It's unusual to have the F-16 referred to as Viper in articles like this. I had to look it up and indeed, it seems to be a common and old nickname for it. I think it suits the aircraft better than the "Fighting Falcon".. I never understood why they had to put the "Fighting" in the name.. wasn't Falcon enough?
Ah! You hint to a belief that those who buys iPhones are techically challenged, and if they were to be banned from buying Apple products Apple would suffer.
No, that's probably not accurate.
Thanks for playing.
You can surely dominate in other respects than market share, no?
Look att Apple who completely dominated the cell phone industry from the day they released the iPhone, with exactly 0% market share. Domination can be measured in the means others take to counter the attack. Everyone scuttles against Apple or is about to perish.
nVidia and AMD surely dominates the desktop GPU market before Intel since it'sIntel that's playing catch up in means of power and features.
Yeah because Hz == Hz? Hmm.. welcome to the MHz Myth. You probably haven't heard of it, but you should.
It's like this: Hz a measure of steps per time, like counting number of steps mer minute taken by someone who runs. Imagine a short person and a tall person that take an equal number of steps. Who runs the farthest? The tall man or the short man? Pentium 4 or a Ivy Bridge Core i7?
It's not your 10 year old Pentium4.. In case you cot lost in the lesson somewhere.
There is a point for the F22, and that is to suppress all other power's desire to make stuff that will encounter it. That's why the US have nuclear weapons, not to use them but to deter others from using such weapons agains them. So.. it very well might be well spent money.. but we never know, since we won't see the stuff that the F22 is designed to encounter..and that's the point.
I think it's extremely pleasant to read a relevant follow up of a previous article. In this day and age where hysterical or sensational trolling is the main reason for publishing any news items, a calm and sensible follow up where the facts are laid bare is rare. Kudos to Slashdot.
You don't think that Nokia's recent win against Apple where they settled their disputes has anything ti do with it? It just might be that Nokia's satisfied with what they got from Apple's iPhone which is more than they get from their own smartphone business.
Yes, Apple is paying for each download.. up to a cap of $6.5 million annually. Google payed 125 million for On2. That's 19 years worth of h.264 licenses. Money google probably will have to pay anyway.
This artichle seems to be solely about Android and it's not that surprising since it's the operating system from the company whose business model is to sell your personal information to everyone who wants it.
The users of Android are the advertisers, you are a part of the product packaged by Google for the OEMs and carriers.

What RISC platform did XP, Vista and Windows 7 run on?
XP had support for Itanium, but that's not a RISC platform.
Vista and Win7 only support 32- and 64-bit x86.
So.. It seems you are wrong in your statement.
The whole SCO story isn't all bad, perhaps not bad at all. It has resulted in some pretty important stuff like auditing the Linux code for copyrighted stuff, keeping developers and contributors honest to the code, and really putting these legal issues to test so the rules are clear and hardening Linux while showing that it is a serious player and that large companies can get involved. Linux as a project is absolutely better off for it. Hard times makes does that to stuff, if it doesn't kill you.
I thing the battling with Apple will result in the same thing: Less copying/imitating/plagiarism and more innovating. That's what we want, isn't it? New great products, not more of the same?
When did Microsoft or Apple buy their smartphone partner? How is this a page out of their play books? Why is Apple or Microsoft mentioned in this article? Everything isn't always about them.
The problem with everything you mentions is that it can be awesomely great, but fundamentally useless if no one knows that it excises at all. I didn't know Google have any speech services, nor Microsoft. I do however know that Apple has, so what Apple have done is useful for me. What Google or Microsoft has done was impossible for me to use, since it was unknown to me.
There are several cool zombie like OS:es that is ripe for resurrection: AmigaOS, MorphOS, Plan 9 and Haiku. One could even put an OpenStep foundation on top of any of these or something more conventional OS like Linux or xBSD and tap some similarities with iOS.

Yeah! It's LTE's fault. Really, that's why iPhones are selling so badly oh wait! No, they are not selling badly at all!

Hubble's sensors are made to detect faint stuff that Earth based telecopes just can't detect. Hubble's sensors will fry immediately.

This only applies to the WiFi version, called iPad2,4. The CDMA and 3G versions are still using the older 45 nm version of the A5 processor.

Microsoft says it pays and pays more that it receives, and they have stuff in the patent pool too http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2010/05/03/follow-up-on-html5-video-in-ie9.aspx. So that probably is the case for Apple too.
OK it's somewhat sensitive information, but why was it confidential for so long?

Error's corrected. All is well. Have a nice day :)
Xiph didn't create FLAC, Josh Coalson did, two years prior to it being included in the OGG cluster of codecs by Xiph.

Google does not have a monopoly, get over it already.
Ha ha ha! You made a funny!
A picture frame from Samsung isn't a computing device, so there was no trademark infringement prior to the iPad.

Yes! That looks anything like an iPad! .
