As much as I also dislike Comcast, there is no sin in optimizing efficiency by moving frequently accessed data closer to the end user - improving the experience as well as cutting costs. It's the right thing to do.
Why? The CDNs serve cache for almost everybody. Half of that is probably video cache from the top 3 porn vendors. Would you prefer the long range transports clogged instead? That's bad design.
PC makers make PCs that run Windows. So they have to license Windows for the bulk of their products. Marketing incentives essentially make up the entire operating profit for these products, which isn't much in a good year. If PC makers introduce tablet products that don't need Windows, awkward conversations ensue at renewal time about "commitment" and "partnership level". If they lose their PC incentives, their entire business goes unprofitable.
So generally speaking, yes. PC makers != tablet makers. Unless you want to consider Windows tablets - hundreds of which have launched to negligible sales for the last 15 years.
The mobile tablet revolution will be brought to you by companies that don't make Windows PCs, or at least enough for them to care about: Apple, Samsung, HTC, Google's Motorola Mobility division. Acer and Asus, being on the fence, will be challenged.
That lack of change is normal, desirable, or even possible.
Since they start with these proven untrue postulates, the whole thing is a worthless mental exercise in what things might be if things weren't as they are.
Or our otherwise capable childrens inability to do a unit ratio conversion will stop there future hard sciency careers. They might have to take up management science instead and live ever deprived of there true fullfillment.
Now you're innovating new application strategies by leveraging professional / B2B synergies, driving delay and middlemen out of the development lifecycle! Have you by any chance started on your business process patent application?
Even inspecting the data to determine whether or not it's copyrighted material is a serious crime in many places where the customers of MegaUpload live.
This is why it's best practice for small software developers to do business with an attorney who offers bulk rates on Delaware corporations and has the reverse merger bit down. You just turn & burn. Several iterations down you can even buy your fully-laundered bankrupt corps back for their "goodwill". Don't they cover this in CS212 still?

Even in giving he has to have the high score. :-)
Anyway, good on him.
Start at twice the initial offer, and settle for the middle. That's how it's done.
Obviously, me too.

Lighten up. It's a fractal edge, so it's everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

You can look up peering details at peeringdb. It's kind of neat.
And this was the right way to do security all along.
No.

So like the banking, airline, auto industries then? OK.

Self insurance seems a likely option. People aren't building NASA launch vehicles in their garages. Yet.
Subduction takes care of it pretty well. All that marble isn't going to convert back into co2 any time soon.
Anybody who had a lot of faith in footprint evidence for mass had not stepped in enough kinds of mud.

Just fluffy.

They care about control. From control all else comes.
There once were two cats of Kilkenny
Each thought there was one cat too many
So they fought and they fit
And they scratched and they bit
'Til (excepting their nails
And the tips of their tails)
Instead of two cats there weren't any!

Microsoft and Android aren't just an "other platform" to each other. They are death itself.
Yeah, but did you cross-check against IDC and Gartner?
Even inspecting the data to determine whether or not it's copyrighted material is a serious crime in many places where the customers of MegaUpload live.
... And any information derived by things learned from them are the fruit of this poison tree - also inadmissable.

Repent, ye sinners, as this is certain sign that the End of Days is upon us.
