No . . . if they had referred to it as "Apple's app store" it would have indicated that "app store" was a generic term. Capitalizing it indicates that it is a proper noun and refers to one thing (i.e. is not generic).
Writing a book (or a good wiki - there are plenty of poor ones out there) is a heck of a lot of work. It takes skills that most people who are technically competent do not have; and even if they do, they may not consider writing to be the best use of their time. With a book, at least there is some compensation - and often help from experienced publishers. Online tutorials tend to be good at specific tasks, but fail to help people grasp the big picture.
There are reasons - nefarious or otherwise depending on your interpretation - but at the end of the day you can do it if you're willing to patch and install a self-signed kernel. I did it myself for Vista SP2, and it works fine. It may not work fine for you. I figured it's well worth it to get 4GB vs. 3GB without the hassle of upgrading.
Arizona is working on it as well - the bill is supported by the Bioethics Defense Fund, the Arizona Catholic Conference, and members of the 40 Days for Life Campaign.
Activision is acting as a publisher for a company that develops the game. Infinity Ward made and sold that game, not an idea (OK, they might not have had all of the game when they sold it, but they probably didn't just have a game concept, unless they were an existing company with many years of experience making games).
I was editing on the Creatures Wiki in late 2004, and launched WikiFur in July 2005 - in part, because Wikipedia didn't want detailed articles on that particular topic. You're a little late to the party, but welcome.:-)
No it doesn't. Even without the possibility of collisions, TCP takes time to ramp up. Still, you can normally put the download at the end of the page and it won't matter.
Just registering a trademark in the US is an expensive nine-month hassle (or more), and it's one of the easiest and cheapest places to do so in the world. At least Europe now has a way - well two ways - of registering a Europe-wide trademark, as long as nobody in any of the 27 member states complains. As Michael says, good luck with the rest.

The very next story demonstrates this trademark in action.
I find it amusing that this blurb uses the term "App Store" in a manner befitting its trademarked status, given the immediately previous story.
As others have said, it's not for lack of trying . . .
I learnt a lot from putting a torsion screwdriver back together. I had to look up the patent to learn how the bits fit together, though.

That's because there aren't any developers to communicate to. They've all been moved onto another project, even if it's just the sequel.

And since it was after 2PM, it would have had to have dropped 20% (and closed the market, preventing the subsequent recovery).
Good luck buying a new game for $100 by the time DNF comes out.

Apple isn't gay, they're just metrosexual. That way they get to look fashionable without actually taking it in the butt.
You couldn't win that, unless you made up a goal for yourself. Or SimCity? Are the scenarios games, but the sandboxes not games?
No . . . it also lets them know when they've not changed, so it won't have to re-check them.

It's not the Wikipedians who are complaining about this - it's the idiots who bought the books (never mind that Amazon probably gave them a refund).
On Slashdot, the message *is* the topic.
They're still built. In many ways, they can be more permanent than buildings. Certainly, they can have far greater impact, if built well.

The key is to have fetishes weird enough that people don't know it's porn.
Most furs are straight or bi, after all, so there's a market for plenty of other types of porn.
