"But the ONLY thing Intel uses of AMD that is known is X64" - No. AMD and Intel each have hundreds (if not thousands) of patents in regards to chip technologies. Fab process, cache design, NB, SB...It's not just a license to use x86 that each hold over each others head.
No, it's not null and void but Intel has a year to approve. They would lose their AMD64 license. Interesting to note, the new agreement also expires if AMD ever reaches 35% market share (which is extremely unlikely before the 2015 expiration date.)
For Heins, RIM’s ace in the hole is BlackBerry Messenger, which he says delivers mobile messaging capabilities that are unique in the smartphone market.
“[BBM is] what attracts people to BlackBerry,” he said. “This is our BlackBerry experience we can deliver — there’s no other system out there where you can read, write, check if you’ve read my message. We want to make it as differentiated as possible. Going cross platform and opening up would be losing that advantage. I think there’s a huge difference between somebody who just provides the phone and the hardware and someone who provides services.”
Did someone note give Heins the memo about iMessage which gives a identical BBM experience integrated with the SMS app?
AMD is massively ramping up their HSA and OpenCL teams, and is very challenged in finding individuals in this sector.
Go to their careers website and search for CUDA, the relevant experience will help you get a job in the dev or QA side (both places they need to fill).
As someone who regularly has to purchase modern machines, I'll challenge the statement it's exactly the same. Being able to click anywhere on the pad versus a specific point is of tremendous value. It's hard to go back. I'll also state the sensitivity and responsiveness is noticeably different, especially from HP's.
There was no reason he shouldn't consider them, especially with his price range. The fact she doesn't even want to shop for the laptop means she less interested in the purchase than he is. The MacBook is good at most of what 80% of the population wants to do - browse the web, check email, and manage their music.
There is the key that people gloss over. "No extra cost". You forget the (literally) billions of dollar it takes to put the infrastructure in place. It's illogical to think that money came from no where, and doesn't' have a value that should be properly compensated. While $20 may be on the high side, it gets really old to hear the "no extra cost" argument. Companies invest in infrastructure to make profit, news at 11. AT&T made $3.5 billion last year. Apple made $26 billion. If you are going to harp on someone for charging to much for too little, pick a different target.
"Second of all, the original iPhone 2G, which I have, is definitely not supported by iOS5, or even iOS4 for that matter. What are they smoking?"
The graph represents 3 years after release, which was up until June 2010. IOS 4 came out 8 Days before the end of that three year cycle. So, yes, they should have lopped off a bit of the last bar on the original iPhone, but generally speaking the graph is accurate.
Again, as I mentioned - what if the person doesn't have shame?
The vaccination argument holds true to a point. We are discussing a psychological change tho,not a physical one. There is considerably less harm with this app, then say...an app with instructions on making Colloidal water. Colloidal water can physically turn you blue. Forever. Will that app be banned?
In all seriousness, why take this down? The only people who would legitimately download this are people who are uncomfortable with being homosexual (for whatever reason - I wouldn't, but there may be some). Why would you want to deny those people that opportunity? It may not be society or their family that pressures them to want to be heterosexual - it could be individual free will. I can totally get why the word "Cure" would be offensive - that would insinuate that being gay is a disease. Rename the app to something more PC, but I don't think pulling the app is correct.
DISCLAIMER
I have several gay members of my family, have no discontent or ill will toward them - LOVE THEM TO DEATH. Do NOT believe that gay is a disease. My point is simply about choice.
He only BCC'd the other persons boss. The To: and From: and CC: fields would be populated in the email to the other person boss, and he can click reply all and email every who wasn't BCC'd. Outlook by default would also show the original email, and the subordinate could look at the To/CC fields, and see his boss wasn't listed, and was BCC'd. Managers make this mistake, directors and above have generally made this mistake at a manager level and learned their lesson.
What's hilarious is all of the people who forgot the expected base price of the iPad would be $999. Everyone was shocked when it was half of that. And now tablets are expensive?
Assuming that you do have the staff and infrastructure in place to fix, test and compile the code, you and your organization are subsequently forked from the official release. A scenario which is can be just as bad than waiting for MS to fix.
Once you code a solution to your defect, the proposed fix still has to be submitted, and may not be accepted by the developers. This could continue on for months, or even years of never implementing your fix. The onus is on your org, then, to repeatedly merge in changes, recompile, retest, and re-release your forked code base.
Again, this is all on the assumption you have the resources/knowledge to actually code a solution. Which many organziations do not.

Seeing as Uber is largely funded by Google and driverless taxi's are, in fact, the end game of Uber - I don't think there will be much.
Why couldn't they have used the amazing Carl Sagan video?
The point is the discrimination nature of the ban. You can read a book, look at a physical datebook, do a Suduko puzzle. Why is a Kindle singled out?

Wait a second, you're saying they have to allow me to tether my iPad on AT&T's LTE network?

People fully expected the ipad to have a $1000 price tag upon its release, and blew away expectations with it's price point. Why is it a premium?

Supplemented by the fact the article specifically mentions that fact. :-)

What would happen if the offensive code was simply commented out, allowing downloaders to easily add the offending code back in?

Because Azure is a software platform as well. You can by your own POD's from HP and then run the Azure stack on top of it.
Twitter does't kill people, tweets kill people.
There are markets other than America. Orkut is huge in Brazil and India, over 60 million users and one of the 100 most trafficked sites in the world.
The app didn't pretend to cure homosexuality, it provided information about the organization that pretends they can.
Seriously? It was just a link farm? Wow.
