doesn't really matter, all that piracy shakedown stuff is coming to a close a prenda is being brought front and center for those specific activities. There are very, very wide implications for what is going on that will probably stop a large amount of the "piracy settlement" firms.
Businesses make money by charging people for scarce resources
uh, no. businesses make money by providing value which customers then pay for. that doesn't mean artificially scarce resources, which aren't truly scarce. This will however, break a ton of shit very quickly.
what you're stating implies that you'd assume that threatening someone means they've decided to do more? is this a troll? are you aware of thoughtcrime, and that we don't do that in the USA?
desktop and tablet/smartphone are not the same market, at all. one can have a desktop for a variety of reasons, and a tablet as well. There's nothing that says one is exclusive of the other. What also shares the market of the tablet/smartphone is the netbook, which is basically going away aside from the ultrabooks which are trying to separate from the netbook market but coming up against the desktop market to some degree.
yeah sorry, but if you think apple is the one being cited by gartner and being used in enterprise exclusively in some fantasy situation, you're fairly mistaken.
it's pretty much android/apple/windows/solaris/unix, which is pretty much the same as it's been............ever.
man, you sure are strong on facts, huh. the "little shit" (Strong words there) made statements that you'd expect for a teenager, and that's as far as it went. it appears you might be misleading and entirely wrong.
so watch out, because apparently this satanic symbol (if you can even call it that) = TERRORIST THREAT!
or not, because society is not as stupid as the cops who overreact, apparently. They couldn't even find anything to pin the kid with aside from his facebook.
it's a "begging the question" troll, so I hope it's not a surprise that a headline based on a flawed premise results in a flawed response.
Google glass may fail, or take off. It's a bit early to know for sure, but considering these random anonymous first time submitted with all the google glass gloom it's clear that there are no facts abound. It's all hypotheticals and is thankfully debunked by a comment with over 1800 upvotes on wired.
I wouldn't worry too long. With the amounts of money MS is losing (and the evidence they build against themselves for antitrust), they won't last very long at this rate, with investigations underway. Continuing to push for patent settlements at the same time as antitrust investigations into patent trolling is probably the worst decision to possibly make.
Except there's no basis in facts here. The judge has done something no court has *EVER* done. They basically legislated what people do via normal bargaining.
Don't expect this to hold water for even a second once it gets appealed. There's no basis for such a decision. I'd be willing to bet any amount of money on that.
Meanwhile, we have an article from Florian Mueller about a flawed premise: Microsoft's competitors. What else is there to say when you're quoting a fraudulent man paid for by Microsoft? I would get more factual information from MS asking them their opinion of Google. At least that'd be honest.
This is a Florian Mueller article. It has no merit, no validity, and should be taken with the same grain of salt you'd take one of those folks who said the world would end in 12-12-2012.
I agree with you, 100%. It's still a positive step forward but "if you get a phone via loan that will require a contract" is really all they have to say to make things less confusing.

this is not something a: for you to judge (we have judges for that) and b: that occurred.
so, the issue there remaining is?
hey it's not all bad. the security exploits come free of charge! You also have no guarantee they'll be patched, ever! enjoy!
well, what about the ipad mini?
that's a piece of crap (hardware wise) aimed at android, and that's what....$249? $300?
I get what you're saying and I agree, apple doesn't show much desire to enter a low margins situation in general.
uh, what?

don't expect that to change, probably ever.

oh hey guys! look! it's a troll!
if I worked for google why the hell would I be posting here?
they used Microsoft.
As in, why they gave Microsoft a pass on tax dodging and are focusing specifically on Google?
it's called vested interests.
lol. record quarterly profits?
reality disagrees with you. http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20130124-717358.html
maybe you should look at their marketshare.
it's easy to shuffle numbers to show a profit, it's not easy to shuffle numbers for marketshare.
he was the one who said SCO owns linux. he's the same one who's not only on Oracle's payroll, but on MS's as well.
proof/cite from a valid and honest website?
I've never heard of moto threatening to sue their competitors.
maybe you should see how often they win lawsuits, and how they are making money hand over fist quarter over quarter. Google doesn't mess around.
Let me tell you who isn't doing any of the above (as in success):
the entire group that is colluding against google, aka oracle/ms/apple, among others.
You can almost pinpoint their exact downfall to the moments with which they declared google an enemy and stopped investing in new technologies.

gawker blogs are the same amount of garbage they have ever been. That hasn't changed.

why yes, google. they must be the focus. *facepalm*
obvious troll is obvious.

you can't enforce a termination fee without a contract enforcing it.
Don't know. Have you ever heard of the internet? http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/faster-zombies/ would show that you're full of shit, and that's from over a yera ago.
The issue is about good coding, not about some magic "linux/osx doesn't do as well" thing. You're a TWIT, not someone that understands technology.
