Remember the Pippin? Yeah... The Pippin... One thing's for sure... It was definitely not "pippin."

Apple's not going outside the computer industry, and that's that!

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I HATE APPLE. Their computers arent really computers. They are just a shitty Kinda computer, for kids.

 You must prefer your "real computers" with complimentary periodic Blue Screens of Death. :)



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

I just want to say that the Iphone was a large success and some analyst are predicting massive sales over the next five years. As for the price drop...Its very common to drop the price of cell phones in the first year. Perhaps some of you need to start reading the wall street journal or financial times.

Except a lot of those kids are graphic designers, artists and musicians who make more in a year than you will in 10.

Oh wait, I have another one...

Except that Macs dual boot into windows and are more powerful windows machines than yours.

Hold on...

Except that Macs don't need to be reformatted every three months as a recommendation by the OS developer (MS actually recommends you reinstall windows every three months due to viruses and spyware).

It seems to me that a computer which gets covered in dirty things like viruses and spyware from normal operation and needs to be fixed regularly is more "childish" than a machine which stays clean and doesn't fuck up. 



"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks

ZING!

 Umm, where have you been recently? They have released a phone and mp3 players!


Ha, ha... True... Let me rephrase that... Apple is not going back into the video game industry...

Please note: I own an iPhone 8 GB... LOL...
