    Apple/Microsoft....My Prediction

    Somewhere down the road, at what point I dunno, Microsoft and Apple will become one company, with Microsoft buying out Apple. The most likely scenario is this: with the US economy and financial system unwinding with greater and greater speed , a massive implosion is just a matter of...

    Apple Unveils Product-Unveiling Product

    "hype-generating mechanism with fully integrated Mac compatibility" Yeah, just what's needed to manipulate all the sheeple into madly and mindlessly running out and buying more "bells and whistles". Gotta have it! Gotta have it! Gotta have it! Spend more! Spend more! Spend more! You never...

    Bill Gates is an ugly person...

    Let's face it, all these pissy remarks about Gates springs from envy. He's incredibly wealthy, he's powerful and he's famous. And, secretly, you ARE thinking, "God, why couldn't it be me!?". Right? Come on, now, drop the denial and fess up!;)

    External Microphones?
