I have a wife, kid , family and friends and things to do and places to go to and goals to accomplish. I would never spend 520 days of my life stuck in a make-believe space ship. rofl.

That's a total waste of time. 520 days gone for an experiment.

Android is not just software, it's a platform. If the hardware is low-quality, that's still an Android issue.

@tadfisher, looks like there are way more crappy Android phones out there than high quality ones.

Android is a "platform" brand.

No it's a perfectly valid comparison. it's like saying cars made in Detroit fail more often than cars made by BMW. Android is widely considered as a low-quality OS running on low-quality hardware. Android's strength (ubiquity) is also its w

Why is he not a "virtuoso"? Bcause you said so? And Why cant i have it both ways? And that staement was meant for Bill Gates, but if you were insulted then I guess you're guilty.

Steve is not technically limited. Just because he had limited formal education and training dosn't mean he's technically limited. That's just how insecure people describe him so they can feel better about themselves.

it's even scarier to think what the millions of artists, entrepreneurs, etc. who Steve inspired will accomplish in the future. Right now there's someone working on the next billion dollar start-up in his garage that's going to blow us all a

Bill Gates is like Joe Satriani. Satch is one of the most technically gifted guitarist of all time. Hes a master at all the complicated alternate picking and shredding. But his music absolutely sucks. Steve Jobs is Eddie Van Halen. A tortur

You can always buy an Android phone if you're so concerned about your "freedom". oh wait Android's no better. /snicker option 1: if you buy an iPhone you get f'ed by Apple. option 2: if you buy an Android phone you get f'ed by Google, your

I agree. HP's hardware business is dragging down its stock price. this is one of the reasons why IBM sold off its PC division to Lenovo. Services and software usually provide a return on invested capital of 30 percent or more, compared to 1

The iPad will dominate the tablet market like the iPod did to the mp3 player market. "Cheap plentiful shit will eventually overtake high quality products" You're right about this one.

You're full of it. iOS 5 runs fine on the 3GS.

I was doing the same thing. I had a Nexus One and an iPad 2. My Nexus One crashed 12 times while I happily used my iPad 2 without problems.

by chugger 15y ago
the iPhone 3GS is better than Nexus one because it (can) runs iOS 5. your Nexus One is stuck running an old OS.

I was explaining why Android is not designed for embedded devices. Sure ICS can run on phones with one core as long as their fast enough but theere will always be lag and delays due to the garbage collector constantly running in the backgro

the 3G is 4 yr old. the Nexus one is only 1.5+ yr old. here are two issues: 1) Android is suffering from feature creep / bloat 2) Unresolved design issues are biting them in the ass

Android is not a real-time OS and is not designed for embedded devices. the kernel is not real time and java has severe latency problems caused by asynchronous garbage collection. A workaround is to allow the garbage collector to run on a s

iOS 5 runs smoothly on a 3GS, a phone older than the Nexus One.

Google has a long history of thievery and/or patent infringement starting with Adwords (originally from ideaLab/Bill Gross).

Its a tried and true strategy if there wasnt a better strategy. Amazon doesnt need to create their own hardware. They are doing just fine selling Ebooks via their iPad and android apps. Low overhead, more profit. Selling their own hardware
