This just in, our life protecting, underpaid, and bored out of their mind service personal have a North American copy of Star Wars in Afghanistan. How dare they! What is next? They might watch an American football game without the express permission from the NFL!

The harm is potential in nature. Businesses must assess risk. This event increases risk in the future, which decreases the benefit to all. Furthermore, there is a real cost to the business. Internal resources have been diverted to these aholes. If anyone thinks that something like this does not...

It seems obvious that Verizon is intentionally dragging its feet. Too bad consumers have no real way to penalize them for this bad behavior. Unfortunately, if any of use switches to another carrier we are just trading one devil for another.

Government should only intervene when the free market is operating inefficiently. This question is all about whether or not you want or need Big Brother in yet another seemingly innocent part of your life. I will take a big slice of no thanks. The technology market is about the most...

The profit per unit is not the same, but margins are still good for the mini. The iPad 4 does not have twice the memory. They could not use iPad 3 parts because the A5X uses too much power and would increase the weight and thickness of the mini. velocityg4I wouldn't be surprised if the actual...

Best article ever. 15 years ago when my bother-in-law recommended I spend over $100 on a PSU, I laughed. As I grew wiser and I realized how fundamentally important a PSU is, I started to buy better and better PSU's. I now refuse to buy name brand computers because I know the PSU will be low end...
