Bing Trying to Get Exclusive on Fox? Smart

Dumb if M$ does this. As WSJ is subscription based, most people won't care if they can not search this rag. Plus, what will advertisers think?

PS: Didn't work for MySpace.

Bing Nears 10% of Search: Google Unaffected

"The newspapers, would need to work together, "

Isn't that anti-trust?

Will Wall Street Buy Tim Armstrong's Plans for AOL?

Is AOL still in business?

Not Everyone Likes Windows 7

Mac underpowered? They now run basically the same hardware as most modern PC's.

Also, why be a Windows masochist? Just bite the bullet and get a Mac. I am tired of people complaining about Windows but too wimpy to get a Mac.

Bing's Paid Clicks Up 8% - Has Microsoft Cracked the Search Nut?

Bing's Cash Back is nice. I search for stuff on Google and then check Bing to see if they have a cash back deal for the item.

PS3 Causes Heartache for Sony

The Xbox costs the same as the PS3 once you add the WiFi, rechargable controller, monitor cable and cost for online play. Sony, unfortunately I guess, puts it all up front.

Ballmer's Not-So-Idle Threat to Yahoo: Do You Feel Lucky?

Maybe Gran Torino is a better choice.

The question is who is playing Mr. Kowalski, Bartz or Ballmer!

Google Increases Home Page Text by 33%. Are They Scared of Microsoft?

Where does Microsoft come up with these names? Bing? Zune? Then there is Amaga and Natal?

Microsoft May Be Able to Halt Apple's Music Monopoly

With iTunes selling songs without DRM, I really don't see people going to a subscription model. If you want a 'subscription' just use Pandora or similar service. Works great on the iPhone or computer and it is free (so why pay Microsoft).

Next topic please.

Netbooks: Not if, But What Will Replace PCs

The Facebook application on the iPhone works great. No need for a netbook or laptop (and the iPhone is a computer with much more power than the Lunar Landing module to boot!)
