They didn’t create the first MP3 player, but they created the first massively commercially successful one.
Going back to what others have mentioned about Apple, the iPod's success was a big part because of the intuitive interface. If it's easy to learn and use, it will become popular.
Strive to be the Moriarty you might be.
Way too many good movies to have a single best, but that one is one of my favorites certainly. If I recommend it to someone I avoid any spoiling of the twist because it was so great when it happened. It might be obvious before that point for some, it came from left field for me.
And while I heard the sequel wasn't all that great, I felt that even if a sequel could be good it was totally unneeded. It'd be like trying to make a second Highlander movie, if one could even imagine that.
IBM is how he got into the PC infrastructure via licensing. He saw what the execs didn't, that anyone could build hardware but what ran on it controlled the world. And I don't know how true it is, but my understanding is that Gates was so shrewd he bet on getting that agreement before he even had the software in hand. Which if true says even more about the IBM execs who agreed to something sight unseen.
Later Geordi shows him that authority when ejecting the warp core before Will gives the actual order to set off the Riker Maneuver.
Some music doesn't have to be deep to be good. I never got the impression people in the pit at a AC/DC concert were analyzing the lyrics.
The Time Traveler's Wife is an interesting twist on things, including free will. I haven't seen the series version.
Meh, embrace the stereotype. I love being a Trekkie stickler. I'm also now annoyed that I realize there's a difference. :/
The Binar long con prank. They must still be laughing.
At least Reg was using the characters to deal with his anxiety in reality. Geordi should have known better though and at least had a bit of security on that holodeck program. Even if Leah had been into him right away, seeing that playback would still be awkward.
Lol, yeah, totally right. I guess I strung those two together being they are part of an undeclared trilogy.
Tolkien fanatics: "Link?"
Also...link?
