Or it could be that not many Bulldozers are out in the wild, and it makes more sense to not spend the money re-writing parts of the OS for a relatively-few users.
If you think people buying AMD instead of Intel for their home PCs could destabilise the effective duopoly, you might want to read more about both companies involved. Denying yourself a better CPU is simply childish foot-stomping.
You can't stop something from being genocide by looking at why it was perpetrated - genocide is an act in itself. I'm not saying your're wrong, but your logic most certainly is.
The human brain is incredibly complex, but it's unlike anything we've ever made. There is nothing in our technology even like it, as humans simply prefer reproducibility to performance. The human brain makes a fantastic amount of mistakes every second, and is prone to all sorts of diseases - two aspects of technology humans tend to shy away from.
According to you. I've used it a lot (I'm typing this in Windows 8 now), and I've not found any of these issues. It's not interfered with my work one iota - it's fast, does exactly what I need, and is integrated into everything I could possibly want it to be integrated into. It's great. I guess time will tell.
Calm down, scared old man. You can still use your mouse, but if you can type, and are not scared by this paradigm, you can find anything you want by pressing the Windows key, then typing, then pressing enter. It's so much faster than any menu, including the Start menu.
But I'm sure you're correct and all the intelligent people who made it are incorrect.
The license fee costs $228 per year, not $300. And you can't even compare the output of the two, it's not as if NBC had anywhere near the coverage the BBC offered. There is so much great programming on the BBC that anyone who says they can't find many excellent shows on there is either entirely full of shit, or some kind of weirdo.
Read about it, and you'll see exactly how it saves power. It's a better use of your time than writing either lazy pleas for education or rhetorical nonsense.
What the fuck does that link have to do with anything? Maybe your video advertising (fuck you, by the way) SDK is shit and no one wants to use it, as they realise video advertising is a fucked-up bullshit bandwidth-sucking whore of an idea, used by idiots to attempt to sell bullshit to people who deserve better. Where I live, Apple devices are not the majority. Hell, I see far more Samsungs than Apples.
No, in that case the government is interfering with some guy's decision to keep public property (the water, under Oregon law) on his land. And then you made up that nonsense about the EPA to further your argument. Please stop misrepresenting the facts and stop proffering your opinion as fact. It only serves to make you look foolish.
Again, get the fuck over yourself. It's illegal for no good reason, so it's fucking stupid to bow down and spite yourself. Again, unless you are showboating about how awesome you are.
They don't. They need those processors to run lots of apps at the same time. That's like saying Linux is the most insane bloatware because supercomputers with thousands of cores use it.
It pays for some of the best TV the world has ever seen, but if you want to get hung up on some expense accounts, be my guest - just don't expect normal people to agree with you.

Healthcare is not a product. You're sick in the head if you consider it as such. You clearly don't know what you're talking about.
But real universal healthcare prevents that in a heart-beat.

Are you talking about Vista *before* the slew of performance patches which changed everything, or after?
And it shows.

And all of their coverage is shit. What's your point?

You should have read the article before posting your reply, as otherwise you might well be perpetuating stories the same way you decry.
I'm not entirely sure making all sorts of generalisations is really helping the situation.
"No True Alpha Male". Gotcha, you awesome person you.

Who the fuck cares, unless they're trying to seem awesome on Slashdot by picking unreasonable holes in someone's claims? Get the fuck over yourself.
Get over yourself. No TLA agency gives a shit about you.

And your BeOS was 100x less able.

That's a lot of guesswork... I don't see many links backing your positions up.
