    Seth, Tell Us again how Apple didn't invent Firewire?

    iTunes, Apple ultimately in trouble?

    :rolleyes:I don't know where you get your fruitcake information, but you should seek another source, really. You are so amazingly wrong it is truly mind boggling. In all honesty, I have never seen anyone outside of a Microsoft board so utterly and blatantly ignorant with regards to Apple...

    iTunes, Apple ultimately in trouble?

    which is even more laughable. So if I'm a child, then I haven't a clue as to what you are, other than wrong.

    iTunes, Apple ultimately in trouble?

    That would be pretty sad then for you wouldn't it? Being outwitted and proven wrong by a child, right? :D

    iTunes, Apple ultimately in trouble?

    Boy you really don't know anything do you? None of this would have started if you hadn't made the moronic statement that you did. And FYI, Apple takes tremendous pride in their innovation and industrial design. Jonathan Ive has won numerous awards for his work at Apple. But Apple doesn't...

    Oops, Steve Jobs has a new slide to add to his Keynote Presentation

    LOL! I'm sure you'll forgive us for taking your "opinions" with a very small grain of salt. Especially after this ludicrous assertion of yours. Anyone that makes a statement like that certainly cannot be counted on to provide anything remotely resembling "factual" information. Furthermore...

    iTunes, Apple ultimately in trouble?

    Perhaps you meant to say Microsoft and not Apple? If not, you are simply clueless to the point of inanity. Some research would be in order before you embarass yourself on the Internet like that again. Since you couldn't even find one, here's a hint: IEEE 1394, commonly known as 'FireWire'...

    Oops, Steve Jobs has a new slide to add to his Keynote Presentation

    John Fortt is known in IT circles as a moron. He's been so consistenty wrong with his "predictions" that him denying it usually means it's a lock. Hardly. It's more like you just simply don't understand things. Your (inane) assertion that Apple would now be losing money on the iPod to make it...

    Computer Makers Sued Over Hard-Drive Capacity Claims

    Guys, Don't bother arguing with RobertR. He's convinced that he and only he is right and wont budge. When he is proven wrong, he will go back and edit his post to remove whatever he said that was wrong, even 2 years after the fact. It's a no-win situation guys, let it go.

    Oops, Steve Jobs has a new slide to add to his Keynote Presentation

    Actually an audiophile would either use uncompressed AIFF or a high bit rate AAC. AAC != DRM you know. And geeks would most likely use Ogg Vorbis and not buy the iPod in the first place. :)

    US$99 iPod coming in January 2004

    Nice try but sorry. It was a thread crap, and if you're so unfamiliar with the term, perhaps you should educate yourself before you do it again.

    iTunes, Apple ultimately in trouble?

    Hysterical. What everyone misses is that the iTunes Music Store is nothing more than a loss leader for Apple to sell more iPods, period, end of story. Let 100 other "downloadable music" sites come online, doesn't matter. No one else has the iPod. For every iPod sold, that's another...

    US$99 iPod coming in January 2004

    Why in the hell would he want to run Napster when there's iTunes Music Store? Do you know anything about Apple's products? On second thought don't answer, we already know the answer to that question.

    Your top 10 "Fantasy" DVDs that will never come out (bootlegs don't count)

    Robert Altman's Short Cuts Unless you give me proof Colin, I am assuming that this will never come to DVD. It's been over 6 years (almost 7) and I'm still waiting for it. Does that fall within your "rules?"

    Apple Sells 25 Million Songs On The Internet!

    Michael you simply don't get it. The iTunes Music store could continue to lose money for 5 years, as long as they sell iPods, which they are doing at record numbers. The business model is selling Apple hardware. Read that last sentence slowly and repeatedly. They simply don't need to make money...

    A High Resolution iPod in the future?

    Flash, not flash, the principle is exactly the same. And the older models only have 32 MB of RAM, further exacerbating the situation.

    A High Resolution iPod in the future?

    Lee, Keep in mind that your battery life will plummet if you use the iPod in that fashion. iPod has 64MB of flash memory in which it stores data from the hard drive. Normally this is perfect because the avergae MP3 or AAC file is ~ 5MB so it can read 10 songs off the disk and store them in...
