• Commented on Robert Cringely: don't bail out the auto industry, outsource it to Jobs
  If Jobs ran a car company, you'd pay $150,000 for the equivalent of an Escort that randomly burst into flames, but looked so sweet you'd be excoriated by the other members of the kool kidz klub if you didn't have...
• Commented on Stephen Fry hates the Sony Vaio
  Windows, Mac, Linux, Unix - you name it, they all suck. After 15 years working with computers in a professional capacity, that's my conclusion. Every OS I've ever used has brought to a frothing, incoherent rage at one time or...
