You can't blame Apple for your own oversight.
The intel macs were announced last year,
and if you're a professional using a mac, you ought to have known that MacWorld was happening.

It's just silly to thing that buying a computer the day before a trade show won't yeild any regrets.
Thanks for pointing this out. I hadn't fully realized until hearing it the 40th time.

And yeah, the new computer is great. And Apple is great. And I like the rumors. And the resellers are top notch. And business is great. And the stock is doing well. I love my ipod. I really love itunes. And what about Final Cut? Totally sweet. Dashboard? Killer. Spotlight? Rad. Front row? Awesome. MacBook? Power. Imac? The sweetest.

I'll get in line if that means this thread will end. The horn-rimmed unite.

Guess it depends where you buy.

My situation was resolved and I posted to that effect. Apple...is truly perfect in every way.

So anyway, why are you so pissed off at Apple?

So how does your music software run through Apple's Rosetta software translator?

I read them all. And, you never mentioned that you kept the G5.
I think that it's fucking funny, though... especially since you called ME a moron.
after all of this, you kept the g5!?!?! priceless!

so, how did the manager "make it right"?

Yeah, it is priceless. How many times do I have to say that I'm taking it down a notch and that I was wrong? Will you ever forgive me, Subatomic Pieces for...uh...being angry with Apple? I'll bet it's lonely out there on the cutting edge of confrontational internet nose-picking.

But if I was in your stupid band, I'd probably carry around a lot of anger and resentment too. Better drag out those Lips records and get to work!

Good bye, cruel internet.

I don't have any anger or resentment.

I just think that public meltdowns are funny. And, yours was as funny as any I've seen in a while.
your personal attacks about my band just make it that much more humorous.

thanks for this... really.

And now we've got personal attacks! We can finally legitimately lock this thread! Everyone can get off thearnicasync's back now.
