Even though his mind is clouded by the pretty lights on his "complimentary" Apple Cinema display, he was very clever in starting a skirmish in the never-ending Apple vs PC debate. Someone can correct me, but I don't recall any of his articles generating so many comments.
I just got a big reminder of why I don't like Apple anymore (used to). I went to their site to research the new iTouch, which actually looks pretty cool. There was video of course, but it quickly turned into an iTunes commercial with a long boring diatribe on exactly how to buy music. So I thought I would fast forward through that. I could not. No fast forward. I had to watch. Steve says! Okay, so I will just turn down the sound. No volume control either. Then it froze. Isn't that impossible or something? Oh sorry, must have been my PC.
That experience brought back all those wasted hours on my iBook, you know the one with the faulty logic boards... doing it "different", which in applespeak means one way, their way, with a one button mouse. Steve says.
