Smart technology aims to help iCops. This should be interesting!

Do the Police run iMacs for their desktops? How easy is it these days to sync an iCrap device to a Windows PC?

Was it ever hard???
Linux however is a different story

Dunno about the Rozzers Masho but I use SyncMate 'cos I'm not a Techy much and it works for me orright, sniff.

Fook knows... I haven't had to do any Apple - PC integration since MAC share on NT 4 days (painful in ways)

Apparently right. You're anti-Apple (through ignorance like most) & suspect always will be. There is so much wrong in your post it's pointless trying to learn you. End of day your anti-Apple stance is only your loss really

Exactly why I never bothered to respond. Won't get anywhere.

Complexity does not mean power, nor does a well designed UI mean that something is "useless"

I still don't get this crazy brand loyalty to these tech firms. Use whatever works for you, why get so emotional over what company someone decides to buy their stuff from?

Use whatever works for you is right.

For some people though it's like a personal attack on them if you don't like a certain brand.

To a degree, whatever works should periodically be upgraded to whatever works best. Course, the choice of what works best should include the cost of change, which is what a lot of people don't seem to understand, making their assertions of user stupidity somewhat ironic.

Not all people are innovators or early adopters though. So, what works well for a short time for some, may work well for a much longer time for others.

Those who make assertions of user stupidity have a tendency to make other idiotic assertions often.

Yup, but there are many who use old stuff because of an aversion to change, then when they finally do go to a newer system, wish they had earlier; just about finding out and balancing that cost of change.

haha, you've noticed that too then

It's about having an open mind as well so they can do the finding out and balancing that cost of change.

I couldn't resist commenting on the stupidity bit.

Yep that kind if attitude will take you really far.

He's correct. If a 3 year old can unlock a Galaxy and play Angry Birds or the Barbie game, then any adult would have to be retareded not be able to handle one.
