WHY?
Do El Reg keep on reviewing games on inferior console versions rather than the PC versions?
Surely it is better to review a game at its best?
Paris, as she probably has an X-Station-Box

Reviewed on the XBOX 360? Why?
Looking at things objectively the PC is leagues ahead when it comes to playing FPS games. The mouse and keyboard combo hasn't been bettered to date and the graphics are always going to be so much better.
If you are going to review games on here why not view them in their best light?

Take two operating systems into the shower? Me, I just click and go.
I'm with Microsoft on this
Apple are taking the proverbial on this. I can't believe it even needs Microsoft to (wait for it) stand up for common sense.
Posted in Apple 4 Verizon. True
I agree
I went from an HTC Desire to an iPhone4. I still long for the Desire and I found it better in nearly every respect. The only problem was the battery life.
40% of revenue of indie software?
You have quoted 2dboy (an indie games developer) as your source. What you need to take into account the the effectively non existent supply of games for OSX.
2dboy launched World of Goo (which is a great game BTW) to the market. At a guess there is at least 100 times the competition in the Windows games market compared to the OSX market. I stands to reason that OSX gamers when presented with limited choice are going to spend their money in a more focused way.
As an aside I run Windows 7 on my home PC. Macs are great for boring stuff like designing websites and creating business logos but I use my Windows PC for fun stuff like Bad Company 2 and Dragon Age.

I picked mine up in Hove instead. They still have plenty of stick. I arrived at 7:13 this morning and got served at 11am. They had no problem selling multiple iPhones

LOL - Microsoft didn't steal MAC OS.
Both of Apple and Microsoft STOLE it from Xerox.

Hardly, the BBC has always been a leftie institution.

Restricting OSX to Apple Hardware IS monopolistic?
Surely it is?

The Lords of COBOL don't exist and there is only one true god.

Bad steve for sticking us with O2 in the first place.

IT Angle
I think iberico ham is fantastic - but what is the IT angle on this?
docx format
I had to setup a group policy on our server to force Office 2007 not to use docx. It was a nightmare haveing 99% of emails returned because the recipient couldn't open the attachment.
Who owns the network?
My understanding of UK contract law with regards to ISPs is that the level 1 ISP (ie BT in most cases) actually owns the network. Surely if the consumer is liable for how his connection has been used BT is thus equally liable for any offences committed on its network?
Has anybody suggested this crowd of cowboys sue BT as the owner of the network?
