I would buy this car if it were available for a reasonable price

In one of James Gosling's article's bullets about the Oracle-Google lawsuit, we find the following nugget (emphasis is mine):

Google did have a financial model that benefited themselves (that they weren't about to share). They were partly planning on revenue from advertising, but mostly they wanted to disrupt Apple's trajectory, and Apple's expected entry into advertising. If mobile devices take over as the computing platform for consumers, then Google's advertising channel, and the heart of its revenue, gets gutted. It doesn't take much of a crystal ball to see where Apple is going, and it's not a pretty picture for Google or anyone else.

Anybody who argue that Google didn't create Android to compete with Apple's iPhone, is deluding themselves.

I can't help but think that these charges are to pressure him into doing what they want, namely removal of documents that they don't want exposed.

Update: The charges have been dropped. My guess that he either capitulated to what they wanted or they realized that it's going to stir a lot of trouble and media attention to his case.

Interesting technology.

I'm all for harnessing any renewable energy source that we can find. Tidal waves have been working on our planet since there was a moon orbiting and water on Earth. If we can use it, then we should.

Although, how continuous this energy is not discussed in the article.

Everybody should read this one. It will enlighten you to your cellphone company's sales pitches.

So, Apple is taking the most profits in two markets.

Those who concentrate on pure market share are too short sighted.

Mario Brothers-style turtles! Cool.

Still no legally downloadable option. Must either buy the CDs or download illegally.

These old school business people (they're not artists anymore), just don't get it.

412 KM/h chopper!

That's awesome.

Doing things the easy way instead of the correct way has ways to come back and bite you in the ass.
