    Buddy, I think you may be very wrong on that point.

    Data to support or disprove point #3 is in fact linked in the article. Click firefox 1.x or IE 6.x vulnerabilites in the first table. Or Here FF 1.x and Here IE 6.x for you lazy bones.

    Im to lazy to go though it all but by looking at the pretty pie charts the IE bugs are indeed more critical.

    I see this whole issue as just another scare story from the media. As I learned in Microbiology Plaugue is a commom (relatively speaking) occurance in prarie dog colonies in the midwest. See here Its not like it ceased to exist hundreds of years ago and a mad scientist brought it back

    If you see a dead prarie dog, walk fast and hope those fleas dont catch up to you. The same goes for any dead animal, staying around to poke it with a stick is not generally a good idea

    I mean, considering that today there are almost no new electronic devices that dont access the internet. If this were 5 years from now and smart toilets were the norm, he would be screwed.

    I admit to knowing little of Apple, but I dont think they manufacture any of their components either. They are both Software and Brands.

    "Someone missed the article, first thing they did was sit on it on a plain wood chair with no damage"

    Nope, I read the article. The problem is not placing it on the chair then sitting on it. Its when its in a pocket and you sit thats the problem. I can place a pencil fully supported on a flat surface and jump on it a hundred times. Put it in your pocket and sit so it now has to conform to your (not you personally) fat ass, and snap....

    you said:

    "And yes, I fully believe Apple knew what they were doing when they designed it with a non-user-replacable battery. They made a decision of style over product lifespan"

    They very well have made the decision to go with style over function by keeping the case enclosed. I dont beleive it was their intent on making a disposable device. If they did, they would not have made any revisions to improve the situation...........

    It amazes me to no end what ipod users are willing to defend. "Hey, check out my new ipod disposable, its so cool!"
