rip steve jobs

Ironicaly the first virus only worked on an apple. It was transferred via floppy.

Yeah that was when 95% of personal computers were Apples. See my point?

RIP Steve Jobs. You died much too zune.

Yet with all that, you still don't know how to use the spell check.

And? At least I don't waste money on a bullshit product.

I seem to recall your Mac having the same issue, many, many times.

If I'm on my laptop, I don't have anything misspelled. On my phone.. That is another matter.

Let's clarify this forever. Programmers don't target an OS with 8% of users on it. Mac OS isn't popular enough to merit the work involved in writing a virus for it. It isn't like Mac OS is an amazingly secure OS.

Sad day for all tech fans even if they don't know why. I grew up using an Apple IIc, then a 2e. Steve Jobs and Wozniak dared to challenge the great IBM and its clones to do something different. A LOT of people are glad they did. Those who haven't used anything Apple...they won't get it and don't care.


Sent from my Macbook Pro.

Funny how their challenge didn't include a damn color monitor, a floppy drive or a mouse with more than one button.

I ran a GIS lab for credits, I had one 286 that would do everything and a bunch of these little macs that barely worked. After a semester, software upgrades made them pretty much non-functional for what we used in the lab. Somehow or another it was IBM's fault, or so I was told. Right.

And I also worked at apple when I lived an CA. I worked as a temp, and built and maintained conveyers and other equipment. Out of 5 people I was the only one who applied for an opening when it came up, and was told that they couldn't hire me because they needed more minorities to comply with company policy. Then they grabbed a random chicano from the floor who didn't know crap and gave him the job out of the blue. His first assignment was to let me go specifically.

When I left i reminded him that he better not use the product elevator until they set the brakes, and that I never got a chance to put the new ones on and test them. As I was clocking out I started hearing crashes and shattering crap from the floor, and smiled. learn english bitch! Hahaha!

LOL @ steve jobs and his aids infested self being anything great.

Mac and gaming.... I agree

Every PC I have had has worked perfectly fine, games great. Never had a virus, or any other type of issues.
Besides i can spend 1000 less or i can spend the same amount of money i would on a "topline" Mac and come out with a better pc, fully water cooled and still have money left over

I haven't had ANY virus protection at all on my workstation for the last 4 years, and I have yet to get any malicious virus. I'm just careful when I click on. Mac's are great for browsing and other casual things. But very limited when it comes to work computers, or production systems. And gaming is laughable.

Regardless of the cause, I'm concerned with the effect of having a computer that operates the way I expect it to after forking out the money for it.

Ya, he said in his commencement speech at Stanford that getting fired "freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life" and (either said or implied) that he might not have come up with the stuff he'd come up with if he hadn't been fired.

Yeah I listened to that whole thing also. I respect the guy a lot, he is a true example of American ingenuity and vision.

[Nash B.]

Well, Steve Jobs apologized for his errors afterwards, so something tells me he was the one who made the mistake, but I have no idea.
