...Apptel? Inpple?

This move puts Netflix in even more direct competition with traditional broadcasting/media companies than ever before--as if NBC-Comcast wasn't already looking to throttle YouTube and Netflix traffic to hell and back. Real net neutrality seems like it aligns with Netflix's business model--they may become a true defender of how many people here think the internet "should" work on top of their apparent desire to be a true independent alternative to old media.

Is there a negative here that I'm not seeing? Does one of the big media companies secretly own Netflix?

I thought it meant that Mozilla wouldn't have more releases, period. I'm sure I'm not the only one who read it that way--a much better headline would have been "Mozilla to have faster release schedule following Firefox 4" or somesuch.

You're right, a better subject would have been "Bad article, too obvious." :)

The article says that poorly deployed firewalls and IPS systems create a single point of failure.

I forgive them, because the word "pentalobular" is hilarious to say.

I also don't own an iPhone, so it's all academic to me anyway. :D

Um, that's why the headline and summary say "REVENUE" and not "PROFIT." There is a difference. Unless you are a troll who made an ignorant post on purpose, you should know what words mean before you accuse the whole article of being a fraud.

I disagree--Windows 7 does a lot of good catching up to Mac OS and Linux in terms of keyboard shortcuts (Aero Snap alone is seriously worth $250 or more and is better than 3rd-party solutions,) multi-monitor management, and coherence of the different places that applications live. I can't wait till my workplace upgrades our machines to Win7 so I don't have to manually drag and resize windows anymore.

Mac OS-style upgrades that are less expensive and focus on features over infrastructure (at least from a user perspective) would be pretty neat. And it would ensure that we don't have to wait 5 years between releases (or 7 years between viable releases) again.

How are open source programmers supposed to implement a Linux port of a proprietary, third-party streaming platform based on Silverlight? Reverse engineering? More importantly, how do they convince Netflix to use it?
