I'm so mad I'm venting on here. I bought an ipod two weeks ago, and today the battery decided to have a melt down on me. It won't turn on and the thing wreaks of battery acid. Fucking Apple and their shit products.
Don't ever talk about Apple products that way.
Well let's see, their Ipods break all the time and surrender features to make them look prettier.
And oh yeah, their computers are underpowered pieces of shit that cost three times what they should, and they have ugly software thats basically BSD beaten with an ugly stick and given drugs until it suffered permanant brain damage.
I mean come on. The Mac Pro costs $2500 and it comes with an Nvidia GeForce 7300 graphics card? My computer has one of those and it cost me all of $50. Oh yeah, a 250GB Serial Drive - in a time when those things run under $100. I bought mine for $80.

Got to agree...I paid $290 for my computer, about 2 years ago, which can (and has) outrun my friend's brand new MacPro...in everything except Mac programs...which I can't install on my computer anyways...
as for iPods...my Creative MediaJukebox cost me about $120 for a 40Gig and in many competitions between our computers, I have transferred music faster. Not to mention, he's had to purchase two iPods because of malfunctions, in the time that I've owned one Creative, which when the operating system failed once, I was able to send to the company and have them return with all my music saved to the NEW harddrive of the NEW creative they had replaced for me...
So, not only has my computer and MP3 player outperformed the Apple products...but I have recieved better tech support from the companies/websites I purchased parts/my MP3 player from than any of my Apple-product fan friends...
I have a 60Gb ipod w/video, a dual 1Ghz G4 desktop tower($200 w Apple LCD and Apple 17" CRT), (which replaced my G4 Tower, which replaced my G3 imac, which replaced my Power Macintosh system.) Also have a P4 desktop runnix Redhat, and a Toshiba Satalite P4 laptop running XP (and a P4 running Windows 2000 at the office.) I have had MUCH less probelms with my apple products, the only one I have bought new was the ipod. I have had a few strange problems with my ipod since last months itunes update, but they have been minor. Every manufacturer has an occasional defective product, yours was one, that does not mean Apple makes shit products.
Oh no it does, because a-lot of my friends have had problems with their iPods too. My iRiver H10 served me loyally until it got soaked in a rain storm.
In fact I might add that my one friend *predicted* that it would break.
