    How many are getting an Apple watch?

    Yes preorders are great, but I just don't see this product having staying power. Early adopters, fanboys, and uber rich are mopping it up right now...but will Joe Public be buying it months from now? I don't think so. I predict sales will taper off hard and fast. This product just isn't...

    iPhone6 will kill high end Android phones in the US

    They are appealing, if executed correctly, and I don't buy for a second that Samsung has ever implemented a software feature correctly.

    iPhone6 will kill high end Android phones in the US

    There are literally no major consumer facing features that Android has that consumers are wanting on iOS. It has always been the larger screens. We're already seeing evidence of iPhone6's being sold in record numbers. High-end Android manufacturers are indeed shitting their pants right now...

    iPhone6 will kill high end Android phones in the US

    Again, you are NOT the average consumer. It was ALWAYS the bigger screens that kept people tied to high-end Android.

    iPhone6 will kill high end Android phones in the US

    I'm talking about the average consumer, not the high-tech guy. The average consumer does NOT want to root his phone and customize it six ways from Sunday. With iOS8 I'm arguing that they are providing the framework to satisfy the large majority of consumer customization needs (e.g. different...

    iPhone6 will kill high end Android phones in the US

    I'm predicting it will. The major reason why Android rose to prominence so fast in the high-end was the larger screens. It wasn't the software, apps, or any other reason IMHO. It was those big beautiful 4.5-6" screens. With that advantage completely thwarted I see no reason why any average...

    iOS 8

    Wow iOS8 has seriously murdered performance on my 5S. Laggy everywhere, even after a full reformat of the phone. Web browsing in particular is noticeably laggier, open new links in background delays longer than it needs to and scrolling can be chunky through heavy websites. My phone feels...

    New Start menu leaks in Windows build 9788

    I can't tell you guys much, but that is most certainly NOT the StartMenu you will see in Threshold. Windows team has completely redesigned every aspect of the Desktop in Metro 2.0 and that includes the StartMenu. I've seen it and it looks phenomenal, the Desktop is a true first class citizen...

    Surface Pro 3 thread - Info, thoughts, opinions

    I still hold that the primary think holding back the Surface line is software. Microsoft desperately needs to get out from under Windows 8. I know Windows 9 (aka Threshold) is around the corner and will address a lot of concerns, but it can't come soon enough. They need to figure out a more...

    The Official Xbox One Thread

    I can't tell you guys much, but Halo 5 will utilize the X1 to the fullest. Think Kinect, think Azure cloud servers, etc. This game will be the showcase for the X1, as Halo has always been for Xbox.

    The Official Xbox One Thread

    Overpowered. Underpowered. Doesn't matter. The main issue is price. Microsoft will not match PS4 sales until they drop the price to $399. They simply are not adding enough perceived value at the moment to justify a $100 price increase for gamers. This may come over time once the app...

    CNN Money: Microsoft's next big headache: The Google Chromebook

    Chromebooks are an interesting breed, but invariably anyone I recommend them to will always complain about lack of some app that is a deal-breaker (e.g. itunes, office ,etc.). I'd rather spend an extra $100-200 and get a real notebook that can do all the things a Chromebook can do better and...

    AMD @ GDC: Partnership with MS next-generation graphics.

    Mantle has no future because no graphics vendors outside of AMD will ever get onboard. DirectX12 is the future and if they can realize performance gains that approach what Mantle has shown on a broad range of graphics cards then everyone profits, not just AMD users.

    I can't see this as ever being anything more than a hobby market. Smartphones are too costly and cost savings are only realized through integration of components at the SOC level.

    article says "xbox one has no hope, will lose this generation to ps4"

    I have to be honest, I've watched all the Eurogamer.net videos and comparisons and in real-time it's incredibly difficult to see much of a difference between these two systems. Both look pretty much about even to my eyes. I don't think this matters as much as people think it does.

