Given that I've never seen this attitude expressed anywhere but on slashdot, I'd have to say you're a lying, jealous piece of shit. Really. The vast majority of Apple customers just like stuff that works. They don't want to play with their hardware or replace their OS kernel. Apple has better brand loyalty than others in their markets because they have good integration and a good track record. Good products that work together. Bottom line.
You should be modded into oblivion for including Flash on your list. There isn't a single mainstream phone on the market that has a non-beta Flash player. That Apple refuses to allow the hypothetical player into the App Store does not in any way mean they are "behind the curve".
I don't know why you'd think that people would buy their apps a second time. Right now you can sync any app to any number of devices, as long as they sync using the same computer.
And I have no clue how you arrive at the conclusion that the power company now has less capacity to deal with a downed transmission line. As far as I can tell, the two issues are completely orthogonal.
A serious gaming platform is a toy. You sound like a pretentious prick. Actually you sound more like someone who wishes he were pretentious. How sad is that?
That's OK. Your mindless hatred is also wrong, but it doesn't stop you. The paper from MS does not claim that the concepts are new. Your assumption that it does, based on your extreme hatred, is simply flawed.

If the food is making you feel fuzzy inside, you probably shouldn't have eaten it.

It's not really hard to understand. It's a shame you're too stupid. You must be a bitter disappointment to your parents.
I very much doubt there's anyone seriously using a 1960's mainframe. Using a mainframe that's compatible? Sure.

Umm, the software in question is the Linux kernel. Tivo doesn't make that.
HSBC's biggest threats are those that might cost THEM money. Duh.
A Windows user is quite unlikely to care about either Windows or Mac OS X being a "closed" system.
Of course, you're extremely stupid, so I don't really blame you for missing that point.
You obviously aren't in a stable relationship if you do not understand that you can love something or someone, but not love everything about them.
In Unix, for port 25? Yes.
The fact that you think anything needs defending is what is wrong.
iPhones don't jailbreak themselves, you stupid idiot.
The (current) iPad does not have a GPS receiver.
I don't know why you'd think that people would buy their apps a second time. Right now you can sync any app to any number of devices, as long as they sync using the same computer.
Just about every smartphone is useless if you break the screen.
The death penalty is required for the same reason putting down a rabid dog is required -- safety for the public.
Neither of your assertions make any sense at all.
If every time is peak time, there is no peak.

You obviously are not involved with a female if you don't think that her version of compromise is getting her way.
A 3D card that went to sleep with the monitor would be horrible. I can't think of any scenario where this would be desirable.

It seems more likely you pulled them out of your ass. Or they pulled you out of theirs.
I sincerely you hope you die painfully and slowly. You, and everyone you love.
If competitors didn't act "anti-competitive", they wouldn't be competitors.
No company does anything to help their competition. That's the very nature of competition, you dumb fucks!
