Sure, Obama's black appearance might have cost him some votes, but it's plainly apparent that it also won him a disproportionate (to his ability, qualifications and eligibility) number of votes by whites to "prove" their progressiveness and lack of bias. Yeesh.
So now that the wicked witch, Jobs, is dead, everyone is running amok. Unbelievable that after Jobs singularly (i.e., his direction) built the company into a powerhouse, EVERYONE now suddenly thinks that they "know better" and bad ideas such as this (licensing, open sourcing, etc.) - which Jobs specifically and integrally eliminated nearly two decades ago - get dragged out of the closet and trotted around like the greatest thing.
Open source might work for Android, but that's because Google makes money on the back end. This is a bad idea. Shame on Woz.
"Badges" as motivators might be novel or perhaps "ubiquitous" in business via "gaming" culture, but the concept goes just a lil' bit beyond gold stars on school papers. Viz: military institutions have been using badges as a motivator for, oh, about >1000 years, now.
for the reasons cited in other posts, plus the demographics of city dwellers would be different.
Could be that urbanites would include poorer (weaker immune systems from lesser pre and post-natal health, poor diets, more crowding/exposure to communicable diseases) people, as well as "nerd" professionals who seem to have a higher incidence of physical limitations (poor eyesight, sedentary jobs, weak constitutions) and thus not really be an element of environmental exposures. Just demographics.
Way back in in the first Internet boom of '98, a few outfits used to give away "free" Macs and PCs that put ads on the desktop in order to subsidize them.
Boris is trying to spin Apple's response (or lack thereof) as a sign of arrogance or unpreparedness, I don't think it it's either. I think it's Boris' attempt to publicize himself and Dr. Web and might even be behind the engineering of the threat now that Mac saturation is broad enough to make A.V. for Macs a profitable market. I don't trust the Russians or the Chinese in any regard.
... as though no innovation occurs in US medical treatments and technologies under our system of private insurers. Sure (rolls eyes).
If you're satisfied with your socialized medicine, bully for you. But for us in the US with the looming specter of 'Obamacare", it's odd that if it's so wonderful, why not many (and no media) are questioning why the President and all of Congress (and their dependents) will be exempt from it.
Big business is only one step above big government in that at least big business has to give you something they created with capital, albeit a rip-off, sometimes, while big government gives you (or whoever they choose) some of the money that they confiscated from you (after bloat, largess and bureaucratic handling fees, of course.) Then, you go up the hierarchy with child molesters, lawyers, etc.
... since the language of the English is, well, English, technically they are the only speakers of English who lack an accent of that language. It's we (everyone else in the English-speaking world) who speak English with accents.
"Looking at the data legally puts you at risk." Oh boy, a shit-house lawyer chimes in. No, that's patently false. You own the drive, that's what they sold you, you can do ANYTHING you want with it. Now if the content is illegal and you share it or you use the content for illegal gain, then you're liable for your own actions. Signed, a *real* lawyer.

I didn't get enough of the 40 or 50 mindless, daily threads asking for earphone recommendations on /g/ on any given day. Now it's here on /. Awesome.

Applied social science is reversing evolution. We're getting more stupid as a species.
This strikes me as something that Cook would do to "seem" Jobsian, but not quite getting the point or overall Apple paradigm quite right.

They should just outsource his job - true poetic justice.

I'm pretty sure Apple doesn't need similar rules about buying MS products.

The Apple needs to counter-sue the bastidges at Proview for infringing on their 'i" moniker that they popularized with the first iMac in 1998.
