    They tend to let things linger and die rather than keeping them up or improve them. I had Sprint as a local phone company and DSL ISP in the early to mid-2000s. The other options i…

    I rarely check my phone. I would like a tough phone to carry for emergencies while hiking. I couldn't completely switch because there is no way I am typing out a text with a phone …

    The people making comments about killing the engine is a monumentally bad idea. If the car has a conventional key ignition, turning the key even to the accessory position can engag…

    How about AOL stop whining about paying for medical care, and stop employing "digital prophets"? Perhaps then they could afford both the insurance costs and 401(k)s. http://www.upr…

    I have absolutely no problem with paying money to the government so damn near everybody can get decent internet service if they want it. Corporations have shown over and over that …

    Two months is an awfully short research project. Guess with results like the Kin, they saw the writing on the wall. Microsoft should have told Verizon they were just testing the wa…
