Wow, you really don't understand it, do you. But don't let that stop your from posting your mangled rubbish.
RIM has always had a higher marketshare from Apple, since RIM has been around 4 times longer than Apple, and sell devices on all networks. They have over 50 million devices, iPhone has over 20 million.
Now, what you recently read was that there was a BB model that sold more in the last quarter than Apple, beating the iPhone for the first time since the 3G model. BB has always sold more than the iPhone, because they have lots of models.
Your statement indicates you are missing a major part of the issue. The people who were handing out these loans do not care if they blew up. They made money on getting loans, not getting payments. They made a lot of money. The people selling the CDS made money, lots of money. They don't care if the system crashed.
Yes, no doubt you will get modded down, unlike the 100s of other people who make exactly the same statement and keep getting modded up her.
I tried Vista, even for a few minutes, I will kill the next person who asks me to do so. I can not believe I feel so strongly over an OS, I have been programming Microsoft OS since MS-DOS 4.1, maybe even 3.3. I think Vista is the biggest piece of shit ever.
So if Microsoft fucks up and creates a piece of shit, you call that producing something radical?
If Microsoft releases the exact same OS with a few minor changes and a different theme, you consider that a completely new OS deserving of more money?
Conclusion - we look at it as above, differently to you. You seem to accept whatever Microsoft tells you, we look at the actual product and make our own decision. So someone who actually looks at the product is fussy in your book.
And before someone says that we jump on the bandwagon, and Vista ain't that bad, I will probably kill the next person that want me to do some testing on Vista to make it more compliant.
Wow, how does that even make sense?? Do they not control their own codebase? Do you really believe that shit. (and I have never heard it being said before).
They are already taking them on, they are already have a mobile platform with games on it. They already have the touch which anyone can by, and doesn't have the recurring costs of the iphone, and is positioned at the ds already.
What are you afraid that they will do? Lower the price? Put buttons on it (I would be very surprised)?
And your logic is that other people have tried, therefore nobody will take the crown from Nintendo...do you realize how stupid a statement this is? I am glad there are plenty of people out there who don't think the same way you do?
Small business hire a lot more people than big business, so go fuck yourself. Small businesses don't get to avoid taxes in this way. Fuck big business, they can all be destroyed, make way for small businesses.
The problem with your logic is that NOT ALL BUSINESSES DO THIS. It is very stupid to think so. So there are a lot of businesses that do pay the proper amount, and who are having to compete unfairly against those companies that don't.
So what will happen is that those dodgy companies will lose business, and the clean companies will gain more business.
Ok, so these companies invest in these complicated schemes to avoid paying taxes here, so they can spend more money on hiring people/expanding etc... So Obama is proposing to get rid of these tax havens, and reduce the tax to all companies.
So companies who weren't doing this, will pay less taxes, while companies who were employing these tactics will pay slightly more taxes, but not a great deal. They also save on lawyer/ tax experts.
I agree with you, but this isn't much of an argument. Anyone could say the same thing to support their argument, and a lot of them would really believe it.
They aren't really defending your country though, are they. They are attacking other countries, maybe defending your interests, but nobody is attacking the US.
People bring this up all the time, but for some reason the keep missing the obvious?
These peoples products make a lot of money. Where should this money go if not to the singers/actors/sport stars? To the companies? Should the RIAA/MPAA/Sport league get MORE money than they already do? So they can pay CEOs MORE money?? What a really stupid thing to say.
Why? Why do you just accept this as true. This can't keep going on, or we will be paid $100 and hour and house prices will be in the Billions, or perhaps you think this is a fine situation.
As in anything, in any job in the world, you need to define what crap means. Do you even have a job, that is such a silly statement.
Why don't we get rid of crap programmers, or crap engineers? The term is meaningless. To make such a statement just shows you have never been in a position of responsibility.

Wow, so you let you biophysics prof, diss you in your IT field? WTF does this guy know about IT?

Every time someone downloads from me, whether it is new or an update, I get a receipt. It is recorded in my daily/weekly statement.
But nowhere does it say that apple is using updates to count its 1 billion downloads. You are just making shit up.

Well, the difference is that the newbs now have a good reason to like Macs.
This is from someone who had a powerbook 170, and only recently got back onto the Mac bandwagon.
There are many books of the bible that are secret. There are also many writing through the ages that are kept secret in the Vatican.

Imagine how much more you will save if you keep skipping the upgrades?
What exactly do you need to upgrade for, I can't see any really strong reasons for my own team.

Right, so we are going to bomb Monaco which has NO INCOME TAX. And has has for a long time now.
This isn't about income tax.

Why, Clinton was the first president to get rid of the deficit in years. Sure he lied, but who cares, he was a great president in a lot of other ways.

It serves a different purpose, for example it is a lot easier to read these for long periods of time.
You might as well complain that you can get a screwdriver for $4 down at walmart.
Depends, when they set sexting as part of homework, I would question that.

Teachers and CEOs.
Very difficult to teach when kids don't obey authority, esp when you are dealing with >30 of them.
Very difficult to teach when the same kid questions everything you say, because he doesn't feel like learning anything today.
