They have their moments. There are also incidents though like them forcing Microsoft to remove windows media player from Windows XP, and forcing Microsoft to set up a browser choice window the first time you try using the internet to ask
Re: just got a Iphone6 plus, cases and questions
Yay Browser Choice. Apple isnt yet a monopoly, so it cant use its clout in the OS space to influence the browser market. Maybe the case can be made that it has cornered the digital music player market and is using it to foist iTunes, though
Re: just got a Iphone6 plus, cases and questions
I dont think Apple have a monopoly on media player software so much as they have a near monopoly on digital music sales.

You can turn it off in Win10, thankfully. You can right-click Start button and choose whether you want TIFKAM or desktop; a tiny little gesture of regret.

Re: just got a Iphone6 plus, cases and questions
TIFKAM: The Interface Formerly Known As Metro. I have native IPv6 at home from my ISP. Therefore I need an OS to put it to use, and although you can add IPv6 onto XP it is not complete and wont work without also having IPv4 around for DNS

Re: just got a Iphone6 plus, cases and questions
It all depends on the software in question, the more complex the software the more likely it is to fail. XP isnt even built on DOS like 9X was, it emulates it like a poor mans dos box. As for things like VB6, in a sense I can see your point

This is one case where Apple actually provide. Try the silicone case, which covers the side and back except for the controls and camera and NFC, that normalises the phone to flat surfaces, keeps the corners from getting scratched

My understanding, and this may of course be wrong, was that your card info is stored with Apple just like with the app store or iTunes store and the chip in the iPhone 6 simply identifies and authorises the merchant to take payment through

About the Apple pay and your card info being on your phone, Apple says that the info doesnt leave your phone. Its stored locally on a chip in the phone that will not give your card info to venders and such.Im not 100% sure on how it works
