Something tells me it's more than 16 more gigs.
adamman··on With Sinofsky gone and Start8 selling well, will MS add the start menu back?

adamman··on Mozilla may make Flash click-to-play by default in future Firefox
Firefox would lose a lot of users if they did this. There are a lot of people who don't understand plugins and they would probably just find this feature to be annoying and use IE or Chrome instead.
adamman··on The Milky Way in HTML5
Maybe that is a good thing.

Very few Facebook game developers use flashes premium features, so this royalty fee won't apply to them.
