THE NEW IPOD AWESOME

Holy crap! Apple just announced a new ipod shuffle that is absolutely ridiculously cool! It's only 1.62inches long and half an ounce, holding up to 240 songs (1GB). Basically, you can now clip a badge-size ipod to your sleeve and go. Oh, and it's 80bucks. Pretty neat. Say what you will about Apple products, but there's no denying they are pushing us forward full throttle! I'm going to have to buy one.

You are so anti-technology its funny. You lose it its your fault, buddy! Don't blame Apple! Having an ipod is not going to bring 1984 into fruition - the Bush Administration is doing that for you instead.

I think its awesome. Perfect for the gym or jogging. Or, for a flight. One less thing you have to lug around. Would you prefer it to be a large boom box?

Stop moving into the future with your heels imbedded into the ground, man! You're far too young to be such a grumpy old man.

pushing us forward?

yep..

same way starbucks is pushing forward the coffee industry.

at least they provide a certain consistency with their products.

They're cool and trendy. Who cares if it has less features and half the memory of competitor's products.

it's sooo well designed..

There will be no PC vs Mac discussions and/or arguments here, buddy. If you want to bash Mac, fine, but you better include all the shitty things about PC.

I am constantly astounded how PC people and MAC people loathe one another. You'd think it was a personal attack on each other's grandmother. If we weren't fighting each other over money, religion and politics we'd be waging wars based on operating systems. Ride into battle waving the flag of Microsoft! The new Crusades is upon us! Cleanse the Earth of the heathenous Mac users!!!!! (and vice versa). In the end, all computers fucking suck and have problems.

i just can't wait for the Apple 'Chip",..you can have it sugically implanted into one of your eardrumms and the other in your optic nerve. That'll be coool,..then I'll never lose it,......all the while they record everything I do with thier data base so they can learn more about me and recomend music and movies and what kind of buying tendancies I have, so they can mail me junk mail every day.(bc no one has a problem with that kind of intelligence gathering....) hehe

I'd rather have a mac brain chip than a pc brain chip. I'd have to reboot my head twice a day! no thank you.

oh wait..
the mac brain chip wasn't fast enough.. so we'll use the pc brain chip, but encase it in white plastic, charge double and pretend its different.

but you can dance really "wacky" with it, and it helps you digest tofu.
