Windows 7 made 64 bit mainstream and also has native TRIM support for SSD's.
Windows 8 better have something more than widgets or I'm guessing it will be dismissed as another Vista.
Reading this makes me wonder what kind of nazi prison state has the US become...tearing people's property apart looking for a plant? seriously effed up.
US gov doesn't care about piracy in this case. It was just an easy money grab. They will easily confiscate over $200 million in cash and assets from this.
I hope mobile devices become like PC's where you can buy just the hardware with no OS installed. I will choose the OS that infringes on the most patents :)
Would be nice to see Apple let their products do the talking...instead of their patent lawyers. As long as they beat down the competition they can keep making one-button devices for idiots.
I think Apple is going after the device makers because they have weaker patent profiles than Google. Apple may also want to see how they fare against the smaller fish before taking on the big kahuna.
Patent laws are outdated and hinder progress. It sucks that companies that make quality and innovative products have to worry about getting sued left, right, and center.
The WHO predicted we would all be dead from SARS by now.
If this kind of thing worries you then you had better stop eating, drinking, breathing, showering, because they will find something in everything that is "potentially carcinogenic".
The sgs2 will be my first smartphone when it is finally released in my country (Japan). Apple is scared and pissed off with this phone and that makes me want it even more :)
I live in Tokyo and I have to say I am pretty excited about picking up my new glasses-less 3d phone next month (sharp 003sh). Yeah, it's just on phones now, but soon it will be on laptops, then big screens for sure. 3d definitely isn't going anywhere, at least for the Japanese market.
If you're going to be surfing the net and doing stuff on the desktop then 1080p. If you're just watching movies then the larger 720p...unless you're going to sit with your face right in front of the tv.
First thing you have to do is seal up all "leaks" in your system. I just put duct tape over any places I could see light getting through (looking from the inside out).
I have an antec p180 with three exhaust fans located at the rear of the case (including the psu fan exhaust), so the air moves...
I support XP at work in multiple environments (IT contractor) but use Win7 at home. I don't think I would like to support Win7 though, as all of the useful settings are buried under an extra layer or two of GUI. It's almost like MS tried to hide them.
This ruling doesn't really have much to do with TPB, but more with the Danish government censoring the internet. I guess Denmark now joins Iran, China, and other countries that try to control the internet. Good luck with that.
Hate it, driving me crazy every time I need to search something. Switching to Bing for now. If I want to play Pacman I'll play it...but not when I'm searching for something. I searched "Google pacman annoying" and many others feel the same.
Google broke the sacred trust of not putting...
Played the game at my friends house for about an hour, but just couldn't get into it. Couldn't get into the first one either. Compared to MW2 and ME2 the graphics seem extremely poor. Maybe this is supposed to add to the atmosphere of the game...just doesn't work for me.
