Comment Re:My Hero! (Score 1) 183

Okay... I acknowledge that the guy did something incredible... about 25 years ago. In terms of tech, what's he done since then? (Well, Wikipedia says "Wozniak founded a new venture called CL 9, which developed and brought the first universal TV remote control to market in 1987.[3]). Yeah... not too much. Woz seems like a nice enough guy, but I can't help see him as anything more than a geeky, loveable, dufus. I must be missing the love-for-wozniak gene in my geek DNA makeup or something, so... for the geeks who do (really) like Woz... can I ask why?

Comment OK, but not great, without Steve Jobs (Score 1) 399

Apple will cease to be great if it loses Steve Jobs. His maniacal need to control and review everything put the best ideas from excellent minds into outstanding products. I'm far from a Mac fanboy (only just "switched" about three years ago) but I am much less often disappointed by what Apple builds and sells compared to others.

Google's Chrome Declining In Popularity 489

holy_calamity writes "After launching in a blaze of publicity that even warmed Slashdot, Google's browser grabbed a 3% share of the market, but has been slipping ever since, and now accounts for 1.5%. Google has also stopped promoting the browser on its search page. Assuming they wanted it to grab a significant share of the browser market, have they dropped the ball, or is this part of the plan?" On Slashdot, Chrome is still the #4 browser (after FF, IE, and Safari) but it was ahead of Safari for a few days, hitting almost 10% of our traffic.
