So new AT&T customers can get the new iPhone 3GS for on the cheap, but us dedicated faithful followers have to shell out 600$ minimum for new tech?
F this. F AT&T, and yeah, I’ll say it, F Apple. No way I’m buying anything else from them in the near future. My experience with Windows 7 has been pretty good, maybe it’s time to jump across the pond again?
7 is a good OS. It really feels like Apple dropped the ball at WWDC from a marketing standpoint. They spent way too much time beating a dead horse. Vista sucks; Everyone knows this, including Microsoft. That’s why there’s such a push to get 7 out there. It’s very much akin to WinME vs. 2000 or XP. Me blew huge chunks and 2000/XP were rock solid for many years. Vista again blew chunks and I feel that 7 is going to be rock solid.
It is the very nature of tech to be fickle. To go with the best option that doesn’t bend you over and fuck you like a prison bitch is never a bad thing. I used to be a huge AMD processor fanboi because it was my opinion that it was the best bang for the buck. I now use nothing but Intel because I think it’s the better processor. Samething with ATi vs. nVidia graphics cards. nVidia has the better product, hands down (again, in my opinion). I think Apple makes a good product. They are also about to fuck a lot of loyal iPhone users without lube. I was ready to buy a 3GS on release day until you informed me of the douchebaggery that Apple/AT&T is going to pull with the latest hardware. I don’t understand how a company like Apple would think alienating their loyal customer base like this would think it’s a good idea.
The best thing now is the $30 upgrade to Snow Leopard. I’m sure that made Redmond shit their pants. I also see Snow Leopard being the same idea as Vista, but Apple did a much better job of spinning the short comings of Leopard. They call Vista bloated, but Snow Leopard decreases the digital footprint of Leopard by 6GB. 7 is also smaller than Vista. Wouldn’t this mean that Leopard was bloated as well? They are calling Snow Leopard a new OS, which they are introducing full integration with Microsoft Exchange. Isn’t this dealing with the Devil from an Apple POV? They hate on everything MS, but yet they won’t release an Apple answer for the best e-mail server on the market. They also make a big deal about the integration. I’m willing to bet most of this integration could have been done with a big update, but yet they decide to create a new OS release. Isn’t this the same thing 7 is taking some flack over? “7 is nothing more than a big RC for Vista to fix things Vist should have already had”. Leopard should have already had some kind of exchange / general MS integration at launch if they want to continue to grow.
Apple has become ‘The Party’ from 1984, and I’m going to drink the fucking Kool-Aide anymore! They are masters of doublespeak. “MS sucks for [something]! Look over here! Our shit NOW does [samething]!” FUCK YOU APPLE! FUCK YOU AT&T! I fucking hate Big Brother. You can both kiss my white, fuzzy ass! I’ll take my free 3.0 upgrade and stick with my old phone. Both of you pretentious ass-monkies will rot in hell before I give you anymore of my hard-earned money then I have to. Nothing short of a blowjob with some ball juggling ending with a collective facial on both of you will change my mind. Just to be nice, I’ll dip my nuts in some maranara sauce so you fuckers can get a taste of home while your at it!

Get’em, Leo.
Leo is one of the coolest people I’ve ever met. If he were to blow up like this, dude totally deserved it. It makes me happy to see this side of him.
