"When they see what mine does that their iPad doesn't, they'll never buy Apple again..."? How do you want to impress people? Opening a shell? Read the kernel version? Apple is hot about things that matter for customers! Geeks don't get that.Posted on Aug 26, 03:01
What "past experience" says "open" eventually wins? Is this the same experience that foretold the iPhone would be a failure?Posted on Aug 26, 03:00
hmm so you compare 2 Operating Systems - one is available on multiple devices - the other one is bound to one device.They are no real competitors in my opinion- because they have completely different target groups.

It's easy to make predictions about unreleased products. Steve Balmer made all kinds of predictions about the HP notebook--just before they scrapped it.But until Acer has a tablet that the world can play with, they should avoid bragging too much.

I have used Acer products - they're OK, but not great. The monitor is good only because it is cheap. Same for the laptop. There is a market for them, to be sure. But to assume that this low-cost copycat manufacturer can produce great things is a stretch.Posted on Aug 26, 01:37

It doesn't matter. When they see what mine does that their iPad doesn't, they'll never buy Apple again...Posted on Aug 24, 05:27
Mr. Wang is, sadly, assuming the people who buy things like the iPad have even heard the term "open OS" - much less have any idea what that means.
