I think when my ipod inevitably dies on me I'll give the Zune player a try. That song sharing function is no different than itunes sharing function. If anything itunes is worse than Zune. If you share your itunes playlist over a network, you can listen to the music on itunes as long as the other persons copy of itunes is running, when they shut it down you can't access thier list any more. You can't even load their songs onto your ipod when their playlist is available.
I love Sony!! a truck carrying a bunch of Sony DVD players ran me over and the driver got out and shot me in the leg just to make sure I was hurt, then he rubbed sewage in the wound and threw me into a ravine and left me for dead.
P.S. I'm boycotting reading your posts
There's a BIG difference between the Oklahoma bombers and the Islamic terrorists. Mainly that the Oklahoma bombers weren't part of a global netork of maniacs blowing up buildings and trains all over the world, for a common evil purpose.
All this shit about having papers is due to political correctness. God forbid anybody would call it 'Islamic Terrorism' and just target.. the Islamists.. Oh well, this is the price you pay for living in a liberal society.
They're living in a fantasy land. They claim their computers are built for doing creative things, but then the computer animation industry is run on PC's. Photoshop benchmarks better on PC's now since apple switched over to the intel chips. And that whole dillusion about being ready right out of the box is crap. My macbook spent 2 hours just doing updates the first time I turned it on. Then their big red computers and ipod cash grab for AIDS campaign is just offensive. So if I buy a red computer for $1500 they'll give $5 to the world AIDS foundation... Whereas Bill Gates is giving billions of dollars he got from his inferior and fundimentally evil products to AIDS research right out of his own pocket.
That's why Apple needs to sober up.
God almighty. I'm glad they pulled the plug on that 40 mile an hour piece of crap!
I hate the Halo series. It's unoriginal, it's bland, it total garbage. It gives me a good feeling to know how many idiots this is going to piss off.
While the Warhammer folks have every right to use their medieval Warhammer stuff they should have realised that it's way way WAY too similar to Warhammer to be considered original, even though Warcraft is ripping off Warhammer. It would have been better if the Warhammer folks made a Warhammer 40K game.
There's absolutely no originality in the games industry.
Europe's on this stint of mentally retarded liberalism these days. God forbid anybody should be offended by somebody elses opinions these days. Do you think the 'regulation' is going to curb those bloody islamists posting videos of people getting their heads chopped off in the name of god? Mind you it's part of their culture and all cultures are euqal no matter what horrific values they may embrace. I guess in the views of the European Union this qualifies as hate speech.
It's not really acceptable to just say 'hey, go out and buy some antivirus software because the products we sell have viruses'. If I buy a bloody ipod it shouldn't ruin my computer. Though I imagine they have some legal agreement stating that I can't sue for lost data if my ipod destroys my computer...
See, up here in Canada we have an unusual legal system, it's quite different from that of the States. Basically cases like this don't make it to trial, our judges do what is called 'throwing out' a case. It's an unusual concept I know, but it works in keeping things like that RIAA fiasco from happening. Our judges know that politicians are the ones who have the power to make these big deciscions, not some morally upright jackfuck. SO... they don't deal with that shit.
Until they develop a device where you can remotely punch somebody in the face over the internet, people are gonna continue to say whatever they want. Even then the remote punching system would wind up being abused. Since anybody who voices their opinion would wind up being punched by somebody else. The only way to avoid a scenario like that is to charge money for the punches, so if you want to hit somebody you have to mean it, maybe $20 a punch. But then you have to factor in things like potential injuries caused to whoever you punched, since they could be drinking some coffee or something and get scalded when they get slugged. Then also if the person has asteoperosis [sic] or is a hemophiliac, there's a chance of death with the system. I suppose in that case one could argue that they'd better keep a civil tounge in their head. But things don't work like that. It's an interesting prospect none the less.
Thanks for the awareness? How come there's no breast cancer prevention month? Wouldn't an attempt to educate people on how to spot the disease early on and get it properly treated be a better use of resources than some stupid pink theme? It's always walk for a cure, or some other crap like that. They NEVER talk about preventing breast cancer. They use mammograms for that. But with the way things are now you'd think you could stop breast cancer with a big smile and a long walk.
Man you're just jealous that I hit the nail on the head. Maybe if you didn't use your computer for whatever the hell you use your computer for you'd understand.
Jeah, if I did that then I wouldn't be able to tell which programs I'm running, thanks to the icons. Once again the smug apple company sob's refuse to accept the reality of the written word.
I'd expect that sort of answer form an ignorant mac only user. Myself being versed both in Mac and Pc platforms I can scoff at your claims.
And if you say you've used windows I'll know you're lieng, because I have opensource lie detection software running on my PC right now.
I'm not too pleased with the idea that Vista's gonna need to allocate processing power from my video card just to render the bloody GUI, especially since the reason I bought a high end 3D card is to run Maya, not my start menu. I don't care about stupid flashy GUI novelty crap. The windows XP system is about as good as it can get.
I also recently got a Mac. OS X's GUI absolutely no different than the Windows GUI except that they feel the need to take up more screen real estate with big fancy icons, whereas they could have just written the name of the programs currently running. Or is it that the Apple folks somehow think their users are incapable or reading (that'd explain simpletext)
I'm Canadian. I don't know these people you speak of.
Here's the thing. Canada isn't in the Iraq war yet muslim extremists are still tyring to behead our prime-minister and blow up our stock exchange. These people who're commiting this treason were born and raised in Canada, and are from upper class homes. They've been given all the benifits our society has to offer, they have free health care and good education and the freedom to force their wives to cover their faces in public. YET THEY'RE STILL TYRING TO KILL US!
One would think that lower class inner city youths would have more reason to blow up subway stations than some upper class muslim law students.
Britain is getting hit because they've been allowing the muslim extremists to do whatever they want without restrictions. It finally came back to bite them in the ass.

What kind of retard cares that much about the specs of a computer?!
I tell you I'm starting to agree with Macleans.

The games media is so biased it's sickening. You can't even call what these smucks do journalism.

I own both a mac and a PC. They even sit on the same desk. I'm touching the mac right now...

This boondoggle might be the sort of thing apple needs to sober them up.

Warcraft is actually a rip-off of Warhammer. Warhammer's been around for decades.

I think North Korea has the right idea with the nuclear weapons program.

That's political correctness for you. The authorities would be slammed if they only stopped and searched middle eastern people.
