@patrick.oriley: Should totally have been named that. Or Camroflage.

@Rohan Kapoor: So true. Thieves never get past those. Why doesn't everyone think of that? Idiots!

@ilfn143: So true. A Mac PC isn't worth stealing so you never have to worry about securing your data with the lack of tools to do so.

@ShortBus: Good stuff! Nice that Dell provides this at the BIOS level.

@miguelguillenmartinez: Windows 7 Enterprise and Ultimate are the only two that employ Bitlocker, and yes, good call.

@Masai Andrews: For most cell users the best option will be to stick with their current carrier and extend the contract so as not to incur the most cost. So most consumers will likely have a choice of 2-3 phones. A smaller number would have the option of switching carriers, even smaller number of first-time users. …

@Masai Andrews: Sure, but we could use the US too. Listed are 3 phones for AT&T. And 2 phones for T-Mobile. Not an overwhelming choice at this point. But overall I feel a "limited choice" is far better than no choice at all. And that's the excellent strategy MS is going for currently.

@Masai Andrews: Consumers won't really be overwhelmed because not all these phones are available with every carrier at once. For example, in Canada there will only be 2 WP7 devices available at launch, and only on one carrier. Not exactly overwhelming.

Microsoft (notably poor at marketing) should trademark, "There's a better app for that" in the spirit of how they go about promoting their Marketplace... essentially instead of filling up with a bunch of cr*ap apps for a buck a piece they encourage developers to produce quality apps and not to really cheap out on the…

I'd say, give me a few weeks to decide.

It's almost a DOUBLE LIGHT SABER!

@Nihilexistentialist: Often a good leader passes his ideals down throughout his organization. So will a bad one: [gizmodo.com]

@enlight10ment: Maybe they used it like... "FARC off!"

@Worf: That's the key here, I think. Our (Canadian) price should be like, $4.99/month.

@chicken.triscuits: Definitely... a corporation is legally an entity. But a strong CEO will inject his DNA into the company all over. And when you get to hear snippets of what that looks like it helps to make sense of some of the philosophies that go into the product and service design of that corporation.

@Nihilexistentialist: For sure, but it's nice to round out your view of a company with the CEO's more honest thoughts about the industry, his focus, his customers, etc. It's something we didn't hear as much before the age of Facebook, Twitter, and even email (yeah, I'm dating myself).

@Korrupt: Actually I think it's kinda good to hear more from CEOs of companies, such as seeing more attitude of Mr. Jobs... helps us better define what we like and don't like about a company.

@Shawn Barney: Hear, hear! Yeah, and there are so many great services still not yet offered here, like the Zune subscription, heck, the Marketplace... let me have my $1/month savings!

I think there's a supreme lack of creativity with captcha creators in general. Why not do things like show a small photo and ask (multiple choice) say, what color the largest building is in the photo, or which shape is the green shape, and so on?

@atrus123: Sweet! Totally driving all the HOV lanes now!
