they just bought ATI and are thus in a position to better integrate CPUs and GPUs (for better performance), which is something that I'm sure a few hard core gamers might be interested in
When the success of your business model depends on the interest of a few hard core gamers, it's time to head for the exits.
The Fender similarity would only apply if a group of workers at MS banded together, got some investors, bought out all the shares owned by Ballmer et al, fired them, and then turned the company around.
Who cares about the pay, once you are earning above a certain amount, being happy with what you do is far more important than earning more money.
Then you remember that you have a family to support, and that being happy with what you do doesn't put dinner on the table, shoes on the little feet, or pay the mortgage.
"The risks to Australian youth are primarily those associated with Web 2.0 services - potential contact by sexual predators, cyber-bullying by peers and misuse of personal information," ACMA said.
And just how the fsck is an ISP http filter going to prevent any of that?
The CD became king of audio because it is more convenient than magnetic tape. Now a new format has arrived and the CD is dying, because the new format is more convenient.
The DVD became king of video because it is more convenient than magnetic tape. Now a new format has arrived, and this time no one cares. Because Blu-ray is NO MORE CONVENIENT.
I think the point is that Valentine decided to leave, and MS knew that would look bad to investors. So MS pushed Vista out the door to give investors the impression that Valentine was leaving because there was nothing more to do on Vista.
If 45% of respondents on a tech- and media-crazy site like Slashdot don't care, then that's close enough to "humanity as a whole doesn't give a shit" for me.
For those of you unfamiliar with red-light districts in the Southern Hemisphere, Sydney Australia's "King's Cross" is the grandaddy.
If you seek it, whatever it is, chances are it can be bought down a sidestreet in "the Cross" any night of the week. Like drugs, for instance. You can buy drugs in King's Cross, Sydney, Australia.
There -- according to the "torrents are stealing" argument, I am now a drug dealer. I didn't actually provide you with the drug, but I gave you instructions on where to get them yourself. And, of course, that's exactly the same thing.
Bear in mind that New Zealand is a tiny nation of overachievers with inferiority complexes and no notion of "you can't do that". "Ordinary" in NZ might be very different from "ordinary" in Bumfuck Alabama.
That's it. I was undecided until now. Screw you, Clinton, and all the other craven whores who didn't have the balls to stand up for the American people on this.

If you bought a book, you own the paper. ... You don't have a right to distribute that content...
So when I buy a book, I have to read it to myself in silence then?
Better not let Dr. Seuss's lawyers find out, I'm infringing his copyright every night at my kid's bedtime.
Must be mathematically and/or scientifically gifted, enjoy solitude, long periods of limited sensory input.

Tandem guys are laughing at this thread.
The stupid bureaucratic attitude is what is preventing the country to flourish.
Maybe they remember running the world for thousands of years, and just can't be f*cked any more?

There's also "we spent 10 years writing this crap and it's still crap... ah fuckit, I'm going to work for Amazon."
True. It would have been much more accurate to say that Apple cripples every piece of software equally, and then secretly uncripples its own.
When you see something fall to the ground, do you attribute it to the "THEORY of gravity", or do you just think "gravity"?
In my experience you can always spot the superstar, because he's the only person in the team flatly denying that he's a superstar.
And just how the fsck is an ISP http filter going to prevent any of that?
Does the submitter need a phone that can RECEIVE emails or a phone that can READ emails? There's an important difference.
I read all my emails on my phone by logging in to gmail via http. But I don't download my email to my phone.
Say it with me now...

Look, commie. 9-11 changed everything, 9-11 9-11. What part of "Freedom Stay The Course Terror Terror" don't you understand?

...on why the USA is so hated that there have been TWELVE THOUSAND terrorist attacks in three and a half years?
Or is that just crazy defeatist talk?

Obviously not an American court.
We've know that Titan was drenched in carbon compounds for decades. What next, a headline reading Sun's hydrogen surpasses hydrogen reserves on Earth?
That's it. I was undecided until now. Screw you, Clinton, and all the other craven whores who didn't have the balls to stand up for the American people on this.
