Of course he's going to react/respond this way, who are we kidding.
Dreams? DREAMS? You lucky B***TARD! If our mother caught us dreaming she would skin us alive and rake her finger nails across our exposed flesh and send us straight off to go and collect sweat of the backs of crocodiles.
Tired of clicking refresh?????
Here is how you can stay up to date with the mac.com and me.com's page status:
jacklinkproductions.com/refresher.html
this page will refresh mac.com and me.com in the same window every 5 seconds. (idk... but apple might kill me for this.)

quite a few macrumors members have reported receiving such replies from that email address.
Nah, it's all in good funReminds me of the iPhone 1.0 days and price dropping...
Nothing you cant toss together with a quick screenshot of gmail and some copy-paste
From what I did see of mobileme, it's quite the impressive web app. Certainly feels like more of a desktop application, and I'm not all that surprised they've hit some snags with all the features and all.
Bolloc*s! You really wrote it!
Everyone is. There is some major snafu on Apple's end. Either the service is being overloaded through interest, or there is some major problem preventing it from staying up. I'm with the former, since it was really slow when it was up.
iDisk appears to work just fine though.
Yeah, I would have been peeved that things are not working as they should as well. LoL
What is it with the people defending Apple over this?
They clearly stated on their website that the .mac to MobileMe change over would result in the system being unavailable for 6 hours, though my reading of it was that this was the maximum time and it was likely to be less. They've over run that by 14 hours and counting.
That is a pretty major screw up and most definitely not what they advertised and is made worse by a complete lack of updates on the status.
They could very easily of delayed MobileMe or the app store going live, instead they decided to go for doing everything over a couple of days. Anyone could see that is a recipe for disaster.
Having said all that I'm not too bothered as I don't use .mac much so it hasn't caused me any problems.

There's a whole *SPECIAL* desk for e-mails like that. The room it is in is clearly labeled.
I think you meant .me btw.
It will get pushed to your machine when you connect successfully. I have had it since last night (my time).
Actually, by most reports, he has a tendency to be rude at times in private. He does not suffer fools gladly, as the saying goes. So that reply would not be out of character, especially as it's not really even rude, at least to my eye.
That said, I would expect Steve to have better things to do at the moment than be reading random emails from unknown senders. So no offense, but I'm with those that are raising the BS flag on this one.

Althought I was tempted to open your link in about 100 tabs and then go watch a movie.
As I said, it was a joke and nothing more... laugh
Seems like MobileMe really is Exchange for the rest of us...
