I do not doubt that Apple's tablet/reading device will be huge... if, that is, they do what I think they're going to do.

Apple are aiming to revolutionise the old print media industry. Just like they did the phone industry. Just like they did the music industry.

Apple's device will be a reader, but it'll be so much more powerful than the surprisingly successful Kindle. It'll be able to display full colour newspapers and magazines (and yeah, comic books), but also offer a sort of hybrid with the web. So if you subscribe to the NYT on your Apple reader, you'll be able to read the full paper, and also see exclusive video/audio too.

The device will be suitable for textbooks and regular books too, but it is the periodical industry of newspapers, magazines and comic books that Apple will effectively 'save', with this device. You've probably seen all the stories over the last few years about newspaper firms going bust or struggling for a way to stay relevant. Now think back to the late 90s and it was exactly the same with the record companies. Apple have spotted a very 20th century industry that's ripe for revolution. And unlike Amazon, they'll get it right.

Of course, I may be wrong...

That guy's face at the end is so smug it's difficult to resist shouting at the TV and vomiting at the same time.

We're beginning to think that tech firms are releasing bad videos on purpose because they often turn out to be more viral. What other reason could explain Microsoft's most recent campaigns, and now this fresh horror.

Twidroid is good but leave it running at your peril. My Magic's battery life was down to about 8 hours....

I found it in Jonathan Ives's bin the other day. I reckon it's legit.

I have heard that he always uses Comic Sans Italic on internal memos...

This is the most convincing rumor I've seen so far... no way is this a render or a photoshop job. http://twitpic.com/4njvi

Agreed: I have an eeePC 1000H and had OS X running on it for a month or so. It worked... but it wasn't a particularly satisfying experience. I switched to the new version of Ubuntu, which runs much better.

Multiple apps didn't fit the screen properly, many aspects of the core graphics didn't work properly, the wifi situation was annoying, the computer just ran too slow. I'm happy sticking to Leopard on my iMac and using something lighter on my netbook.

"Who profits most from the release of malware on any platform? " Those are dangerous words... could you be referring to the fact that many of the security scare stories seem to emanate from Symantec HQ?

Sure, it's just a bit rubbish!

Yeah, the Gimp is obviously #1 stupidest name for a program. OnSoftware remembered it ;-)

...er, I quite like the black. The Nintendo/Xbox themes look really outdated. In fact, this one would be even better if they dropped the blocks all together.

It's also kinda reminiscent of that black-looking console... you know, the awesome Sony one?
