Never have I laughed so much at a video due to bias.

When he was comparing the note taking facilities I was in stiches. He claimed that netbooks had notoriously bad keyboards, yet didn't care to go into any more detail (I have never had a problem with a netbook keyboard, yes it's a little small, but they are reliable and not much smaller than the iPads virtual keyboard).

He then tried note taking on his iPad, when the screen decided to randomly flip orientation a couple of time. He then placed it on the desk and said you can type on it and it works just like a regular PC. Does he use his PC flat on the surface of his desk? It looked extremely unnatural, no-one will want to type like that. There is a reason PC and laptop monitors are stood upright.

And then he just nonchalantly claimed that the iPad was better at note taking, even though it was clearly much worse.

*sigh* Apple fanboys...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who found that part absolutely hilarious.

I love way he said "we're going to try text edit, or on as they call it on netbooks *sniggers* Notepad". He said it with such unnecessary condescension, as though he had been brain washed by Apple.

The sad things is I know a couple of Apple fans who would have done just the same thing.

My only consolation is that within a year of him using the ipad to type notes while having it horizontal, his neck vertebrae will be completely ruined. I mean hell, my neck hurts when I am typing on vertical monitors, a flat one would absolutely murder me.
