    No but apparently to properly use FOSS, you need to "donate" at least $100,000

    Just google "Motorola Sues" all the links won the first few pages is google suing people. Several of these are in the past few months. Google is suing people all over the place.

    Here is Google suing Apple in August: http://www.forbes.com/sites/timworstall/2012/08/21/and-now-google-sues-apple/
    Here is Motorola Suing Apple in September: http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/news/googles-motorola-mobility-sues-to-reopen-apple-mobile-patent-lawsuit-417692

    Google has filed at least as many patent lawsuits as Apple and a lot more than Rockstar.

    Motorola sues someone new every day. They are one of the most offensive users of patents in the world. Your high on Google's BS.

    keep telling yourself that. It has been true for 10 years, but keep telling yourself that.

    It would be a lot more believable if Google did not belong to several similar consortiums. The ownsers are all practicing entities, I doubt the new law would apply.

    Whats wrong with Firewire? It was a lot better than USB and widely supported. In fact, in many areas it had much better support than USB2. (Was always better supported than USB1).

    No you couldn't have. Why did you feel the need to lie on /. What a reason to throw away your personal integrity. Go ahead and link your parts list. Make sure to only use new parts and not used CPUs and RAM like so many like to link.

    The GPU difference with Premiere stems from Adobe's mistaken focus on CUDA over OpenCL. They have since stated they working to remedy the problem.

    I am going out on a limb and saying you did not read even one of the reviews. Stay safe in your bubble of ignorance.

    We can assume you don't do any pro video work (In the field or in the studio). In the new one you pull out your case, plug the single thunderbolt cable into the back and call it a day.. Several companies already make portable racks preconfigured with the thunderbolt cable and everything.

    WTF are you talking about. The new Mac Pro has no cooling problems. You seem to live in some alternate reality. They were talking about a Linai case overheating.

    Not really, the $450 was vacated a while ago and there was already a lot of stories about that. There was a new trial with a new jury. Samsung claimed they should pay $52 million and Apple claimed like $342 million...

    Obvious but no one ever bothered to patent it before. Even if you looked at the silly link above from Samsung in 2006 (claiming it is prior art), not a single one of those phones has anything like the same proportions.
