I agreed. I think most people moaning have no experience with it to see it's no different from any other software source and includes everything from closed commercial software to GPL'ed software. It isn't that different from a package manager other than obviously Apple would probably prefer things were sold for a cost so they get a cut and it's not that new of an idea. Google had its web apps shop which will no doubt be a central source for ChromeOS software. and even MS is jumping on board and will have an app store.
Of course if Apple (or anyone else) attempted to make it the only source of software for an OS then yeah that would be bad but I don't think that will happen. It does make a little sense on a phone but on a computer it doesn't just for the fact that Apple wants macs are the platforms Apple wants people to use for development for Mac / iOS apps and web development. It would require quite a bit of effort to regulate for a small portion of users but even if it is a small portion of customers it's still a very important set.
Apple is just doing really well at the moment which will breed moronic haters and fanboys.
Where's the truth? The Mac store has GPL'ed apps, apps that download code and just about everything the iOS one doesn't have yet on numerous occasions people claim it's exactly the same. Or the claims in here that they removed the console login when that's easy to prove complete wrong. Likewise the claim that Tiger was better than Snow Leopard based on his experience while at the same time saying I can't prove anything based on my experience is hypocritical troll rubbish.
But hey if owning a superior laptop (Macbook pro) and it being my only Apple product our of 5 computers and my Android phone makes me a fanboy then go ahead and talk shit if that's what makes your sad little life better.
Sorry but I say you're full of shit. I have snow leopard and have had zero problems. No one at work has ever had any problems aside from one guy that caused it not to start it but that was due to shitty 3G dongle software. disabling that on start-up fixed it. Linux has equally be good to me. The only one that runs like a sluggish pig and crashes is XP and all three operating systems are used for the same sort of things (development). Stating that you use OS X for pro audio says nothing other than imply you use it less than the others.
I use mine for everything. Browsing, building os projects, development (web and C), Steam / gaming, music, movies, etc. I even have Linux ports that are supposedly buggy, like GIMP, and have had zero problems.
Probably because you're a big gay. I own multiple brands of computers along with my own built ones and never had such shit luck. That including owning a Packard Bell computer that quite likely had used parts in it since it was before they got caught out for that.
Only two computers ever had failed parts, both times it was a modem that got hit by lighting. Everything else survived like a boss. Computer parts are exceptionally reliable unless you abuse them.
Nothing like a KDE user dissing someone else when his GUI of choice is a windows knock-off. Choosing KDE is like modelling your sex life after the sex life of a mongoloid.
The OS X app store is nothing like the iphone app store and can't be if they want developers. But go a head and spout shit all your want if it makes you feel better for owning a shitty dell.
We'll need clones cheap and quickly to run the station. I bet he hasn't thought of that. We're no where near efficient on cloning people. It's doomed from the beginning.
I believe McCain wants to be president more than anything. After all this is a guy that threatened to switch to the democratic party, imo, just try and gain some relevance.
While those examples are fine the problem is it takes a lot more to be president than just talking to the media. The idea that Obama could get the whole way through the process get elected president and not having every single republican at his door with torches if he weren't born here is ridiculous. There would be so much to gain for republicans and for any media outlet to prove he's not a citizen. Of course the average tea party member is a complete retard so that doesn't cross their mind.

I'm not saying you should be bothered at your desk or even that you should have to eat with your co-workers all the time. But if you don't have at least one co-worker you don't want to socialise with for at least 30 minutes in a week then I'd consider a new job. I enjoy eating at my desk too and writing code or looking at slashdot / reddit but I'd hate to think I was surrounded by people I never wanted to talk to. There is more to my life than code even if I do it at my job and at home. Sometimes it's good to have a break from it in some way other than sleeping and, god forbid, have some occasional human interaction.
The Ipad is more competitively priced, has access to a better marketplace (in terms of content) and looks nice. About the only place an Android tablet may compete is on price but even then it won't be by as much as Android phones vs iphone.
Tablets aren't big enough for everyone including trailer trash to be wanting one so consumer standards are still higher. Plus with smart phones you had about a zillion android phones of varying prices against one 1 iphone. That's not the case with tablets.
Or you could make friends at work enjoy your time there and go out after work to have fun as well. Seems like there are quite a few people in here that would be miserable cunts to work with.
The FBI probably isn't good enough to beat cyber attacks so they go for the low hanging fruit and spend most of their resources on catching pedophiles.

In other words you want to say something fucking stupid with no way to back it up.
It still works. Maybe you should actually use OS X rather than relying on unintelligent windows fanboy rants you find via google.
If you genuinely went through 4 motherboards in just over a year then it sounds like the computer was being treated like shit by its mongo owner.

Then it can run like shit like a windows desktop with the added bonus of a shortened battery life.

Have you seen the quality of stories / writing that comes out of games? Publishers aren't exactly capable of filtering out shit.
