• I dunno, it's not as though wikipedia didn't get the update before Clearwire and their ilk finally noticed and went to all Michael all the time. In reply to: "News sites swamped following Michael Jackson's death"

• It seems hypocritical for Mr. Buffett to complain about Steve Jobs' medical status and not provide at least Berkshire Hathaway with his own medical diary.
  Well, perhaps he does.
  Even so, I'm inclined to back Jobs. His medical issues obviously are a bit less critical to Apple The new iPhone sold a million? Sure, Apple fell right apart as Steve took the Reality Distortion Field on sick call In reply to: "Week in review: Steve Jobs' secret transplant"

• I must wonder...
  When there has been no security issue with any Linux on any platform yet, how is it that we need be concerned on phones?
