Gamers, what a myth. All this bullshit can be done on a PC, or laptop.. Oh look, i have a cell phone, oh look, I have a game boy, oh look.....who gives a shit! It is nothing more than a nickel and dime ploy by these tech trash. Get a life, and a job. Support a family, and pay your bills. All this is nonsense. Go out and get some sun and excercise, you fat bastids.....

Rubenstien Phuy!

So you ran the company into the ground. Made it easy for a take over. Sold it to HP to save your hide. You are one despicable dirt bag! I could have run the company better than you. Anybody could have. I loved my Palm Pre, and I was about to get the tablet. Not any more. Damn, I mis my Pre.

I would rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.......

Re: Why would a sane person buy one?

I want nothing to do with Facebook, or anything else of their easily hacked crap. You must be mad, nay, insane to have such an addiction.

Re: Apparently, we are special

Wha! You can't print in white? Hmmmm, have you tried black paper with a color ink cartridge? Oh, sorry, talking about the cave dwellers.....

Re: This is all too familiar.

I really do use Linux! OpenSUSE, in fact. Have I been problem free? No! But a lot was due to my inexperience at the time. After being tortured by Red Hat, openSUSE pretty much converted me since ver. 6.3, over 12 years ago. Besides, it is always best not to touch a 3-5 year old pc. The HD is about ready to crater, and it usually happens just when you have everything about right. No sir. No Mas!

Re: This is all too familiar.

There are no truer words written than what you state Lars. I have been a Technologist for 30 years. Yes, even before computers. What we have here are Cave people wanting the newest technology without the brains to run it. Attoo the caveman is bitching " Ohhh, someone help Attoo. Attoo need smart phone for work." The Company gives Attoo a smart phone. "Ohhh, someone help Attoo work phone. Attoo need computer for work". So the company provides a computer for Attoo's use. "Ohhh, someone help Attoo how computer work". This damned cave dweller has just commandeered, and inundated the entire IT staff. It is best to steer clear of these type people, and not waste your time. You will not get paid, and if you do, the paltry sum will not equal the years of torture you will have to endure. Been There!

All said and done, through Jobs vision, the Woz produced. It takes two to tango, and this was one hellova team.I miss Jobs, but I kind of wish Woz would come out of hiding.....

Re: Foolish response.

And the only way for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. Well, Elon Musk is a good man, and he did something to right a wrong. Broder should be writing about school plays, or girls soccer, not a review of a most admirable care, the Tesla S. He is woefully over his head.

Master Rod

Re: Foolish response.

Odd bad news does not happen. It is manufactured. Elon is merely providing data from the cars computer that correlates, substantiates, and verifies that what he says is correct(truth), and what the low rent reporter says is incorrect(lie). Besides, computers don't lie. People do.

Master Rod

Re: The Balance Of Evidence

Computers don't lie! Reporters do. Wow! Did you even finish school?

Master Rod
Thumb Up

There are many idiot journalists out there....

And Broder is one of them. I do recommend that Tesla not give out their cars for tests by biased individuals and journalists. That is why I dropped my subscriptions to Motor Trend, Road and Track, etc. Too much Bias and Whinning! Ohhh my God, it is not as fast as a Ferrari, nor as comfortable as a Bentley, nor as pretty as a Maserati. Nope, but my VW Jetta is fast -130mph, comfortable contoured seating, and elegantly simple design. These journalists are as lame, and arrogant as they come. To hell with them. Keep up the good fight Elon and Tesla. Hope to be able to afford one or two of your vehicles soon.

Viva Tesla!

Elon! You're a genius! Broder! your an idiot! There! That is the definitive. I would love for a university to bestow an Honorary PhD to Mr. Musk. Any man who can cover his tracks as he did, did damn well at research. Congratulations Elon and Tesla. As for the New York Times, what? You trying to over take Fox News in the bullshit department? Well, you still have a ways to go. As soon as I can afford it, I'm getting an S for me and the X for my wife. Woo! Hoooo! No more gasoline bills!

Master Rod

Re: Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk arguments are pathetic

Your comment is pathetic. You have already made up your mind to speak negatively of the Tesla S. Yes! You need to charge it full before use. You don't say, well, I'm only going to the store, then go on a joy ride with the vehicle half discharged, then complain it left you are out in the woods somewhere! Only an idiot would go half cocked in a half charged EV. Stick to what ever it is you know about, and go drive your gas hog. Good Day.!

Master Rod

The only thing they are doing is stealing the money. Always a crisis, bigger bonuses, money exchanged hands, rotten deals made. Remember Palm? Jon Rubinstein destroyed the company and sunk it so low, HP could buy it for a song. but being big corporations with big money, there was a lot of money being thrown around for a company that was down. Then Ole Jon gets hired by HP. When they find out what a piece of work he is, they fire him. There is something truly wrong with this company. The board and C's look only after themselves instead of the investors, and workers. So in reality, to hell with HP!

Master Rod

Wow! I can just Imagen what that looser Verwaayen's exit bonus is gonna be? It seems the bigger the looser, the bigger the bonus? ...and you wonder why there is no profit.

Master Rod

New Windows?

Windows RT?! What! Another operating system? Wow.....Hmmm, I will stick to my Linux. As for Arm Processors, OH, now they have quad cores. That only means you can do more things more slowly........It it is not AMD, it's crap.

