The problem is: it's always close. It's why I choose not to participate in the charade. I vote third party even if I really, really, dislike the idea of one of the assholes winning.

I usually respond to that by saying human behavior is rarely logical and the patterns of people to gradually push things to see how far they can go is well established.

Cyanogenmod is doing this with 10.2.

Sort of the opposite with me. If I know the lyrics, I tend to "sing along" in my head, the words form images, and I get distracted. If the words are unintelligible (foreign language) or it's just instrumental, I don't have that problem.

I find music with lyrics to be distracting sometimes (it depends on the lyrics sometimes), but electronic or classical tends to boosts my productivity.

But you really think the pedo is going to do something to your kid(s) because of a book? Really? Books make them that way?

Yeah. You can identify as a desktop, but that means it wouldn't affect the tablet metric at all (while it might skew the desktop browser metric). Some other browser like Dolphin let you identify as an iPad or iPhone, which IMO is far more useful since many sites assume wrongly that android supports flash. iPads and iPhones tend to get served pure html5 video. This is a global setting in Dolphin, not a per-page thing. Now that would affect the tablet market measurements, but comparatively few people use that browser (or one like it) and even fewer use that option.

Well. I'm on the latest stable release. It has something very similar to "mission control" where you get your virtual desktops, windows "exposé"-style, and your dock all on one screen. It also has something similar to the notifications center on the bottom. Personally I like it. One hot corner and I get an overview of everything, which is what "mission control" was designed to do. It's search function (on the same screen) is also very similar in form to the iPad's universal search. It's function is similar as well.

My steam library has over fifty games. What's your point?

There is no "groove". It's magnetic, like the normal iPad covers and like the surface.

Check this keyboard/cover out for iPad that's nearly identical to the Surface keyboard. Bonus is that it predates the surface.

While you and me might do that, how many users know what a user agent is, much less delve into third party browser settings to change it? There can't be enough people to mess up the numbers.

Tfa: "Users can alter or replace any part of the software or hardware they want". Valve is not Microsoft. It's privately owned either and Gabe is almost universally seen as a cool guy -- hardly the type to pull off a dick move as you imply he would.
