Lots of free lunches: the dregs left over after the salespeople have their noon meetings.

This infographic is like watching a politician spin their selfish agenda into a "think of the children!" plea. Pretty funny actually.

I don't understand why the TC diaspora gets so much attention. Have they earned the spotlight for reasons other than just being inflammatory?

I can see there being a market. My mom buys all her crap if and only if it says "Mac compatible" on the box. I remind her that it's all the same hardware standards these days, but …

I'm taking the opportunity to spam my friends and family with this news. "Check out the Google logo today! Wonder why it's a big black bar?" It's jarring and it piques people's cur…
