It's time to see those earnings...

1st quarter earnings are being released this week and into the next. I found an article about the construction of Apple's latest operating system, Lion, that has yet to be released to the public but may be able to protect users privacy. The new browser will feature a "do not track" feature to block websites from following your Internet tendencies to try and sell you things. It has been a topic of how intrusive is some of this stuff and it is becoming very annoying. You cannot go online now and now be bombarded with flashing lights of similar shoes you just bought on the side of the yahoofinance article you are trying to read.

I have Apple's Snow Leapord OS and have been very happy with the system. I am a strong believer in Apple products and expect the Lion to be fast and effective. Apple's Safari browser currently accounts for about 6.6% of Web browser users on the Internet, compared with 55.9% for Microsoft's Internet Explorer and 21.8% for Mozilla's Firefox, according to estimates. Today (Wed. April, 13), Republican Cliff Stearns (R.Fla.) introduced privacy legislation that would encourage companies to offer more information to consumers about how they are being tracked.
