I cant tell if you are agreeing with me, or being sarcastic.

Your last sentence I think just uncovered your age...

Ok then use the Nexus 7 as practice to see what owning an OFFICIAL Android product is all about. Give it about a month or less and you will start seeing Cyanogen and AOKP roms for that tablet. BOTH of those are the community roms to follow. As for updates to either of those, you have two options. Use RomManager or…

Actually all Giz ever needs to do is mention Apple and Google in the same article and the fan base will take care of the rest in the comments.

Stop applying logic thought about Google to a Giz writers comment.

Absolutely none of what you said about either product is true in any sense of the word... Just saying!

I dont disagree with any of that short of the fact that them being prior art is very relevant. If Samsung can prove that the icons or any other aspect of Apple's IP/Patent are prior art, than their case against Samsung is moot! If you read the transcripts of the trial today Apples expert witness had this very argument…

So wait, being an informed consumer makes me a fan(something) of said product? This is silly talk, you know that right? I write for AndroidSpin from time to time and I will constantly argue the fandroid posts put up there as well. I correct the writers all the time on obvious bias and misinformation. I may just come…

I am NOT a fandoid! I have stated several times that I am a humble (ok, not so humble) tech whore. I own way more kit, then I could ever validly use. At present I own 3 Android phones, all of which are the Nexus models, an iPhone 4s, an iPod touch, 4 Apple Tvs (2x1stgen, 2x2ndgen), a Google Tv, ect, ect, ect... this…

NO THE ISSUE IS PRIOR ART!!!

Oh god you again! Well this should be easy...

This is absofuckinglutely retarded.

Seriously, did you start viewing technology with the advent of the iPhone, because all of these icons have been used before in the past and are ALL pretty damn standard fare.

No but the head-shot and the binder and the Rolodex have LONG been standard images for icons and tactile buttons in the technology world.

I have been dying to try zbrush on a setup like this. Im just waiting on some of the newer Win8 tablets to take the plunge.

I dont expect the pressure sensitivity to be near as good as a Bamboo, but drawing on the screen more that makes up for that. Even if this is good primarily for sketches and rough drafts thats fine by me.

I think when you take into account the price difference between it and a Wacom Cintiq, or the vast improvement over a standard capacitive stylus, the question becomes moot.

Are you purposefully ignoring my meaning?

Linux itself would not vanish, thats pretty obvious. But a precedence for not contributing back could severely fragment the ecosystem. I meant to imply that it would kill Linux as you and I know it.

Because allowing it would set a precedence for breaking the most basic rules of the linux community, and would likely destroy it.
