This coming from a Google Rep? Valid points that don't agree with you and you result to name calling? Tell tell signs you aren't on the winning side of things.
If they are just switching the order of events and not actually paying to have dead time(as in NBC paid to have a time where are no events for U.S. convience) then no matter what there will be SOME events that happen in the middle of the night your time.
You are just bitching cause it was an event you wanted to see. How about you and your boys get together and toss some euros at the problem to 'resolve' this situation or cry me a river. Have a good day.
"I see no indication that Gates has changed. He's still not interested in competitive free markets; he's got his fingers deep in the patent pot, something that's actively preventing cheap medicines in many countries."
The issue with this is you don't associate patents with free markets. Someone who does(I'm one of them) believes that there are still competitive markets with patents and that once removed, you don't really have competitive markets because the issue becomes not who can come up with the next great idea first, but who can rip it off the fastest and cheapest.
OWE? WTF. Our society isn't build on some mail in rebate system. Company owners got rich because people bought what they were selling. They don't owe the people a partial refund. Big time investors get rich by giving companies money in hopes they get big. People bought what the companies were selling, and the investors get paid for picking winning companies. I could breakdown how this applies to every other scenario but I won't.
OWE? With that false sense of entitlement you must be a liberal:(
I don't know Mr. Icahn personally but I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he knows what he's doing and exactly why he's doing it. He has belittled execs of companies before and has had them thrown out before doing whatever is he does and he seems to make more money than he loses.
I don't think he's just yelling at Yahoo's CEO in a blind emotional rage.
I wonder if the second amendment is not one of the biggest security theatre ever, allowing gun manufacturers to keep their sales high.
Really? I mean REALLY? The 2nd amendment was written with the pre-NRA NRA in mind? I've heard some pretty far out things on this site but wow, that just takes the cake.
You are right that Yahoo has a responsiblity to maximize shareholder wealth. My question to you and Icahns to the board: Does Yahoo have a plan to increase their share price by 73% in the forseeable future? We'll say the next 5 years, this isn't the far east, we're relatively impatient. If not, they failed at their responsiblity to maximize shareholder wealth.
How is that an interesting idea or even relevant? Taking pictures of a home or something is one thing, identifying who it belongs to is another. Google isn't giving you the ability to click on a home and get the details of whose inside. Nice job trying to instigate though. You get a C for effort.
Yes/no. Before the actiontec router (customers who got in early) use Motorola NIMs and dlink routers and they get full functionality. If you can get a hold of the NIM, you don't need the actiontec router.
+1 for the above poster. As far as windows machines, arent there numerous floppy disk/cd tricks that allow you to change the windows password/make it blank IF YOU HAVE ACCESS TO THE DRIVE? How is this news other than its anti MS?
MS will file an appeal somewhere and wait for the DOJ(I think thats the group who came to their def last time) to tell the EU to simmer down. If I was MS, after verifying most of my valuables are not situated in the EU, I'd tell them to 'blow me' and proceed to business as usual.
omfg. I swear. Being a monopoly is NOT illegal. Abusing it is. There is a HUGE difference. Hence how phone(land lines), utilities, and cable providers are able to exist as they do.
The issue with this is Clinton got caught in a lie. Once exposed there wasn't anyway to dispute that CLinton didn't know about the affair, he was a participant. With Bush, you have to show that he ACTUALLY KNEW at all the important points about the issues he was giving wrong information about. You can't (ethically) impeach him for being wrong after the fact.
Because most investors live their life a quarter at a time(you get the idea). You want to spend 2x now, that's fine. You gonna guarantee me 20x worth of savings in 6 or 7 quarters? If you can't, I'm gonna have to pass on that idea. =\
I agree with you 110% on the defense should be anonymous until found guilty. I think this is ESPECIALLY true with rape cases. I want the accusers name made public and the defense held secret until proven guilty.

When making comparison of movies through the ages they generally account for inflation. That's how Gone With The Wind stayed on top for so long.

I see 'insert linux distro here' as overtaking Windows slowly.
So now its Ubuntu?
Before wasn't it slackware and before that Redhat? Was SuSe ever part of the cool kids gonna take down Windows club?

Mr. Romero's greatest work had to have been Daikatana.

Something is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. The stock price got the way it was because thats what people wanted to pay for it.
LTCM put hedge funds on the map, they didn't destroy it.

Isn't NSA's bread and butter breaking any encryption you can throw at it?
Neither is indeed famous but all you said was:
"It would cover his area of business, not an unrelated blog. There is no way that somebody would find the sites "confusingly similar."
Nissan Computer sales and Nissan Autos are in totally unrelated businesses. Nissan just had the money to make it irrelevant.
Tell that to this guy: http://nissan.com/
