All he is interested in is his bottom line, and floating boatloads of your money down his candy apple river--just like the Other Guy. Granted, the iPod is revolutionary--however the DRM shackles that Apple puts on your wrist with iTunes is unacceptable. This is not freedom, or technological enlightenment. I refuse to be a slave to his products. If it cant play MP3, its not for me. Put that in your OS and smoke it.
    OMG. Yes!!!

    I don't 'hate' Macs.... I just think that "Apple Sucks BIG time".

    And them Apple users are always... ugghhh... whatever.
    I completely agree on your point that Apple wants CLOSED hardware... and that sucks.
    Also agree on your view of Jobs.
    MacZealots are a crazy bunch.

    The best is when a friend of mine told me that he runs OSX, so he's "really running Unix!"...
    I just had to laugh in his face.
    Made him feel bad.
    But he deserved it.
    Unix!

    Well he is "technically" right since OSX _is_ based off of FreeBSD (my neighbor, one of the founders of FreeBSD is also the lead project manager for OSX and beyond...). The thing is, a windowing environment is _not_ unix, and if you do not have access to the unix internals, you are just running another windows box...

    I had read a /. post about this... and it was something very similar to what you just said.
    That OSX was based on FreeBSD.

    And your neighbor is one of the founders of FreeBSD?
    Erm, with all due respect (and joking between us);
    I think there's something in the water of your area that makes people geeks.
    You.
    Your neighbor.
    I can only imagine all the other people...
    HAHAH!

    We can start our own Chuck Norris-like jokes about AirBozo...

    AirBozo doesn't use a keyboard... he crosses the cables in direct binary sequence...

    AirBozo doesn't use a monitor... he reads the video output signal on a oscilloscope.

    AirBozo doesn't format drives... they format themselves when looked upon.

    HAHAHAA BUahahahAHHAAa
    Sorry guys... too much AutoCAD for me today.

    HAHAH!

    In my neighborhood of ~20 houses, 5 of us are full fledged geeks, 2 are wannabe's. My SO found out how many geeks we have living in Boulder Creek when she was a recruiter. She met so many people living up in our area working in the tech field it scared her (she is geekaphobic)

    Yeap... that's our aBozo!

    AirBozo doesn't use a keyboard... he crosses the cables in direct binary sequence...
    Who needs input devices? I just lick my fingers and hold the bare PS/2 cables
    AirBozo doesn't use a monitor... he reads the video output signal on a oscilloscope.
    Back in the late 90's I had a direct connection to my optic nerve wired to a s-video connector hidden under my hairline. Going in for the direct audio connection next month...
    AirBozo doesn't format drives... they format themselves when looked upon.
    Hell I used to think HD's saw me coming and instantly developed stiction...
    HAHAHAA BUahahahAHHAAa

    See Crimson? It's not just me :p

    ...I want a shot at this:

    AirBozo doesn't ride ponies, he rides pwnies.

    Ok, i'll leave it to the pros.

    lets just cut out the middle man here... Airbozo IS a computer. not only that, he has an unlimited optical connection that bypasses ISP's and connects directly to the internet itself. how? the connection runs to the center of the earth and fans out to every computer in the world.

    Airbozo doesn't have time to love. He's too busy trying to figure out what this whole '42' business is all about.

    (Hope that one's not too obscure... )
