According to Linode's staff as of 4:46PM PST -- they don't see any indication that credit card/billing information was compromised. So they are sticking with that position as of today.

Really? They think your comment is "insightful" ? It's a 10 year old OS -- keep using it if you really want to, but don't complain/whine/bitch when new things don't work for you. Believe it or not Windows XP might not have certain underlying technologies that are built into Vista/Windows 7 that iCloud needs. Keep XP if you want to, but stupid bitching about things not working on it.

If you're still on Windows XP (and you're a home user) than you are an idiot. Update and move on for the love of god. The majority of Windows XP users will be corporate sheep anyway -- and they don't need to be using iTunes/iCloud anyway.

uh... riiiiight. We should give Steve Jobs a free pass for being a huge egotistical douche for the past decade just because the man is sick now? Uh, no. He's still a douche, a sick douche, but still a huge douche.

For the love of god, can we just stop calling him the "Gmail creator" at this point? It's pathetic. Good to see it's his only claim to fame. Wait, you mean he created an online email system? Shocking! Gmail isn't exactly rocket science guys ...don't get too impressed when he talks about anything else.

It's just a web app. did you guys even bother to read? I realize you wouldn't have anything to bitch about if you acknowledged that it's a web app, but still. Try reading.
