If the 31 dollars were profits on the 30 dollars you spent, then you certainly didn't become poorer. Money isn't wealth.

Always eager to do Apple's PR work, aren't you?
Usually, there will be an early comment with a much needed correction to the summary. Slashdot summaries are more unreliable than Fox News.
Besides, most people don't know how to use Word properly. It's become better since 2007, but before that, it actually encouraged bad usage. At least OpenOffice made people use styles simply by having them available. There's nothing particularly good about Word even today, it's just common.
Absolutely and totally wrong. The town was chosen for access to cheap hydroelectric power in the early 20th century, and a deep valley would be a terrible defensive location.
You're an idiot.
Sales are down, for everything except the iPhone. Not cynic, just stupid.
A 6 digit UID, and you don't know the difference between RAM and storage. Then again, you're an Apple user.
Bullshit. Last year, it was awarded to the EU, the year before that to some African women you never heard about, and then a Chinese dissident you also never heard about (funny how it's usually the Western elite and non-Western dissidents). One exception doesn't prove shit.
Right. And removing mass just make the quakes less massive, amirite?
Ah. Idiot know-it-alls. Always eager to ignore readily available empirical evidence.
Only stupid people make emotional decisions regarding tools, there are far better reasons than "because you want to".
Nonsense. When buying a simple mechanical tool like a hammer, it's much better to try holding it, swinging it and see what it feels like than going through a list of specifications. Same with smartphones, in that there's a real difference in how you physically interact with them. If it gets the job done with a minimal amount of stress, you'll be happy with it. The need for special apps as front-ends to every little web page (which is what most smartphone apps are) is there mainly because phones in general are deficient in this area.
Linux is probably more widespread than Windows. Unless your wireless router is from Apple, it probably runs Linux. Same for tablets, ebook readers, and phones, of course. Windows only owns the desktop, which is here to stay, but gets less and less relevant each year.
