Yahoo yard sale: Microsoft's bid for Yahoo may have a few roadblocks, namely, Apple and News Corp. Both companies are believed to be considering bidding on the beleaguered Yahoo.

 

Torvalds talks operating systems: Linux founder, Linus Torvalds, told a Linux conference audience that Leopard is in some ways worse than Vista. He believes Leopard is a better system than Vista but is too difficult to program for. In a surprise, he went on to say that Linux is pretty rad.

 

Apple Store in China: Just in time for the 2008 Summer Olympics, Apple is opening a retail store in Beijing. Now you can get a new iPhone while you await the triple jump finals.

 

You got 14 days: 8GB iPhone owners with buyers remorse have 14 days to replace their current device with a larger capacity iPhone or iPod touch and only pay the price difference.
