...McCain picking Palin is a big insult to the electorate and to intelligent women everywhere. The first criterion to gauge a candidate's readiness for the presidency is his judgment. And McCain has failed this test pretty badly. No matter how the GOP spinmeisters pad Palin's alarmingly thin record of public service, the majority of the American people are, hopefully, smart enough to see through their tactics. C. Echevarria-Leary, Pinole, Calif...
...paste function in e-mail is a bit dopey: it doesn't let you rearrange individual words or phrases; instead, you can only cut and paste an entire message. And while the built-in camera is a full megapixel higher than the iPhone's, you still can't record video. One big drawback for music lovers may be the G1's lack of iTunes; without it, you can't play copy-protected songs purchased from Apple's music store unless you convert them to MP3s first. There is an unbranded music player built by Google, however, and Amazon...
...tragedy of Apple is, of course, well known. Jobs, a young visionary, and his older, nerdier pal, Steve Wozniak, created the first true personal computer in 1976.

The rise of the IBM-compatible PC a decade later, which ran Microsoft's operating system, smashed Apple. The key to the PC's success and Apple's downfall was that the open-standards-based IBM-compatible PC created a platform for third...

Bailey declined to release additional figures as an audit has yet to be completed, but stated that without the $13 million tag, the Health Alliance would have been on “very solid footing...
...Times, and it tracks the veracity of presidential campaign statements and advertisements. As of late September, with the two candidates virtually tied, Obama's mostly true to mostly false tally was 65 to 33, while McCain's was 47 to 51. Jackson thinks it's possible that McCain's record is now lopsided enough that he may actually be in the rare position of risking a backlash from voters. "We may be seeing the start of a narrative that John McCain and Sarah Palin are running an untruthful campaign," he says...
