What will be the size of the largest Apple TV at introduction?
Knowing Apple - they will introduce a small 37" TV then a few months later once all the "Apple-lovers" have bought one will introduce a larger one - and keep doing this so they can make as much money as possible, and leave behind as much electronic junk as possible - I'm basing this on what they do with the iPhone...

XBox One vs. PS4 - Which will be the top selling console in 2013?
As much as I like the Xbox I think Sony has the major advantage when it comes to advertising and promotion. Also Xbox scared a lot of people off from their new console with threats of DRM protection against re-selling software, etc, and whilst they've done away with this there is still a possibility they may re-introduce it in the future. The major problem with the Xbox 360 was that for online gaming you needed a Gold account subscription where as the PS3 online gaming was free of charge, and I think this DRM protection will also put people off further from the Xbox range of consoles.

Will Bill Gates return to Microsoft in 2013?
Even though Gates doesn't need Microsoft he probably will return to turn the company he founded around, same way Steve Jobs did with Apple. Whether he can be as successful as Jobs though is a big question.

If he plans on just selling WM phones through the Nokia branding to bring back Microsoft and continue with the ant-start menu system of Windows 8 then he'll probably fail big time though.

Will the Microsoft Windows 8 "Kill Switch" be hacked?
I wouldn't even give them a year, hackers possibly already have details of it that have been leaked from inside Microsoft and already working on a hack.

XBox One vs. PS4 - Which will be the top selling console in 2013?
I like Xbox and Xbox was the first of the two last gen consoles I bought, but as long as Sony don't screw the release up again for Europe like they did last time PS4 is a cert.

The problem is Microsoft have caused so many problems with their new gen console with all the rumours flying around about banning people from re-selling games, to the console needing to be always on. Ok they've now backtracked on these ideas but have said they may re-introduce them later. This will make people very wary about buying the console.

Will Syria agree to set their chemical weapons storage sites under international control?
No - they will play the same game that Iraq did with it's "chemicals of mass destruction". Regardless of whether they do turn them over to intl control the US will probably still accuse them of having some hidden and attack them anyway.

It's been done numerous times before.
