I dont think you did convey the same point as Joe.Originally Posted by gWaPito
That was my point Joe..obviously I didn't put it over correctly
I was also trying to get over that im surprised Lastlid used that quote...like you state..everybody uses concepts...otherwise we'd still be driving around on a horse and cart...this is why competition is so important.
If only the Philippines would open there doors
what are you 3 waffling on about
looks like you've all had too much of dedworths bargain beer

Hmm....that was a bit careless, but probably similar to when I wrote off my first Lotus Seven by somersaulting it several times at 70mph.
Anyway, fortunately I can't take part in this thread, as I haven't a clue what anyone is talking about. In fact my current computer looks remarkably like the one they're all taking the piss out of, so anything newer than a phone with a camera on it (which I haven't progressed to yet) is a bit beyond me.
I wasn't taking the pee Graham...I was thinking along the same lines...looks remarkably like the setup I brought my wife in PhilippinesHmm....that was a bit careless, but probably similar to when I wrote off my first Lotus Seven by somersaulting it several times at 70mph.

It did its job for us and I saved loads on phone bills....I paid 18000 for it in January 2009...when wife came here it was passed on to family..its still going strong .....money well spent.....unlike the over priced Apple products......yes, my wife got one, what she does with her allowance is her business although, she did say on reflection she would of preferred the Samsung.
This new Apple ruling (applicable to usa only) is comparable to Ford saying anyother car manufacturers putting wheels to there cars is breaking there patent
Only in America....the centre of the universe
Not really. I see your point but its isn't quite the same thing. Not a good analogy.I wasn't taking the pee Graham...I was thinking along the same lines...looks remarkably like the setup I brought my wife in Philippines

On the contrary...going by win2win's factual post # 71, I am indeed on the button. Not bad for someone reading nearly everything between the lines
I got nothing against companies producing quality products at a fair price....but Apple's main motivation is rob and monopolise with no due consideration to competition.
Seeing how you've stated in previous posts you got an open mind ....really, you giving a good impression of the opposite.
Anyway...happy bank holiday Monday
Ha. Its a new 599. He gets all the jibes...
"Hows the new Fiat?" and all that.
Such people are just jealous.
I'd love a 599.
True petrolheads respect a thoroughbred....whatever the make.
Now you are talking over my head as I know very little about such cars.
Forza4 (Xbox360) is a great and surprisingly realistic way to sample all the exotica...including the the 599.
I use a good steering wheel and pedals.
Here my first drive in the TVR Tuscan, a very tricky car to drive and similar in layout to the 599.
(there are no hesitations in the actual game...that's the fault of the upload).

Quoting the Daily Mail, so it must be true...
"Samsung ordered to pay Apple more than $1BILLION after jury says they STOLE patented iPhone designs - and now faces having to pull ALL their cellphones and tablets from the U.S."

“The result will likely be an increase in costs to Android users because of licensing fees to Apple,” Houston-based intellectual property lawyer Steve Mitby told Wired. In layman’s terms: expect Android phones to cost more. “This will drive many Android consumers over to Apple. Next to Samsung, the biggest loser today is Google.”

Ok Lastlid...its been established in an unbiased
Not suggesting Apple nobbled the jury but this all stinks of corruption...reminds me when the yanks tried to stop the Japs importing there far superior cars.
Yes, Samsung copied but what they did was copied and further refined then sold at a far cheaper price...the consumers win...this is why Apple went to considerable time and expense to shut Samsung down...good for the consumer?...I think not.
All Apple is doing is creating a monopoly..simply as that....some consumers are mugs....they wanna pay over the top for Apple products knowing full well.....at least until recently
All I can say then is, there are an awful lot of mugs about if your supposition is correct. Not everyone wants to buy budget brands or cheap copies. Hence the car analogy. If we all wanted to do was err that way then we would all be driving skodas or a similar budget brand car. We don't all want to be drinking the cheapest coffee in the cheapest coffee house even if you do, or the cheapest of anything. Have you always gone for the cheapest options?Ok Lastlid...its been established in an unbiased

On the matter of cheaper imitations, yes the customer maybe gains that way but as the man said, loses out in terms of innovative alternatives.
Who's talking about cheap brands cheap coffee etc
The Samsung is equally neither cheap or nasty...its a very good phone....much better in quality compared to your iphone....remember I have both
WOW. Now you are making me laugh.who's talking about cheap brands cheap coffee etc

...Having said that, I would still rather that we hadn't taught the Japs how to make cars and the Koreans how to build ships...and everything else.
Selling guns to the Red Indians set a bad precedent.
A sobering perspective on this topic. Yes. It has come back to bite us all in the butt. Not good for the UK consumer / economy at all....Having said that, I would still rather that we hadn't taught the Japs how to make cars and the Koreans how to build ships...and everything else.

Honestly....
I just don't agree with your skewed perspective.Honestly....
...If I can just shoulder my way in here.
I have a good accountant, so pay hardly any tax at all.
I think the cat's got his tongue....either that or planning another angle of attack
...and wi-fi...and 3 different game consoles.
Talking about older computers...as recently as 2000 the computer I shipped out to the Phils for us to use had only 32mb of RAM and a 2 gig hard drive. lol
Talk about slow. You could go and cook lunch while a picture was downloading off the internet.

This PC I'm using now was built (by me) in 2003.
I do have a 42" SAMSUNG TV though...connected to it....plus two mahoosive Hi-Fis, also connected up to the old girl.
