Ehhh... Yes, I'll give credit where credit is due, but I feel like it's too little, too late (with regards to the exciting factor; of course, that's not meant to imply that Microsoft is going anywhere.)

For $275, does it protect your hair style and non-waterproof pants as well? (since they clearly don't intend the use of an umbrella with this...)

Man, I would love a Spotify app that would generate a playlist in this fashion...

Agreed. No wonder my faith in humanity keeps dropping.

This was from the original A&B ban, referencing the blog: "...unwarranted attacks on its schools catering service which culminated in national press headlines which have led catering staff to fear for their jobs". Yes, a nine year-old has launched "unwarranted attacks" on a corporation. Who in their right mind could…

This would be great for me as a composer, programming shortcuts to change note durations, accidentals, etc... If only it was wireless...

And just like that, the cat meme genre was guaranteed relevancy for yet another decade.

"And no matter how many times you tell these creatures that they just wasted thousands of greenbacks on features they will never need and probably won't even use,"

[www.tornadohistoryproject.com] is a great site if you're interested in tornadoes near you.

The lengths are correct; unfortunately, the creators of this map chose to create a straight line connecting the touchdown and lifting points of the tornadoes, rather than representing their true paths. There are a few well-known (and thus easy to pick out) tornadoes on this map whose paths were certainly not straight…

That is a myth and a wrong one at that. Tornadoes have been known to cross mountains, descend canyons and destroy skyscrapers. As a counterexample to your specific myth, I suggest looking at the Shinnston tornado of 1944.

480 by 320 on 3.5 inches? Yikes... That being said, I wouldn't call this a tough phone... My sister can throw her Casio GZ'One into a wall, has dropped it into a toilet (an unused toilet, thank goodness) and has had it stepped on by multiple horses. I don't see this phone surviving those disasters (except maybe the…

I don't think it's that unreasonable. It said the camera was sold at a house a mile away from Scott's mother's residence. It was probably a friend's camera.

"then that cash ran ouT" #corrections

That's fine if you believe that you can't own intellectual property, but art (creative writing, visual art, music, dance, etc...) is something akin to, but distinctly different than intellectual property. An artist is very often putting the very essence of their person into their work and when someone takes that…

You're clearly not someone who makes a living creating things; if you were, you would understand how it feels (as well as the practical implications) when someone takes something you've put your mind and heart into and uses it as their own.

Favorite show.

I used to be squeamish watching videos like that too; then, I watched the first three seasons of "The Office." :P
