    Why'd they make it sooo ugly?

    Has everyone seen the latest in line of IMAC afterbirth. Who the hell comes up with these ugly ass designs. Here's a link to see it.

    Let the MAC bashing commence. j/k

    have you heard that Apple has hired a bunch of open source developers to help out with the "new" OS.

    Have they have given up on being the elitist pigs we've come to put up with or is this just a way for M$ to bury them once and for all?

    Companies planning to purchase LCD flat-panel displays in volume this year could face sudden price increases or a lack of product availability due to an impending LCD display shortage.

    The only redeeming feature is the classy "new iMac" text next to that hideous picture.

    Can't have everything I guess....

    Actually, I get my first MAC tomorrow. A friend of a friend rang me and said "do you wanna MAC?" and of course I said yes so it's being dropped off sometime tomorrow.


    I'm a little excited about it. I'm bored with Windoze (here's a quote I found rather amusing concerning Windoze ME- "Your mouse has moved. Windows needs to reboot for the changes to take affect. Would you like to reboot now?"), I'm slowly getting the hang of Red Hat and now I'm gonna give MAC a try. Variety is the spice of life!
