I don't think they'd attempt it unless they had something that would disrupt the market. Intel has been rusting on its laurels without credible competition, and if Apple manages to steal a march on them with a new…

If Apple needs to, they could buy either Autodesk or Adobe. To be honest, I'd prefer the buy and port Solidworks.
Reminds me of the old "Fixing Solaris" file from the '90s (and the Fixing SunOS that was its forebear.)
ARM is a very compeitive field of a number of manufacturers, building chips for billions of devices. The advantage is no longer Intel's. More, the Great Old Ones - IBM with their zSeries and Power8 and now Oracle with…
This is absolutely true. Worse, those brackets each define a different modal state. Even more worse, some languages ran out of brackets for all the purposes they wanted brackets for, so they invented their own - is…

The MacOS X ecosystem is 25 years old now, counting NextStep, and has an installed base of close to a hundred million systems, most of them unsophisticated personal computer users running a full Unix operating system…
Apple has always been exceptional in this regard as well. It usually drives people up a wall when this is pointed out, as the fanboys like to trumpet it a bit too loudly, but it's true. In-the-wild exploits are rare,…
Firefox is Netscape. There's a reason you download it from Mozilla.org. It's an amazing demonstration of the power of open source to allow good software to exist and thrive beyond its original mission.
This is incorrect. The average user, globally, uses Android as their main OS. Desktops in developing nations are never going to reach the same level of ubiquity as in the US and Europe. AAA Gaming there will be…
