introducing the Apple Macbook 'Wheel'
AtomSmasher:
It's funny how easily you can spot Mac fanboys when they start adamantly defending OSX and bashing XP even though no one else has mentioned either one.

I've been yelling at people to buy GM stock since the last week of December and it's up 33%. I think Obama is going to shovel a huge pile of money on them in a few weeks and the margin will get even better. I also think Chesapeake Energy & Tesoro are selling cheap but I'm reluctant to touch energy right now.

i take it you are recommending them for the short term? if long term, what are GM going to do that is fundamentally different? that is, whatever it is that got them so deep in the poo, what will they change?

Don't know under what rock you have lived the last 10 years, but Windows was once a Macintosh "look-a-like".

Well, having seen Vista, it still is a wanna be Mac OS. Thus, MS is the follower, not the leader. Look how well MS is doing in the MP3 player business anyone got a Zune here ?.......Look how well they do in the Mobile Phone business.......it's a joke. They are a one-trick pony, they fail to innovate completely.

IIRC the start of this thread was a fake video about a product that anyone with more than 2 braincells know that Apple would never produce.
If you want to make a really funny video, try to hit Apple at it's weak spots, not it's strong spots, because that just shows your lack of creativity IMHO.
The clickwheel and the intuitive way it works on the iPod is one of the key features why the iPod dominates the market. It's the perfect input for a device that doesn't require typing lots of text. A click wheel on a computer is an insane idea.
The last real come-back that Apple made was with the launch of the first iMac. After that they've been doing better and better, there haven't been any come-backs after that, just good new products.
Call me a fanboy if you want, so far, I've only bought two Apple products in my life. A Mac Mini and an iPod 4G Nano. I am a satisfied customer. That's all.
