Windows 8 Tablets Are Already Displacing iPads With More To Come [View article]
Bashing Microsoft is a public service.
We have GNU/Linux software which Microsoft has used every dirty trick in the book to suppress.
And the online Chromebook reviews are mostly glowingly positive, and there are like a hundred times more online Chromebook reviews than surface reviews.
And how come I can't load Vista on a spare partition to fix the original distribution that is messed up because of their lousy design? A linux distribution can always be fixed if there are no hardware problems. With Microsoft it is reboot and pray. Who needs it?

I have Vista and Linux on a dual boot machine. There are no hardware problems, but Apparently Microsoft's only solution is to reinstall the operating system.
I also have a Chromebook, which is designed much better than anything by Microsoft. A reinstall of a Chromebook would not even be a problem since everything important is easily backed up.
With MS it is a major headache. And further why are diagnostics so poor that reinstall is needed?
Using Microsoft is just plain aggravating and frustrating and expensive.

I am in pretty much agreement with your whole essay except for shorting the markets and deflation.
We can have blow out highs much higher than here with lousy fundamentals. And expecting deflation is a very iffy proposition. These guys want house prices higher. This is what they know, this is all they know. So I don't see how we can have deflation with rising housing prices.

My Vista computer will not boot. Due to Microsoft's incredibly bad software and arrogance there is no way to fix it apparently without a reinstall. I am now relying on a broker program running on Linux on the vista machine. A reinstall would scribble all over the disks and make it necessary to rejigger Linux also.
So I am now not using Microsoft at all. A few years ago this would not have been possible without losing access to many third party apps that I was using. Now I don't miss MS one bit. My CHromebook and Linux box give me all I need and then some.
And life is better without the aggravation of dealing with Microsoft software.
Gold: It's OK To Be Wrong, It's Not OK To Stay Wrong [View article]
1.) Savings accounts pay next to nothing. The last several years have proven that in such an environment one had better have some savings in gold and silver.
2.). The FED balance sheet has increased by two trillion dollars balanced by two trillion extra dollars out in the economy. The FED can only mop up these extra dollars by selling assets on their balance sheet. How can they sell these assets without impairing their price? If we have stronger inflation(which is baked in the cake) how is the FED going to stop it?
3.). Gold and silver fell because people were too leveraged. The massive volumes in the sell off give a green light to accumulate here. I suggest folks buy the PMs here. But probably best to buy slowly.

Win8 will not support a 5P printer?
If this be true this is a glaring defect. I am pretty certain you don't get these issues with Linux. In fact the older drivers are always easier with Linux.

Windows is not designed to work?
Your post makes no sense as I am not asking Vista to do anything other than work. And if it breaks some way to fix it besides reboot and pray.

What is the NG equivalent of a $90 barrel?
Natural Gas: Last Month's Rally Review And Near-Term Outlook [View article]
Well then, let the debate begin. This is the BTU equivalent of about a $30 barrel of oil. We have seen NG at parity with oil in the past.
So can $5 NG be sustainable in the face of $90 oil?

I like them because they have a lot of option action.
Also their price is close to the underlying which makes them easy to track.
I am a bit worried about the counter party risk but their risk must be less than SLW anyway.
