79% vs 89%

Let's see... 79% of app developers are happy with Android vs 89% for iOS.

Not a huge difference it seems to me, so that makes the headline pure link bait.

A bit too much absolutism and arm waving for me, but agree with the trends. Office on iOS just eliminates another reason for sticking with Windows.

My iPad sits and gathers dust, with my Air is busy all day.

It's pretty much agreed now that nearly every star has planet(s).. and as there are 100billion stars in our galaxy and 100billion galaxies... that's a lot of planets!

Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 DNA splice is on - report

JeffinLondon

Daft

Squeezing 100million lines of x86 code into an ARM-based phone are they? All I can surmise that the Win CE kernel had grown so far out of date that amazingly, it was cheaper to port Win 8 than to upgrade

CE.

Doesn't say much for whoever was managing the CE code base....

Russia and NASA plan to COLONISE the Moon

Coolio!

Hey..... Newt is high on space, so maybe we can get past this current flopping about and get serious about going back to the land of green cheese.

Call it ISS - North, invite in all the ISS partners plus China and let's have a go!
