'Whinging' is an entirely different word to 'whining', however they both mean the same thing. Perhaps one is more colloquial than the other, I don't know. Google "whinge vs whine" if you must.
Oh, come on! They're not trying to kill you, they're just walking around aimlessly from right to left and sometimes back again. It's not their fault that they have the touch of death.

Sorry, but just because he was the first to make these developments does not mean no one else would have in his absence... I mean come on, you REALLY think we wouldn't have monospaced fonts? You don't think that some other designer or even another typography student couldn't muster up the vision of applying it to the computer world? Give me a break. I'm all for Apple products and certainly believe he was an extremely important figure in the computing world (rivaled by very few), but no way is he the only person in the last 20+ years capable of envisioning everything you've just mentioned. He just happened to do it first.

I wouldn't say disrespectful so much, but I know what you mean. Whenever I read about someone being "found dead" it usually relates to a drug overdose or foul play...
Nope, chord progressions aren't protected by copyright- only melody and lyrics are. If you want to get technical, I believe it only takes 5 bars to infringe... Someone may be able to correct me on that though.
Maybe read my post again. I never said anyone was socially retarded for wanting to protect their privacy. Everyone should have that right. I was merely stating that passing judgement on someone simply for using a piece of technology you don't happen to agree with is hardly fair and yes, socially retarded. It's basically on par with predetermining someones personality through astrology and deciding you won't get a long with them because your star signs aren't compatible.
Sorry, but how does using one of the most popular websites in the world make someone "non-individual cattle"? I bet you use Google, right? Does that make you cattle as well? Get off it.
As far as I'm concerned, everyone who has a problem with Facebook and feels the need to post time and time again about how much smarter they are than 700+ million people because they don't use it should grow the fuck up. Just because it goes against your moral code (and you're obviously too fucking paranoid) doesn't make you any better. Sure, Facebook takes peoples information, but it provides an otherwise free service. You know why those girls use Facebook, buddy? It's because it's popular, easy and it works. It's not because they've been brainwashed and aren't able to make their own choices.
Also, if you're judging people and pigeonholing them because of a WEBSITE they use, then you're obviously more socially retarded than you think.

. . . and send iPad2 customers an optional coupon to exchange their purchased iPad2 during that time for a Galaxy tab, at Apple's expense.
Has this kind of punishment ever been handed out?
Is Google Music meant to be cheaper than iTunes? Regardless, as a fellow Australian, I share your concerns.

. . . but actually pretty fun.
Haha, no it's not.
You say "sad" a lot :(
Are they at least going to do something cool with it?
Unless that "hassle" is simply someone from Apple calling him up and asking if he wants one. Or in this case two.
What on earth makes you think he paid for them? He co-founded the company... as if he doesn't get any Apple product he wants for free.
You'd be surprised how many 30+ year old's use it. If anything, they'll be the more ignorant internet users.
They're even sold in some super markets in Australia.
Maybe you're running Chrome OS...

Thanks, I just lost The Game.
Too good.

Okay, I kid...

No dice.
Or that by the time this company actually starts harassing Bittorrent users it will be summer... but who cares, right?
Yes.
