    Apple, Opera Slammed Over Browser Patch Regimes

    I've been using Opera since 5 or 6 and have had very few issues with it. I've never been infected by those little buggers you might get visiting those questionable sites. And as a few have pointed out, it's minimal market share (that I like) keeps it positioned as a safe browser. Yes there...

    Three More Indicted in LCD Price-Fixing Conspiracy

    How is this any different than the oil companies only producing just enough oil to keep the prices at a certain level? Gas prices dropped to somewhere about $1.75 a gallon and they jumped up crying to slow down production for prices to go back up. Where's the lawsuit agains the oil companies?

    Google Desktop Vulnerable To Attack

    Garbage. How many hackers have that much time on there hands to sit and do this? To gain what in how much time? Speed is the key in hacking and social engineering. You want as many PCs as fast as possible. Not just one to do god knows what kind of minimal damage.
