Supplemented by the fact the article specifically mentions that fact. :-)

There is the key that people gloss over. "No extra cost". You forget the (literally) billions of dollar it takes to put the infrastructure in place. It's illogical to think that money came from no where, and doesn't' have a value that should be properly compensated. While $20 may be on the high side, it gets really old to hear the "no extra cost" argument. Companies invest in infrastructure to make profit, news at 11. AT&T made $3.5 billion last year. Apple made $26 billion. If you are going to harp on someone for charging to much for too little, pick a different target.

"Second of all, the original iPhone 2G, which I have, is definitely not supported by iOS5, or even iOS4 for that matter. What are they smoking?"

The graph represents 3 years after release, which was up until June 2010. IOS 4 came out 8 Days before the end of that three year cycle. So, yes, they should have lopped off a bit of the last bar on the original iPhone, but generally speaking the graph is accurate.

Because Azure is a software platform as well. You can by your own POD's from HP and then run the Azure stack on top of it.

Twitter does't kill people, tweets kill people.

There are markets other than America. Orkut is huge in Brazil and India, over 60 million users and one of the 100 most trafficked sites in the world.

Seriously? It was just a link farm? Wow.

Again, as I mentioned - what if the person doesn't have shame?

The vaccination argument holds true to a point. We are discussing a psychological change tho,not a physical one. There is considerably less harm with this app, then say...an app with instructions on making Colloidal water. Colloidal water can physically turn you blue. Forever. Will that app be banned?
