Accusing the company of "jumping on the pro-gay bandwagon" by hiring DeGeneres, who is an open lesbian, the 40,000-member group "One Million Moms" posted a note on Facebook and called on its members to call the retail chain....<br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/>

The AppleInsider hints had Apple's high-end notebooks being overhauled over the course of 2012 to more closely resemble the MacBook Air, dropping optical drives and slimming down.  Rumors of a 15-inch Air were more likely references to Apple repeating what it did with the unibody MacBook Pro, where the 15-inch model led the redesign and other sizes followed later....<br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/>

In the chat with Pocket-lint, he insisted that image quality was the primary factor and that Apple wouldn't have the image scaling or "world-renowned" picture quality.

The company is said to have initially raised the album's wholesale price at about 4AM on Sunday, causing its price to automatically jump at places like the iTunes Store.  At the UK iTunes Store, the cost rose from £5 to £8; the album is actually an old one, a best-of compilation dating back to 1997....<br clear="both" style="clear: both;"/>

The court rejected Google's view that engineer Tim Lindholm's message, which told top staff that they needed a Java license for Android, was subject to attorney-client privilege.
