    Internet Explorer Passes 55% Market Share in January

    IE 9 was never forced onto PCs. It's always been an Optional Update. So even if you have auto updates on, you wouldn't get IE9 unless you manually told windows to get it. Just sayin' Cheers,

    Documents Prove Samsung Did Not Copy Apple?

    Apple doesn't have a patent on the icon... See Apple Corp. v. Xerox. UIs are not patentable, and that wasn't even at the center of this case. Most of the "Judgment" came from ridiculous and incorrect assessments of which patents Samsung violated. For instance, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was to be...

    Apple to file for An Injunction, Samsung Files Appeal

    If you read the coverage from reporters in the courtroom, and you scan the actual court documents, you'll notice that the jury didn't read the instructions from the judge when they initially handed in their verdict. This is why they somehow magically found a way to give Apple money in cases...

    The collection only contained all of the Japanese(!) games released for each of the consoles, not the EU and NA exclusive releases. Cheers,

    Recommend me a Mechanical Keyboard

    I have a 1986 IBM 1390120, and a new Unicomp (otaku), and I have to say I like the Unicomp more than the Model M, if only because the springs are significantly lighter, and the new unicomp makes MORE noise than the '86. Buckling spring is really the great joy to type on, especially as a...

    Mechanical Keyboard Guide

    Ok... 7bit isn't a mod, for one thing. Second of all, yes it's true that the never ending GB of R4 is moving to DT, big deal... Regardless, that does not translate into there being no more GH. It will come back, just not for a few days. Cheers,

    Mechanical Keyboard Guide

    Not really. The site is going to be down for (allegedly no more than a few days), while the new backend is rewritten (c ya vbb 4). It was confirmed that the r00tw0rm team was after the domain name. It's definitely a misnomer to label GH as dead. All the major content was saved, but due to some...

    Don't Check Geekhack.org For A While

    Nobody knows for sure I guess. I think the mods and iMav especially just generally had enough of his antics. The contributions he was making just weren't worth the frustration, at least for them.

    Don't Check Geekhack.org For A While

    Yes, he was perma banned there. No need to be using derogatory remarks, you just might get yourself reported there... an organization named r00tw0rm has been attacking the site over the past 2 days. Today they were attaching an auto download trojan to the homepage in the morning, and this...

    Keyboard for DAD

    Hmm, I would suggest a Unicomp Quite Touch, but that has F keys and a numpad. So you want a TKL rubber dome? You could go for something like Topre...

    WTB - Buckling Spring Keyboards

    I am looking for Buckling Spring keyboards! They can be IBM's, Lexmarks, old Unicomps, whatever! Especially interested in any boards that have the Industrial Grey case or are of the Space Saving (no number pad) variety. Price depends heavily on condition and rarity, so please PM me/reply to...
