"It's a negative story about exploiting Chinese labour and it doesn't mention Apple once.

Not believable."

And this is because everyone knows Apple has absolutely no problems with its Chinese manufacturing plants. What's you point?

There...now Apple is mentioned TWICE. Happy?

Koh is an idiot.

She has also decided that LinkedIn is not "...an electronic communication service (ECS)."

"In a 27-page decision, District Judge Lucy Koh, of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, ruled that LinkedIn cannot be sued under the SCA because the company is neither a remote computing service (RCS) nor an electronic communication service (ECS). [...]"

Really? I suppose no one communicates via LinkedIn? News to me.

And not a "remote computing service" either? How is that?

Re: AC @ 18:21 GMT

"Once you've had an Apple laptop everything else looks a bit crap. Often the actual laptops look passable, but then they supply a really ugly black brick PSU. Apple's magsafe adapters are much nicer in terms of design."

Really? Well...you're wrong.

I have both an Intel MacBook Pro and a Dell Studio XPS 16 laptop, and the Dell PSU is HALF the size & weight of the one for the MBP. And the power cord storage on the PSU for the MBP is non-existant, whereas the Dell PSU has a very nice ability to wrap around itself, and be secured with a rubber strap.

And the Dell laptop outperforms the MBP...by a lot.

Re: Bad news for MSNBC

And since Comcast took over NBC...it has COMPLETELY ruined several channels I used to watch.

The "Weather Channel" rarely gives weather reports any more. Just hour after hour of crap programming about fireworks, Alaska pilots, lifeguards, and other totally useless drivel. And the buffons now working "on air" are pathetic. Al Roker? What an arse. And let's not forget "The Italian Stallion", Jim Cantore. What a Narcissistic piece of work he is. And someone want to get Stephanie Abrams some De-Caf coffee please??!! Holy crap...she is annoying.

The "Versus" channel used to have lots of good sports programming, it now is filled with too many "talking heads" from NBC who are brain-dead.

"Universal Sports" has disappeared completely from the cable system...another really good sports channel gone.

And it goes on...and on. No wonder NBC's ratings are in the toilet. Its programming sure is.

I've been 30...twice so far. Now started working towards the third time. Not sure I'll make it that far...but as long as I stay away from all of this lame social networking crap...think I have a far better chance.

Refuse to use Farcebook, Twitter, or anything else like it. Totally uninterested.

Yep. Ain't going to happen...'cause Steve said so.

"The reason we [won't] make a 7-inch tablet isn't because we don't want to hit that price point, it's because we think the screen is too small to express the software," Jobs said on Monday's quarterly earnings conference call. "As a software driven company we think about the software strategies first."

No..."we all" do NOT know what "everyone" thinks about them? How can YOU make a blanket statement about people you don't even know. And no...I don't drive one of those vehicles...but if I did, so what?

So what make do you drive? Whatever it is, you are plainly an arsehole.
