I suspect your question isn't serious, but the way it works is the pyramid of technology distribution. Older technology that's still working gets passed down to others who are less savvy, who then become customers of your brand. Free stuff handout marketing that doesn't cost your company anything? Yeah, that's not a bad thing.

He did this imminent threat routine just last September/October with Yelp, putting warnings all over his videos about the threat of them being taken down.

Probably gets a lot of traffic.

>A new, international survey of 100 CIOs

These surveys only tell you the mood of other CIOs. Which if you are a sales guy is useful. Or if you are a CIO and you want to make the "safe" choice, you at least know what that is. "Everyone is doing it" goes a long way with the boss.

>Roughly 31 percent of the CIOs will be using Azure for IaaS, versus roughly 30 percent using AWS. Today, about 21 percent are using AWS and 12 percent are using Azure.

This says to me that if you aren't an early mover, you are more likely to answer "Microsoft" to any questions about vendors.

The only hotel safe I thought was safe for valuables was one with a key, where they handed me the key and said, "If you lose it, it's a 90$ fee because we have to call a locksmith." But that's only been one hotel out of hundreds. Otherwise I think of hotel safes as a first place a thief would look for stuff worth stealing.

Safari works like a charm. Version? It's an appliance, does it have a version?

Um, if you wanted an HP ipac, why didn't you buy an HP ipac? You bought a music player and expected to read random files on it? Forget the hardware issues with letting people drag and drop music willie-nillie all over a music player and expect it to work perfectly, but expecting it to let you display random documents doesn't make any sense. We are on our second ipac. They cost $700 a piece (at least, might have been euros...) and they crash all of the time, but you can move any old files you want back and forth to it. You can even edit them.

People who think they should be able to drag and drop their music completely miss the point that player's desktop software is adding meta data that is making your life as a mobile music listener much more pleasant. Knowing that the files will always be just so on the player makes the hardware designerss lives much much easier so that they can concentrate on more important interface issues. Basic things like pre-adjusted volume, equalizer settings, favorite lists, bookmarking, album song order... forget album covers and silly stuff like that, I can't imagine what using a player that was forced to treat the music as a random pile would be like. Ick.
