Apple TV is great!
but apple didnt even really advertise it, well nowhere as near as iphone

if apple actually put it on tv and not on a secret page on their site id guess more people will buy it

Visa stinks, MS is going to extend support for XP even though it is going EOL. Goes to show you that they even know vista sucks! Apple TV is cool. I have modded two of them so far. Bigger HDs and Video Composit mod. I even extended the IR so that the apple tv could be installed in a car and connected to a TV in the dash.

bah everyone has such a huge problem with vista

"oh noes!!! Printer doesn't work!!!! that means it will NEVER work!!!! No i have not heard of the intarweb what a stupid thing to ask!! And who the hell would have honestley head of googonemel"

"ZOMG Security issues ive heard others talk about but dont understand myself!!!! What Antivirus??? INTARWEB EXPLORENEMER??? Why do i need all these fancy extras to use my computer!!!!"

"Whats this UAC thingymabob that keeps popping up????? CONTROL PANEL NOW!!!!! disable?????? Listen why do you have to confuse me with this technical mumbo jumbo??? I just want to use my pc!!!!"

"<Insert generic ironic statement which my seem to make vista sound bad but is actually mocking those that hate it so much because they find it hard to do the simplest things such as operate a mouse>"

So yeah, its not the BEST os ever, xp still rawks as does linux but i still dont see everyones problem.... thats my opinion

from what ive used of it vista actually isnt too bad, yes it has its flaws but its also pretty good if you have one of the working copies it, and btw one of the reasons  it has compatibility probs is because the stuff doesnt have the models of it built to run on vista yet, but then again some things do... in my opinion vista is pretty cool but w/e you ppl think,you can think

on my list of worst tech things though is GWB, wait, thats the past 8 years now, big screw up to the country
wait, nvm hes a E.T. not a robot

XP had all the same problems when it first came out, the reason everything works with it now and it's an decent OS is because M$ has had six years to work out the bugs, which XP still has plenty of...

People just don't like it because they fear change... change is good...
They wanted me to build them a bomb, so I took their plutonium and in turn gave them a shoddy bomb casing full of used pinball machine parts!

I guess, offhand, i'd say the iPod Touch. I mean, yeah, it's like a stripped down iPhone(which is actually a good thing), but it costs more and can hold less than it's predecessor, the iPod Classic(which is not a good thing). Had Apple put in, hell, even a 30 gig drive in the Touch, I would have to retract my statement. And the price makes for quite a large pill to swallow.
