OSX is open - it runs on all Apple desktop and laptop hardware available;)
As a side note, Apple never claimed the OS was open, merely the API. Just because Windows will write to the boot sector and run on another x86 processor in no way means it's open, either. It means it's cross-scalable. Let's keep with the right phrasings here, and not try to make Windows look open lol
The USA is ran by people who have a direct bias towards corporate interest. Wait.. not biased... a default choice of corporate interest. Nearly every decision is backed by "this will be better for corporate entitlements".
If you remember, all war activities were performed during an existing war, and Russia were allies with the USA at that time. The cold war didn't happen until after the war, during reconstruction.
Once they get to the point of having a comparable processor & RAM selection between the two, your right on... oh, and iOS not in there. Then, it's simply a monitor and bluetooth keyboard/mouse. Of course, then the iPad will have to have choices of 10 or 13 inch screens.
Remember that this specific reason was why the Phoenix browser was created? Mozilla (and Netscape Communicator) was such a huge product.. and slow. I definitely agree, and you shouldn't need to compile it just to run something in 32-bit mode as well. With the selection of 32-bit hardware (and in a lot of cases, 32-bit code being the optimized selection due to 64-bit code taking extra memory per pointer/etc), it's silly to jump ship on 32-bit at the current moment. Maybe in 5-10 years, but now is just too early.
I agree, but honestly I feel like we're using the same technology today but with new processor registers, address space sequences, and languages that are higher level so have a huge overhead. What ever happened to memory overlay capabilities? Then again, I guess that goes more into old school C and memory management techniques. I've actually thought recently how a well written assembly application would look nowadays compared to C++, Objective-C, or whatever other (non-high level) languages around. Haven't touched it in over 15 years, and it looks ripe for the taking now with so many added registers...
As much as I want to believe what you say (and I think it until I break it apart in my head), it's not quite as simple as rendering something to the screen. That's part is a specific subsection of code within the browser. The rest is array indexes, plugin coordinations, and a bunch of other things all happening at the same time. While I'm not a browser coder, I understand the complexities. That being said, once a browser goes over 3G memory use, you start scratching your head.
Atom processors are 32-bit... and they are netbooks, mostly.
All the push for netbooks by the miscellaneous crowd, and you say that? It's a browser.. not a damned operating system. This is the reason I switched away from Firefox, and separately one of the reasons I left Windows over a decade ago.
Having trouble comprehending computer binary sequence, and word size transmissions? Hint: It was a joke about 1080p and data transfer through the data bus.
Seriously... I read this article thinking it was a satire/joke article considering I never hard the name XBox 720, and the name XBox 360 was a little cliche even when it came out. It's just stupid as shit now, but that's beside the point.

Almost a real life digital "cathedral and the bazaar".

If that was indeed Android's #1 problem, it'd be a blessing.
I'll believe it when I see it, and gauge the quality of execution. Sadly though, that's only one of the many issues.

The sub 10 MB download for windows is a stub to install over the 'net. It's not the product.
Because that knocks a huge chunk of the consumer market out. Any other questions?

Great, that eliminates ~40.9% of the internet. How about the rest?

It's obvious emacs developers got bored on their current projects ;)

Just proof that Sony keeps support for their product line.
PS2's were created in March 1999
PSP is a handheld system with little need for high-processing power, and was released May 11, 2004
bluray == more than just games.
It's a standard much like dvd was a standard.

Christmas is earlier than December 25th in Canada?
Pretty much the reason why the PS3 caches most games a fair amount onto harddisk.
have you tried doing anything OTHER than welding while wearing a welding mask?
It virtually blinds you.
They run around like that, just with tiny pistols.
Let me be the person that says it..
*WHOOSH!!*
So this is a chinese drone?
