We fully support IBM partnering with Apple to destroy it. The bottom line: Apple has no fallback, once the hipsters don't want ishiny any more, that's it. IBM will just keep selling bullshit consulting and support contracts to corps big and small.
I'm not totally sure about your analogy. Maybe Aliens is more like it? You know, the part where the alien gets its egg inside and bursts out of his chest.
Apple, IBM and Motorola partnered for the PowerPC CPU. It worked out.
Oh so really true, and that is why consumers are inundated with power PC chips today... Hmm, err, Apple was really loyal to IBM, yes they were. Yes yes! One for all and all for one. Just saving up that loyalty for later. Sure, that's it.
Microsoft has been very succesful in their attempts to innovate, once you realize that Microsoft has its own private dictionary, and in that dictionary the definition of "innovate" is "extinguish".
KDE gives us a desktop! Yes! But it also gives us nepomuk, baloo, akonadi, virtuoso... KDE has so much useless bloat on it.
No, you are wrong... these things are not useless, they are worse than useless. Each of these fails harder than any stupid kde design mistake has ever failed before. Speaking as a KDE user.
Despite the technological marvel that South Korea is at times, Active X & Internet Explorer are the apex of their Internet communications and Linux is basically not used anywhere.
Android phones are a major exception. Microsoft has negligible presence in Korea on handsets. Other exceptions are the usual ones: data centers, routers, tvs, etc etc.
I don't remember that. But I do remember a number of Adroid vendors introducing displays with even higher PPI, and I do remember Apple losing control of the tablet market after introducing a product that had quadruple pixel count as essentially its only improvement, while regressing in battery life and weight.
Slashdot Mirror
Lenovo gets entrenched as the largest PC supplier then leverages it into largest server supplier. 1, 2, easy.

Omigod get it off my face, wait, where did it go?

Android just needs a proper window manager now.
Geek-chic likes to talk...
chique.
Open Street Map is getting very good.

You are right. And needs Linux as the Windows 9 kernel, it's the only way Windows will ever be able to update a program while it's running.
You are free to download wikipedia and use it locally.

They took my email program.
...it was cheaper to snatch the kernel than write their own...
Never mind that attempting to write and use their own kernel would amount to suicide by stupidity.
Man, this has to be the most blatant Slashvertisement I've ever read.
Disagree. 3D semiconductor tech landing in mass market products is still big news.
And how exactly is this cheaper?
Easy... it's only 14 times more expensive than spinning disk instead of 15.
At first I was fooled. Copyrights. Patents. Guantanamo Bay. What is it with this guy.

...they'll say something to the effect:
"I don't care, Retina Display is better."
Just wait until you experience Apple's new "Eustachion Tube"[tm] audio, it's better than all the things that were ever better before.
I own an LG phone. (Nexus 4). It never froze up or broke, in fact I like it a lot.
You don't know that, Apple toady.
Strike four. Oh wait, you were already out. To lunch, that is.
Strike three. Now put on your standard issue Apple duncecap and go sit in the corner.
Yes.
No exaggeration whatsoever, it means exactly what it says. Idiot strike two. Three and you're out.
(Sitting back and waiting for strike three, we all know it's coming. Or perhaps a beanball in the mouth would better suit the likes of you.)
