I wonder if /. editors realize that they could post a follow-up "nothing to see here" clarification for 99% of all news. In fact, I think they should start doing so. THIS JUST IN!!!ohwaitnevermind.

I think that this implies that Wave has moved INTO beta, as in being feature complete, but full o bugs. previously it was a barely working alpha that lacked major functionality.

As a matter of fact, it is enough for anyone who's calculations are Turning complete!

At least in the UK you're getting a better return for your tax pounds. You spend a smaller percentage of your GDP on military and you get nationalized healthcare.

Why the flamebait? What they are calling the "apple tax" is really the value add tax, which must be built into the price of all products sold. Why should products be priced identically across all countries anyway? Shouldn't companies maximize their profits by pricing their wares competitively with the local market?

Why? Do you need one? I can have one carved for you.

A big win for gaming on macs. Valve has a cannon of some of the best FPSs the PC has to offer. I've been exclusively buying and playing my titles through Steam for about 2 years now (the sales are spectacular). Hopefully with native Steam support, more developers will take time and expense to make their new offerings dual-platform.

I detect a big Googly brother undertone. Anyone remember the accidentally released Yahoo searches that told the story of people's personal lives through their search queries?

In that case, I suggest that the /. editors pick a few of the science and technology events from here and repackage them as if they just happened. I've not heard of most of these, therefore they are new to me.

This just in! The USSR's Venera 7 is the first spacecraft to land successfully on Venus and transmit data back to Earth!

Why is this story from 11 months ago being reported by Slashdot as if it just happened? Could the reason be anything other than sloppy content gate keeping?

Are we sure about that? Think of all the OSX86ers compared to the preciously shallow pool of Macbooks.

Hmm, so affluent households that own an expensive, designer computer are likely to own multiple computers? Shocked I tell you!

All Hail Acrobat, King of the Bloatware!

I hope this isn't the final nail in Sprint's coffin. I happen to be very attached to my $30/month everything unlimited SERO plan.
