Another boring money post

[Partial]

Thanks for the good discussion Zool & Freak. I enjoyed it.

Madtown, you're a complete jackass for allowing this imbecile to ruin your forum.

Ha. My posts were actually extremely well thought out and elegantly put. You're a fucking idiot, guy. I really hope I encounter you again.

You're talking about a product like an expert when you haven't used one. You have an opinion on the topic... and you really shouldn't. That makes you an uninformed fucking moron. Quite possibly the stupidest person on these boards. You're talking about technology that you don't understand at all. You're one cheap and stupid guy. It makes me feel very confident in my future because I have no doubt that my intelligence and mental capacity far exceeds yours.

You're such a cheap mother fucker that you want to use a bottom of the barrel piece of shit instead of something nice when you use the aforementioned device probably 80ish hours a week. I'm surprised you don't drive a moped. That, my friend, makes you an idiot.

Clearly you don't value yourself or your time. I'm quite certain you have issues with basic mathematics as well.

Ha. My posts were actually extremely well thought out and elegantly put........ mathematics as well.

you didn't need to do this. I suggest you delete your post and let Retail fall on his own sword.

Good to know that Windows 7 is iffy as an upgrade. I need to get a new copy of the Adobe Suite and I was thinking of upgrading to Windows 7 while I'm spending money I can't spend yet.

It depends what hardware you have to begin with. I upgraded a Dell Inspiron laptop I had laying around (core 2 duo) and when from Vista to 7 smoothly. I use it as a guest computer for visitors and a music server.

Man....let the good times roll.

Right? LOL!!!!

This have turned into a extremely boring money post.

I know, right?

I quoted this so there is a permanent record. One day, I will make you eat each and every one of these words. Count on it. Your last three posts are so riddled with inaccuracies and unfounded accusations I can't even believe you are this ignorant. You are a spoiled little boy. Watching you grow up is gonna be FUN. I will so enjoy watching life kick your ass. I will remind you each and every time it happens. I will never miss an opportunity. Never.

You would be hard pressed to find anywhere when I weighed in against a macbook (for anything other than mindless sarcasm). Never used one, don't want to. My complaints have been related to the IPOD and the IPAD, places I do have experience. Enough to know I don't like them. My "praise" if you could call it that, is completely third hand. Would it stand up to a market share similar to Windows? No idea, but that's a good test. Too bad they're too stupid to give it a try.

"They're a hardware company". WTF does that even mean? You sell what sells, if you have ANY brains at all. You OWE your shareholders nothing less than that. It is malfeasance and mismanagement to do anything else. If you don't want to do this, then don't become a publicly held company. Once you are, you're justifiably held to that standard.

By any standard but yours, my "stuff" is not cheap, bottom of the barrel stuff, but when you're young and ignorant, that's all you got, so you use it. At the end of the day, I'd rather be a "has been" than a "never will be", which is where you are. All your advice is based on "theory" instead of experience, because you have NONE.

Finally - I'm done with this thread and this discussion. I won't engage with you further on it. So go ahead, make the last post (it would be impossible for you to do otherwise), and let's let this one die. I will bump it at some point in the future, you can count on that, but until Apple screws up, let's let it die a painful death. When Apple crashes, I will throw a party at the "cheap mother fucking" homestead to celebrate. We can swim in my "cheap mother fucking" pool, go for beer in my "cheap mother fucking" car, and play with my "cheap mother fucking" android tablets, while watching my "cheap motherfucking tv's".

Sounds like fun to me.

good one.

I owe it to the young generation to help them grow up. When they refuse, it's my duty to push them down on the sword.

Such as? Please provide citations. Otherwise this is libel.

You are a spoiled little boy. Watching you grow up is gonna be FUN. I will so enjoy watching life kick your ass. I will remind you each and every time it happens. I will never miss an opportunity. Never.

Thats a little pathetic. You need to get a life guy.

You would be hard pressed to find anywhere when I weighed in against a macbook (for anything other than mindless sarcasm). Never used one, don't want to. My complaints have been related to the IPOD and the IPAD, places I do have experience. Enough to know I don't like them. My "praise" if you could call it that, is completely third hand. Would it stand up to a market share similar to Windows? No idea, but that's a good test. Too bad they're too stupid to give it a try.

