You need to diustinguish between hd & non-hd players. Look at the adoption curve 2000-2002. Granted the ipod came out in late 2001. How long have tablets been out?
Would a Mac tablet ever see the light of day? This is not intended as a troll/flame, but how big is the market for a niche product from a niche computer manufacturer?

Is it just me or does "Bounty" evoke ideas of something else entirely?

In most cases, refreshing an existing program will take less time than rewriting it in a diffferent language, as in both cases you need to have a firm understanding of what the program does before proceeding.
In many corporate cases, you don't have the luxury of writing in any language you please and, even if you do, in most cases you'll have an uphill challenge convincing a PHB that rewriting from scratch in a new language is the better proposition.
While it would be difficult to check every source for every story, not checking them leads less-than-scrupulous journalists into temptation. Why not have a publication select a number of sources at random and check them? Wouldn't this go a long way towards "keeping honest people honest"?
This has to be among the worst booke reviews I have ever seen on Slashdot. And that's saying something. Most reviewers take the time to give you some detail. An indication of whether or not this book is for you. This just seems like a shameless whoring to get affiliate credit with B&N under the guise of a book review.
If you're going to sue the govt, you'd better have a lot of money. If you're a competitor of open source bringing the suit, how does winning improve your chances of future business with the govt?

Now white headphones are becoming as ubiquitous as cell phones.
In Steve Jobs' dreams perhaps. There were almost 700 million cell phones sold last year and an estimated 800-900 million this year.
How many ipods?

The adoption curves are markedly different. The one for mp3 players has been practically straight up. Not so, tablet computers.
Also, the market for consumer electronics (ipod) is very different than the market for computers.
mp3 players were pretty much a hit from the get-go. Not true with tablets outside of some corner-case, vaertical markets (e.g., warehousing).
Some of us pointed that out to the editors before it was published, but they chose to ignore us (surprise, surprise, surprise)
They are very simple illustrations, not photos.

Note: we need a source on this. All we have now is an anonymous edit on Wikipedia from someone at Cal State Fullerton.
An anonymous edit in Wikipedia. Now there's a source for you!

Either one will be fine as I wouldn't expect that flock of women any time soon.
RTFA. It wasn't their car. Toyota lent it to them.
Step 1: Write code
Step 2: Post on Slashdot asking for money
Step 3: Profit!
She'd like to see it more widely deployed.
What's so surprising about this, other than the cutesy, obtuse way she makes her case?

Welcome to our world.
I don't think anybody expects China to surpass India as a software superpower. China is all about hardware from the perspective of the global economy.
You mean like this?
against either government?
If you're going to sue the govt, you'd better have a lot of money. If you're a competitor of open source bringing the suit, how does winning improve your chances of future business with the govt?
And how many countries have the capability? That's what I want to know.
Now there's an oxymoron if I've ever seen one.
Lots of RAM does not make up for a small penis.
Isn't it hard to deliver lots of "RAM" with a small penis?
