Wii: Can't keep up with demand or supply artificially limited
What's really behind the Wii shortages? Is it that Nintendo can't keep up with the demand, or are supplies of the console being artificially limited in order to drive up sales?

Given that I've made numerous posts relating to benchmarking Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) on this blog over the past few weeks I thought that many readers would appreciate a single post that pulled together all the individual posts and which drew together the thoughts, findings and conclusions from the individual posts.
Apple has released its Q3 financials ... and guess what? The company announced all-time record revenue and earnings.
Face it - Elvis is dead and both Vista and Leopard failed to make grab the hearts of users in the way that their makers hoped they would.
Net Application's data for April is out, and it shows that Google Chrome is the only browser making any real usage gains. Why?
What's funny about this week back "in the seat" is plowing through the enormous backlog of email that I accumulated over the holiday period. It seems that while I was ringing in the new year and a new decade (the memory is a bit foggy ... champagne does that to me), quite a number of readers wanted my take on various predictions. By far the most popular "prediction" that you wanted me to comment on was regarding what part Linux will play over the coming 12 months and into the decade.
If you've been patiently waiting for Firefox 3.6 to appear, then I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little longer. It seems that Mozilla has suffered a few end-of-year blues and as a result won't be releasing the new browser for a few weeks.

It seems that Firefox contains a unknown root certificate that nobody seems to know anything about.
On Monday Apple released Mac OS X update 10.6.3. This monster update weighed in at up to 719MB (depending on current configuration) and patched a whopping 92 vulnerabilities, some third of which were rated as critical. Is it time for Apple to adopt a "Patch Tuesday" for the Mac OS in order to drip-feed patches to users and plug up vulnerabilities in a more timely fashion? Is Apple putting good PR ahead of keeping users safe?
