Usage-Based Pricing? So What!

There’s way too much controversy around wireless providers' usage-based pricing schemes. It's their business... Heck, let them run it.

Saunders is wrong on Hulu, Fritz thinks. By most measures it's been a success, and there's no reason this model won't become even bigger in the next three years. Oh, and he hates Steve's hat.

In order for banks to grow, they'll first have to start by retaining their standing client bases. To do this will require better customer service and more transparency. Banks are meeting these needs through more automated commodity services and mobile banking applications.

Personal Mobile TV Makes Its Debut
10|14|09   |   2:28   |   7 comments

Mobile TV is everywhere, and yet, nowhere. Nobody uses it – because the handsets aren't good, the pricing is too high, and the coverage is not good enough. But Qualcomm's FloTV Personal TV aims to change all of that.

Win 7: Last Big OS Ever?
10|2|09   |   1:25   |   3 comments

When Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer went on the road to pitch Windows 7, it felt like the old days of big OS wars, Fritz Nelson reports. But new and much more significant wars are now being fought at the browser, on Netbooks and Smartphones, and what matters most is access to Internet applications (especially enterprise software in the cloud). Windows 7 may be the best ever, but it may also be the last, Nelson thinks.

Intel's Haswell On-Die GPU Is Lean, Powerful & Built for Cloud
Jason Mick
Whether you’re an engineering firm that uses CAD for parts design, or an e-business that leverages Photoshop for user-interface graphics, you likely require a modest graphics-processing unit. In the old days, this was a daunting hurdle to innovation, but today, the situation has improved thanks to technologies like NVIDIA’s GRID and Microsoft’s RemoteFX. Such virtualized graphics protocols allow you to load-balance graphics-intensive workloads from virtual desktops on a server-side graphics card.

None of the those students got a perfect score.