Linux Laptop

The best thing I ever did with a laptop is format the hard drive and install openSuse Linux. Once I got the graphics driver from Nvidia, all went well. I have had it now for 3-4 years. Presently running openSuse 12.2, with an addon 22 inch screen. Although dual-core, 64 bit, and 2gig of ram for only about $300, I would like to upgrade to a quad-core AMD processor, and 4-6 gig of ram. I have never had to defrag, antivirus check, or clean the hard drive. All in all, and Linux is an excellent OS when set up right the first time. Enjoy..

Groupoff..

Hmmm, Let's see. Shares in the gutter, check. Make company an easy takeover by another company, check. Rip off both company's money once this one is bought up, check! Yep, I am the man for this job........Can it be that company is nothing more than a ship of fools?

HP - Unreal

HP, what a sham of a company. They have the worst board on the planet. HP has become synonymous as a den of uneducated crooks, and thieves. We are out of the hardware business, and into the software business. Oops! Wrong. We are in the hardware business trying to build up the software business, but just bought the Palm phone business. Rats, we trashed Palm, the phone business, and bought a software business. Nuts, the software business is nothing but code on paper not worth much really. Hmmm, Did I say we still make crap hardware? I would love to run the company for one week. I can guarantee a roller coaster ride with excellent results.

Re: Minimum Legal Payout@Ironclad

Yep, typical British....Overpaid executives that walk around mumbling incoherently with their hands behind their backs...What is the point, and who cares. RIM makes some pretty obsolete products anyway. Maybe they should take a look at the Galaxy Note II. Now there is some real Samsung genius...

RE: Re: mmmm.......

What?! The Raspberry Pi uses an ARM chip?! Yeeeeuuuukk! After buying two arm powered tablets, which were by the way, worthless and weak, I have no need for such a limp wristed processor. ARM processors belong in toys, not computer hardware. If these damned manufacturers would quit nickel and dimeing us, maybe human kind could get ahead. AMD has some strong low power consuming processors. why not use them?

Technologist

So what happens when there are two different patents numbers on the same type invention? Yep, nothing more than feeding the sharks. AFAICS is useless without the power to mediate between patent holders. I mean, just how close to one another does it have to be to be different?

Windows on ARM is crap!

So let me get this straight. You have a Windows 8 OS running on a crap ARM processor designed for toys that does not play well with its PC cousins......Hmmm, reminds me of a piece of crap Linux derivative OS for kids, I won't mention any names Android, running on a 500 Mhz ARM processor designed for toys that does not play well with its PC cousins. What the hell is it with these manufacturers. They are going backwards, and the public is too stupid to know better. We have quad core laptops from AMD and cough! Intel running true OSs such as Linux, and cough! Windows. My question is why can't the manufacturers just give us a powerful X86 based 7 or 10 inch Tablet? Why are they even screwing around with all this other incompatible, slow ass shit!

Master Rod

Laughable!

Hahaha ahh hahaha! Oh, that was a good one. Hell, NASA can't even build a decent flying saucer, much less a space station. Yeah, I know, just keep the money coming. Well, all I can say is they better get off their lazy butts and do some work like the rest of us. Please, please, don't jump up and down showing me pictures of the Mars rover etc. We can't get there! Alright? You have pissed off more money than most third world countries. So, Shaddaaap, and build me a flying saucer. That or close NASA down and have Virgin Galactic build us what we need. They seem more capable at this point.

Why Bother?

Android and WebOS are toys compared to a true operating system. Why not just port GNU/Linux to the devices. You would have just so much more usage from these devices. Plus, the apps are free and can easily be installed from repositories. Oh! Silly me... The processors in these devices most truly suck! They are inferior even to the Lowliest of Lows from Intel and AMD. Very little Ram. Poor battery life. Somebody! Please get me a 10" tablet that is a phone, has 2 Gig of ram, dual-quad core processor, 32 Gig SSD, OpenSuse installed, WiFi, Audio in and out, Microphone, 2 USB Ports, Bluetooth, HDMI, and Monitor out put, SD card slot with a removable battery. This is the winning configuration right here. This will dust off most of the sad tablets out there. Where do I buy one for $500?

Master Rod

Gofer it!

The wager is on Anonymous Coward. $1 says that some company of fools will offer this turd the Brass Ring. He has absconded with millions, why even bother to work?http://www.theregister.co.uk/Design/graphics/icons/comment/linux_32.png

Master Rod

Who left the fools in charge?

Well said! Greedy control freaks tend to hire lower forms of greedy control freaks. What a devolution. I feel sorry for the investors.

Master Rod

Jon is Evil....

I can't believe that you are so ignorant that you can't see through the lines. Rubinstein does nothing more than run companies into the ground making them easy for take over. He's never worked a day that prospered for a company. I could run a company into prosperity in no time. I've done it before. Where is my beloved Palm OS, PDA's, Palm phones? In the toilet, that's where. He and his ilk need to be strung up for fraud, and deceiving the public. I bought many a Palm PDA for business use. The same with the Palm Pre. Talk about a loss! I'm not at all happy with that clown.

Yo! Brain....

I just don't like people getting into my email. That is why we have passwords...Ahhh! shit! That's it..Change my passwords.....Muchas gracias, bola de pendejos....:-)
