Why you should not buy a Mac (preaching to the choir here, yes, but amusing nonetheless):

IBM and other manufacturers have been doing this for years.

I recall in something like 2002, a client speccing out an upgraded RS6000 running AIX (4way 600Mhz I think) and looking at the breakdown of costs I remember just laughing at the cost of memory alone.

4Gb Ram - $12,000

Total cost was actually - $160,000

I eventually persuaded this client to take our linux version of the software, even though it was new at the time, and I specced out two high end dual xeons for them which came to about $25,000 total and that includes a hefty overhead for onsite service.

They've never looked back :)

AIX is the sadist excuse for a unix I've ever seen. Of course, my only experience thus far is Versions 4 and 5. I suspect 6 isn't much better, though. If I had to choose between AIX and Windows, I'd take Windows. That's how much I hate AIX.

This point becomes even more poignant when people remember what your license plate is...

v6 is much the same. I've never been much of a fan of AIX either. I dislike smit. Only one I hate more is HP-UX. Bring back Dynix, that was my favorite. I even got to visit the old Sequent HQ just outside Portland,Or before they were bought out by IBM.

So THAT's why F$ had a question...

EDIT: Deleted the above post. I found only the image, but it's hosted on a site with naked people, so I can't link to it. But use your imaginations for the hilarity... :))

Dear Apple,

What kind of idiot creates a Tablet or Phone that won't run Java or Flash in a Java and Flash based world?!?!?!

'NUF said. I could see in 2 or 3 years when we've moved on to HTML 5 and whatnot, therefore rendering Flash and Java possibly (hopefully) obsolete. But in 2008-2011??? These fruit guys and their arrogance just kill me.:-o

But, but according to their current ad campaign, if you don't have an iPhone, YOU DON'T HAVE AN IPHONE!!! THE WORLD WILL CRUMBLE!!!

I can't believe I dropped a grand on the iPhone and iPad... I'm so ashamed. #-o

I guess we are all doomed.

Especially with the iPhone 5 right around the corner? ;)
Personally, I think the Atrix spanks the iPhone 4...will have to see what they have up their sleeve for 5, though.

I bought the 4 about a year ago... I bought the iPad a couple of months ago.

Verizon, who I had been with for 5 years would not give me any kind of break when the Android came out. So Verizon lost my business and I went to AT&T.
