The RDF generators are affecting you all.
I think I'm spotting a trend here:
1-4 months til an expo, everyone is open-minded. Someone submits a "tip" or "insider-info" and people discuss it intelligently, look for and find information that supports it, and generally try and explain the idea, if it has any merit.
Then a sort of paradigm-shift occurs from the 30 day mark up til the night before EXPO. It increases with intensity, until half the forum is accusing the other half of being a liar, rumor-mongerer, sh*thead, immature, whatever.....
Whereas a post would normally say "Wow, it would be great if Apple did that!" it now would say: "Member X" is a liar. He could never have info because of "Z". A rumor almost identical to his was seen on site "Q". I have compared ALL of his posts, and they are inconsistent. Besides, everyone knows that if Apple doesn't produce a "iGiveASh*t" to keep up with the "WinZ" they will go bankrupt faster than you can type USB2.
LOL GIVE ME A BREAK!
Could the RDF generators be scaling up and releasing excess energy that makes some of you a little too trigger happy? I see a new post like Lymph's and I think "Oh boy, they're gonna tear this poor guy to shreds!"
Let's face it, if a poster with a "tip" went so far as to post his scanned NDA, an Apple Employee badge, Chiat's new gizmo pictures, AND a picture of Steve Jobs napping in his office, he would be DE-PANTSED and ridiculed. Yeah, let me risk my career for that.
Everybody just needs to cool out.
