we both have the same amount of proof. At least Apple has publicly and strongly stated their position on sharing user data (i.e., they don't)--you have been suspiciously quiet on being a sexual predator.
A 32b processor is one which has 32b addresses, a 64b processor has up to 64b addresses, a 128b processor would have up to 128b addresses--which doesn't make any sense because there are only maybe 2^80 atoms in the universe and it is very unlikely that we need to independently address each of them.
Another definition is the maximum efficient integer size on the platform--bulldozer is also not 128b by that metric (again, it is absurd).
Maybe you are talking about SIMD width or something? but then there have been machines with 128b (or wider) SIMD units for decades.
128 bits cpus don't make any sense. Considering a 128 bit cpu the "next step in innovation" indicates that you are a buzzword junkie or a 12 year old, or both.
examples of new products, perhaps built on some previous technology--but impressive iterations. I fail to understand how the latest Windows phone or Adobe CS5 is any more revolutionary than the first successful tablet computer in the history of mankind--for example.
One of the most standards compliant browsers from anywhere with a company that is pushing hard to rid the web of the proprietary Flash de facto standard in favor of an honest-to-god industry standard--on a platform where anyone can develop for free and distribute their apps however they want.
I can open and close the lid on my MacBook thirty times in a row in under a minute and it will go to sleep and wake up perfectly each time. Care to try that with your Win 7 box?
People buy Macs because they think they are worth the money, not because they aren't aware that you can buy other computers cheaper. Kinda like the same reason that people buy nice cars or any other product on the planet.
Lots of very technical people buy Macs. People who value good design.
What matters is the total build and regression story, which encompasses configuration management and revision control--that topic gets far too little attention.
Yes corporations care most about making money--that's kinda the point. And it is possible that any company will abuse their power. All things considered it probably makes sense to focus your energy on companies which are abusing their power rather than concocting elaborate scenarios about potential abuse by the well-behaved ones and then giving smug soapbox rants about constant vigilance against potential tyranny.
Put another way. I'm not saying that you are a pedophile, but one can never know and it is silly to think that you won't act in your own interest and so I'm just saying that you may start molesting kids and therefore we should keep an eye on you. Oh, and if you disagree then you are a blind fanboy and (of course) a pedophile.
but that person represents an insignificant fraction of the market, certainly not large enough to make it worthwhile for Whirlpool to potentially endanger the overwhelming majority of their market that just wants a functional appliance.
Now just wait for the metaphor to sink in...take your time.

...anything we should infer from that?
Anyone? Seriously?
What were the wrong reasons that he supposedly had for getting rid of Flash?--because it seems like exactly the same reasons you mentioned.
cablebox? refrigerator?
Sounds like you have a beef about nearly every electronic device you own.
Why!??!

It's mine, I own it!!!

by your definition.
It will be fun watching you embarrass yourself.
...tells us that you really have no understanding of cpu technology at all.
And btw, Apple is doing a lot of cpu development internally now.
that you have to invent fantasy ones so you have something to panic about?
What if I said that I was worried about you becoming a pedofile because you've had sex before and who knows where that may lead?
Just kidding, I don't really think that you've had sex before--but you get my point.
but then they pick it up--these are computers designed to be used by humans.

Outfitting my family with Macs has taken my weekend IT role down to basically zero.

A few states losing power for a few days isn't going to terrorize anyone. When NYC had a blackout a few years back it was one big block party.
People aren't that fragile.
is talking about how "Green" your supercomputer is. So there's a problem with pretty much the entire discussion.

look it up. Sometimes it sucks, but everything else sucks harder or whatever.
