bwahahahahahaha they put the power button on the back,
probably so that the front is more 'stylish' (read: 'lame').
fucking retards.

have you seen the new i-pod?

seems a little ridiculous due to the fact it costs $100 or
$150 and the larger model only holds a gig

i own the 20 gig and its great, i understand not everyone
needs that much music on them at all times, but in terms of
a sound investment...

apple is bizarre with some of their releases

there were two or three threads discussing those
ipods...personally i think it's silly.

Yeah.... maybe the button alone in the front might have been
stylish. But as all the rest is in the back... gotta stand
up, get your head in the cables.... It's not practical.
i dunno really... °~ª

right... so it doesn't really matter at the end of the day.
It's all about the style. :)
infront then "for the the style of the thing".

maybe they could do two versions..you know, for people with
different tastes..

Apple Macs, the Italian Sportscar of the Computing World;
Form over Function, and not that fast anymore, either (G5
doesn't count ;-) ).

it's a chip instead of a harddisk, which is more
shockresistant and stuff

I'm tempted to get one because it's small, portable and I
fancy having one.

Apparently they are aiming at the impulse byer market which
is where I can see it being a success. The swatch watch of
our age maybe?

Looks cool enough for an average "email and photo"
consumer.

I like the people complaining about there not being any
input on the front of it. It's only 6.5 inches further to
reach the back!

I don't see why anyone would complain about this... it's a
good price for what you get I think, the position of the
power button hardly sums up the functional side of apple.

the decision of the power button is crucial for one reason:
it stresses where their focus lies.

Or does it focus where their stress lies

I know one good thing about Macs is this:
As a PC user for a good while now, dealing with all this
spyware, adware, malware, worms, viruses, trojans, etc. ...
is just shit. SHIT SHIT SHIT

everyone get's worked up about macs because of all of the
buzz surrounding them
and because they (the people, and the macs) are stupid...
I get excited about them because they use IBM's power
architecture
I am also stupid
