  1. What about HDMI to DVI Cables? Illegal as well? on DisplayPort-To-HDMI Cables May Be Recalled Over Licensing · · Score: 2

    http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/hdmi-dvi-cables/index.htm Are these then also illegal because they fall outside of the narrow definitions of HDMI connectors on both ends.

    Well, many years in, and it still works for the iPhone. Your comment really only boils down to: Those who don't like Apple products will not buy Apple products, and will be satisfied with their smug opposition to Apple products by purchasing a copy of an apple product from another manufacture.

    To be fair, it still doesn't do what the iPhone 4 does, exactly. And the GGPs post is acting like developers won't develop apps with the new hardware enhancments in mind because it might alienate the ipad 1 owners. This happened with the phones, it will happen with the iPad. Heck it happens with computers when the OS or hardware changes. The GGP post is stupid.

  15. Many vs. one. . . on Android Passes iPhone In US Market Share · · Score: 1

    OK, I'm tired of people acting like Android isn't locked down to the end user as much as the iPhone is. The only real difference is The phone/OS manufacturer locks down the phone, and requires a jailbreak to get it out of this state, for iOS devices, and Android based devices are locked down by each and every one of the service providers instead, and still require a jailbreak to get it out of this state. Oh, and. . . . Since when is it a news story when an OS, that is on many many difference models of phones, each with different features, and appeal to difference people shouldn't have higher market share than an OS that is on one phone. One phone. Make a big deal about it if any other single phone sells more than the iPhone, and it might mean something.

  16. Re:Namecheap on The Ascendancy of .co · · Score: 2, Informative

    You would make more money, if you just went to enom and got your own reseller account to manage all of your domains.

    That's what I did, and now my company provides and sells domains to all of our website design customers as a part of our packages.

    Why go to a secondary reseller, when you can become one yourself and take out a middle man.

    namecheap doesn't offer all of those nice services. They are a reseller, and enom actually provides that service to all of their resellers. A very handy ability to resell.

  20. Citrix is the way to go. XenApp - XenDesktop on IE6 Addiction Inhibits Windows 7 Migrations · · Score: 1

    Your on the right track. The best solution for maintaining those applications that are dependent on IE6 (which is stupid from a developers perspective), would be to utilize Citrix XenApp.

    Notice: I work for a major IT implementation and support company in the Omaha, NE area with a national customer base.

    Many companies are migrating to virtual servers, virtual application publishing, and virtual desktops. Multiple reasons for this. servers is an easy one by now, so no need to discuss that reasoning. Applications and desktops, is where virtualization really gets moving right now. Give the end user a thin client (desktop or laptop models), or allow the end user to provide their own device, laptop, desktop, iPhone, iPad, agnostic of what OS is installed.

    Then use Citrix XenDesktop, or Citrix XenApp and publish or push the work silo desktop, or applications only to the end user's device. Do, or don't support the user's end point devices, but focus support on the applications and servers only.

    We are implementing this in a large number of corporations, and we use it internally as well. It is the way to go, hands down.

    Just because you can use wikipedia to find out that one fact about something, that is not all wikipedia is designed for, so if that is all you want to know, and you don't want to accidently find out more, and get a spoiler from a site that will tell you "everything about anything" then don't look there.

  23. Re:The Internet is not a Mall on AT&T Says Net Rules Must Allow 'Paid Prioritization' · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I don't agree with your analogy.

    I agree with the fact that Paid Prioritization is the opposite of net neutrality, however I don't think your argument is helpful.

    The internet is more like a highway that connects you to destinations (Websites).

    The internet is not the websites themselves, and no information is stored on the internet, information is stored at destinations (servers) and the internet is the avenue that you can use to access that destination.

    AT&T is saying that they want to maintain the right to put up a toll, and charge the traffic on that toll, and provide different speeds for different types of traffic on that toll road.

    The problem is that AT&T wants to charge the destinations the toll, to allow the traffic to reach their destinations faster. This is very different then what they already are doing which is charging the traffic (the end users) that use their ISP a rate for a specified speed of access.

    The argument is really a double dip. Charge the driver, and charge the destination they are wanting to get to, in order for that driver to get to that destination faster.
