Dude...to wish death upon another human is an atrocity. Get a life man. - Rangoth, on 10/12/2007, -4/+46Soon they will weigh less then Lindsey Lohan
- stoops, on 10/12/2007, -9/+50I'm generic too man, awesome.
- ohmar, on 10/12/2007, -15/+44WOW!!!
@macsrpoop, you are so witty! Taking the name of one of the most successful businessmen in the past decade, and turning his name into a vulgar instult insinuating a form of masterbation. That is so amazing. Surely you could design a better computer and operating system and sell it to the masses of computer illiterates (no offense to those who do not understand computers, there are many things that i do not understand that other do. It is a fact of life). With that, macsrpoop, get a life and let people use the machines that they want to. Im not going to slam you if you are using Windows or Linux or Mac OS. It really doesnt matter to me what you use. how can it matter to you what others use? Also, if you dont want to hear about Macs, dont open the comments page and read the comments for the article entitled "Macbooks in Black in White this Tuesday," because i am pretty sure that there is a high chance that you will not be interested and no one will post any comments that will interest you either. Read the pages you like, dont polute the pages you dislike. - JDex, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19"17-inch MacBook Pro, the initial units of which were to arrive in customer hands this week, have been temporarily delayed. After encountering a minor quality control issue with production of the laptops recently that has since been remedied"
I can't help but hope that the thermal paste issue is the one they've remedied. - fuelvolts, on 10/12/2007, -5/+19will you adopt me? I wish I could magically make money!
jk - I want one too! - DarkSideofMoon, on 10/12/2007, -7/+20@macsrpoop
I don't know what you're doing on Digg, man... you should really be moderating all the comments on your blog. You're bound to get more than zero posts sooner or later... - recover82, on 10/12/2007, -5/+17well, piss.
i'll be going into debt by the end of the month. - captaindan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12You know what the best part about this thread is? I didn't even see macsrpoop's comment because I blocked him ages ago. That's gotta be digg's best feature.
- fanboydcs, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14apple making a black laptop would be interesting, good old Pismos and wallstreets, was never fond of black in the past though..
- zezak, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10@macsrpoop: I don't care what you think of Macs, but you offend me greatly by wishing that Steve Jobs would die of cancer. You are a cruel and disgusting person.
- Nanx, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10No, no, you missed one:
The Red Hot Chili Pepper's release of "Stadium Arcadium" Nintendo E3 Conference MacBook Release = Best Day Ever.
**Oh, and macsrpoop, you were the kid in school everyone beat up, right? 'Cause you're a douche? - deepsub, on 10/12/2007, -7/+15Not everyone.... just you.
- brandizzle, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11I hate to tell you...but nobody really cares. This one made it to the front page and the other one didn't. Well now that sucks, but at least one made it.
So stop caring about who gets the news to the front page just care that the news at least got to the front page. - sl4x0r, on 10/12/2007, -10/+16your post needs more cowbell!!!
by cowbell i mean exclamation marks!!! - puffarthur, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I hope they have a huge stock of black macbooks because those are gonna sell like crazy (like the black ipod nanos). I know I'm gonna get one in sexy black
- GeekStarPilot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7@macsrpoop
I certainly hope that you never have the tragic misfortune of either contracting and dieing from cancer or seeing a friend or relative die from cancer.
I unfortunately have seen a close relative take three years to die from cancer and I can tell you I would never wish that upon even my most despised enemy.
I hope that you can take a little bit of time to making some more well thought out replies. - Salvo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Colorware are Resellers who offer a value-added painting service.
You can buy Coloured iPods though them, hell, you can buy coloured Dells and Mac Mini's Too.
The only thing they have to do with Apple are that they sell Apple Products, and presumably, they have Apple Qualified Technicians to dismantle and reassemble the hardware. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+11*transfers $1200 to checking account* Can't wait!
- PrototypeRob, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11http://www.colorwarepc.com/products/select_macbook.aspx
- phore, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6i just did the exact same thing yesterday when i found out it was coming out on tuesday. Making sure there is enough in my checking account so i can get one on tuesday.
- StoneWolf, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Maybe they're waiting for Woodcrest?
- brentz0r, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9ha, i second that
- 7diesel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5that macpoopkid was the first one i blocked. never thought i'd use the feature until now.
- lollerskates, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5In reply to ohmar:
"That is so amazing. Surely you could design a better computer and operating system and sell it to the masses of computer illiterates (no offense to those who do not understand computers, there are many things that i do not understand that other do. It is a fact of life)."
