I'm really starting to loose my faith in most IT related journalism, they seem to have their own agenda as to what news get's over hyped

My opinion on the matter.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Hilarious!
So Office was the only thing preventing iPad (hardware) to kill Windows (software)? What the hell happened to those visionaries in Apple.
We seriously need a proper tech-blog/website, all these older ones are getting nuts.
Oh and one more comedy to the story, Microsoft OneNote has been featuring as the Editor's choice App since last 10 days on a Mac App Store. End of an era for Microsoft? (I really love headlines that ends with a question mark)

Apple is dropping Windows 7 support in Boot Camp -- and Mac-based Windows users won't like the reasons why. Apple shows how to really drop support for a product (boom, splat)

The idea that Apple would ditch support of Win7 to get Office on the iPad seems...wrong. They are pushing their own office productivity suite. For Free. Apple just don't seem to be a company who would bend like that given
a) Office on the Mac is awful. Why would Apple support such a competitive product?
b) I would imagine a measurable percentage of Mac hardware sold goes to those looking for hardware that will run Windows 7
High res displays? Just because Win7 doesn't support them doesn't seem like a showstopper.
Seems to me it could simply be a "We don't want to write Win7 drivers for Bootcamp" issue for the Mac Pro. Apple have done a fairly haphazard job on the Bootcamp / Win7 drivers as it is (Trackpad issues, anyone?) so maybe they are just picking the target that will remain viable for the longest period.

Ding ding ding ding. Yup, I bet that's it, no conspiracy required.

A small-scale and unscientifcally sound experiment suggests that the drunker you get, the funnier you feel. This feeling is not shared by others. I guess I should stop drinking while working on this news

That's one more than when I'm sober.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Very relevant to some people I know!

I have seen this before.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Hi Kent, How about switching over to entheogens ? The lows would be so much higher, and versa-vice.

I was wondering why the bylines were often funny in the morning, but tailed off after lunch

It took a scientific study to reach this conclusion! lol
I conclude that the researchers were not drunk!
|

I guess they think they're more scientific when they're drunk as well.

New features include a BBM Shop that sells stickers and sponsored posts and invitations for BBM Channels. BlackBerry says it won't intrude on the core messaging experience. Stickers. Yes, that will save Blackberry
{sob}

You promised you wouldn't write sad stories about Blackberry!
(and thar's about as sad a story as it gets)

On Tuesday, we dusted off the source code for early versions of MS-DOS and Word for Windows. With the help of the Computer History Museum, we are making this code available to the public for the first time. Oh great, now people are going to fork it, and we'll end up with all those clones around

It hadn't popped up in my feed yet. Dang, one day I'll beat the people with fast fingers.

I'm horrifyingly excited to download them when they're actually available.

Me too - imagine a full OS in only 118 files, and even some of them contain documentation!
I'm wondering if it compiles on VS 2013?

That sums up my exact reaction.
I actually reckon it'll be neat and well written. Let's place our bets...
