  1. Sophisticated and active? on Politicians Catch on to Blogging · · Score: 1

    Which population is he talking about? Surely not the American one which actively voted in an unsophisticated monkey such as George Bush. He gives you hicks and backwoodsmen more credit than you deserve,

    Shhh! Please don't challenge the mac users here.

  3. In the real world on The World's First Banner Ad · · Score: 1

    If you reused another persons advert from 10 years ago, what would the implication be? This just got me thinking about old adverts being recycled by other companies.

    I know about it but don't use it because I'm not prepared to hunt down another application in order to use it. I also didn't upgrade my mac to tiger just to use Safari RSS.

    How does the DVD player auto start then when a DVD movie is put in the disc drive?

  9. Re:There's another, more interesting aspect of thi on Apple Files Patent for "Tamper-Resistant Code" · · Score: 1

    You forget the technologies inside OSX which seem to make it a dream for developers to code for. You only have to look at Aperture and see that a program like that isn't coming out on windows for anytime soon.

  10. Re:OS X on commodity hardware on Apple Files Patent for "Tamper-Resistant Code" · · Score: 1

    Why don't you go to the Apple store and check out one of the macs. Simple.

  12. Re:Michael Dell shut down Dells Rep by outsourcing on Apple - What A Difference Eight Years Can Make · · Score: 1

    Apple have off shored some of their tech support as well you know? Buying higher priced computers hasn't stopped them from doing the same with cutting costs.

  18. Re:silliness on iPod Nano Scratches Result In Suit · · Score: 1

    The nano tubes don't protect the screen funnily enough, I should know, I bought a pack and then pissed myself over the irony of it.

  19. Re:Nanos Scartch Easily on iPod Nano Scratches Result In Suit · · Score: 1

    I concur, after only a few days in my pocket (with nothing in it), it had scratches, annoying really when I still had my mini (going on 6 months now) and it was in mint condition and its been dropped a few times and been hit against keys and all sorts. Something is definately different with the nano. However, I asked for a refund and got it (with the grace period) but not before I got told to buy the cases 3 times by 3 different people while on the phone with Apple. Which I have done and now they have come, they protect everything except the fucking screen! I bought a second nano and kept the plastic wrap on it and shoved it in a case before the air scratched its screen. NOW I'M HAPPY!

  20. Re:128x128 on Network TV Downloadable Via iTunes · · Score: 1

    You need to keep in mind that a lot of people will watch this stuff on computer monitors and they won't buy the extra equipment from Apple in order to plug it into the TV. Its a fair point to bitch about.

  21. Re:Portable TV never worked and never will on Network TV Downloadable Via iTunes · · Score: 2, Informative

    I downloaded one of the Pixar shorts and on my 12" iBook, i thought the picture quality was shit and it wasn't even full screen. I'd rather download pirated content simply because the quality is better, i'm not touching anything from itunes (video content) until they at least double the resolution. Oh and allow CD burning, fire the dipshit who allowed that.

  24. Re:The iPhoto Experience on Why Do-It-Yourself Photo Printing Doesn't Add Up · · Score: 1

    I found iPhoto really lacking in options and they weren't the cheapest around. I tested their service with photobox.net and they offered next day delivery (as standard if ordering before 4pm), cheaper delivery prices and a larger amount of print sizes, matt or gloss finish and they gave me free prints. iPhoto sucks compared to them. I got photos from iPhoto which were cropped or the colours weren't exactly what I wanted, certain colours were off. Photobox even offers you to print to canvas or other material items. iPhoto is just convienent thats all.
