How about IBM. They should have died years ago, but can still rely on the "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" fanboys. At least they still do some cutting edge R&D though, which is more than I can say for most tech companies.
Organizations that treat developers like standard "business" users are going to get systems developed as well and as fast as those created by standard "business" users. A developer needs at least elevated rights on a workstation.
Phone companies have no interest in supplying phones that allow you to use information (over their pipes) as efficiently as possible. The more you are online, the more it costs them in infrastructure. They have have to appear minimally better than their competition.
I've had good luck and have used pretty much every one I've ever bought, but I discovered something interesting. If the product is replaced under warranty, it effectively 'fulfills' the warranty obligation, and you may need to buy a new one for the new product. This may vary by store and country, but it's something to watch out for.
You can't. Open air vs. sealed headphones also require a vastly different volume level to block ambient noise (as mentioned in TFA). I switched to physical noise blocking headphones years ago when I found my ears ringing after I got off the bus. They work well enough at blocking noise that I now use them in my woodworking shop as well. I can listen to music at a relatively low volume even with power tools running.
They can also buy extremely overpriced processors just for Java that are only charged up-front, not by usage (zaap). They get you one way of the other.
One could argue that the design discourages the rear vents from being covered (from what I remember of seeing the design before) but yeah, I prefer audio/video equipment (and computer equipment) to be as FSM intended... black & rack mount.

Losing a weeks worth of work has very little to do with a rogue rsync script and a whole lot to do with a lack of backups.
Better known outside IBM as Consumer Raping and Pillaging.
The elves are annoyed with the Gnomes.
You've saved Christmas! (Thanks)
My mom says I'm cool.
That's why you rarely hear anyone say "This is the year of the Solaris desktop".

I thought that's why they made them out of a block of aluminum ....

What's worse is when Microsoft does not exist anymore at some point in the future
Not a huge worry. Everyone will be off enjoying the parties anyway.

'We just haven't tested what happens when you burn it,' one of the researchers quipped."
Riiiiighht. They're just waiting to patent electric rolling papers.
Do you want the information they do have protected by people who are really good at it, or by those who are no so good at it.
Exactly. Google's opinions are not as relevant as their actions. So far, so good.
They now make alternative fuel engines. They run on the screams and nightmares of users.
That's right, we 'Won't get Fooled Again' ... hmmm

Your privacy is something you give up (to a degree) for 'free' services. Each individual needs to decide for themselves whether the trade is worth it.
My name really is Neal Anderthal, you insensitive clod.
Then you've already been pwned.

Unless of course they charge for processor usage like they do generally do on their mainframes ...
I wonder how much they'll be gouging for these movies. I notice the price of normal Blu-ray disks still hasn't come down.
