Yeah, I heard Gore was appointed to Apple's Board of Directors. My question is 'Why?'. What does Al Gore bring to the party? He has no technical savvy

Oh Yeh??? He said he invented the internet for crying out loud! Would a left wing politician lie???

Contentious Objector, it is a play on words NOT a refrence to the Vietnam War!

You got contentious right but you messed up on refrence.

Actually you messed up in more ways than one...

They are now, as they are linked on an official Apple Computing website.

So obviously apple computer doesn't have a problem with this nor thinks it to be in bad taste.

You know, I'm wondering. How does Algore reconcile his enviromental concerns with the fact that those evil PC's made by Apple use electricity, which uses oil or coal in many power plants; also Apple computers use PLASTIC for casings and many, many parts, which also uses OIL and that evil ELECTRICITY again for manufacturing; and it requires people who burn up ELECTRICITY in the manufacturing process which burns that evil OIL. What a hypocrite he must be!

"Bush Demands Recount In Gore's Board Election"

Their humor is in line with the quality of their product.

"Yeah, I heard Gore was appointed to Apple's Board of Directors. My question is 'Why?'. What does Al Gore bring to the party? He has no technical savvy, he's not a flambouyant personality, he definitely polarizes the company's appeal, and he is not well connected in the industry."

But - but - Gore invented the internet. Doesn't that count?

Why would you call us "lazy"? It is the job of the poster to post the article or information - not a link. We archive articles not links. The the poster then hangs around to reply on "his" (her) thread. Good grief.

While I am no fan of Bush, I figured this would be of interest to the rest of you

I'm a Bush fan - and the CrazyAppleRumors.com parody did not trash him. It was a spoof about Gore's nomination to the Apple Board of Directors, but apparently it went right over your head. Perhaps you should avoid late night television shows, humor magazines, comedy clubs and The Onion.

He has no technical savvy

He invented the Internet, for gosh sakes. The whole Internet, the Hardware layer, the Network layer, the protocols, the sockets, the Apps, the FTP servers, the web sites, gopher, e-mail, =gasp= everything.

How could they not want him?
