> How long have you been on Hacker News? Your account is only 20 days old; can you pass adequate judgment on the matter?
So, if a person's userid is 20 days old, then does it directly mean that the person has been using the site for only 20 days?
what kind of logic is this?
Nope, I thought HN was for news related to startups and things that are interesting to hackers. If more and more of news submissions here become related to Apple, then doesn't this make it Apple News?
>>Nintendo has proven that you don't need bleeding edge graphics to sell consoles
That's true, but you do need a deep and enjoyable gaming experience to be successful - something which I don't think the appstore model of pricing around 99cents is going to bring out soon. So, the DS and PSP are here to stay.
>>Realistically, if you have maybe 1500 of the most popular apps, you have enough to pretty well serve the market.
Yes, that's the point. It's just that iPad now has so many good quality apps compared to Android. It _may_ change in future, but for the time being iPad wins. (The total number of apps never matters, most of them are crap anyway)
If you actually think about this for more than 5 seconds, you'd realise that they're releasing an OS that's both a successor to windows 7 and a tablet OS. It's like Apple merging iOS and OSX[1] and releasing it as OSX 10.8!
[1] yes, both have same core, but they have different set of functionalities. And they are gonna merge it somewhere down the road.
>>My parents aren't Apple fans. They're not nerds. They spend a lot of time frustrated with technology. They're nuts about their iPad because it works really well. That's it. Adding a USB port isn't going to make them like it better. It's going to make it more complex, which is going to degrade their experience in using it.
This is interesting. I'm curious, how do they manage the music/photos/videos in their ipad? Doesn't syncing by cord with the computer a messy thing? Or do you do it for them? How do they use it?