Seeing as they're worth more than Microsoft today, I'd say they're doing just fine... I trust Steve Jobs and Tim Cooks sense of business over yours.

"They're a hardware company". WTF does that even mean?

This means exactly what it says. Apple is a hardware company, not a software company, per Steve Jobs. I don't remember the exact keynote, but Steve made mention how Apple Inc. while changing their name from Apple Computers Inc. to Apple Inc. is and always will be a hardware company first. They write their own software to supplement their beautiful hardware.

Basically, they're a user experience company. Not a vendor selling silo'd product.

You sell what sells, if you have ANY brains at all. You OWE your shareholders nothing less than that. It is malfeasance and mismanagement to do anything else. If you don't want to do this, then don't become a publicly held company. Once you are, you're justifiably held to that standard.

That is really stupid and shows a lack of business sense. You don't sell something just because it sells. You sell something to make money - Period. End of story. I'm sure that Apple has plenty of statisticians crunching the numbers and they chose the route they take because it will make the most money.

Furthermore, it's crystal clear to me that you don't understand the value of branding and upholding an image. Apple has no desire in tarnishing their near-flawless branding by running/supporting their software on some garbage hardware. Not only will this damage the brand, but stifle innovation.

By any standard but yours, my "stuff" is not cheap, bottom of the barrel stuff, but when you're young and ignorant, that's all you got, so you use it. At the end of the day, I'd rather be a "has been" than a "never will be", which is where you are. All your advice is based on "theory" instead of experience, because you have NONE.

Your stuff is cheap. It's low end. You have some ghetto iPod knock-off instead of going with the de facto standard of mobile music. You also are in the counter-culture of hippies thinking that Android on tablets is cool. There is a reason that shit is not selling at all except to idiots like you.

Never will be? Child please. You don't have the brains, vision or drive that I have. Your lack of understanding of the value of a brand shows this.

Finally - I'm done with this thread and this discussion. I won't engage with you further on it.

Good, because you don't know a damn thing about technology, business, etc.

So go ahead, make the last post (it would be impossible for you to do otherwise), and let's let this one die. I will bump it at some point in the future, you can count on that, but until Apple screws up, let's let it die a painful death. When Apple crashes, I will throw a party at the "cheap mother fucking" homestead to celebrate. We can swim in my "cheap mother fucking" pool, go for beer in my "cheap mother fucking" car, and play with my "cheap mother fucking" android tablets, while watching my "cheap motherfucking tv's".

Sounds like fun to me.

That's because you don't know what fun is. Apple is going to screw up someday, no doubt, but I'll be out of the game long before that onto the next big thing.

While I have no doubt that you can balance a check book and maybe even read a bar graph, it's quite clear to me that you don't have any clue what your typical person wants in a product, what technologies are relevant (flash discussion), how a business creates a successful product, etc. The selling comments you made were truly ridiculous and show a fundamental lack of understand of brand and vision.

Worth nothing for those previously hating on the Apple stores. As a consumer, they're by far the best stores I've shopped at. Smart staff who doesn't pressure you into crap, etc. Extremely helpful!

Apple has the "it" factor that no one else has.

I know I've said this on here maybe 50 times, but if you keep talking to him, he's going to keep talking back to you. It's what he enjoys. He could care less if he's right or wrong. You're arguing with yourself really.

Dont feed the troll and the troll will eventually get bored and leave.

As for iTunes, I fucking hate the fact that it defaults itself to auto-synch when you plug in your device. When you chose to update manually, it wipes all the files on your device. So I set it to manual at home, put music on. I get to work and want to add more music I have to set it yet again to manual where it wipes all my files yet again. When I reload my home or work computer, I start the cycle all over again. Fuck iTunes. Read the fucking device and see what my prefs are. Don't fucking tell me what my prefs are then make me change them and fuck with me when I do. </itunesrant>

[Partial]

Yeah, iTunes isn't the best for synching. It is, however, still the best music player/store despite it's bloated software glory. Luckily, iCloud will solve both of these problems. Better synching, slimmed down iTunes yeah buddy!

VY has a pretty darn good record as a starter. He may be off his rocker, but you can't deny he wins. If coaches keep their jobs with a winning record, why doesn't he with his ~65% winning percentage??

This stuff is a little scary, but in general I attribute it to everyone under the sun knowing that Apple is very late with their iPhone refresh and it would be foolish to buy one now.
