not that its any point of data, but yea I have a 40 meg scsi maxtor still running in my old mac and in my entire life of seagates, maxtors, connors, and fujutisu's I only had one seagate fail (500 gig)
on the other hand, every single WD I have bought has died within a year or two, from 120 meg to 160 gig, and while they may have some really nice server grade stuff, their consumer or even power user stuff is absolute garbage.
oh Ill take that back I have a 2 gig WD scsi drive, still alive, day I bought it, it was loud and slow, its not getting any quieter, its so loud, even for a old scsi drive, I dont even want to use it, so maybe that is why its not shit itself yet
since were comparing the entire apple product line to one of microsofts, I think its only fair to toss in the second most popular MS product line out there and see how those numbers add up
so your offering to provide 50$ worth of ram and paid for windows licensees for every workstation entire companies, just so they can run the same fucking visual basic program and outlook they have been for over a decade
thats nice of you
see its a huge cost to companies with no rewards, you have to upgrade hardware, software liscences, rewrite your entire infrastructure and what do you get for it? a fucking live tile for facebook and netflix
why
cause microsoft didnt think that far ahead in their change everything jizzfest
I was in a hurry, that is why I checked from newegg, they left them out, I sent an email, no response, 3 months later a china box shows up with 2 vga cables in it
that order was a handfull of accessories totaling almost a grand (know how many USB hubs and wifi cards that is) and the vga cables were "eh while I am here grab them"
if newegg stopped trying to be a ghetto amazon so I dont have to waste time filtering down to just newegg. But it doesnt matter, the last 3 orders I have bought from them were screwed up, and it took nearly 3 months to get some VGA cables, so fuck-em anyway I dont have the time or patience for their crap anymore
not only does it cost more, it doesnt last as long
you can stock up on preprocessed crap that will last years vs fresh organic stuff that rots in 3 days even in a fridge
the few months I was unemployed but made too much for food stamps on my sub minimum wage unemployment, do you think I bought 5$ bags of spinich that would not last a week or 50 cent cans of soup, some of which are still perfectly good now 4 years later?
what the hell do you buy at target, overprice old canned goods, or shitty paper storage cubes, I have not found much of value at target even when they were not retarded
for fucks sake it took nearly 10 min to get a half warm shitty ass hot dog on a rock hard stale bun
in 100 years no one bothered to check the dark room of "famous explorer" Robert Falcon Scott's fucking hut, and yet we are suprised to find negatives in said darkroom?
when will their own website notice that 07676 is the Township of Washington in NJ
cause when I sent shit there this summer the website said invalid and I had to take it to the post office only to get screwed another 4 bucks for some drooling flunky to print a label
I own a 2006 (during their rennesance of making "quality" cars) kia, its a worthless pile of shit, at only 60k miles with regular scheduled maintenance it runs worse than the Ford I used to have with 197k miles on it. Its been in the shop 4 times in the last year over the same thing, that replacement parts magically dont fix, causing it to backfire (which btw is not covered by their worthless warranty) .
At 20k its coil packs went out leaving me an hour from the dealership with 2 operational cylinders, the stupid ventilation fan stopped working at 30 something thousand miles, unless you kick the glove box. The engine ticks, and the timing belt needs to be replaced.
If Kia is in your list of things not to mock then friend your arument is lost on me.
wow for the same price as upgrading a pile of shit you could have an ok i3 laptop with 4 gigs of ram, better screen, bout the same battery life and a free copy of windows to ditch on the next moron that needs one

I use winamp for two things, mod music and shoutcast
mod music cause open MPT is a decent editor, but I sometimes just want a player, shoutcast cause their web player is junk and crashes all the time
both cause I like the graphic EQ

even stupid people can find better jobs than part time taco bell at age 40
frankly, its not my fault they are stupid

cept this man is being given fish
why is your government provided grocery budget larger than mine and I have to fucking pay yours as well as mine?
our company produces multiple millions of units of product a year, taking way more information per unit than a credit card transaction
in the 3 years I have been there we have generated 20 gig-bytes of pure plain ascii text
get a clue
what the hell do you buy at target, overprice old canned goods, or shitty paper storage cubes, I have not found much of value at target even when they were not retarded
for fucks sake it took nearly 10 min to get a half warm shitty ass hot dog on a rock hard stale bun
incompetent on every single level
no just the risk of loosing cash on the way to or from the car with no chance in hell of ever getting it back
Bunch of shit I dont want, one thing I do want they dont have, simple things like brasso
anyway, I bought 1 thing from target cause the reviews were high and it was the only place I could get it local, now I am tied up in this mess
between those two its going to be a cold day in hell before I step foot back in that store
ps where is this free credit monitoring they offered me almost 3 weeks ago?
Its more of a prediction, that has mostly been on target cause of its challenging nature
its cause it sounds similar to biblical so it must mean the same thing
or going to a 2.3million dollar library
while google is jacking istelf over a robby clone, real robots have been doing meaningful work for nearly a half century
in 100 years no one bothered to check the dark room of "famous explorer" Robert Falcon Scott's fucking hut, and yet we are suprised to find negatives in said darkroom?

I can tell the difference, even in their cases, the iphones are absolutely tiny
I did, it was stated directly out of 2004 kiddo
