Stop

Just stop...

It's not okay to copy.

Neil Anderson
Meh

Maybe his mute button accidentally got pressed?

Neil Anderson
Happy

Whoa

Loss of 5,000 RIM jobs. Kind of writes itself, doesn't it?

Neil Anderson
Joke

Re: Bloody hell...

The dollar coin was named after our then prime minister -- Brian Muloonie.

Facepalm

Shipped doesn't equal sold

RIM said they shipped 200,000 PlayBooks. They didn't reveal numbers of actual sell through.

Little wonder

It wasn't so very long ago that anybody wanted to help Apple. Apple's suppliers and software makers turfed the company aside and left them along the roadside for dead. Can't really blame Apple for only wanting to rely on itself.

Grenade

Whoops!

Fragged!

More

Sounds like China Unicorn is going to get a lot more customers.

Don't forget Chrome

And before long, Chrome will be hitting the low end.

Alert

No Kidding

Who would have guessed the iPhone would be so remarkable at handling phone calls?

Neil Anderson
Boffin

I wonder

how the number of hours of use for each laptop brand compares?

Neil Anderson

BoxOffice

Wasn't BoxOffice removed because it was crashing iPhones? Regardless, it's now back at the Apps Store renamed as Now Playing.

Neil Anderson

Ouch

Whoa ... taser me now.

Neil Anderson
Jobs Horns

Attributes

Wow, think he could have squeezed one more adjective into that paragraph?

Neil Anderson

Positively

I hate the smell of burning dust.

Neil Anderson

Italy for sure

"Italy is very likely, the population is big and they are massive phone users."

And they're already super regarding gestures.

Son of Sam

Forgive him Father Steve. He was an atheist insomniac dyslexic who had just been up all night wondering if there really was a Dog.

Whistlers

Is that a lot of CIOs whistling in the dark I hear?

Neil Anderson

All those iPhone buyers

are returning their phones in droves. See here:

Latin plurals

You are correct, Craig. The plural of virus is viruses. It is not viri, or even worse, virii. True, the word comes directly from Latin, but not all Latin words ending in "us" have "i" as their plural. Viri is the Latin word for 'men' — plural of vir, man; root of the English "virile". There is no written attestation of a Latin plural for virus.

Bootnote?

Shouldn't that be Boobnote?

Neil Anderson

Lucky for me

I have hands the size of a 12-year-old so it'll be easy to type on that teensy iPhone keyboard. And I fit inside sexy little Italian sports cars pretty good too. :)

Christian rap?

He was a closet Metallica fan listening to "Ride the Lightning" followed in heavy rotation by "Fade to Black."

Skype on the iPhone

Tom Keating of TMC Labs has come up with a complicated remote-control work-around to achieve something every computer geek wished for: the ability to run Skype on an iPhone.

Sounds like business apps are on their way too.

Washington DC

“DC's average murder rate 35.4”

Guess those politicians really do drive people homicidal.

Weather's great for flying

"I find it genuinely, cosmically, depressing that El Reg doesn't get the iPhone. A vulture chasing its own tail is so pitiful to watch."

Maybe they should fly over to America and scoop one up.

Guess old Elijah got his Page in history.

IT angle: He was a Windows ME user.

Is it possible to threaten someone if you don’t tell them?

Problem solver

I helped an 80-year-old set up her first-ever computer — an iMac. The first time she held the mouse she waved it around and pointed it at the screen like a TV remote.

No Video?

Excellent. Too bad it doesn't look like it has video. Video sure adds to the experience.

Is it possible for YouTube to automatically scan all uploads for malicious payloads or file types?
