for 8 months without insurance and I do not blame anyone but myself. Stop being a leech on society and provide for yourself. I bet you believe that the government "owes" you a retirement also? If you do not save enough for your retirement, then you don't deserve to retire. The government does not owe you a retirement or social security. Start saving for your own damn retirement and give back your free obama phone.

  3. You are too old on Ask Slashdot: Am I Too Old To Retrain? · · Score: 1

    Yes, you are too old. Your only option is to go management and since you are not a people person, your only options is to get into a new field.

  4. SDUSD ditching all apple products completely on School Regrets Swapping Laptops For iPads · · Score: 1

    The San Diego Unified School District is removing all ipad's, iphone's, mac computers and laptops from all school's and Administrative offices. We will be replacing the iphone's form Administration with Android phones, the Tablets with either Nexus 7 devices or Galaxy Tab's. The apple desktops and laptops will be replaced with Windows devices. My company expects to have this completed by summer 2013 so I am not suprised to read this story. My company does approximately 50% of our business replacing apple products with Android and Windows. Businesses are realizing that apple products are overpriced toys and upgrading to Android and Windows is the solution 99% of our projects end up going with.

  5. Re:judge will invalidate on Apple v. Samsung Jurors Speak, Skipped Prior Art For "Bogging Us Down" · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I agree. I have been a lawyer for 34 years and the Judge will most likely set the jury decision aside or invalidate it. There is obvious jury tampering and jury steering happening here. I am no fan of Google but this is utter nonsense when you include prior art.

  6. Re:Apple not forcing IT, IT is forcing Apple on Apple Forcing IT Shops To 'Adapt Or Die' · · Score: 1

    You are spot on. We have over 3000 employees and I just finished having my IT guys clear out any apple products including iphone's. If I see one on my network, I take it and throw it away.

  7. xoom avail march 1 on When Should I Buy an Android Tablet? · · Score: 1

    I am at CES as we speak and motorola demo'd xoom and stated it will be avail march 1st. I called my verizon rep and they confirmed. No one will comment on price other than it will be less than ipad by a lot. $300?? ;)

  8. Re:God I love these "You must run xxx OS" edicts on MA High School Forces All Students To Buy MacBooks · · Score: 0

    Awesome job making your daughter the smartest girl in school for running linux. It does not make her "the oddball" it makes her the smartest for choosing linux and not paying the apple tax (apple is just a GUI ontop of linux anyway). Linux and android blow away mac by a factor of 100.

  9. whats the point of the ipad? on iPad Launches, FCC Teardown Leaked · · Score: 0, Troll

    i bought one today but after a few hours, took it back. i see no reason or purpose for it. I have a droid, best phone/os combo ever. i have a win7 laptop that is faster than any mac laptop. all cost significantly less than apple products. it just doesnt do anything that my droid and laptop dont already do. why waste $800 for something that wont be used? windows tablets never caught on for same reason, they are not needed.
