    The only problem with Apple is that I lust after them.

    Now, my 40GB iPod is obsolete! I must have the yellow one.

    Iran & Iraq should change their country names in iRan & iRaq to get more leading headlines.

    I know its off topic, but damn... Steve's got some sweet glasses. I wonder where a guy gets a pair like that. Those are. by far. the coolest glasses I've seen. /four-eyes since six years old

      Before you get some cool glasses, how about getting some commas? Here's a bunch for you, for free. Cut and paste as needed.

    Yes, and I think Apple have lost sales to all the other unemployed, Linux using, Ogg Vorbis fans. That's 14 sales lost right there! ;-)

    A reality distortion field strength of 1.0 Jobs can be hazardous to your health. However, experts disagree on the long-term effects or danger from background micro- or pico-Jobs fields.

    I agree. I've felt the same way about OpenOffice. I've got a dictionary sitting above my desk. Why should I have to load up a bunch of well-designed software to do what I want to get done? My computer should be able figure out what words I want and arrange them for me automatically.

    Don't even get me started on the spreadsheet...

    Iran & Iraq should change their country names in iRan & iRaq to get more leading headlines.

    Do iRan and iRaq give you portable audio? Can you plug them into your PC? Do they have sleek designs? Are they kind-of status symbols? Last time I checked they lacked all of that. No wonder people are more interested in the iPod.

    Yes, the newer iPods are curvier and sexier because of it, but the ergonomics of the touch buttons is TERRIBLE.

    Writing as someone who uses his iPod in the dock 99% of the time, I like the 3g touch buttons much more than the 1g hard buttons. I don't have to put my hand behind the iPod to push a button and having the click sound on gives me all the feedback I need.

    Why can't we have an iPod with sexy curves and tactile buttons?

    I think you're confusing iPods with Jeri Ryan :-).

    Steve's customary self-satisfied guru act is one thing. We can handle that. But what's up with this new look--jaw set, brow knit, eyes flaring wildly, carefully untended stubble shadowing a creepy sidelong glance?

    It looks like a public service announcement: "Kids, don't get into the car with a stranger who offers you an iPod."

    That thing looks like an iPod in the same way that Rosie O'Donnell looks like Jennifer Garner. :)

    But, as long as it does what you need it to do, who cares really?
