Agreed. I'm not sure what else they would do with this cash that wouldn't have set the acquisition rumor mill on fire a while ago..... they could buy Sprint or something though, and have $75B leftover.

Their current enterprise value, which is more accurate than revenue for a potential sale price, is $265B apparently.

Competition, over time, will virtually always erode a market leader unless that leader also institutes anti-competitive tactics to prevent the competition from entering the market (which, you could argue, Apple is doing- but I don't want to go into that here). As an example, look at the size of the chunk Amazon has…

The part that gets me is "how we compute."

Ghandi is insane. Always has been. I'm always careful of him when he's my neighbor- I either strike first, or have my army ready to defend and then put on a strong counter-assault. I don't stop until he's either gone or I have most of his cities.

"They did so by harnessing waste heat"

Yo, check out this ipad I just picked up!

Here's a question: if you get this 2048x1536 display on the ipad, what kind of GPU are they going to use? Because that will be a TON of pixels. 4x as many, to be exact. That will be murder on the current GPU when it comes to rendering 3D scenes, like with Unreal Engine 3, and even with a new, more powerful GPU- what…

The AN-94 is a bitch to mass produce, and is apparently expensive as hell as a result. Mostly because it has some stupidly advanced features that nothing else around does.

Too bad the AN-94 is basically the most complex and expensive gun to build in history. It has some cool features, just sounds like a bitch to maintain and mass produce.

Well you're no fun, Mr. Logical!

Incidentally, that's how Santorum has most damaged the whole GOP's odds at this election- by differentiating himself on extreme social policies, he has forced Romney be vocal about the same things, which runs off the moderates in huge numbers.

Man, driving a display with iphone 4 DPI levels, but for a 10" screen, will require sooooo much graphics horsepower. I hope they have something punchy for GPU duties, and they'd better have a serious, serious battery lined up too.

"In terms of absolute numbers of lives saved, it certainly isn’t the highest," Mr. Ditlow said. "But in terms of emotional tragedy, backover deaths are some of the worst imaginable. When you have a parent that kills a child in an incident that’s utterly avoidable, they don’t ever forget it."

I'm sure that using it for tethering won't show up as a spike at all in their system when you're usually downloading books, right? What could possibly go wrong here!

Is this a surprise? To be honest they'd be pigeonholing themselves into a very limited market if it could only do dumb file dropping from the browser interface (or mobile apps). Box and Dropbox, arguably the biggest names in web based file sharing right now (aside from Amazon, who is not as consumer friendly), each…

Yep, me too. I got a blue 32 GB, and I love the thing to death. This and Zune Pass are the best way to listen to music on the go, IMO. Because as much as I love the interface, WP7 hardware just isn't good enough to replace my Android.

Nope, they still suck. Try an AMD APU if you want good graphics on a budget- otherwise you're still wasting your time.

Do you use it to open bottles? Seems like that might hurt a bit.

Sorry, but here's my complaint: this could have been mentioned a while ago, when the CE was still available to buy, but it wasn't. And I don't mean details! I mean they could have said "It will include a new squad member" or something. Don't even need to specify the race.
