Verizon's Droid Is the Real Deal

If the Droid has a battery that you can change without having to buy a new phone and will play Flash, I will be buying the Droid. The iPhone is a fantastic product but there are so many aspects of Apple that are annoying.

Five Points to Eliminate Confusion About the U.S. Macroeconomy

This article represents some of the worst economic analysis I have ever read. If we want to fix the economy we should stop wasting more money on health care by trying to include people when we cannot afford to do so. It is a lie for President Obama to say that providing free healthcare to the uninsured will bring down the cost of health care in total. Our country is broke. President Obama has our country so far in debt our grandchildren will never achieve the standard of living they would otherwise be entitled to.

Why Isn't Microsoft's Strategy Working Anymore?

Predicting 60% Decline for Manhattan Property; TARP for Trump?

New York City real estate values are distorted because of rent control. Many people prefer to rent because it is cheaper than a mortgage for a home. As home prices come down the monthly mortgage cost becomes closer to rents, won't we see a dramatic shift from renting to owning? It seems to me this pressure limits the downward risk of real estate, at least in Manhattan. Any thoughts on this?

Jerry Yang's Blunder - Worst Business Decision Ever?

The deal with Google would have been fantastic for Yahoo. I don't think Yang should be held responsible for the horrible decision made by the lawyers at the Justice Dept.

Yahoo President Defends Ad Pact with Google

All the deal with Google does is give Yahoo more options to make money. It's a good thing for Yahoo as well as Google.

McCain's Economics

Obama is going to raise taxes on those making more than $250K per year. Then he will give that money tho those making less than $250K per year. That sounds like the economic plan of Robinhood, not one of an American President.

Google: More Downside Up Ahead

I plan on buying one of the Android phones because of its open operating system. Eventually the amount of software available will exceed what is available for any competitor including Apple.

Microsoft Copping to $10 Million Seinfeld Mistake?

Bill Gates looked like such an "old man" in the shoe ad. I couldn't figure out what was the point of the ad. I didn't learn anything new about Microsoft. It seems like another Microsoft waste of money. Microsoft should take its ad budget and use it to pay dividends to shareholders.
