soo... I'm guessing you just read the headline and skipped the: "*Update - 3/9/12: We became aware of an error in calculation for our GLBenchmark Egypt Offscreen results here and have since updated the chart above. As you can see, the iPad 2 boasts a significant performance advantage in this test versus the Tegra 3-powered Transformer Prime."
looks more like an etch a sketch to me
The first iPod was 5GB and it had "less space than a Nomad"...

what are you talking about?
the bias against iPads is strong with this one.
can you point on this doll where the iPad touched you?
Back in the real world; the place many here I'm sure must forget exists or something, Microsoft Claims that Office 2010 is selling better than any other MS Office suite before
FTFY
From the link:
The company has also declared Office 2010 the fastest-selling version of Office ever, though it didn't offer specific numbers to back that claim up.
it takes 30 seconds for your MBP to wake up!? How much RAM do you have in that thing / how slow is your HD / what?
very much this
Right... because what really matters is the total number of crashes reported, not the crashes per application launch.
or you could us accurate numbers:
Chevron 2011 profit = $27.07B
Apple 2011 profit = $32.98B

It's actually not that bad on OS X; I have heard it is pretty terrible on Windows.
The only reason they are doing alright financially is because they have gigantic margins, facilitated by having low manufacturing costs. Note that they were barely alive when Tim Cook moved the manufacturing overseas.
I would be interested to see an example where a company kept their manufacturing in the US and wasn't undercut by a competitor moving their manufacturing elsewhere. And if that company isn't a tech company why there isn't germane difference between the industries.
They don't "feel entitled", each company knows that if they don't take all the advantages China's manufacturing offers, someone else will and undercut them.
If you remember back around '97 the number one complaint against Apple was that they cost too much, and they were among the last hardware companies to abandon USA manufacturing. The prices have stayed about the same or dropped instead of growing with inflation.
I don't really agonize over a $4 latte because I've maybe bought 4 in my life... and I guess when I did I agonized a little.
and man, if 32 and 37 are their options, the software had better be very compelling. Although there is a TON of room for improvement in TV software. And I guess the apple TV plus your 50" plasma is always an option for bigger screen size.
Of course I should also admit that I've never owned a TV and do not foresee one in my future.
There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.
