HP always made the best far back, like the HP-35, 45, 41cx and then PCs of high quality.
Now HP apparently seeks to blend in with the masses of the cheapest laptop designs on the Asian continent.
Who is going to match Apple for top-of-the-line laptops, which a professional can use for 5-6 years before replacement?
"there isn't enough money in the world to pay for a launch system", but wait there is enough money for a $1 trillion dollar program that has NOT achieved its stated desired results as verified by the GAO!
Head Start = No Start
NASA holding onto an out-moded Space Shuttle design, crimped the US's space efforts for decades.
Welcome to the Space X Dragon and someone finally with GUTS; Elon Musk.
The upstarts with lower cost and equal or better OSs will take the customer's business. No surprise. Bundled deals to keep the price up will also fail.
Microsoft has no choice but to lower prices, significantly. That is the real world of competitive business.
But Adobe promised me if I upgraded on a special price from CS5 to CC, I'ld be able to use CC anytime and only be required to check in once-in-awhile and have lots of time after my subscription ran out to pay up or get all my files converted and back, etc. etc.
Are you telling me Adobe lies?
Microsoft To Sell Cheaper Devices. Sounds like HTC Samsung tactics.
$1500 is the filing fee to submit prior art documents against a patent application filing.
Lots of these are filed every year.
First to invent versus First to file does NOT invalidate the existance of prior art.
All it takes is copies of prior inventors work & videos that show someone else showed the idea first & filed with the patent office and then any later patent application/s are deemed unpatentable.
Been that way forever.
Hint: In 2 years I have yet to see a Surface "in the wild" nor has ANYONE asked about a Surface.
No matter how good, how sensitive, if your car breaks fast to avoid hitting a car in front, the drunk behind you in a Suburban can still cream your Prius.
Stated the way it is in the lead in, that opinion may be the only logical conclusion.
MS needs hardware and needs an exclusive.
Surface tablets may be the ultimate crossover if it clicks.
The writer doesn't understand what he is talking about.
We haven't had a "large dump" on California since 1969! 2+ years of a lack of sunspots brought the US a very hard winter.
The Eastern Pacific bulge of hot water on the equator looks like it might spawn another "Pineapple Express".
Some geophysists say the sediment record shows that a mega-dump like occurred in 1862 in CA & OR could dump 11 feet of water on CA in about a month.
Will that be "climate change", given that it happens every 40 or 160 years on known cycles?
I suspect it settled because you can't demand unreasonable royalties for SEPs & Moto figured that was where it was going.
