Take your ass grease pills and put your helmet on
Ground Control to Yoda Doll
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God's love shove up you Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Shove Up

You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose butts you tear
Now it's time to leave the suppository if you dare
"This is Yoda Doll to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm stinking in a most peculiar way
And the ass look very different today
For here am I sitting in an ass can
Far inside the butt
My face is turning blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past one hundred thousand bowels
I'm feeling very still
And I think my buttship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I ream her very much, she knows"

Macs suck

Macs are expensive and for elitists. Yeah this Mac Mini is for elitists too.. for the same money you can get a better system from dell or wlamart (although much larger in size). Also, I like the new napster.. it's waay better than itunes. It's cheaper and I dont gotta pay 99 cents per song. That's retarded.
Are people that stupid?

The assumption that the Mini will steal a significant number of users strikes me as odd. It has very few advantages over a Wintel box at the same price - in fact the same money buys you a lot of power in a Windows machine.
Then again, iPods are overpriced and under-featured and seem to have caught the public interest - so maybe people really are as stupid as Apple thinks they are.

The mac mass mutual fellatio... honestly you have to hand it to Jobs, he found a button that you only had to press once, and the suckers would spit money at him ad infinitum and ad nauseum. He found the kids who really, really wanted to belong in one of those "clique clubs" in school, the shy retiring ones, not so much nerds because they really didn't give a damn about computers, and he gave them a shiny new group you could just pay to join! No need to be hip, or know the latest catchphrase, we'll supply that for you!:D:D:D
And wait wait, get this, hold on, once you set up two of em, are ya ready for it, hehahah, once you set up two of them, they will feed on one another, with orgasmic cries of "I am validated!", and even better, they will evangelise and sell your product for you! Because its no good having an exclusive club unless people want to join!
Reeee-fuckin markable. Wish I'd thought of it first.

Dear Apple

Dear Apple,
I am a homosexual. I bought an Apple computer because
of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have
become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay
friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such
as myself.
I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice
and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would
be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal
to young boys. Thanks in advance.
with much
gayness,
Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day, S.J.

Dear Father O'Day,
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!

A.) It may be cheap and sexy, but it's hard to find apps for. Best Buy, for example, carries no Mac software.
B.) No Games. Sorry.
C.) Regardless of the low price, Apple has a huge hurdle to overcome with the general masses that they won't be missing out if they get it.
Microsoft has little to fear from Apple or Linux right now.

That explains it. I mean, sure, it's *possible* that some people will switch to Mac because of the Mini, but assuming that enough people will do so to change the shape of the market? Holy shit. Wasn't the Mac II supposed to do the same thing? And that one that looks like a fucking lamp? Whatever. I'm sure I'll get a billion angry replies to this post, but I don't care.

Is there Monitors... Sure I know that the whole point of the Mini is to connect to your existing monitor. But right now, I'm in the market to buy an entire set-up (as my current 20" CRT is dying). I don't really want to do the iMac, as it prohibits significant future updates... and their cheapest LCD costs 900 bucks!
So do I want a Mac? Yes.
I've been Wintel for the past 20 years, but forced my department to get me a dual 2-gig G5... I've been using it for the past year, and love it.
Will I buy the Mac? Still Unsure. I know I can get whatever LCD I want, but part of the whole Mac experience is to have a computer that doesn't look like ass...
So Steve, why the crap don't you sell a reasonably priced 17" LCD?
