From the article, this is particularly telling - "The idea is to unite Canadian money and foreign brains". Haven't yet seen a statement that says the VC must be Canadian, but the quote implies it. Seems to me that if you're a VC in Canada, you just got a massive handout in the cornering of the immigrant-founded startup market.
Actually, I think Brigner deserves more credit than he's given here. His arguments make a pretty damn good case for not using Windoze(TM) computers on the internet.
Since the VM's were deleted and are no longer available for use by the family, yet the reporters had the opportunity to benefit from them, isn't that theft?
Took me a sec to compile simple evidence, here ya go:
You said, "Everyone knows who was first, and they will always trust the group that actually came up with the idea, and was the first to provide that idea for people to use."
If you read this site with any regularity, you'd know that *all* of the issues you raise have been addressed. Just not necessarily in this one specific post.
Right up to the point that they include in the EULA for the device (yes, it's possible to do that) that they own the copyright on all images output by the device. Really doesn't seem to be too much of a stretch.
Unless, of course, you've got your head in the sand.
Yeah, tech is so totally stuck doing the same thing over and over again. That's why I can still buy - at retail - the same B&W screen, non-wifi enabled, no app PDA that I had in 2000. So glad you cleared that up.
You'd be surprised at how true this really is. I used to be a game tester for them back in the PS2 days testing games for platform compliance. We were theoretically supposed to be finding bugs before a game went gold. Reality tho was that we would have to write up any and all game issues which could create a liability for Sony. 80+ Game Testers writing up "bugs" about trademarks appearing in other publishers' titles. We worked for the Legal Dept.
If he builds his own site(s)...
Why is this the second line of most of the html files?

Irony?

That's a really good point, thanks for clearing that up, and Mike really should address it.

Saw some french rifles for sale recently - never been fired and only dropped once. You can now find similar items in Texas.

Apparently they can't coexist...
Uhh, didn't realize communication mediums were a zero-sum game. So glad Keller has cleared that up.

Spending spree?
Well, at least it's obvious what they plan to spend their money on. Lawyers!
Seriously, they could go start ten damn companies to compete. Cry me an f'in river.
