- davin510, on 10/10/2007, -9/+43Digg hate's God. Apple's the devil. Digg loves Apple. IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!!! =P
- streak, on 10/10/2007, -7/+37What's so odd about that price? After all, the Apple logo is an apple with a bite out of it. Never heard that story?
- Sware, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27"Upgradable to 16K RAM Chips"
One step closer to playing BioShock. - gropo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18I fail to recall the part of Revelations where the Number of the Beast is revealed as "Six hundred three score and six, and sixty-six U.S. cents"
- haski, on 10/10/2007, -1/+19$666 was Woz's idea.
- davidave, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18i think he's referring to the story of man's fall from grace...very biblical
- ripstuntz, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17By the way, I called the phone # and it's a fax line. Don't even bother.
- chad78, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15No, Job was not sent to toil aimlessly. Job was tested. God told Satan that Job would worship him no matter what. Satan said "Oh yeah? Let me take a crack at him!" God said go ahead, just don't kill him. And Satan did. Job didn't know why all these bad things were happening to him, (his kids died, his livestock died, his servants died, all of his earthly possessions were destroyed, he got very sick - covered in boils, and his friends kept telling him it was his fault. His wife told him to curse God and die., but regardless, Job said "The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, blessed be the name of the Lord." and he said, "Though he slay me, yet will I trust Him." (Refering to God, of course.) In the end, God restore to Job everything that he had lost, (his kids were still dead, but he got the same number of new kids. BTW, his kids were adults when they died - it says they had their own houses.) And "his end was better than the first." Nothing about toiling aimlessly. He sat in ashes and picked his boils while his friends argued about why God was letting this happen to him for most of the book. No hard work - just pain and depression. But, again, it's a happy ending. Job even gets to talk to God for a while - like in person.
- jandsroberts, on 10/10/2007, -3/+16Includes 4K of RAM
- ilkeryoldas, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14forbidden fruit
- 1iProd, on 10/10/2007, -3/+14It's Sir Isaac Newton. You know, like how he came up with the idea of gravity when an apple fell out of a tree.
- ECas123, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13Did you wake up today and say "I want people to hate me today"?
- toxicityj, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11holy *****! NO WAY!
- championchap, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10With a name like 1337d0Od, you can bet the answer is a yes.
- j0ew00ds, on 10/10/2007, -3/+11What is Hate's God?
- Koski, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8I mean, this is fun and I love Apple, but hasn't this been on the front page like 99 times by now?
- MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8It's a price not even the devil can refuse.
- vulapine, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7"so he sold his sole and thats why he's fat now."
With no bottom on your shoe you can't walk around much.
Less excercise= weight gain. - plizard, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8the should have hired an editor (first sentence)
- inigomntoya, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Thanks for doing the research on that for us.
I wonder what would happen if there was a phone based digg effect on a single phone number... - KibibyteBrain, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Anyone who knows Woz knows he did this. He does all these "pranks"...that aren't really pranks by any other definition than his. He would probably have sold the damn thing at a loss to do this...
- eokthecow, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Just saying, that's not the point of that story at all. Job was a faithful, hardworking person who had everything in the world that he could ever want. Satan and God got into an argument over him. Satan implied that because God had given Job everything, it only made sense that he was faithful. God countered that Job would be faithful even without all of his gifts and material goods, so he let Satan torment Job to prove it. In the end, the lesson learned is that righteous people can suffer unjustly and that sin is not always the cause of suffering. Based on it's style, it's pretty much assumed (by most, not all) that this was just a poetic metaphor, and not considered history. In fact, the early Hebrews probably adapted this story from an Egyptian or Sumerian story.
- hurben, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7so should've you

- MacParrot, on 10/10/2007, -3/+7It's in the new George Bush edited version. The Clinton version was also $666.66, but that was before taxes and a mandatory health insurance reduction.

- ECas123, on 10/10/2007, -3/+7Theres a story behind that?
- Reaperman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Woz had a thing for repeating digits, and $666.66 was the closest one to a fair market price, only later did they realize the bible connotation. (he put out a book called "iWoz" not too long ago, with lots of cool stories like this one)
- MacParrot, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5He fished too? Was there nothing that Woz could not do?
- 177emc2, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5it's the mark of the beast

- projectstartrek, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4For all of the comments about Apple's logo, look at what their logo was during that time period. It's on the ad.
