well to be fair, MS DOES in fact have the highest MP count on their nokia phone. They do win that war. On the other hand it just shows that there is no excuse for a 1 MP cam to be on there
ok maybe im just old school but who actually used their tablet to take photos??? and can we stone them please??? Its bad enough when im at a concert and have 100 cell phones in ront of my face because someones taking a horrible photo the last think i want is something the size of my head in front of me doing the same
that isnt the argument here, i agree with that. the argument is that microsofts offerings are too expensive if they want to get some of the market, they need to lower the pro model price by a good 200 300 bucks
the issue to me is an RT tablet is pretty much useless and the pro is just to expensive. especially after you include a 130-200$ cover to it. Make me a sub 500$ pro and id be all over it
true, and although you are making a funny i have to assume that a good 80-90% of the population will have their right thumb as the correct finger, based on the way people hold their phones. there will be a few who think they are smart and use a pinky, and then you got us left handed people (when can I buy a good fucking mouse?!?!?!!!) but the majority will be a right thumb
they wouldn't let anybody else sell you a screen protector or a stylus without it having "Apple" on it.
Actually they dont. kinda. They do force you to license from them if you are going to sell a product for the iphone. they WILL go after you (if you are an american company) trying to sell screen protectors or cases withouth paying apple for the right to do so
but there is no need to disable it. inform the users that using untested cables could damage the product and if that is the case you are SOL. Same answer you gave but with the option.
yes and no. I could get windows 7 running on a machine with less hardware than I could with vista. I havent tried but i hear windows 8 does not need more specs as well. previous to windows 7 you would be totally correct however.
Except there is no proof that any of what you just said is true. sure there are youtube videos, but when i start trusting youtube videos instead of doing my own research based on the facts presented by unbiased scientists, well that makes me as dumb as most of my fellow americans
and clearly they do if there is a cnet article about it... or is this the same thing when jobs told us we didnt need copy and paste and apple fans agreed, until droid could do it and then apple fixed the issue with the next version of the iphone??
or people have better things to do than browse on their phones? any android phone ive had and ive had a new one yearly since the original moto droid, has had browser access to be extremely simple. its right there on the screen, cant really miss it. I find itunes to be bloatware that makes verizons NFL app seem like something i actually want personally.
and how does that negate from the sales? are you saying that most these people would buy dumb phones if they werent getting free androids? because since the 3gs the older model iphones have been sold for 99 bucks or free along side the new models.
if you really think all this started under bush, or even reagan, and not way back under wilson and FDR and others at the turn of the century,from many parties, do some reasearch before you spout off stuff you dont understand.
destroy the government that is spying on all of us?? I call that a good thing
take away your right to abortion? frankly if that is something that you base your vote on, you are an idiot anyway as that is not something that is a major voting issue, if you vote for or against someone based on abortion, you are a selfish prick.
abandon the poor to die? citation please. and no im not looking for "cutting food stamps" or "want to push grandma over a cliff" bullshit that is normally used.
has nothing to do with if they have any interest in doing it or not. with the news over the past few months its not unlikely that they would have FISA court orders forcing them to keep the info and turning it over. 5 months ago the majority of americans had no idea that the NSA was watching their every move (most of us here did) so why would you think that if apple had access to a vast fingerprint database, given to them voluntarily, that they wouldnt be forced to hand it over??
to be fair, if you need a cnet article to explain something as simple as get a flashing LED notification, something ive had on all my cell phones since 2000, thats a design flaw.
I am sorry but just because people who buy the iphone tend to browse more that does not mean that there is anything wrong with androids or that androids are somehow less phones. I really dont get the point you are trying to make here.
if you buy a PC in the stores, it will have fans and heatsinks. They will do the job MOST people want from it. but if one wants to take said car to the track, (push the CPU) they might make some upgrades. such as a cold air intake, picture an upgraded cooler on a PC as a cold air intake on a car, it doesnt add a whole lot to the deal,but it does make a difference.

off-beat or beat-off?
hey, if they want to track us, its only fair that they track the senators as well. frankly i think the NSA should be disbanded

It kind of puts the environmentalists in a bit of a clamor. They wont know which way to go with this
I actually prefered the 64 over the playstation at the time. it was gamecube when I switched systems
polygraph != truth vs lie, just to be clear, having said that wooooosh
til he get arrested for teaching xbox players how to defuse a bomb. I mean that HAS to be worse than teaching someone how to beat a polygraph right??

Id say it has more to do with the media covering up for the buffoon in the whitehouse

Perfect time for a car analogy
,but it does make a difference.
if you buy a PC in the stores, it will have fans and heatsinks. They will do the job MOST people want from it. but if one wants to take said car to the track, (push the CPU) they might make some upgrades. such as a cold air intake, picture an upgraded cooler on a PC as a cold air intake on a car, it doesnt add a whole lot to the deal
