Posted by samzenpus on from the it-sounded-like-a-good-idea-at-the-time dept.

PetManimal writes "Whatever happened to Digital Audio Tape? Or Circuit City's DIVX program? Or IBM's PCjr. and the PS/1? Computerworld's list of 21 biggest tech flops is an amusing trip down the memory lane of tech failures. Some are obvious (Apple Newton), while others are obscure (Warner Communications' QUBE). Strangely, Y2K didn't make the list."

  4. You're not cool enough to use a Mac by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    It's obvious that the reason you hate Macs so much is because you know that they're too cool for you. And that you're not intelligent enough to be allowed to use one. And, well, let's face it... you're too poor to have one.

    Oh, and Steve Jobs hates you.
