BB, you probably use that same Internet Explorer, don't you?

By your idea of "proper branding", anything related to Internet should have Internet in its name.

Microsoft wins again

Imagine a first-time computer user faced with a screen allowing he or she to choose a browser.

- Microsoft Internet Explorer
- Mozilla Firefox
- Google Chrome
- Apple Safari
- Operasoftware Opera Browser

Which is he/she going to pick? Obviously the one that works for the "internet" not these weirdly named browsers that may or may not be for browsing collections of opera music. It reminds me of the whacky names some open source software organizations choose for their product. Even Ubuntu's package manager--the portal to adding other software to Ubuntu--has some oddball name whose function is not readily apparent.

I guess it does pay to have proper branding.

Three? Right!

I do not know what OS X has to do in this thread about Win 7, but you have obviously paid for 5 rediculously overpriced computers that subsidize the OS's :)

Three?

Then I'll be 2 installations short... At least. I guess 5 is the right number, as Mac OSX.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
