Noisy, self involved, narcissistic, and just to precious for words. And I don't like the iPad ad, either.

Thus blandly making the point that all eCrap, regardless of manufacturer, has a projected lifespan which exceeds that of its packaging by approximately a minute.

It'll certainly be amusing to watch Steve and the Bloatmeisters at Adobe slug it out. In general, watching people seethe and flux over ubiquitous but inferior software is reminiscent of an extended family where a terribly handsome, utterly charming…

Flash is a CPU hog, and my logs show it crashing OS X systems more frequently than any other single cause. Nor is Adobe's laziness (though I'd call it the typical smug self righteous inertia of the successful fat bully) really in doubt. CS4 is…

"Quicken Essentials for Mac is the first Quicken product to take full advantage of the Mac operating system and development platform," said Aaron Patzer, vice president and general manager of Intuit?s Personal Finance Group. Given that Intuit h…

This is nothing more or less than corporate enforcement of religiously mandated shame in the name of profit. There's never been a better time to loudly boycott Apple, an organization which clearly can no more "Think Different" than any other prof…

Admittedly among other things, I've just read a sports-commentator description of the content of two ads. The mind boggles. 1. Advertisement is excrement. Thus far, the English language has had no need for a word to describe the exegesis of fe…

Disgusting. Apple/AT&T just lost my family's 5 iPhones/accounts. I refuse to support a closed platform that enforces censorship. One Nation, Under Shame.

Here we have another post that plays "he said/she said" without bothering to evaluate the content of any of the statements quoted. Like most political coverage, this isn't journalism - it's textual bulimia. The writer scans some press releases and…

Snark, unrestrained viciousness, inarticulate rage, and a high level of background toxicity are all the way of the web, which makes it difficult to politely and sincerely criticize anything with the intent of making valid points that might lead to i…

Oh gosh, a free single-purpose cripple chained to heavily DRMd Amazon-only content, with an ugly monochrome e-ink display that requires an external light source, and which offers no WiFi, only a dedicated 3GS connection that will talk only to Amazon…

$5-7 billion. That's AT&T exec bonuses for, what, 5 years? How many jets does AT&T own? What's their total value? How much have they spent on lobbying Congress in the past 10 years? Can't they just double the length of the gratuitou…

AT&T has a long and truly heinous history of everything from individual customer ripoffs to policies that are hard to encompass without resorting to phrases like "crimes against humanity." In a country where corporations routinely buy elected…

Now would be a good time to recall AT&T's early attempts to carve long distance phone service into a series of warring ghettos, and all the "we only want what's best for everyone" arguments they made at the time. "Preserving the open characte…

It's good to see a corporation slap a shill, apparently valuing overall integrity more than the short-term bottoms line. However, the terrible writing in the correspondence quoted above is creepy - the stuff of aphasia.

"Which is sleazier, AT&T or Verizon?" This is a debate only a parasitologist could love.

"But how often will you want to zoom into the screen?" Check out a graph of the demographic shift occurring in the US as the baby boomers age. Shortly, but bulk of computer users will be people with fading vision, arthritic hands, and other issu…

Most Windows users are still running XP and Microsoft's official upgrade path from XP to 7 is "buy a new computer"... I was going to say "you do the math," but no math is required, is it?
