Is there any possible recourse against the judge for the damages caused to No-ip's business? This seems like an incredible violation of their rights, and generally a bogus and abusive use of the legal system.
Android tablets? They are cheaper than the 8-bit micros of the 70s and 80s, outselling everything, and come with Javascript. The only problem is they don't usually come with much of a proper keyboard + text editor for editing code. So, a kid still has to take some initiative to get a bit of software before being able to actually code something. (Kind of lame, I hope that changes - it was nice being a kid when computers were programmable out of the box without requiring anything extra. Then again, we didn't have the internet back then, so getting new stuff into the computer wasn't as simple.)
I wonder what today's generation growing up on?
Immediately HTML+Javascript comes to mind, as a language interpreter that every kid's computer comes with.
I would guess that is the top "first language" for kids today, with things like C#, Python, Ruby, PHP and Java somewhere in 2nd place (as popular server side and classoom languages).
These guys are selling new Apple II software, too -- Apple II DMS Drummer Software:

It is a sample-based music sequencer, which is fairly amazing considering the audio hardware in the Apple II was only capable of producing a "click" when a bit of memory got poked. (Getting that clicker to play back waveforms is all a matter of clicking at the right times.)
Sure, but that assumes they have ads or ad providers for your region. What if they don't? Then who pays for it?
Just a guess, really.
I think it may have to do with advertising targeting different regions. If they're advertising something you can't buy in your country, then what is the advertiser paying for?
Hey openoffice mouse, I'm real happy for you and I'mma let you finish. But iMac's hockey puck was one of the ugliest mice of all time.
edit: seriously, I'm joking.
