Behind all the cool design and fancy colors, Apple is still an opaque black box. Their essential motto could be termed as you don't need to know - which is very attractive to the layman user , but abhorrent to a true computer engineer.
So explain to me how Apple is special in this regard? Microsoft is the same way.
According to various things I have read/heard on the radio, promotions of that sort are extremely rare, and appointing someone new as Chief Justice is mroe likely.
True, you don't usually do major brain-surgery on an IBM mainframe, as IBM isn't stupid enough to make severe enough changes to AIX to force a major overhaul on a regular basis, but (a) that limits how AIX can evolve (which will eventually kill it), and (b) major overhauls are a part of the computer business and do happen - you can't avoid them.
Um, IBM mainframes don't run AIX. They run z/OS, Linux, z/VM, TPF, or VSE. IBM has been able to make huge changes to these OSs and still maintain compatibility.
I don't think you will hear from a developer. Those contracts are private matters! Even $10-15 per disc sounds high. nintendo used to charge $20 for each cartridge since they manufactured the cartridges themselves.
Keep in mind that each of those console sales will probably have at least one game sale in the first year.
What's the licensing fee for a copy of a PlayStation game? If it's $25 / disc, the average PS3 owner will need to buy 4 games over the life of the platform for Sony to make its money back. $25 / disc sounds REALLY high, though.
My point is that we're talking two different numbers. Market share and installed base are not the same thing. Mac owners frequently keep their computers longer AND buy more software. I don't have any recent statistics to back either claim up offhand, unfortunately, but if the market for Mac products was only 3% of the general PC products market, there wouldn't be any cross-platform products, period.
I've had my iPod since last summer, and I have had to send it back 4 times. The first time it was replaced. Now, they just won't fix it when I send it in.
OK, you're the second person I've seen say this. Where do you get "30 seconds"? That isn't mentioned in the article or in the summary. Perhaps you are misinterpreting 30fps?
China could not destroy the US economy without destroying their own. We are the biggest consumer of their products. If they force the US's hand in declaring an embargo all their money dries up too.
Are you kidding? Teachers get laid off by the bucketful whenever there are budget problems. Adminstrators just shove more kids into the same classroom. Fantastic.

The 65C02 used in the II line was obviously a lot more limited than the 68000 series in the Mac (though I believe the IIgs used a different chip)
Yes, the IIgs used 65C816, the same processor as the SNES. You could clock it down to 1 MHz if your old II software didn't run properly.
Um, I didn't say it was a lot. (Did I?)

Wrong
MS has nearly 65 billion dollars in total assets. Google has around 3.3 billion.
Gee, two recent consecutive very non-trollish comments modded -1 troll! I wonder if someone is stalking me!
Basically it ties more people to the iPod [which is good for Apple].
Podcasting doesn't tie people to the iPod in any form.

That could be a leak in the freenet client, no?

Apple buying NeXT?

You need to understand the definitions of "explain" and "promote". Sheesh. Political advertising is never an adequate explanation.
There is a license plate 1337 in RI. He didn't quite look the type though.
