Actually, if you use a tablet, you just need to slide your finger to the left from the right side of the screen. It's made so that you have to use either bottom right or top right corner of a screen with a mouse so that you don't accidentally open it.

Get with the times and stop bitching about change. No one likes change.

Do you remember a long time ago when people used to complain about a mouse-driven user interface? How did that turn out? How long did it take you to adapt to Windows 95's start menu after being used to use the Program Manager? When did you stop changing your Windows 7 taskbar settings to make it look more like in Windows XP?

Just... get used to it. You'll have to adapt to it eventually, so you might as well enjoy the process.

They're gonna cross it with Post Mortem/Still Life world, right?

Or November 2nd, which, incidentally, is my birthday.

That's not the point. The point is, if Apple gets this stuff patented, they could sue other companies for patent infringement because their way (ie. the way everyone else is doing induction charging right) is too similar to Apple's designs.

But I liked Clippy...

There's no streaming on the little Wii, but I get your point.

Oh wow, it already has a Wikipedia article

It's funny how I don't get pissed off that there's a part of Manhattan that's filled with Chinese people.

They don't have 3G towers in North Korea... I think. If they do, they're probably being controlled by the government, anyway, so the access is still restricted.

Oh, those poor Nintendo nerds...

Alright, let's say it's change, not progress. Why do you think that it's Microsoft that's forcing you to adapt to a new interface? Seeing as how popular iPads are nowadays, do you think it's a dumb move for Microsoft to create an operating system with a revised interface that works great on both desktops/laptops and tablets?

Why do you hate progress?

He's saying that cars are meant to be driven, not flown, like desktops and laptops are meant to not have touchscreens.
