New iPad revealed. Big price cut is main feature

Non bonded screen

I've heard that it has a non bonded screen and if so will be just like the original Air's touch screen, ie bouncy and feeling a bit cheap.

Apple chief Cook is highest paid CEO in America

I based it on a 5 day week, not a 7 day one.

Sorry, its worse than that ... $365,000!

Sounds a lot ...

When you say 95 mil but in it only works out at around £365,000 ... a day.

Ten gaming headsets

Re: why so much ?

Love my fatality headset, bought a spare just in case my current set ever fails. Not keen on the removable mike tho, keep losing the bloody thing.

Re: late?

I've always assumed the article delay was usually caused by having to think up a catchy sub-title. Not sure what happened here.

Big Train

This review reminds me of the Big Train no wanking in the office sketches. What a job!

Apple CEO Tim Cook has a massive package

Nice package ...

So working on current salary and assuming his shares stay constant for 10 years and finally assuming he works 7 days a week, hes effectively on $105k a day. Nice

Four jailed for million-pound abuse images ring

Just a usenet provider ?

So was this a dedicated server for the purpose of distributing dodgy child images or just a usenet provider like easynews for example that doesnt filter their content that passes through them?

I imagine any usenet provider is going to have some illegal images on their servers?

More info please!

Dabs.com courier goes titsup

Shame

Have to say Amtrack were great for me. Order from dabs previous evening, normally on my door by 9am. The driver even figured out that quite often I'd be in the office in the garden and would come round if I didnt answer.

Game sharer gets £16K fine

Nice little earner ...

7000 possibly paying 6k for the game and 10k to lawyers! 5% success rate should generate a nice income. Almost worth their while to leak a game into the p2p networks.

Lying about age, now a sex offence ?

"Unfortunately some of the creators of accounts who were deleted, of an older age group, have been creating new accounts with a younger age (which means that government legislation classifies them as a sex offender by lying about their age on the Internet"

Some dating sites I've seen must have a fair amount of sex offenders on them then!
