    The most knowledgeable person in the world could also be the biggest idiotic moron.

    "To me, going to the health club, you see all these people and they're working out, and they're training and they're getting in shape but the
    strange thing is nobody is really getting in shape for anything. The only reason that you're getting in shape is that so you can get through the
    workout. So we're working out, so that we'll be in shape, for when we have to do our exercise. This is the whole thing." - Seinfeld

    If the dumb are rich and the smart are poor, why aren't the smart acting dumb to get rich? Are they too dumb to do that? And if they are dumb, then how come they're not rich?

    I have a headache now, thanks to you.

  6. Re:eh, Iphone is lame anyways on AT&T Sues Verizon Over "Map For That" Ads · · Score: 1

    Apple is still a business. And I think they don't want to make the same mistake Coke did decades ago, with their "Coke vs Pepsi" marketing. A lot of people didn't even know about Pepsi, so Coke in effect paid for Pepsi ads and let the world know that Pepsi was a possible alternative to Coke.

    Microsoft Windows, on the other hand, is already known. And Apple surely won't talk about other alternatives such as Linux, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris or whatever in their ads, that would be counter-intuitive for them. Especially since people can simply download those for free and install them on their current PC.

    IE7 and IE8 still need tweaks. Cleaner and less complicated tweaks, but tweaks nonetheless.
