  1. Re:XBox 360 on Mac mini, Apple DVR? · · Score: 0

    Really? I hear the 360 crashes left and right. Guess they better get that fixed before they even attempt to take on the iPod/iTMS

    Besides, how many people actually believe that MS is capable of delivering anything near as good as the iPod/iTMS experience?

  2. Re:DVDs on Just Say No to Microsoft · · Score: 0

    Wow. You actually NEED Internet Explorer?! What the hell for?

  3. Re:Lossless Tracks for $1.29 - MusicGiants on The Real Reason Behind iTMS Tiered Pricing · · Score: -1
    Yeah, and how large are these files? Obviously, you've missed the entire point of iTMS/iPod simplicty. So, in order to fit a large number these lossless files on an average iPod, you will first need to convert them to a reasonable size. So, now your hard drive is filled up with huge audio files and smaller sized duplicates. Brilliant thinking. You must work for these MusicGiant clowns.

    Or, alternatively, I can load only 120 lossless tunes into my 4GB iPod nano. Wow, 120 songs in my pocket! Whoop dee f**kin' doo.

    Besides, the iTMS tunes don't sound "muddy". Maybe you should get your hearing checked. Apparently, listening to Britney Spears all day long has damaged your eardrums.

    "Maybe you have had major problems getting PCs working before you bought your Mac, but I can assure you that when you buy a reasonable PC today, those problems no longer exist."

    Yeah, right! What a crock!

  5. Get real on Intel Mac OS X Catches Up With Older Brother · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    What a bunch of cheapa** whiny motherf**kers. If you want the Mac experience, buy the damn hardware. Otherwise, shut-up and be content in your half-baked Linux and/or patchwork Windows worlds.

  6. Re:American Porn Industry on No Porn for You, iPod · · Score: 1

    Ditto that. This is a strange country we live in. I find it disturbing that nobody seems nearly as upset by all of the violent imagery that children are subjected to. It's pretty sad, really.

  7. Re:Linux killed OSX. on Windows Vista Build 5231 Review · · Score: 1

    This is, without doubt, one of the most idiotic posts I have ever read.

  8. Re:More Trash From the Fisher-Price-GUI Developers on Windows Vista Build 5231 Review · · Score: 1

    "95% of the changes to Vista are largely behind the scenes."

    What? You mean they're adding even more holes to their already perforated OS?

  9. To answer a question... on ABC Affiliates Grapple With TV-Show Downloads · · Score: 1

    Apple downloads are commercial-free. At least that's what Steve said during his announcement.

  10. Wrong! on No Video iPod Coming? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Obviously, ThinkSecret is wrong.

  11. Re:If You Watch ANY Porn, You ARE a Deviant on FBI Agents Put New Focus on Deviant Porn · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Those that deny their curiosity about porn have bigger issues.

  12. Re:Vista "look and feel" for OSX on MS Vista Look and Feel To Go Cross-Platform · · Score: 0

    Then why upgrade at all?

  13. Re:Mac guys, this is your cue! on Bulky System Requirements for Windows Vista · · Score: 0

    Yep. Macs can do this already at a much lower memory requirement.

  14. Re:Yep on Is It Wrong to Love Microsoft? · · Score: 0
    "Macs just suck in my opinion, I don't care about eye candy so much and to me that is all the mac represents."

    This statement proves that the rest of your comment isn't worthy of anybody's time. Keep it to yourself.

  15. Re:DeliMonster and other examples on Windows Software Ugly, Boring & Uninspired · · Score: 0

    Delicious Library is a fantastic application! There is absolutely nothing like in on the Windows side of things.

  16. Re:Whence AppleWorks? on Apple Making a Spreadsheet? · · Score: 0

    So, I suppose that you're king of strategies.

  17. No guarantees on Steve Jobs In Praise of Dropping Out · · Score: 0

    Having a degree is no guarantee of success. Of course, most people can't even define success. Honestly, the vast majority of "degreed" people I know are dumber than door nails. My guess is that that "piece of paper" is the only reason that they've gotten as far as they have in this life. So, I can see how it may be a necessity for THEM.

  18. Re:Irrelevant in the U.S. on Nokia Develops a New Browser on Apple WebKit · · Score: 0

    You know what's retarded? Spending that kind of cash for a freakin' phone, that's what.

  19. Re:Enough already... you're all wrong! on Cringley Thinks Apple & Intel Are Merging · · Score: 0

    It doesn't lack apps.

  20. Re:What do do about Altivec? GPU? on Apple Switching to Intel · · Score: 0

    Don't you think that Apple already has this figured out?

  21. Re:lame clone on Intel Preps Mac mini Look-Alike · · Score: 0

    Right on! The whole idea of the mini is to give people a cheap alternative to Wintel. So, how the hell is this new Intel machine going to compete since it won't run OS X?

    "This isn't meant to be a troll..."

    Who are you trying to fool? Of course it's a troll.

    What's wrong with bashing MS. They deserve it. And the idiots who defend them shouldn't fair much better.

  24. Re:UI Complainers on Microsoft Demands Removal Of Longhorn Images · · Score: 0

    Yeah! Keep telling that to yourself. If there exists a better UI to Longhorn, images of it would have made it to the Internet by now.

  25. Re:CITIZENS determine what "rights" MEAN on French Courts Ban DRM on DVDs · · Score: 0

    "Not if the people (acting through their govt) decide otherwise. Corporations have EXACTLY whatever rights WE CITIZENS decide to give them. THEIR rights are determined by US. If the French govt contrains corporate rights, then it is because the fRench PEOPLE want it that way. You see, teh American propaganda has warped your perspective. A country is supposed to be "by the people and FOR the people' not by and for the corporations. See how that works? So how do we get America headed in that direction? How about trying our politicians for treason?"

    Nice try! However, your argument is complete and utter bulls**t!

    If you don't like the terms, don't buy the product. You're perfectly welcome to go out and spend your own money to start a competing industry with purchasing rules that you see fit.

    Then we can see how much you like it when some two-bit pirate cuts into YOUR profit by giving away YOUR product for next to nothing.
