    Microsoft Tweaking Windows 8 for Upcoming Beta Release

    2003 called, it wants its meme back -- you just have to look at Ultrabooks to see a bunch of inferior hardware on the Windows side trying desperately to come in as cheap as the MacBook Airs (I say this as someone who uses Win7 on a homebuilt rig).

    Twitter CEO Says Blocking Policy Over-Distilled

    But this approach is actually better in that Twitter gets a foot in the door and they only censor censored tweets for people inside of that country. Those of us in the free-ish world get to see the censored tweets. To me that sticks it to the censoring country pretty good.

    RIM Is Waaay Out Of Touch

    Did Apple Doctor Evidence in Samsung Patent Suit?

    Given the emails that have surfaced lately in the Oracle case, there are worse ideas, certainly. It would be a rough transition, but it would make things interesting :).

    Did Apple Doctor Evidence in Samsung Patent Suit?

    Pretty sad :( Wonder what the chances are of a disgruntled Android ODM working with it.

    Did Apple Doctor Evidence in Samsung Patent Suit?

    Also --- HP bought Autonomy, may spin off their Personal Systems Group (PCs) and is killing off WebOS phones and Tablets.

    Did Apple Doctor Evidence in Samsung Patent Suit?

    The lawyers on both sides and the judge and the American Civil Code disagree with you :)

    Did Apple Doctor Evidence in Samsung Patent Suit?

    Go read the full document and Nilay Patel's breakdown of it -- oversimplification after reading 5 lines of the complaint gives the wrong impression.

    Did Apple Doctor Evidence in Samsung Patent Suit?

    That qualification leaves you with few places to go :) Most companies behave like greedy children:) As far as the courts, there are very specific rules that they have to follow with this kind of stuff and they end up being moved to or filed with districts that are knowledgable in this type of...
