  1. Comment - Finally, we learn what the Windows ad campaign was about

    Well said. Like any advertising, the way you get people to buy your product is to make it appear as if it is better than all the alternatives. For some, that means Apple products fit their need. Others, it's a Windows box.

    Heck people; it's your money. "Sticks and stones..." right?

  2. Comment - Who needs hackers? Palin e-mail hack reveals obvious vulnerability

    It's one thing to disagree with her politics (and quite legitimate); it's another to drop the "illegal" bomb without some pretty hard evidence to back it up. Have you seen the emails? Did you go out to wikileaks.org and look at the screenshots?

    Please, someone point out to me where she violated any laws by using Yahoo.

    A state law that requires official email communication to be through the state secured email system is all well and good, but it doesn't apply to personal email communication. In fact, most businesses, governments and the like don't want personal email on their network. Show me an official email that was on the Yahoo account and I may jump on the "illegal" bandwagon.

    Much ado about nothing. Whoopie-do, her email was hacked. Even the guy that did it said he didn't find anything incriminating - perhaps meaning that maybe she DIDN'T conduct official state business using it?! I think I'll run for public office (let's say governor), win, and then use the password "password" on a public account.

    Then I'll tack "gov." onto the front of my email address which of course obviously means that I am conducting official governor business using that address.

    Kind of like a soccer mom with an address of something like "soccermom18732" would obviously be using her address for official soccer business, right?

    Give me a break.
