    This is about the man dying. frankly if you don't get how much of a hand that Jobs had on EVERY apple product since his return in 1996 and how much that has changed the entire computer industry.. then your a fucking idiot.

    Mr Prena...

    Again this is about a man dying .. before his time ( frankly Jobs was fairly young.. 56 years old.) and again if you think he had zero to do with the way computers work today .. your a fucking idiot too..


    did apple invent the mouse GUI?..No.. did apple bring it to the masses and market the fuck out of it ( with the permission of xerox) ? YES.

    Did apple invent the smart phone? no.. did apple make it explode in the last 5 years? YES. has apple by many measures beat exxon for total value in the last few months? YES.

    you hate apple hate apple I don;t give a rats ass.. this thread is about a man . a man with a family that has died much too young and frankly before hs time. has some fucking respect. you jack asses.



    I've got over a dozen apple products sitting within 20 feet of me right now .... so does that suddenly make me one of those occupy wall street people??? ... no .. so go fuck yerself.

    you wanna make a thread bashing apple go right the fuck ahead. I made this thread about a man who died.


    I'll take my ban now... email me at clublights@mac.com and let me know for how long.

    Sorry Prena... I jumped your stuff.. WAYYYYYYYYYYY over board. I figured I'd write a new post saying sorry rather then edit my old post.



    Sorry sometimes I'm an asshole... ask my ex-wife.

    No problem.
    Sounded like I was "opinionating" about AAPL and Jobs, but I was just simply stating the AAPL's Fundemental [Analysis]. Nothing positive or negative.

    You called MrPrena an idiot (check that - a "f***ing idiot) for simply being baited into a debate...much like you just did. Hope your day lightens up pal, bc you're definitely outta character.

    RIP Jobs.
    Thanks graves.
    Glad that clublights carefully reread what I wrote afterwards.

    Extrapolation. Critical thinking. Common sense. All sadly missing from this society. Not by accident. By design.

    We need more thought given to self preservation and lot less credit given to tolerance of those who seek to rob this nation of it's freedoms and liberty.

    Kumbaya is for subjects, not free men.
    My question was: What's the problem with buying products from those who have them made elsewhere, or those who are left leaning, or whatever? If it's a good product I'll buy it- I still support my GOP and Conservative lawmakers. Just because Jobs wasn't a "good republican" doesn't mean the things he made and the products his company sells are any worse.

    Let me see if I got this straight.

    Buying/liking Apple products is bad because Steve Jobs was a liberal and a lot of liberals use Apple products?

    But buying an American car (made by UAW workers who's dues are used to fund the extreme left of the Democrat party) is some great act of patriotism?

    Furthermore, as a good American (and a Christian and a capitalist). I should say bad things about a dead super successful capitalist because he happened to vote for Democrats and make products that stupid hipsters use (but also Rush Limbaugh loved)?

    I'm confused (and just how much money has Bill Gates given to Republicans?).
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    Well, this thread has gone off track...

    I pray for the Jobs' family. Steve died too young and by a terrible disease. Just reminds us all that no matter how immortal we think we are, we will all die sooner or later.

    I'm not an Apple fan, but they do have some good products that I use everyday. Steve did change the way the computer game was played.

    I remember watching this movie at an econ class.
    From
    "Thanks Bill [gates]" in front of the screen to a 2nd biggest company in the world is huge accomplishment.

    This one is gonna be a long one kids.. strap in for the ride.... keep your hands and feet inside the car at all times.

    WOW TSO... your so narrow minded your scratch pads must only be an inch wide. and since you didn't seem to get the freakin point the first time around that I said it.... I'll gladly tackle your "list" of the wrongs about Steve Jobs in a new thread.... don't know how to make one?? I'll do it for you after I get done here.....

    This thread.. WAS about memorial to a man that died that in my opinion and at least a few others around here changed the world as we know it...
    What your doing is like me going to your funeral and walking up to Mrs. TSO and saying " I'm not sorry he's dead. he was an asshole." you don't do that shit at the funeral.. you go to the bar down the road with your buddies and call him an asshole. have some fucking class.

    Why doesn't his politics matter in THIS thread??... because politics don't matter when your dead!!! ( unless you live in chicago ... but that's a whole different thread in and of it's self)

    Haven't been here that long, suppose you were singing Ted Kennedy's praises as well.

    The mere fact that you failed to to make any valid challenge to any of facts or opinions but opted to attack the messenger instead serves only to prove there is no there, there. Bragging that you own multiple over-priced Apple products is yet another indicator or the "I've got mine, screw everybody else" mindset.

    Oh by the way, all it takes is one EMPB and your Apples are toast while my Rolex and 69 Chebby will still be running.

    So Since I can see greatness in art I suddenly love Teddy Kennedy and Sarah Brady ? WHAT THE FUCK ?
    An Artist designed your "69 chebby" and your Rolex. I got money that says if you look up who exactly designed both of those items.. they would qualify as liberals. please remove head from ass and think for a fleeting moment.

    Without darkness there can be no light. it takes both sides of the coin to make the world run. and frankly I'd rather not live in a world without both in it .

    What the hell does an EMP blast have to do with Jobs passing? Some how I'm pretty freakin sure your rolex and 69 chebby didn't help you make this asinine post. and whatever you used will be destroyed with that exact same blast. Also ... if denver got hit with a EMP blast I think the last thing on my list of things to worry about is that my fuckin iPod stopped working.

    Of the dozen apple products around me .... only 2 of the 7 computers were bought new... the rest I saved pennies and bought used. the other products ( iPod, 3 iPhones, AppleTV, Apple router) were bought new and not only were competitive on pricing for what they do .. I use them every day ( well except the old iPhones... I just keep those around cuz I'm a nerd like that) the "overpriced" mantra is played out.. go build a machine that is spec for spec with an apple computer and the price will be within 10%.. I'll pay the 10% to not have to use windows.. than you VERY much.

    In either case if it is necessary to have to explain to a so called "adult" how to join the dots to see the whole picture, it is a pointless exercise.

    you say we are all stupid... wait the quote was dropped on our heads....
