Um, did anyone notice that the picture of the scratched nano was the one Arstechnica had just run over with a car?
Got a tip for us?

mad jew said:The only bit that I found a little bit funny was when the site said that since there's antivirus software, there must be viruses.
I thought it quite amsuing that a load of the ads at the top of each page were for Macs and Mac products/services.
why bother with that site ? tripod ?? who are they
and why was he using IE ? unsupported since well ... umm long time

this sort of stuff really doesn't bother me, my mac is great, it has enabled me to do things that my old windows box never did, and I enjoy using it!
Some kid with a silly website can't ever change that! Leave him with windows.

I think most of it is funny.
I don't think the creator really believes all this stuff, but I bet he is a disgruntled employee. SOmeone who probably got caught leaking info to MacRumors or Think secret.
Or maybe Issac Hayes and Tom Cruise joined forces, because L. Ron Hubbard didn't make it to the Think Different posters a few years back

And if this fool knew anything about Apple and OSX, he would know that it does crash and that the Mac using community knows that.
I also love how he says, YES THERE ARE VIRUSES, and goes on to list security holes and vulnerablities. Like we didnt know that already. But he never lists any hard proof evidence of a "virus"

Check this out. It definitely shows that he's wrong:
1. Steve Jobs didn't come back to Apple until 1997. You said he did this processor comparison in 1995. He was still working for NeXT at that time.
2. The Intel Core Duo is faster than the G4, obviously. G4 is last-gen, while Intel Core Duo is modern and new.
3. Comparing last-gen hardware to modern hardware and saying that someone lied because they compared Intel Core Duo to last generation hardware is absolutely stupid.
Bottom Line: Apple didn't lie. You did.

I agree with you, the site is so ridiculous that I don't even believe the most ardent Apple-hater in the world would believe most of it. Most likely it's all there to generate hits on all the ads he has there and I suppose it's working.raggedjimmi said:
Damn, you can get a domain at GoDaddy for next to nothing. And hosting there is CHEAP.
Anyway, I think what we have here is a snotty, friendless dork with too much time to waste. Rather than CREATE, he/she seeks to destroy. That's a sign of someone completely devoid of creativity. Also, the work that has to go INTO a site devoted on destruction is a sign of excessive/compulsive disorder. Lastly, his complete disregard of FACT is a sign of carelessness that most certainly spills over into the outside world.
So, all this indicates a young man or man child, with incredibly troubling mental disorders.
I will stand down, and you should all move along... nothing to see here.

Well.
That was disturbing. Espically the pictures of Hitler.
So we're all like Hitler now according to that guy.
