No it won't, nearest satellite is almost a thousand miles away!

Geostationary satellite is 22,000 miles high. A nuclear explosion the magnitude of human-built devices will do a lot less harm to the upper atmosphere than the sun does continuously. Geostationary orbit is 165,000 miles in circumference. The closest satellites from Galaxy-15 are Americom-10 and Americom-11 and are both two degrees of longitude away from Galaxy-15 (that would be approximately between 900 and 1000 miles away!

So, the radiation field will cause no damage to other satellites and the upper atmosphere.

I am not aware of any treaties stopping the USA from nuking its own satellites.

It would still be completely impractical to use nuclear weapons in this case, just sending a rocket would be enough. Very expensive though.

So, others are even worse, it make Apple great?

When was it a comparison with other devices? I honestly don't know if it's good or not to have full details on every single piece of hardware in a smartphone. I would certainly like to have those details, personally, because I like knowing what I buy. I understand that the basic consumer doesn't want to know anything technical, and that he only wants the device to work. I understand that there is a middle ground to be found, and I don't really care, as long as I can read technical developer's documentation.

"Look at the others, they're doing it even worse", isn't, and never will be a valid argument, This is not a comparison to other devices. It's a statement about Apple. You did not refute this statement.

Isn't this an option that can be deactivated ?

Demonstration on a laptop says: "Look, it doesn't use much power", regardless of what it really uses.

6+ ? Last motherboard I bought had fourteen.

My physics lessons a few years back scream at me that the XXXXXXX "2channels" is not possible. Light does not reflect that precisely through the fiber.

Multiple wavelength works great though.

I've heard people say it exactly like that, I don't care if it's true or false, but some fanboys are quick to draw the "iPhone outsells every other phone", hopefully, not every single one of you does that.

Steve Jobs himself, in the iPad keynote said something of the like "Apple is the first seller of mobile platforms in the world", of course, he was talking about revenue in both phones and laptops, so that actually might be true, given the high price of the Apple hardware, but the point is, this topic exists out there. Some say that without doubt, iPhone is powerful in the market, the GGP is however very reserved on that issue.

If it were a story where the iPhone market share was a positive argument, GGP would have said "Of course, the iPhone has the market power, it is the first phone ever in sales volumes in the world, therefore [insert conclusion here]

Why not? I mean, saying "OK, Adobe has a flash application, it is like any other application, accessing the API, if the API changes, Adobe changes their app. Or they can compile it without needing the API, then, when hardware changes, Adobe must make the modifications. Where's the problem?

And if apps were a feature to sell more hardware, why not allowing third party? And market it as a feature? It would sell even more hardware!

You mean, if I want to develop for Playstation, I have to buy Sony hardware in addition to my Playstation?

And how is this different exactly?

Tricks like that will be very hard to pull. I am not an expert on that field, but it seems a little too far-fetched :)

And a person will not see a fourth primary colour, but it would extend the spectrum of an existing one (red, green or blue), which may be very useful for some. I would prefer a totally new photoreceptor for myself.

I have to admit, this would be cool, because it couldn't be localized precisely on the retina when scientists first try it, so you would have glow-in-the-dark eyes. Science is way cool!

Actually, treating coulourblindness could be achievable, adding completely new receptors would be not be possible... Genetic engineering is able to take genetic material from a source and give it to a target, but is not actually able (yet) to completely invent a new organ or type of cell, or even a new photoreceptor molecule... You need to completely control the whole chain of events that leads to this new structure, and this is not achievable with today's science.

They aren't well known to the general public, but a lot of professional system's administrator knows them.
