When was the other day? February 3? That's what the article had listed on the side.

I have no idea what this could be about, since the info lists the product as a communications device, and that I haven't heard any recent news on it since (if there was any back then).

AlphaTech
Jul 9, 2002, 10:56 PM
You call back on 2/3/02 'just the other day'??? That's just over five months ago.

I for one don't need such a wanker device, and I suspect that only a few people on these forums would either. Look here (http://www.speakwithus.com/), select the products item, and then go to the second half of the page... Looks like device for people with 'special needs'. :eek: :eek: :eek: :D :cool:

[semi-joke]I think that mymemory could use such a device... might help him to improve his English language skills. :eek: :eek: :D [/semi-joke]

Hey, Aztec. I noticed your signature. I first pointed out to you that you were the youngest 4-gidit poster on boards (1000+ posts), according to this (http://www.macrumors.com/forums/showthread.php3?s=&postid=89015#post89015) post from earlier, by KC. Second, have you seen fyter's avatar? He is the first ever creator of the black and white avatars. I like your avatar a bit more than his, actually, a LOT more than his! :D

No offense, fyterdog.

Alpha would go mid-evil (sp) on your momma before he does his! :eek: :eek:

Where the living blue he!! do you see "technical" in the past couple of posts, other than your own? AlphaTech will get technical on anyone's ash before the victim has a chance to correct himself. (Example, Asstec, engaging against two armed flamers!)

>why don't you go slither around in someones a**hole for a little while, before I step on you.
I tried yours while you were trying to think up something to say in the past 6 minutes for that little insert you have there, and I found out there was no sign of intelligence there, either!

You even said it yourself, you have the worst avatar! There is not much worse you can do on the forums, except for make an ash out of yourself.

Techie, I'm sure we have an extra case somewhere, right?

All right, AssTec. Now let's see if you can handle it.

>>what do you do aztec??? Stand on the street corner???
>No, I live at home, don't forget im 13...
That's the problem, Asstec. You don't stand a chance in such a flamewar. You're 13, immature, inexperienced (how many wars have you been in with that iBrator stuck up your rectum?) and outwitted.

>As for KC....why don't you go slither around in Alpha's a** like you have been doing lately. You know he likes it, you just keep going back for more!
If he wanted someone around his ass he would have asked for your mom. Obviously that's why you came into the forums profane and graphically exposed to rated-R movies at age 3.

>Example: >Techie, I'm sure we have an extra case somewhere, right?
If you don't like the guinness, get a root beer.

>Or...>Techie, that's a record for you...7 smilies in a row!
It doesn't hurt to keep track of people's accomplishments. Example: You are the first person to have in their signature a statement, admitting you have the worst avatar. There's no shame in it if you admit it.

>>I'm giving you the go, Techie. Shall we arm al weapons?)
Obviously you will have to come up with your own forces now, since you are not part of the Dark Side and never will be.

>Just keep on snaking around with people huh. Hey, I hear that whip cracking KC.
I'm surprised you haven't died down after one bite on the side of your ash. And what buisness do you have with whipcracking? Have you ever been near it?

>*whi-crack*

>That's the problem, Asstec. You don't stand a chance in such a flamewar. You're 13, immature, inexperienced (how many wars have you been in with that iBrator stuck up your rectum?) and outwitted.

Have you ever even been in a fight? How am I inexperienced. I may be inexperienced online, but not on the streets.

>If he wanted someone around his ass he would have asked for your mom.
I don't think Alpha would want a women to get a dildo and you know....
But I think you would like to ram a man, wouldn't you??

>Obviously that's why you came into the forums profane and graphically exposed to rated-R movies at age 3.
My parents aren't over-protective nit wits trying to cover me up from the real world. Sorry if I didn't watch rated R movies at 18 years of age KC.

>Obviously you will have to come up with your own forces now, since you are not part of the Dark Side and never will be.
Dark Side? WTF? You watch too much Star Wars buddy. The only dark side is when your mom turns sideways and blocks the sun.

>I'm surprised you haven't died down after one bite on the side of your ash.
Yea, internet cobras never seemed to hurt me.

>I'm sure you won't be able to sit for a while.
Why does everything you have to say pertain to a** ramming or iBrators? Do you have a secreat life??

I can read, plain and simple. You said that you host signs for housing committees. Do you even know what houses you are supporting? :eek:

>Have you ever even been in a fight?
Damn right. I know how to work my way around fights here. alex_ant and I got it on once, I got it on with another character on the Article Discussion thread "G4", and I damn well know how to handle those younger than me.

>How am I inexperienced.
You ended your statement without a question mark, and you are yonger than me. Usually, when there is a 3 or 4 year difference at these ages there is a lot of differentiation of experience.

>I may be inexperienced online, but not on the streets.
So I now can take advantage of your weak point.

>I don't think Alpha would want a women to get a dildo and you know....
How do you know? Have you and Alpha got it on?

>But I think you would like to ram a man, wouldn't you??
Why do you think I am looking for pictures of Gwen Stefani? (Nope, I'll wait until I'm 18 or 21 for those pics. Right now I'm interested in the casual looks.)

>My parents aren't over-protective nit wits trying to cover me up from the real world. Sorry if I didn't watch rated R movies at 18 years of age KC.
You found out what the real world can bring to you back then, and you are finding that out now as well.

>Dark Side? WTF? You watch too much Star Wars buddy.
I hate Star Wars. But I was appointed a position for burning newbies and trolls on the forums, which is basically the Dark Side of the forums. [evil laugh]

>The only dark side is when your mom turns sideways and blocks the sun.
I didn't think the sun was that small.

>>I'm surprised you haven't died down after one bite on the side of your ash.
>Yea, internet cobras never seemed to hurt me.
Not physically, of course.

>Why does everything you have to say pertain to a** ramming or iBrators?
You mentioned raming before, not me. I didn't originally mention iBrators, either.

>Do you have a secreat life??
What do I get out of it if I tell you?

Listen, Aztec. It's been a great war, but I need to get some sleep. If my parents find out I've been up all night posting on the forums I wouldn't be here flaming away. So shall we save it until tomorrow?

For one thing, Bubba, I am fairly certain that the God of this site doesn't saction warez, or obtaining software that you [normally] purchase for nothing.

Many of us that are/were in the graphic design field learned to use some powerfull applications. It makes life much easier when you have those apps at home. Those of us in the tech field, install those same applications on systems day after day, and have to support them as well. Once you get into a corporate environment, you learn how important it is to have valid licenses for the software. The only applications that I do not own, and intend to purchase as soon as I can, is PS7 and Quark. I am waiting on Quark until it is OS X native.
