I need a mouse and keyboard to start playing a movie, but I only need one key to pause it, and none to just let it play. Again, how does a laptop fail here?
Then why didn't Ballmer say that it was categorically imperative for Microsoft to release an iPad killer? Also, if Microsoft is only kind of like Apple, does that mean that Microsoft is phenomenal reality to Apple's noumenal reality?

Buzzword Bingo! Ah, that's how Mandriva pays for it.
Now, when will I hear big buzzwords like "ontology-based management" in Gnome?That's right...Never. They're not cutting edge. Never were, never will be...
If buzzwords could make something cutting edge, we'd have a much higher rate of technological progress.
I took the person to whom you responded as saying that it held for the general population, who therefore avoid political extremists.

OK, who forgot to include the defense_against_rocket_launcher() function in the Amiga kernel code?
Does random sampling ensure that the number of former and current users of iPhone and AT&T users in the sample is proportionate to their occurrence in the US population as a whole?
So you get a representative sample of the entire population.
The entire population of what? The United States? How are the people who have never had an iPhone supposed to answer? You could include past users who have left, but how do you know where they are?

I write my quizzes and exams in LaTeX, does that count?
Send a British warship to Vancouver (Hey, we're one big happy Commonwealth!) and launch a cruise missile at Redmond?
For example, the ratio of distance covered and time needed, also known as speed, very clearly has an unit.
But is that a ratio or a rate?
If Microsoft had never existed, then IBM would not have been able to get someone else to write the operating system? Color me skeptical.

I teach math, not opinions.
Made it better in what way? Without IBM's imprimatur on the PC, the architecture would never have taken off.
But I don't need a laptop or iPad to do that!
As a college instructor, I hope I know something that my students don't. Isn't that the point of having professors?
Except that Netscape never had a $200+ billion market cap.
Without the PC explosion, for which I'm giving MS most of the credit,
And if reality gives IBM most of the credit?
But until he appoints his horse to the board of directors, he's still no Caligula.
It's for browsing the web on the couch, watching movies in an aeroplane, reading email in bed. It's better than a laptop for any of those things.
How? A laptop is perfectly good for those.
