Religious groups can go and fuck themselves, I've had enough of superstitious groups trying to change the world to their liking, really it's too much. if some idiot needs to censor what he sees, install dans guardian or similar. geeze, leave the net alone

This move reminds me of when Apple stopped supporting PPC devices. The article says WinPh8 won't support single-core devices. I wonder why? That would be equivalent to them releasing Windows 7 and saying, "Won't support Pentium 4 or other single-cores."

That is because Wph8 need more than one core because it's slow and needs more cores to move at a decent pace hahah

Splashtop Drops Windows 8 Metro Testbed Onto Android 36

Posted by samzenpus on Monday June 11, 2012 @08:53AM from the check-it-out dept.

MojoKid writes "Want to try out the Windows 8 Metro interface on your Android tablet? Splashtop apparently has a solution. The company previously released a Windows 8 Metro testbed for the iPad back in April, and now it has one for Android devices, which is available in the Google Play Store. You'll need a PC with the Windows 8 Release Preview installed, but once you have that taken care of, you'll be able to poke around Microsoft's new touch interface on any Android tablet."

Coisiche writes: Virgin Media are not spying on their customers, oh no. But they do know if any are infected with malware and inform them.

And i did like how the headline shows on the BBC site — Virgin alerts infected customers. No double entendre their then.
