i wanna know why are you bashing on apple.

if it wasnt for apple, people wouldnt have a sweet music store(itunes)

if it wasnt for apple, people were forced to use windows.

if it wasnt for apple, there would be no touch screen phone till 2011.

if it wasnt for apple, there would be no angrybirds.

can someone reply to me in this thread on why do you hate apple/iphone?

IT'S U,,,,,,,,, ISHEEP:eek:

Re: what do you guys have against apple?

Re: what do you guys have against apple?

well I dont like apple because, I had always heard, "one apple a day keeps doctors away", so I ate a bunch of apples,
and now I like this doctor a lot, but she is always away from me,

His lies affect my work.
Applications that I worked on and tested to make sure they work fine with any browser on any machine (yes even with IE5 and 6) will now have to be iPad and iPhone friendly :mad: ( or iDiot compatible as I like to call it )

The main reason for this is that one of the directors at my work is totally brainwashed by Apple. He's a 62 year old man.

Hey, don't hold his youth against him. He'll eventually grow up.

Re: what do you guys have against apple?

Apple rocks. I'm on a fully loaded Macbook Pro right now typing this. I'm also a certified OS X Server engineer, as well as a certified RH Linux and VMWare ESX engineer. It's all Unix to me, in one form or another. Far as I'm concerned, when I shell out on my N900 I get a bash prompt....and when I shell out on my Macbook I get the same bash prompt. Life is good as far as I'm concerned.

Re: what do you guys have against apple?

i hate steve jobs because of his pride to never admit the antenna problem to the point he went low to drag other phone manufacturers. what he's saying might be true but the iphone is more famous with a huge dissapointment so just learn to accept some failure in the product.

he feels so great to put adobe down. sure flash has its quirks but never bad mouth other companies for your own benefit. it's just so low and dirty...

he thinks people are stupid to say the signal meter is not really accurate. then why the hell are phones using a signal meter when it's not true?

i hate apple for trying to make themselves the basis of being universal when in fact, all their accessories only works in their products. everybody use this but they want to be different or maybe just earn more....the usb posted is an example...

you already bought the product but you can't just use it in any network (i'm on t-mo) unless you hack it. just give the damn unlock code or sell an unlocked one. only the apps offered like ifart is available when the cooler apps are being kicked out. too much control...

the only thing that impressed me is their marketing style. they are so good that consumers are like mindless zombies buying apple products. no company and not even microsoft made a craze like that...

Re: what do you guys have against apple?

Looking at this thread, I'm amazed at the power that Steve Jobs holds over the people that aren't even Apple customers.

Do you hear that? Of course you don't, it's silence. I just put 8 GB in my new unibody Mac Mini. I use MacPorts for most of the CLI and X11 loose ends, and I ssh -Y, scp and sshfs into an Ubuntu 10.04 virtual machine with scratchbox installed. I don't hear a single fan. Not one buzz. They crammed the power supply into that little box for Pete's sake. No more power brick. Life is really good. All my noisy Linux boxes are enjoying a deep slumber.

Apple rocks big time.
