The way this National government is going, they are ensuring that the IT industry and the computer geek populace won't be voting for them in the next general election. First the three-strikes internet downloading law, then the Dotcom debacle, and now the government's backtracking on their original anti-software patent stance. All three are seemingly in response to US influence (and most obviously in the case of Dotcom). The NZ Pirate Party and even the Greens are starting to look like good choices.

Meh, not to worry, this whole article sucks anyway.
Only the iPod Nano isn't an iOS device. The Touches definitely are.

Haven't you seen the Star Trek Generations movie? It's totally possible.
I hope BMW sues Apple for using the name Mini.
If Valve can fix the mess that is audio on linux and make that available to all distros then that in itself would make Steam worthwhile.
Shouldn't that be Brokeback Mountain Lion?
Yeah I tried to view them on the USPTO site and was told to install an Apple Quicktime plugin. No fucking thanks.