    The Official Xbox One Thread

    Just about every aspect of the X1 is "beta" right now. One need only look at the support forums to get an idea of just how many issues there are. It's hard for me to recommend this to anyone who is expecting to replace all their media devices. I'm not really sure how much confidence I have in...

    Gov. Chris Christie in hot water over Bridge Scandal

    I said from the start Christie would never recover from this scandal. He is a sinking ship at this point, the rats will start fleeing soon enough and then the whole deck of cards will just topple over. He has no chance against Hilary at this point, even if he miraculously kept his post as...

    Finding closure with a bully high school teacher

    I can't imagine having angst over something like this 27 years later. While the teacher was out of line promoting religious beliefs in a public school, this shouldn't affect you at this point in your life.

    Gov. Chris Christie in hot water over Bridge Scandal

    Christie is completely done as a political figure in America. He won't survive this scandal and will probably resign very soon as this continues to heat up. Why anyone would want to vote for someone who used his powers in a mob-like fashion is beyond me. I don't want this guy anywhere near...

    The Official PS4 Thread

    PS4 is selling for a whopping $100 cheaper. IMHO that is really the main reason why it's selling so strongly in comparison. Lest we forget, when the XBOX360 was cheaper than the PS3 it outsold it as well initially. The key is what happens 1-2 years down the road as the platforms mature and...

    Any word on what is louder (PS4 or XBone)?

    Ps4 by a mile. Anyone who tells you the ps4 is silent is a liar. Especially after a gaming session it is quite noticeably loud and hot. The x1 is a silent whirring noise no matter what you do. I've yet to even hear it spin up beyond the normal levels.

    Is Microsoft playing a dangeous game of chicken with the internet? (XP)

    Windows 9 will come in at least three separate SKUs. One for mobile devices like tablets and phones compatible on ARM. Metro only. One for consumers. Metro + desktop hybrid. One for enterprise. Desktop focused, will likely be compatible with Metro apps but as proper windowed apps.

    2014, year of the "Pro" tablets?

    Android is nowhere near as smooth as iOS. It's gotten better, but it's still far laggier and buggier than any mobile operating system I've ever used. Also, I'm strictly talking about the Google-only experience, not whatever shitware Samsung/HTC have decided to lop onto the OS.

    2014, year of the "Pro" tablets?

    If Apple makes a Surface-like iPad that will be the fastest turn around I've ever seen since they were literally just mocking it in their last unveiling. I can't really see the need or point of a "Pro" iPad when they have the Air. Anything they put out in the $500-1000 space will eat into the...

    Desktop, Notebook and Tablet Sales Up 25.4 Percent Over 2012

    Agreed. This is an incredibly misinforming chart. US only. Commercial only. We all know desktop/PC sales are largely dominated by business and direct OEM sales. The commercial market for PC's is fading as they get replaced with tablets, phones, and cheap netbooks. This will only...

    2014, year of the "Pro" tablets?

    There really isn't any point in releasing a pro ipad until they make the core OS actually usable for large screens. Currently there is no way to split screen apps or make effective use of the extra real estate. Microsoft is the only company with a usable productivity tablet OS.

    Has Microsoft's living room strategy panned out?

    I'm assuming you don't have an X1. You sort of hit the nail on the head about the integration without even realizing it. Even with your fancy receiver you still need to find the remote to change that input to get to your Roku, AppleTV, etc. Since the X1 supports all of the major online...

    Has Microsoft's living room strategy panned out?

    The majority of X1 criticism comes from those who don't actually own one. As someone who is a HT enthusiast, I was skeptical that their all-in-one integration would work. But after hooking it all up and giving it an honest try I have to say they are very close to something truly amazing...

    Did you run your cable box thru your Xbox One?

    I have to say my xbox one is truly an amazing device. Being able to seamlessly switch between gaming, tv, apps, and music is something no other device can do as well as the X1. Using kinect vs hunting for a remote makes the experience truly revolutionary. Does it work 100% of the time? Nope...
