Tech meltdown hits some harder than others
The Associated Press
7:28 PM EST January 22, 2009

The economic recession is hurting every industry, and technology is no
exception - big names like Microsoft Corp., Intel Corp. and Dell Inc.
have had layoffs as they try to cut costs and stay competitive amid
declining sales.

But the effects of the meltdown haven't been spread evenly across the
sector - even within companies, sales of certain products may fall while
others are more resilient. It seems that the health of tech companies
has a lot to do with what they sell, and who their customers are."It's
definitely a mixed and complicated picture here," Forrester Research
analyst Andy Bartels said.

Here are some questions and answers about how the tech industry is
weathering the financial crisis.
Q: How is this recession different for tech companies than the last one?

A: The 2001 recession stemmed in large part from the bursting of the
tech industry bubble. This time around, the industry has been caught up
in the downturn but is not a major cause - areas like housing and
banking are taking much of the blame.

Another difference: Nowadays, products like MP3 players and cell phones
are more integrated than ever into consumers' everyday lives, and
software and computers are increasingly intertwined with companies'
operating needs.

Q: How are companies that sell things like cell phones and computers
being affected thus far?

A: Retail sales, both on and off the Web, have been slowing as consumers
put off buying new things - electronics included. According to The NPD
Group, U.S. holiday sales of electronics and computers dropped 5.7
percent compared with last year.

This drop-off in spending hurt companies from Intel, which is seeing
less demand for its computer chips as PC sales drop, to Nokia Corp.,
which said the number of cell phones it shipped during the fourth
quarter dropped 15 percent from the year-ago quarter.

Look, Roy. I have NEVER made a gay slur. That is ALL YOU DO.

Do you even understand the difference?

Roy... You are "available" from WebTV. That is A: obsolete, and B: not
"every available medium".

In other words, you retarded twit, you are about as far behind the
technology curve as any person can possibly get. And you PAY THEM for
their "SERVICE"! Bwuahahahahaah!

Hahahah... yeah, Roy... they are servicing you alright. How does it
feel when it is slipping in?

Trollopping is not a word, Roy. Is there anything about you that isn't
100% retarded?

**** you, Roy. You are so fucking stupid that despite the fact that
EVERYONE EXPLAINS EVERYTHING to your DUMB ASS, you still can't get a

are you so "gay" you need everyone to

Not gay, you REATARDED ****!
THAT'S GAY DUDE.

No, Roy, but your remarks do prove that you are retarded.
Hell if I see a retarded individual on

Yes, Roy. We can tell. That why we do not like you. You are a
bigoted, retarded little bastard.

Leave retarded folks alone, Roy. You cannot help anyone in the world,
no matter how hard you try, so give it up, asshole.
he can certainly get along on his own.

A retarded, bigoted **** like you wouldn't know.
Dammit! what are you my fairy godtroll?

No, I am your worst nightmare.
You are the one that has made a whole big deal about it.

No, I didn't. You were fine until you mouthed off like a little ten
year old pussy boy. You bad mouthed my mom. For that, you are lucky to
still be alive. This treatment you get here is mild, boy.
So I'm
retarded,


You most certainly are, fuckhead.
you're a fucking faggot,

No, I am not, fuckhead.
**** it I don't care,

Apparently you do. You actually draft posts about that instead of
anything even remotely related to the topic this group is about.
I don't like
you,

Good for you, pussy boy.
get a clue, leave me alone.

**** off, then die, and leave this fucking group while you are at it,
and you will get your wish. Remain here, and all your stupidity will be
outlined with every post you make. You deserve nothing less.

You keep this shit up harassing me like it's your duty, but it's more of
a retarded gay fixation, Idiot... Don't try to cast the beam out of my
eye, when you have a pretty big splinter in yours...

These rants and decision of yours to point out my alleged stupidity only
points out that You are a closet case, admit it closet boy, just leave
me alone you are not getting any satisfaction from me.

I am also much better at Electrical Engineering Technology & Work than
you are, for the Retard unSchooled **** you think I am. My posts and
responses shouldn't worry you at all, closet case..

You on the other hand, who knows what access you have to sensitive data
and equipment or how many lives depend on you - you are a living
nightmare you stupid sick ****..Shame on the mess you've created !

Why don't you tell us your real agenda?

Are you scared of your own shadow?

{{{{{You're Being a Hater}}}}} Get over it.

Accept, Forgive and Move On......

I don't hold grudges for long you on the other hand keep posting hate in
your replies, there are No Idiots Here...
Behave yourself and all will be well.

Smile, and the World will Smile with you.

Trouble is you've Violated your own Code of Conduct with your Trollops.

THAT'S WHAT'S REALLY SO MESSED UP TO YOU - KEEPING UP THIS WAR ONLY
DEBILITATES YOUR "ORIGINAL RESOLVE" - GOOD WORKS, PEACE, RIGHTEOUSNESS
AND A CLEAN AND PROFESSIONAL USENET.

It's hard for you to turn back now, right?
YOU'RE AFRAID OF THE MONSTER YOU'VE BECOME - I can clean the slate and
align myself without any of your help, can You do the same?

I am not afraid to be myself....a studious, applied, decent but down to
earth, long suffering, hard working, amicable person.

The group deserves nothing less.

No, you are not. Do you get 15 or 20 hours of OT a day where you get to
make the world a safer place? NO. Your "contribution" to society is the
abuse you perform in this group. You do not do anything on any day that
is not for the betterment of ROY'S ass. You have never done anything for
others in your life, and your attitude here proves it.

for the Retard unSchooled **** you think I am.


You obviously are, or you would not be in here abusing this group with

I'll bet you feel a little bit more secure when you make such retarded
accusations, but the reality hits home when I respond with more RoyFag

in the face, idiot.
