When they respond this quickly, the answer had to come from the marketing, management and PR departments -- NOT engineering or manufacturing.
Which begs the question, have they even talked to manufacturing before putting out the press release?
My personal guess would be that the rank and file...
The power connector on those Dell's SATA drive is totally standard and the power connector on the DVD drive is the standard connector that has been used on laptops for years.
The power is sourced from the motherboard -- but a $3 SATA Y-split from Amazon solves the problem nicely. Additionally...
Which is why business machines need to be running Win 10 Pro or Enterprise and pointed at a WSUS server for updates rather than directly to Microsoft, with the "Do not connect to any Windows Update Internet locations" group policy enabled.
This gives total control of which updates are...
I call troll on this one. Getting nervous about your Boeing stock?
The time and effort required for the refurbishing process on the Falcon 9 continues to grow shorter and less involved with each launch as they continue to tweak and improve their designs. The manufacturing of the Merlin rocket...
Regardless of anyone's feelings on Elon Musk or whether or not this will drive business to SpaceX, the point is that SpaceX has proved that reusable rockets are possible and make sense. This is essentially a warning shot from Congress that other companies like Boeing had better be taking note...

I still use WinAmp almost every day for listening to music and I still have archives of almost every version from the first release to the last! Actually spoke with Justin Frankel at one point many years ago when we were trying to get him to license his MP3 integer decode routines to us for a...
It would be an interesting map...if it was even close to correct. Two of the providers they list for my address do NOT service the area. Additionally, the speeds they list for the ones that do are nowhere near correct.
I disagree totally. If this makes it easier for people to copy/clone the iPhone and forces Apple to reduce their prices, I'm all for it. I'm in favor of whatever results in the lowest prices and widest selection for consumers.

The best drill is one where you don't know it's a drill. It tends to help pinpoint the weak spots in the system VERY quickly. Given the current political climate with regards to North Korea, I personally suspect the guy who issued the alert did it because he was instructed to, which I have zero...