Err, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Woz was the one who did most of the work in making the first Apple, if you were implying that Jobs made the Apple all by himself. - Venkman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4You can think that one OS isn't better than the other all you want, but I'll continue to think differently about it. I prefer and think that Mac OS X is better than XP mainly because OS X, "just works," especially when I add new devices or stream content to another device.
It took me three minutes to get up and running to stream music from my XP machine to my iMac. I just had to launch iTunes on both machines, enable sharing and I was done. I spent over 2 hours trying to get my XBox 360 and XP machine to see eachother before I called it a day and gave up.
Now tell me how I had an easier time getting a Mac to see an XP machine than I did getting a 360 to see an XP machine?
And on your comment telling people not to be ignorant. You state that OS X isn't the best, and it's just nice for design work. Isn't that statement and the others you made a bit...ignorant? - CyberTroll, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I predict the price will be about $1200, for a core duo and about 1000 for a core solo, I think it will be a disappointing product release. (and I am a fan-boy, better to be a mac fan-boy than a windows lemming)
- abstraxion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3OK, here's my question: when should I arrive at the Apple store to try it out and maybe buy one? In the morning, or the afternoon after it is announced, or what?
- drizek, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9Maybe you should wait till AFTER the product is released and AFTER you read the reviews to wire that huge sum of money into your account. Chances are, youre going to come on here and bitch about how the cpu whines or how it has overheating issues or some other issue that plagues any laptop put into production.
- lollerskates, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5It's not segregation. It's the black iBook standing up for his rights.
- millixaw, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5More like "Wallstreet" PowerBook black :-)
- briangig, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5I find this food to be rather shallow and pedantic.
- Jonny5alive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+12Your waiting for the MBP that gives blowjobs?
It's a freaking computer, how exciting are you expecting it to get? - jer2eydevil88, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4@ IQ70
Isn't everyone at one point in their life? Some of us "School Kids" are paying tuition with our money and not able to even get an Amex card with that kind of line of credit available to us. Heck if you wanna co-sign for me I'll be willing to take your advice. - JuliusErving, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2looks like macsrpoop has been banned, and deservingly so =^D http://digg.com/users/macsrpoop
- millixaw, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3When new Intel-based hardware comes out, Apple tends to immediately stop selling off the PowerPC equivalent from their Apple Store online. It will be interesting to see if it's the iBook or 12" PowerBook (or both?!) that get taken off the Apple store site once these are announced.
- yanked, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Wow, is that comment above the most negative diggs ever? Has macsrpoop found the perfect recipe, anti-apple plus incredibly tasteless joke about a cancer survivor? Do others know a more voted-down comment recently?
- antoniojvr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Well, here we are. Tuesday May 9. Where is my mac!!!
- radixus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm hoping the MacBooks come in black and white . . . . If they released the MacBook in a Black glass then it would match my black iPod :) They could use some new colors in the product lines.
- Amplix, on 10/12/2007, -7/+9blocked :)
- evilspoons, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Err, I seem to recall a day when pretty much every laptop WAS black. I have a black HP laptop. My grade 7 computers teacher had a black Powerbook nearly a decade ago. What's the big deal? Oh wait, this time it will be *glossy* black so it's easy to scratch!
(Full laptop body stick-on protector, iPod Nano style anyone? No? How about a bigass silicon tube thing?) - Laughingman234, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Holy crap! Next week...E3...a new laptop...and I get to go HOME?! Even with finals this will be the best week EVER!
- Anth, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2If they put a solo in the MB lineup, they'll need to come down to $899. I dont see them moving a lot of $1000 Core Solo 'books.
- MidasMouse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3I just left the Columbus, OH Apple store, and there is only 1 iBook of each size on display, and those are in the corner. As a note, there is only 1 G5 PowerMac as well. I'm excited!! Now i just need a Verizon PDA phone to sync with it! :-(
- redrighthand, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Ill take a 13" black
but for a 200 dollar premium over the white one with a 60 gig drive?!?! - David1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Er...where were they?
- chad78, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Okay - it's TUESDAY - and there is NO MACBOOK
Yet another dumb ass Mac rumor on the front page of Digg.
I'm a Mac Fanboy, but this is f'ing ridiculous. Apple will release stuff when they are ready to release stuff. Stop this garbage guessing! - veza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1just a rumours? :(
- rspeed, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I'm considering de-blocking macsrpoop just to give his comment a little extra nudge down.
Edit: Looks like I can't de-block him. :( -
