Why I like Apple...see what you think or agree with.

Here is a recorded sound file about what I think seperates Apple from the rest of an industry that I think has "lost its focus and way."

UPDATE

Does Video Help?

what

murbot · January 14, 2004 5:03PM

Wait. You should link to the better content on your site, like the photo of you getting pissed on.

Most people getting pissed on on the internet, are just people copying other people. You on the other hand, have really innovated. That pose is fantastic. You obviously care about the people, not just profits.

Wait a minute... your movie has affected me!

Not bad at all. I agree with most of it, but don't feel like picking it apart now. I love the selection of music, American Beauty is one of my favorite movies. Try to add some video to that too. If it were me, I would find some footage of older macs and go through what Macs have been, to what they have become today. Make it a little more visually stimulating. If you've been an Apple nut for years like me, this would be easier, because you would have tons of old macs that you could shoot video of. Try to work in some of the old ads too. I like the message though.

Dude, go outside and get some fresh air, seriously.

philmaker2004 · January 14, 2004 5:10PM

Which movie is that from? I checked on imdb but didn't get anywhere. Was that Kevin Spacey?

Oh come on, enjoy it...You need some air too judging by that post count.

American Beauty.

And Messiahtosh: I hardly think 487 is a lot of posts. And it's too cold to get fresh air right now. Dang winter.

Aren't you the "Macintosh" that got banned for making those freaky movies?

So you're implying that I be banned now? Jeez, I was just posting a feeling, my thoughts, an emotion, about how Apple sets itself apart and why they are more appreciated by us than the other companies out there...Is that so wrong?

Yes, he is. Murray and I already tried, but our powers are worthless here.

No, I wasn't implying that at all, just asking the question.

I think your views are accurate, but really, did you need to make a recording of it?

murbot · January 14, 2004 5:21PM

Ban for this? Hardly. The fact that the movie has been made public is punishment enough.

ghost_user_name · January 14, 2004 5:25PM

nah, this isn't really ban worthy. As Murray said, his site really is more than punishment enough. Never have I seen such self-deprecation.

It's just kind of become an AI tradition of banning "Macintosh". Kind of a poetic irony I guess.

Adding video soon, sorry for the sound only file...The first two responses were not bad at all. As soon as one negative response came in, all the others poured on. What did I really even do?

i have no idea why everyone is so upset. it seems like baseless meanness to me. sheesh

I think you need to have video footage(or just pictures moving slowly) of apples, apple picking, apple processing, packing, and selling, add some kids in there enjoying a nice apple.

and THEN I will give you a thumbs up.

until then, I will not.

Anyone got two million $$$ so we can air this fine piece of work during the SuperBowl. I'm officially starting a collection.

Just kidding.

Nice work Messiahtosh.
