I also don't see anyone here having any bright ideas about alternatives to the stagnant, "Whoa it's got a faster clock speed" pc market.

Also from the one person who said about the CD trays catching fire... Um is that even possible? I know there is a problem with CD's with labels printed on them getting stuck inside the drive.
Even all the hard ass anti-apple people can't say that the company is atleast trying to innovate. Interesting case designs, shipping an all new OS based on the Mach kernel, etc etc. But for every innovation they make they fuckup a bunch of other things (one button mouse STILL AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, overpriced/underperforming systems to name a few).
I will still stay an Apple fanboy though and laugh at some good ol fashined Mac bashing at The Shack.

Apple always has been and will continue to be an innovator. Where would we be without Apple today? Using metal desktop ATX boxes with no style running DOS. Remember the IBM XTs? Yep, those.
Sure, Apple took a gamble on the avant-garde cube and lost big time, but who here didn't marvel at the sheer engineering genius that was the G4 cube? Granted, I say this from my home built Celery 900 with loads of games and applications, not a Mac.

Have yet more fun bashing Macs.
I wouldn't buy an Apple or even suggest it to anyone, but its always interesting to see what they are doing.

reference to the cracks in the clear casing that Apple denied even after photographic evidence
NOW.
Not to mention the retarded idea of trying to make a PC with no fan at all. WOW THAT WAS A SMART ONE APPLE!
No wonder they canned 'em. They look pretty fucking slick though, I'll give them that.

Fellow shackers, let us give a nelson laugh to these fellows, and then feel some pity. Or vica versa if you're just a bastard.
