I like Android, but what has kept me away from it is that I have not found an Android phone that consistently gets new updates after they are released for a long period of time. Sure, Apple makes mistakes like this but the important thing is that they shipped an update and basically all affected phones got it even if they were a couple of years old.
Let's say that the same thing happened to Android. How large percentage of Android phones would even get the update at all?
Flashback is a trojan, not a virus. And it only affects OS X, not iOS. If someone knows of an actual virus for iOS (and for OS X too by the way) I'm very interested to know about it.
Well, their network devices can still use IPv6 just fine. It's the new administration interface that don't support it yet. That's why keep the old version updated in parallel until the new one is complete. Frankly, I don't get what the fuzz is all about.
Since no one has flown a plane into a building under their watch it's hard to say that they are ineffective, for all we know it's possible that they have stopped several such attempts. There are other reasons why TSA is a bit suboptimal. We can't prove that they make us safer, we can only disprove it once they don't.
Doesn't really matter. You are supposed to follow the laws and regulations in all countries where your app can be used. That's why responsible developers restrict their app to only work in their own country.
I still think however that it will be interesting to follow the outcome of this since Android is marketed as being open with more or less no control or involvement from its authors. If Google starts enforcing control over third party applications then what will the next step be? Android is open at its core but it could be that Android as a whole is going toward being somewhat locked-down.

No I just wanted to clarify it since there is a huge difference between a trojan and a virus.
Flashback targets Java for OS X, not iOS.

What about security updates, are they also delayed for months (or never shipped?) to most Android phones?

Didn't they get money in the first place by selling the books?
Finally a good reason to burn the text book on linear algebra.

All in the name of free and open source software.
Yes as far as I understand it.
Not to mention the network technicians.
Oh, 10 % not offended. I'm impressed!
Your project is a success when a corporation embeds it in their product and violates the GPL.
No, it's when you enforce it.

Good point!
So basically "Android" is open but almost no one actually uses it, in it's true sense.
Ehm, ok.

It will be interesting to see what comes out of this.
I think it's time for someone to define Android.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the system requirements for XP just 64 MB?
Then I think 512 MB should be enough for Fx as well.
In that case I would go with Linux From Scratch. They should learn from the ground up!
A G4 is certainly not on par with a P2, that would be the PowerPC 603e or similar.
A G4 is more similar in performance to a P3 or P4.
It's not about them.
I stopped editing Wikipedia many years ago and I have no intention to ever have anything to do with them again.
