Ahh...

But they might see your wife!

She gives a new meaning to...

"Gold Digger"

Yeah... because...

...after he receives his 'back-door-entry', the bloke giving it will think twice!

Yellow.

What does 'Yellow' stand for?

Player_16
Pirate

Kinda cartoon like.

If you look at most cartoons, the lower jaw doesn't move.

Should've used Captain Jack Sparrow -with that head scarf.

Player_16

You gotta buy 'em...

...to burn 'em

Player_16

Left on a high.

Indeed; he left on a high. His last mark is his bio that will soon be out. I hope what he instilled in the company continues no matter how 'closed' it seems to everyone else. It keeps the world wondering.

You know, I do like Apple and all what SJ has accomplished...

...but there are times when it just irks me to know that there are people out there with way too much free time on their hands, incapable of thinking for themselves. Talk about riding the coat-tails of SJ just to sell your product? That's shameful. Makes me ashamed to admit owning Apple products knowing there are SJ worshippers of that ilk out there behaving like ... with that creepy glazed look.

Close the drapes; I'm not getting up today.

iPod Touch 3g... S**T YEAH!

I would be so on it. My Motorola Razor is sitting in its metal, velvet-lined box waiting for the day I retire my 2G iPhone...

...unless the iPhone 5 comes out.

Player_16

Apple is yet to take ....

.... security lessens which Microsoft took 10 years to complete.

There, fixed it for ya!

No chickens...

...were 'injured' in this event.

Take it easy!

He promoted himself up the ladder. Now he doesn't NEED an excuse to take time off; he just goes. Maybe he wants to manage the building of his new house.

Player_16

This is why...

...you don't put phones in your top shirt pocket.

Player_16

All hail on Toshiba for a firmware update!

There, fixed that for ya.

Player_16
Alert

YaHoo!...

...should do this.

.

...but they won't. The interweb would be so much cleaner.

Player_16

Microsoft did something similar...

...with that big-ass table table of theirs. Someone placed a camera on top and it 'sucked' the photos out and like 'spilled' underneath the camera ready to be sorted - which was kinda cool.

Remember when...

... the iPad first came out and people moaned that it was too big to fit in your pocket?

.

Well, well; how times changed.

Player_16

Unlimited...

...But, to a point.

Player_16

Needs colour.

Does it come in white?

Recalled... in transit.!

1: Real the article.

2: Then source the article from another source that's NOT the competition.

Turn the trucks around and take'em back.

RIM realised that a faulty batch went out and made an effort to intercept.

Don't be a tool.

'...Microsoft poured $150 million into a struggling Apple...'

'But this is ancient history.' - The sentence is a condensed reference and wasn't really meant to be taken out of context. Next time, IF you care to, let it absorb into your skull.

Player_16
WTF?

I too object to this writers labelling & bias stance.

There is another writer (Cade Metz) who throws rubbery barbs at everything 'Apple' on occasion but it never goes to the point of making it personal (Attention grabbing headlines don't count). But to label anyone, no matter what race or tech background 'fanboiz' for buying a particular product without even knowing 'who' they are, within the boundaries of your publication, I deem personal & readably offensive. Also assuming a company for withholding a requested popular product for publicity gains is a low unsubstantiated blow.

I opted to let everyone see my objection instead.

Leave the personal attacks and such to us readers, thanks.

Humm...

I think not.

Earthquake.

Don't forget, they too had an earthquake just a couple of weeks before Japan's.

It is incredible...

...how a company that makes only ONE common popular phone can make many news agencies and people around the world go ape-shit about a 2nd soon-to-be-released promised colour of the same common popular phone.

POWER!!

(Cheap advertisement)

Player_16

I noticed...

...that you didn't include the 'brick-&-mortar' Apple Stores.

Player_16

Ay!

His credits good! No problem.

Hey, I have an idea...

... why don't YOU and Lewis Mettier get together and compare notes to see who has the most convoluted, less-comprehending, personally attacking bit of writing MESS the both of you can come up with that will cause everyones head to explode and put The Reg out of it's misery of having to print your 'unrelated to the article' garbage!

Then combine.

Murder...

...is game over.

Slapping is just an excuse for revenge which lives on.

Player_16
WTF?

If you're gonna comment on an article...

.

...try READING IT and COMPREHENDING IT FIRST!..

This happened in 2004 - some 7 years ago! Where are you going with this blocking subscriptions, 30% cut, and force sources to charging more crap!

Hey...

.

...Didn't Steve Balmer say something like that?

Player_16

Remember the Beatles...

Apple Corps and Apple Computer (now Apple Inc.) over competing trademark rights?

MS Office 2004

Yes I'm still using it. I can't see why I need to get all heavy-duty with a 'word' program if all it does is letter & numbers -with the occasional picture/graphic thrown in.

I'm wondering if Marathon and Oni -that I haven't finished yet, will still run?

They seem to run on anything!

Who's the gift for again?

You or her?

Magic Trackpad

I was gonna say this to replace the lack of a proper trackpad until you said 'blue-tooth is optional'.

Player_16
Unhappy

Aww! ..What a sore loser!

.

Kinda wish it was you, huh?

Player_16

To put a finer point on it...

..."do you really think we'd have seen 'Android phones' if it wasn't for the 'iPhone'?"

It just works!

'But in principle, it worked out of the box.'

Well you know why it didn't work out, don't cha...

...you weren't layin' in bed.

Next time, bring a mattress and/or a sleepin' bag.

Hey, it's tax payers money!

Gov. give them a budget; order the high-end gear to the nearest penny for IF they don't, they'll be criticised for not spending what was given to them and they would be given less the next time around.

I'm from a neighbouring country but we want to be like the northern, big island. (Tassie),

Player_16

REALLY...

I think they were talking about currently, proven tablets, not next year, experimental tablets.

I just brought my GF a new laptop.

You bought her a 'overpriced, £1800, generic' laptop. Yep, that says it all.

You'll get some tonight!
