Re: All of this outrage

Yawn. You need to work harder, that was a deeply unoriginal and infantile attempt to antagonize. Cliche, trope, cliche. If you have a point, rest assured us adults can debate it, don't be such a lazy tw@t.

Re: You know what's tragic.

Imbecile.

1. This is a bootnotes article, always irreverent humour, often not involving tech. If you don't like the mix of humour and news on the Reg, why come here. You must of realised by now, this what they do.

2. Holding up the Daily Mail as a comparison, makes YOU look like a cock.

Re: Running a Windows Server?

@hoola, I agree. The wish fulfillment of a few posters that have installed Linux on a Laptop is laughable.

I was a contractor at one point working back-fill, the clients were mostly large enterprises. Every single one of them (30+) ran a windows server infrastructure, AD, Exchange, MS SQL, .net applications, new and old web app running on IIS. Most used Linux and Apache for websites, and not much else.

I honestly have no interest in the Windows/Linux debate, I use both. But the claims that MS server is going down the pan and everyone is living in a Open Source Server Utopia is straight up deluded, tedious fanboy ravings from people who clearly haven't worked in the enterprise space.

1. Download and Install updates is already the default, 99% of the public won't have changed this. They won't notice a difference, or care.

2. Having a unpatched machine will cause just as many issues as the occasional bad patch will cause.

3. Anyone reading this forum will no doubt find a way to bypass this feature easily.

4. The shrieking hysterics of this non issue is baffling. Really? This is a reason for not upgrading? This?

Give it fucking rest already.

Re: yawn

".as opposed to predictable sheep like yourself, who peddle their unfounded prejudices without a moment's hesitation for rational thought. Well done, anonymous bottom feeder."

The fact that you refuse admit any failing on Apple's part, ever, just makes you a blinkered shill. You probably have shares.

Don't worry though, I'm sure the deluded clowns that buy these products will lap them up.

@ The Crow From Below

Conversely, I would like to see a great deal more passive aggressive snide aimed at Apple, and also at the pitiful clowns that purchase any old crap that they produce.

The Reg has never been balanced and fair, and has always been about mocking hubris. No idea what fairy land you thought you had been visiting.

Re: Apple said it intended to appeal and called for patent reform

Oh no, my spelling corrected by a pedant.

Blow me.

Re: People will still buy them

"If it's going to have the same functionality as a Pebble". It will, as in literally. One of those hard round objects you find on a beach.

Re: Enterprise? Not yet...

Can you believe it, the great David Gale (?) warned Microsoft in writing 4 years and they chose to ignore this prophet.

1. You can sync SMS so the messages are included in your exchange mailbox, thus giving you a convenient SMS archive. People hate this turned on however.

2. Available as a 3rd party application only as yet.

3. Of course you can search your Exchange Mailbox, not sure how you missed this.

I really hope you don't test things for a living!

Re: Obviously, it's time...

I've used the mozilla/google homepage for a decade, Mozilla get a cut from that. I certainly don't begrudge it.

Just bored of change for changes sake. Seeing the last 10 pages I visited when opening a new tab is not at all useful, i have to squint to even make out what most of them are.

To this day i still type in well used url's, letting autocomplete or history take care of typos. No doubt Google or some other bunch (of c**ts) will find a reason to remove ALL unseemly text from the browsers.

Re: "such a significant development change"?

"Otherwise maybe they should also have say polygamy, scat, bondage, and bestiality preferences?"

I'd deffo play that version. And make it part of the school curriculum just to annoy sanctimonious Mary Whitehouse types like you.

You and Nintendo can suck my cock. We'll motion capture it and release a game.

Re: HP is the reason the Public Sector fear Privatisation

Despite the evidence you continue your anti PS tirade. Your 'extensive expirience'? Consultant?

Don't make me laugh, as you seemingly no nothing about working in a Gov IT deparment, i suspect you are nothing more than a Salesman.

Begging for contracts, desperate to flog the latest shiny tech. And then fucking everything up like the majority of projects outsourced to private companies.
