Ballmer's emotional farewell to Redmond: I LOVE THIS COMPANY

What a complete dickhead..

Windows 8.1 start button appears as Microsoft's Blue wave breaks

except henry ford didn't say that

he said 'if i'd have asked my customers what they wanted, they would have said a faster horse.'

ie. customers can't imagine something new until you show it to them. that's why the general public were lost without something familiar - the start button.

Google Chromebooks now in over 6,600 stores

i've got one

the £229 samsung is great for basic web, email and watching stuff. yes, the screen is average but as a cheapo laptop it's great. you are, of course, tied into googles stuff but it's better than an ipad.

Adobe kills Creative Suite – all future features online only

Apple's next OS X said to be targeted at 'power users'

bring back 'save as'

osx should be made for desktops and not incorporate tablet-like functions such as the dreadful idea of removing 'save as' from textedit..

Peak Apple: First 'profit slip' in a decade - and, boy, it's gonna be BIG

i was a mactard

but now i've got a chromebook and i'm ditching the iphone for a nexus 4.

apple will slip in the next 2-3 years but will still be healthy. cook just doesn't have jobs' manic passion.

Virgin Media keeps mum as punters fume at crippled web access

ahh virgin media

ok, the wireless is better now after the firmware update but it's still the worst wireless router ever....and the engineer (who had to come round to sort disconnection issues - again) told me that there is a new superdud coming out with dual antennas!

but yes, they are still shite.

Review: The ultimate Chromebook challenge

i've got the samsung

and it's great - come on - it is what it is..great for surfing whilst sat in front of the telly. chrome os needs some tweaks but you get 100Gb of google space and its cheaper than a macbook air or ipad - and i'm a long time mac user but their prices are a joke.

Chrome OS code suggests Chromebook Pixel could be real

Re: LOVE THIS

agreed - had mine 4 days and loving it - and i'm a mac user. apple simply need a better value, simpler laptop and not a bloody tablet.

once skype runs on this chromebook i'll be sorted.

it is what it is folks.

Apple releases iOS 6.1, adds LTE carriers, tweaks security

still an annoying issue..

someone sends you an email asking for your cv which you have in dropbox. you click 'reply', type some words then want to attach a non-photo file.......how?

Virgin Media staves off cable punter seepage

been with them 3 months

the tivo stuff is quite good but in 3 months we've had broadband down to 1mb for 3 days (twice), a rented film stopped halfway through and reset, box reset due to slow menus and numerous network messages on screen.....oh and the telephone call charges ARE A COMPLETE RIPOFF!

other than than it's pretty good but i will look at bt at the end of my contract.

Re: Disappointing service

we were having the slow jerky menus issue. so i turned the box off and off at the back, waited the standard minute and it was much quicker when i re-started it.....

Lawyers of Mordor retreat from The Hobbit

rough pub anyway

New Mac OS X: Mountain Lion roars at unauthorised apps

Simply awful

What the hell is this tosh?

Gatekeeper - like windows defender then.

Messages - like instant messenger then.

New flash RAM tech promises 99% energy drop

question..

doesn't RAM hardly use any energy anyway?

so a 99% drop of not much isn't that much of a saving - just asking?

Samsung outs MacBook Pro lookalike laptop

because...

steve wants you to buy all of your content, including hd, from itunes.

it's got nothing to do with blu-ray licencing.....it's also why apple are phasing out flash.

it's all part of apple's walled garden approach, which is why i've had enough of them..

ok, i'll bite...

a brushed metal exterior and black keyboard does not automatically make it into a macbook......

Apple rumor mill predicts 'all new Mac'

girl shmurl

he just has an opinion about crapple - that they are twats. just because you've all fallen for the shiny iphone does not make apple untouchable.

why can't we just stick to bashing apple like the good old days...any defence of apple should be banned on these forums or else i'll through my toast at the screen..

you are correct

worse thing they ever did was go to intel and allow windows on a mac, notice how their marketshare of pc's is flat, no matter what their figures suggest.

i've had 5 macs and would not touch another. the price and over-hype is now ridiculous....

Ridley Scott confirmed for Blade Runner pre/sequel

yeah it looks fantastic (the cleaned up re-master) but i still think it needs 3-4 minutes chopping from the last 15 minutes.

sorry.
