    oh and btw please list an mp3 player that mattered before the ipod? apple didn't event the mp3 player but they sure made it matter. Improving upon existing technology is not the end of the world. Most of the standards that I enjoy and take for granted today were pushed by apple products ( USB,bluetooth,firewire etc.) What are these other computer companies that are pushing the envelope and inventing in contrast to apples stagnacy that you speak of?

    No necessity is the mother of invention. I am not interested in rehashing pirates of the silicon valley. You idealize apple what apple was in comparison to what they are now. Bottom line apple is a business and their goal is to make money. Currently in my opinion they provide a superior operating system compared to microsoft, and a superior computing experience. That is what is important to me. "No question, people are tired of it, the thunder of innovation is gone, the collective hands of a money making machine is in full swing." hug many trees?

    Discontent with apples vision? obviously atleast one employee out of thousands worldwide is not as altruistic as you when it comes to being offered money! Not every person in the computer industry gives a rats ass about so called vision. I'd venture a guess and say you haven't been to 1 infinite loop. Apple is a great company and a greater company to work for. Care to outline what apple is duplicating to be successful?

  11. Re:33 minutes on New Battlestar Galactica Series Starts Tonight · · Score: 0

    no wonder you don't like the show it insulted your lack intelligence. You obviously didn't pay attention at all to the first episode or the pilot. They didn't have enough crew and who the hell sleeps while being attacked? Try paying attention. Jumping at a different time wouldn't change a thing as they cylons where tracking them and it took them 33 minutes to catch up. They had a homing beacon on one of the ships. Hey but atleast you know what you are talking about! The reason it doesn't add up for you is because you can't add.

    Right and I was willing to pay more for what I consider a superior product. Still I was refuting his statement that people are pleasantly surprised by apples pricing? clearly they are not what is your point?

    Don't get me wrong I'm writing this proudly from a G5. But Not many ppl get pleasantly surprised when they see apple's prices.
