The worst thing I find, mostly with games on Kickstarter is that they set an initial goal £100,000 for example and then they hit it, within two days. So then they set these stretch goals and go "well at £200,000 we will add air combat to this game", "wow £300,000 awesome, now we will add naval...you guys don't mind us adding an extra 2 months to development right?" Wrong, don't estimate 8 months then when you get more push it further back.
Some of these games (Elite for example) is set to ship March 2014, that's over a year away and you're expecting me to pop £40 out now for a game I may or may not see in 15 months, what is my incentive here other than I may get a £2 discount on a game in the future.
From the top torrent sites, they search for the torrents on there and look at the publicly available statistics of times the torrent file has been downloaded, hence the word estimated.
An amazing way to exploit software that is ubiquitous on many computers.
Let's start the conspiracy now that Apple are told by governments not to fix a bug until they find a better 0Day to exploit.
I see news articles saying "Sub $200 tablet from (Big Vendor) due soon" then it turns out to be vaporware.
Sick of these companies never following through.
... you do realize that Apple's lawsuit was about their contention that the Samsung Galaxy Tab was a ripoff of the iPad? Putting Honeycomb on a Galaxy Tab doesn't really seem like that much of a stretch....
"but said that Samsung could get around this simply by upgrading its phones to Android 3.0"
Note, not tablets.
This sounds basically the same as the "Verified Account" badge on Twitter that's used to identify high-profile celebrities as not being impostors.
Exactly, they also said they'll be rolling it out to normal people when they could, 18 months on and still no sign of expanding past the small minority of celebrities that make up their user base.

They should of done this ages ago, now they are on a burning platform and they can't escape.
Everyone knows it's running XP, took a while to sort out the license though.
Almost as good as my raspberry pi.

You could just use: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/intro.aspx
As shown on http://www.destructoid.com/crysis-2-huge-success-xbox-360-dominates-sales-197396.phtml XBox made up 57% of the sales, 29% for PS3 and PC only 14%. Probably in part to the 3 million downloads of the game via torrents.
Have had a bit of a crysis... Yes, I went there.
One of the more useless lego pieces they have produced.
You should always put all your music onto a £10 mp3 player and only listen to it on there!

This is the main exploit used by the Jester for attacks on Apache servers?
Don't have a public profile and don't go out with friends and have them publicly tag your photos. Just an idea.
Good luck in your future CmdrTaco, don't be a stranger.

Perfect. While you're at why not install windows xp on it to avoid patent issues.
