Anyone who takes an insinuation as a statement of fact is foolish. You can try to deduce what is meant by the an obscure statement but to draw erroneous conclusions that were not explicitly stated is not Apple or Jobs's shortcoming.
Those are blanket statements. As I stated, it's unbalanced, but that doesn't mean that they go unnoticed. There is no one on this site that is more pro-Apple than Apple ][, in my opinion, and just a couple days ago I've seen several "pro-Apple" posters here take him to task over some of the stuff he said. I don't think I replied to him because what I would have stated was already addressed.
I wouldn't call obscure, it wasn't a parable left to interpretation. It was in plain English, but people change their minds and views all the time, it's not a shortcoming, it's human nature.
I questioned your reading comprehension. Again, if thumbing up the exact same 2 sentence statement just minutes earlier wasn't a red flag then I question your ability to know what is or isn't reasonable when one states something for or against Apple, Samsung, et al. It calls into question your awareness of what is actually being discussed.
This is not dissimilar when Apple announced a 7.85" iPad mini and then people claimed that Steve Jobs stated they'd never make a 7" tablet, even quoting what he said about the current lot of 7" tablets being DOA.
Here we go again with the personal attack.....I did not react the way you wanted and so the attack continues.....
That's not true. If you post something in context and in a reasonable way you're get reasonable responses from reasonable people, but if you jack a thread just to create havoc expect the community to respond in kind.
Oh really?
In a thread about Apple doing Microsoft in the eye via the App store, I posted a comment to the effect it was a bit rich, given the large bailout Microsoft gave Apple when it was on it's knees, and my post was deleted by guess who.

You're right, it wasn't obscure, it was a calculated comment that idiots read too much into.

Questioning your reading comprehension is a personal attack? All we have here is our ability to read, think and write so if you think you're not responsible for your ability (or inability) to read, digest and reply in a text-based forum then you are really don't understand this medium.
I'm not going to give you a pass simply because you cry foul on me pointing out evidence that you dropped the ball on reading comprehension which directly calls into question how you comprehend what is written in other threads. Not once have you said "Oops" or allowed the option of a reasonable person wouldn't outright deny a reasonable comment that is for an Apple competitor to be allowed in this forum despite innumerable examples to the contrary.

Your comment was clearly deleted because it made a foolish claim not because it was against Apple. Your inability to see the difference is what makes your comments so unreasonable and deemed trollish.

My recollection, though it could be flawed, is that I didn't make a 'claim', but merely pointed out the rather discourteous treatment of Microsoft, given the assistance it lent Apple in the past.

I question your reading skills now.....I did not answer or respond the way YOU deemed appropriate and this started this whole little war you have been waging.
It all boils down to my thumbs up to posts i ageed with....you did not like that...then voiced that concern. You had a predefined way you expected me to react. When I didn't the way you expected..... you have gone off an a tirade......I think you're used to getting your own way in things....huh?
I do not have to answer to you about my thumbs up activity. I do no not have to justify or answer to you in any way shape or form.
Just for grins.........how many other thumbs up have you give this much attention to?
Are you a moderator? Thumbs up monitor maybe? But then you hold all people to the same standards huh? I am sure you scruntinize ALL thumbs up right?

You call it assistance without a single mention of why MS made that deal in the first place to buy non-voting preferred stocks that it sold as sold it was allowed per the agreement and you wonder why a mod decided to remove a comment that seems clearly intended to incite and jack the thread.

oh...so your against thread jacking? Like derailing this thread and consuming it with my 2 thumbs ups?

Either you can't admit why I took issue with your unsubstantiated claims or your reading comprehension issues are more severe than I originally thought. But I'm guessing you do know I called you out for making a blanket statement well before you thumbed up the spammer and me using that as example of your poor reading comprehension are is just something you can't address without weaken your position even further so your using that logical fallacy to obscure the truth you foolishly think will somehow go unnoticed.

This is why you keep on with your senseless dribble...

So there it is......that started it all........So where is this post #37 by hdtc anyway? I don't see it....... was it deleted? Are you a moderator? Did you delete it? Who did? So what is the truth then Soli......according to you anyway....do enlighten us......

Liar liar pants on fire!
Post #18 started it. Quickly followed by post #19.
I responded to those unsubstantiated accusations on post #30 before I used your poor reading comprehension as an example that you should check yo' self.
PS: This post is further proof of your poor reading comprehension.

Which happens a whole lot around here.

It happens a lot everywhere but at least with the written word we more accurately evaluate what has been stated and at least try to be accurate.
I believe it if you're speaking for yourself but the truth is many here purposely write inaccuracies to incite others.
