it’s innocuous commonplaces taken as “offensive” by paranoid morons.

Yes , that’s a better answer. You supply the left jab , I deliver the straight right...

I wasn’t joking about Dell legal...

That patent troll mentality of Apple that anything and everything begins and ends with apple and that they can patent something as imbecilic as not having sharp corners to make tossing the device in your pocket easier and less painful really annoys me... Apple didn’t invent the computer or the microprocessor ... Their desktop OS is a UNIX variant since I think V9.something , the phone and tablet are just the same device shrunk... and they destroyed the usefulness of the portable MP3 player by making it only capable of getting content through iTunes. I’m putting music on a USB memory stick right now ,, only $12 and it works better with my car stereo than ANY iPod at any price.

I like their toys ,, they’re good but they are nothing earthshattering ,, just fine tuned and artsy versions of existing products ,, like comparing a Porsche (apple) to a Chevy (Samsung) ... I make money on Apple ,, to me that is the only reason to care about them.. I buy used GSM iPhone 3gs’s (and higher) and ship them overseas where people are really into this “gotta have the apple logo” crapola...

Such as Apple's Earth-shattering magnetic laptop connector technology, which was hyped as being on the same level of innovation as magnetic levitation and tokamak fusion, but which is actually nothing more than an artsy version of a magnetic connector found on old cheap chinese-made rice cookers.
