They hype has been immense surrounding the Kindle Fire. I really hope the screen is as responsive as the iPad, because if it is, I believe it could really contend well. At a basement price of $199 to the iPad, sales should be through the roof if it performs. The only drawback I see for it is that Kindle has the name in books. This really isn’t a book reader.

I take care of my farm because it gets my mind off other things. It’s no different than any other video game. You get nothing but entertainment out of it. Like any other RPG, you just continually do things leveling up your character until you decide to stop playing. I think...

I’ll be the first one to tell you I don’t like Apple products, but I personally did not have anything against Steve Jobs. Now with the release of his autobiography, I’m disliking his character more and more. I recently read the CNN Article on Steve Job’s Autobiography and was even more disappointed in some of the things I read. For instance, hiding the bonus from his future partner Wozniak and pocketing the entire thing...
