I'm with you, man... But, then again, I'm pretty much an Android fanboy.

There are a bunch of Android tablet thingies coming out soon... should be cheaper, too.

Considering the price of the iPad, coupled with the list of things it can't do that a cheaper netbook can... the iPad better give fucking blowjobs on command or something to justify that price.

And yes, I have used one. Its a nice way to browse 87% of the internet.

No. I don't own anything made by Apple. Just don't like them & I hate I-Tunes, not to mention they don't do Flash.

itunes is awesome shit.

I hate iTunes as well. Apple made the program incredibly limited, why can't you take music off your device to a different iTunes library? If you reformat your computer and forget to copy some special iTunes files your screwed or need to spend money on 3rd party software to take the music off your device. Also getting pictures off your iPhone is limited to the camera raw folder only.

Not that iTunes genius feature isn't amazing, but apple could make iTunes a lot better by adding more features people been asking for since iTunes first came out. Before iTunes came out I strictly used windows media player and had a nice long play list I couldn't bring into iTunes. I could live without iTunes if i could just drop music on my iPhone.

Another issue with apple is the price they charge for everything. Cheapest laptop is 999$, is the base model mac book really worth that price and gonna out perform all other type of laptops out there?

There business practices leave little to be desire. Coming out with an iPad thats basically a giant iPhone but then not even 3 months later they come out with an new iPhone that technically has better hardware? Why even make the iPad if your gonna charge 499$ for the same hardware your gonna make obsolete in three 3 months. The iPad to me looks like a waste of money, if they really wanted to make it something special they would have put more effort into then they did. An iPhone on a larger scale doesn't impress me. I would have liked to see USB ports, Maybe even a mini disk drive.. pretty much anything that makes it look useful.

How do you even get files on the iPad or download software? You have to go through iTunes and add files via your pc or mac.. wait, isn't the iPad suppose to be a tablet pc? Why does it need another PC to actually work?

One last thing that annoys me about apple is how they handle the iPhone, even if you pay off your iPhone with the 2 year contract or buy it commitment free they still won't factory unlock it. To me thats like buying a car from a dealer that has an agreement with a gas company, as long as you owe them money you have to take it to that certain gas station. But wait your car is paid off and fully yours can you go to a cheaper gas station now? Nope cause they hate your face, so your stuck with what they want to give you.

Of course you could jail break, but that can screw up signal strength at times and make your iPhone more useless then how apple gave it to ya.

I'm not hating on apple, just because I'm expressing issues i have about the company. I still own apple stuff, I'm just not a fan that will eat everything they make without really wanting it or looking at the pros and cons.

Just screwing around, it gave me a chance to post that AWESOME gif!

Not on the PC. On the PC is is one of the buggiest, slowest, ugliest pieces of crap ever programmed. Also Apple has not done a very good job of staying ahead of iTunes growth, so shit gets piled on top of shit. I would say that they need to be more proactive in planning for their growth, but the truth is Apple doesn't give two shits since you don't really have any options to using iTunes.

Thanks FERG for the nightmares, I didn't really need to sleep for the next three nights anyway.

Wow the guy with that camera musta been crawling with fire ants or something...

Wu-Tang Clan Kung Fu Movie. Freaking Awesome.

Super excited for TRON Legacy!

I am marginally excited about Tron Legacy.

So far the visuals look good, but for some reason it doesn't really feel like TRON. Imean, the old movie used computer graphics for just about everything, and they look like ass today but it definitely made you feel like everything was being rendered by a computer/inside a computer.

The new movies looks too flashy. Everything is stainless steel and neon lights. Maybe advances in graphics hardware has improved the quality of the world TRON inhabits or some in-movie explanation but from the previews it just doesn't feel like the TRON world.

I will still see it, but I am not gonna get super-excited until I hear that the movie is actually good. Bringing back some of the old cast doesn't mean anything. These days Bruce Boxleitner would make an appearance in a movie on the promise of free Krispy Kreme.

The whole reason I liked the OG Tron was because it was corny as hell. It was ground-breaking for its time, but it still looked like they were stuck in an Atari.

I'll go see the new one, but I'll be watching it as its own film. You can't reproduce the classics.

Happy 4th to my jamungo FAM!!!!

no matter how much i would like to think i'm indifferent, i had to smile when i heard Lohan got 90 days.

I would smile if I thought she would serve more than a handful of those 90 days...

Also, she deserves more than 90 days. Herbie Fully Loaded murdered a fond childhood memory. That shit deserves some hard time.

A class-act right to the end. Stupid bitch.

Yeah, she actually is going to serve those. This wasn't her sentencing. They revoked her parole. She is going to jail. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.
