Watchdog says yes to BT's EE takeover deal. Shrugs. No 'significant' harm in it

Simples Let us see the Deals

Let's hope we get 'REAL competition' - like the Energy Market? with BT and those millions of POTs lines that have paid for themselves many times over. There are only 2 players in Comms Virgin and BT

is'nt Plus Net BT in another guise? - Every Company in phones. moby and energy market should have no more than TWO Tariffs High and Low so we can see what's competitiive. That however, would be too easy and helpful. All this bull**** about 'how much do you use' is a smokescreen.

MAC TO THE FUTURE: 30 years of hindsight and smart-arsery

Mac PC and Others Future Forward?

I seem to remember, when sober, that the Mac although expensive worked well as a desktop machine and proliferated many a magazine and advert. Around this time the IBM / (Alan Sugar's) Amstrad et al were tortoises and relatively expensive ones at that. The highly illuminating docu-film' triumph of the nerds' captured the early cut and thrust of operating systems, coding and the rush to get something workable into the market. It documented lost and found opportunities and some of the key players. Today the Apple dynasty still demands many shekels for its products - so no change there?

So where to now? - as far as hardware goes its seems Tablets Androids and Clones will be 'on the march' and may format ALL in their way. BTW wonder what the 800,000,000 XP users will be doing mid April 2014 when support is cut? I still use XP - Time to download the final drivers, etc?
