1) Write app which "looks" like it does something. 2) Make it shiny icons & UI 3) Guarantee up to 1 million USD 4 any data loss via virus. 4) Profit!!!
I think physical access is required for even theoretical exploits. How do we know "any" Mac OS X antivirus app works? It has to find nothing to prove it.... hmm. What a racket!
1) I write an application using interface builder. The icon is extra shiny - the UI is sexy - attaching knobs, sliders, buttons, progress bars showing "blood vessels" being filled with pure green glowing fluid.
It looks like it is doing all sorts of things, claims to utilize a new Quantum computing algorithm no one else can.
2) In order to detect all zero computer virus, trojan, etc. It doesn't need to "do" anything. I therefore make sure it does nothing. Just looks sexy and like it's always working away....
3) I include a full warranty, plus up to $1,000,000 if any Mac OS X virus destroys your data. Satisfaction guaranteed, 90 day money back offer.
4) Profit!!!!!
In fact, since there has never been a virus on Mac OS X, what criteria can we use to evaluate the ability of antivirus software which has nothing to detect?
Republicans confirm, it is easy to scare people, especially non tech people.
Wait until he can READ! Unbelievable...

Computer For a Child?

You need to "foster" Computer & Gaming interests in kids? Ever read the news? You need to force them to stop playing video games and DO HOMEWORK or go outside! You don't need to "teach" them to look at shiny blinking lights.....
Why does this person as a parent frighten me?
Apple is a business, with 30% profit margins. How can a $400 nettbook earn any profit? Why would most of the consumers "need" one? They are a "neat idea", but useful? Not so much...
All combined TabletPC's are too small of a market, even for a small company like Apple. -steve @ shareholders meeting. Netbooks, have so many compromises, less than an full OS, underpowered. Who "Needs" this product for work/school/hobby - is it worth no DVDs, a screen too small to read? Does not meet minimum requirements for Office? Who is this for???
iPod was for everyone who listens to music. Mac was for people who found computers complicated and too hard to use. iPhone gave one device with features which are useful instead of 95% unused.... Who buys a netbook, and why?
I thinkwebkit is the fastest, most efficient code for HTML. Google agrees, but Opera selling a service - if it breaks down AT&T would have to do support/replacement/repair?
Let's see if they do submit it, what happens. Though no JAVA is clearly going to take some work.
Apple is paid over 2 years, for the phone. It has to support AT&T (or other worldwide service) If they have a bricked phone, Apple & AT&T have to give them another.... If you want to buy the $700 unlocked phone, and have no support, have at it.
No java, no flash, no way - wait until you see why...
Here is their website, they seem like any design boutique - but especially a former IBM licensee - another slap, but where was IBM when Apple needed faster & low power portable notebook chips? Kissing game console makers asses is where...
They designed Multicore server chips based on IBM Power architecture. (Also Mot, err freescale G4 based SOC's) Too bad they couldn't get IBM to invest in Power licensing besides gaming consoles for Apple.
Every time I use image search and see most are not related, I look at Google asking ME to help them label pictures to help. I feel guilty for not helping, and comfort myself knowing Google has a far better shot at image recognition than I ever will.
I just started reading and it says "powerful search engines such as Google and Yahoo". Yahoo is a search engine? A Powerful one? It's an advertising index, Spam search, Ad finder?
I call BS, no one thinks Yahoo is a powerful search engine!
Delicious Library,
Hold any CD, Book, VHS, DVD, UPC symbol in front of any webcam, built in, cell phone pic, and it organizes all your media.

I think they patented the software... but a UPC?
Can't we use the same network and compare? At least that way we could rule out the network. Android is open source, or.... try Wifi? Not a very scientific article.
Exclude extra languages, DVD & movie making software... Handwriting support "Inkwell" has been around for a while.... you may even find Newton apps ported....
( I'm going to be flamed so bad... )
Let's teach them how to avoid getting caught in their K-12 Advanced computer classes. Isn't that a basic skill set these days? How to report news when a totalitarian government has blocked web access. ???
Then again, 4chan is cracking me up lately!
The buy a cheap $999 macbook! Yeah I use all this stuff, and have a degree in Audio/music/engineering. If you need more than the cheapest Macbook, um, how important is your music?
What else is there to say? Wait, my cat likes it. He feels the thumb keyboard limits him, and discriminates against paws. He hired EFF to make full size keyboards standard so cats aren't victims of discrimination....

So, avoid refurb, or any nVidia GPU? Hello integrated graphics!
Military Intelligence is truly a ridiculous concept. Anyway, who's playing quake with me on NSA supercomputers tonight?
What could possibly go wrong?

Small percentage of HD's, 100% of Barracuda 1.5TB buyers? Well, it's a start.... and this time it's really not Vista?

They were all about loving IBM according to this copy of the website - now, maybe not so big on Power server chips... IBM made it's choices. http://web.archive.org/web/20070927205658/http://www.pasemi.com/

I want to up mod this comment, but I was overwhelmed at the "features" page for doing so. Hilarious! ( now where is the Read Me for /. )
