    They should bring in some new CEO from a 'traditional' big company, like Coke. They could use some more stable strategizing. Maybe Bill Gates? RIP Steve, I loved the Newton, your greatest creation.

    The Newton was Scully's creation. His vision is understated: he coined the word "multimedia", introduced the world to HyperTalk, CD ROM, scanners, colour Macintoshes, digital photography among other things...

  2. Re:Welcome to Sweden on Pirate Bay Trio Lose Appeal · · Score: 1

    Let's say I like Iron Man and decide to watch Iron Man II. I crack open my usenet page and look for it - ahah! I find it as a 1080p bluray rip and download it. I watch it knowing that i didn't need to rent or buy it. The commenter says that no one has lost money, but in point of fact blockbuster or videoezy has lost money (and by that I mean the publishers): they have lost money that i would've spent. How is that not difficult to understand?
