For a short while in the 1980s and early 1990s, it was computing, thanks to the release of the Apple IIe, the IBM PC and the Mac. Were it not for that Window® of opportunity, I hate to think what would have become of me.

Cube 2: Sauerbraten Apple Investigates iPad Users' Wi-Fi Complaints Hundreds of new iPad owners’ complaints about Wi-Fi connectivity issues with their tablets prompted Apple to investigate the problem. Just weeks after the new iPad went on sale, AppleCare has been instructed to “capture” and replace affected units, according to a leaked internal memo seen by 9to5Mac.

To date, the thread documenting poor Wi-Fi reception on the new iPad has more than 720 replies and has been viewed more than 62,000 times--a small percentage overall of the 3 million new iPads sold in the first three days alone.
