It's the games, STUPID: Sony makes 'about $18' on each PlayStation 4

Jdoe1

And they could have gotten away with making another $200+ on each unit.

Notebook makers turn to Android in face of Windows woes

Re: Good news

Elementary, my dear Watson

Re: Must be Republicans running Minnesota!

Windows 8 to grab iPad market share wrested back from Android

Jdoe1
Thumb Down

Re: windows 7 ?

@pcsupport

A tablet doesn't need the huge driver store for one thing. There's no need for any waste of precious solid state memory. Sorry I'm sticking with Android unless Windows 8 addresses the wasted space used by the OS that has nothing to do portable computing.

Why is the iPhone so successful? 'Cause people love 'em

Jdoe1
FAIL

Doesn't make sense to rate satisfaction with cheap phones compared to an expensive one.

These results don't mean anything when companies that make many models at different prices and then get their results averaged together. Then compare them to one company that makes one model at one price.

Who needs cooks?

Jdoe1
Thumb Down

At&T's idea of creating jobs is putting their name on ex T-mobile's employees paychecks. Of course what will end up happening is redundant jobs cease to exist.

T-Mobile JavaScript comment stripper breaks websites

Jdoe1

I don't mind.

Stripped data is data I don't have to pay for.

Better ATM skimming through thermal imaging

I guess I'll be...

punching all the keys randomly after removing my card from now on. It wouldn't hurt to wipe the keys with an alcohol pad afterward. Evaporating alcohol would cool the keys enough to throw the algorithms for a loop. Wouldn't hurt to use something other than fingers for pressing keys also.

Speaking of patents.

My Droid EXPLODED mid phone call, says Texan

Doesn't look like the battery was at fault.

I looks more like a tolerance problem between the screen and the case and the heat put out by a big fat boy.
