A Look Back at Apple's 2003
Samvit writes "The end of the year is upon us, so it's naturally time for those retrospectives to start coming in. Ars Technica has a fantastic look back at Apple in 2003. 2003 was one of the biggest years for Apple, arguably the biggest in a very long time. Still, Ars is typically fair, so the author lays down not only the good in 2003, but also the bad and the ugly. There's a bit of prognostication going on too--a little something for everyone."

Macs really are the best for building porn sites. We don't have to worry about all those nasty scripts that change your home page and infect your computer. Just build and submit without worry.
Thanks for your letter. Being Catholic myself, I know exactly what you're talking about! It has always been our plan here at Apple Computer Inc to revolutionize personal computing with our high-quality and highly gay products.
I'm happy to answer your letter by letting you know that YES we will be releasing an entire hLife ("homo-life") software line. You'll be able to recognize it in stores by the small stylized logo depicting a large cock entering a tight anus with an Apple logo on it. ("Suddenly it all comes together" indeed!).
Anyway, I hope you and other members of our community will join us on our mission, and purchase the exciting new hLife boxed set. Only the boxed set comes with translucent cock rings!

GET IT? OMG RORFL
First of all, you missed my point ENTIRELY.
*** WOOSH ***
HEAR THAT, FATTY MCFUCKFACE? That's the sound of MY STORY going COMPLETLY over your OILY ZIT-ENCRUSTED HEAD.
Like I would even go NEAR a piece of JAPANEESE SHIT like a HONDA. The last GOOD THING those greasy Japs ever made was THE ATOMIC BOMB.
Second, after reading your linked article, I can only conclude that the people killed were niggers. I mean, 7 people, in one car, running from the cops? And the driver is 18 and has a name like "Quentin Maurice Reed"? Don't tell me that wasn't a stolen Cadalliac Escalade full of shitskins "runnin' from da po-po, heebly-geebly ghaada buu." Those are some good police officers if they were able to run a clown-car full of coons into a tree. The world is a better place with less negroes. Give the officers a medal.
It truley was buggy, it destroyed my IPOD! In fact, I even uninstalled OS X alltogether and went to Linux on the Mac. I will never us e OSX again, they will probably make another OSX 10.4, and call it Lion or Leoperd, and add more bugs. Well they can shove their $129 and shove it. I will not be buying the G5, in fact I am concidering getting an Athlon 64 system for a third of the price!

In these cases, the Mac is just anti-productive: The stupid desktop animations can't be turned off entirely (though they can be minimized), and the one-button mouse is just a travesty to navigation compared to a two button mouse with scroll wheel. With XP, I was able to turn off all the stupid fading/animation effects and actually get stuff done fast.
The net effect is that I, at least, work a lot slower on a Mac today than I do on a Windows machine. Hence my anti-Mac status. I'll give you that Macs look awesome, the iPod is neat (I'm sure I'll buy one eventually), but that doesn't go a long way when it takes ten times as long to launch WORD on a Mac than it does on a Windows machine.
Dude, I think I can see my house from here.

And don't forget that it takes 20 minutes to copy a 640k file across gigabit ethernet with the G4 as opposed to mere seconds with the Centris.
I am sorry but apple is all cheery about iPods etc. That's like microsoft getting all joyful when they have a top selling router.
It's like the lousy baseball player who gets pity compassion from the crowd. You know he can't play, so you are happy to see him get hit by the ball and take first base.
