Microsoft enlists Jerry Seinfeld to counter Apple’s deceptive and unethical advertising

Published on August 21, 2008

Anyone who knows me knows that I have a serious problem with Apple’s “I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” ads. I think the whole campaign incredibly deceptive and unethical. Its one of the main reasons I have never made the switch to Apple - and I have been tempted on several occasions.
Microsoft is finally fighting back. [...]


Mac Fanboy gets a little too excited about his new purchase

Published on March 28, 2008

I’m watching this video closely. This guy might be Jeremy, or Connor, or Russ, or maybe its Blake. I can’t tell but I think its someone I know.

I’m so glad I own an HP.
Have a nice weekend!


In a sudden moment thousands of Apple fanboys give up books and add Amazon.com to their list of mortal enemies

Published on January 28, 2008

Watch for the announcement of a book burning party at your local Apple Store 
One can only read into this statement as a directive from the supreme leader of the Ministry of Fruit. Its a good thing the New York Times is there to set the record strait:
“…when Mr. Jobs was asked two weeks ago at the Macworld Expo [...]


The world is driven by emotion

Published on January 16, 2008

The stock market no longer moves based on sound fundamentals - it swings on the emotion of fund managers, media opinion, politics, and the average Joe’s paranoia. 
On that note, Apple’s stock sunk yesterday when Steve Jobs didn’t announce any new ground breaking products at MacWorld. Fundamentally the company couldn’t be doing any better.
Hillary Clinton sheds a tear and the Democrats in New [...]


Friday round up - questions

Published on November 2, 2007

If you have any insight into my questions below please feel free to educate me in the comments:
I thought Mac’s didn’t have the dreaded blue screen of death? Looks like thats not the case for some new Leopard installs. I haven’t seen a blue screen on a Windows operating system in about seven years. Maybe I’m [...]


Great thoughts from this week

Published on October 11, 2007

From Valleywag:
“Overstock.com usually charges $2.95 per order for shipping. However, when they drop the shipping price to $1, the average order size skyrockets. Why does saving two dollars on a $400 bookcase make people more likely to buy? Everyone loves a bargain, while no one loves math.”
Gee if that’s the case then why not go [...]


Playing with an iPhone

Published on July 30, 2007

I was out to lunch with Jeremy Hanks today. He picked up an iPhone about a month ago and showed me all the cool features. Overall I was impressed with the iPhone. The mail app was way better than I thought it would be and so was Safari. I was really blown away by the quality [...]


iPhone honeymoon is over

Published on July 10, 2007

Well its now been about two weeks since the iPhone launch and its apparent that the honeymoon is over. Yes, overall people like the phonecomputeripodcommunicatoremailbrowserthingy but the Apple fanboys (and girls) seem to have a lot of (legitimate) complaints about the phones missing features and bugs. Hey, people its iPhone 1.0 - its not going to be perfect!

Mossberg (and Knudsen) reviews the iPhone

Published on June 27, 2007

The iPhone is going to be a hit. I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing the phone and looking at the first reviews. I think V1.0 of the iPhone is a leap ahead in mobile computing (this thing is really more of a computer than a phone) but I will definitely wait to get an [...]


Apple fanboy Walt Mossberg gives iPhone mixed initial review

Published on June 11, 2007

Famed Wall Street Journal tech writer Walt Mossberg got his iPhone and, so far, he seems to have mixed reviews. In front of a group of college students Mossberg pulled out his new iPhone and offered this:
“I don’t know whether I’ll give it a good review or not,” he said, noting that he will use [...]
