From the article: "Siraj and Loeb did not find that we made a mistake, and so they should have accepted the numbers we got," Desch told Live Science in an email. "Instead, they attempted their own back-of-the-envelope calculation and made a great number of approximations and estimates, and came up with different numbers that they say aren't favorable."

Comment Re:Delivery (Score 1) 52

I've started buying computer components from Bestbuy rather than Amazon because I don't trust Amazon to not deliver counterfeit goods.

The user interface was so filled with ads and promotions that I sold my device within a month. I thought consoles were all about gaming without the distractions of a PC, but that had changed between the generations.
