Apple = Junk

[Metric.]

There was a time when Apple was a very good computer company. The iPod mini's, the original iPod's, iMac's, iBooks..
Since then, Apple has gone to ****
Apple was bought by HP, who is the ****tyest computer company around.
I recentlly saw an ad on TV saying Apple is now using Intel processer's in their computers. The only thing that seperates them apart from any other PC is their OS.

How has it 'gone to ****' ? Maybe the computer side is suffering but is this a surprise? The ipod is making obscene amounts of money globally and has really done wonders for mac in recent years..

no wayyy

apple is the best

i am here typing on the new intel imac right now and it is way better than every pc

i am also listening to my ipod hooked up to my speakers

ipods are a huge success and itunes makes soo much money

i read that %14 of all internet traffic is itunes

and what is that thing about it being bought by HP?

i know that they made HP ipods for a while but they have stoped that

from now on apple is going to get better and better

steve jobs just sold Pixar to Disney and now Jobs is the highest holder of disney stock

with this he can get more access to content for ipod videos

disney owns like every tv chanel from abc to espn and even the history chanel

so next time you think your virus proned PC is the sheayat i will be happily working on my functional imac

(haha that was a ranting post)

the 14% is definitely wrong.. lol and actually you will find that mac pc's are some of the lowest spec pc's you can buy... Performance wise they are terrible.

The minis were the good, but then they got rid of them which was stupid, now there arent any good ipods out.

[iluvben]

Ino i was annoyed about the mini I got mine last june when they were out and a few months later there was ipod videos and nano's ''/

I had my mini for about a year and the battery life has died to about 2-3 hours fully charged but i sold it to my mates for £40 lols. I got a video ipod now and it's amazing! :)

[timROGERS]

The iPod mini was the only good one of it's time, the others are way too much for what they are now.

I have always hated Apple, not sure why, the reason died off many months ago.

I really dislike the iPods. Mainly because they were never ment to be released because the music company 'Apple' whoch did something for bands like the Beatles, said they can use the name Apple if they don't involve music in their business plans etc. But since they ignorantly released the iPod, they have sued each other ever since.

Not to mention I know a few people who have had iPods break all the time, one had their iPod lock for no reason (and it was engraved). The fact they are ugly and have hardly any features that don't make them unique anymore.

This how the leader tablfor me is:

1st - Sony Walkman, with FM Radio, Year Shuffler etc.
2nd - Creative Zen - Looks nice and is 'sexier than the iPod. Also has FM Radio.
3rd - Ipod, with outstanding ugliness and bugs. God bless Apple "/

Plus they are more common than than the Duck is another thing.
