Apple announced that Al Gore (former Vice President) will be joining Apple's Board of Directors:

?Al brings an incredible wealth of knowledge and wisdom to Apple from having helped run the largest organization in the world?the United States government?as a Congressman, Senator and our 45th Vice President. Al is also an avid Mac user and does his own video editing in Final Cut Pro,? said Steve Jobs, Apple?s CEO. ?Al is going to be a terrific Director and we?re excited and honored that he has chosen Apple as his first private sector board to serve on.?

Bttm and Ovi are currently placing orders for new Dells!😛
Seriously though, it's nice to know that Al Gore is a mac user.
 
Al Gore

Apple will REALLY benefit from Vice President Al Gore's membership on the board due to the fact that he invented the internet!!!
 
I think we'll see a lot of the more conservative Mac users jumping ship to the SS Microsoft shortly 😛
 
Yep. A valuable member indeed. Nothing like having the inventor of the internet on board, huh?

--edit--

Wow. Beat to the punch twice
 
April Fools?

Someone at Apple is playing an April Fools' joke, right? Right? Someone tell me this isn't true...

Anyway, this pretty much negates the need for that troublesome politics board--conservatives are anti-Mac!
 
You have to be kidding me!!!

Is this a joke?

Mr. Al "I invented the internet" Gore?

The idiot that took him over a month to realize and accept that he LOST the election?

Why don't you just have my dog serve as a board member? My dog would have just as much to offer in terms of intelligence!!!!

Was Steve smoking a joint when he typed up this press release????

Geeezzz!!!!!
 
I'm speechless...seriously...

how interesting to go from Vice-Pres...to Apple Board Member...

😱 😱 😱

HEATHEN!!!!!!! Just Kidding

Anyways, Al Gore, Apple im sure it makes sense to somebody.

P.S. Whats this about him inventing the Internet (im not american)...
 
Dubya

-Aww Dammit!

Why couldn't they have gotten Dubya? Maybe then he'd understand the gravity of the rolling dog slap-on-wrist-wet noodle judgement last fall.

Can you say Microsoft Antitrust Part II Smackety?

My dog could make a better president than him. And him being on Apple's board?😕 He's such an idiot! Why couldn't we just get Wozniak back?😉
 
Pretty cool. Hope he adds something good to the board. 🙂

P.S. Sorry, I just realized that I created a similar thread just seconds ago. I didn't check the frontpage. 🙁 I guess a mod should close it or something. Sorry!!!
 
This news has made my day. They really should have him do some plugs or slap him on the home page or something... Can't wait to show my Mac buddy who voted Bush.

Gore, there's a reason behind everything. Go get 'em!
