143879 2003-05-14 07:01:00 pfffft. The iLow is junk anyway. It was just a pathetic rip off of the Apple iToilet (http://www.electric-chicken.co.uk/). :D -=JM=- (16)

They don't know how true that is... I hate turning up at school each morning for another boring lecture by one of my friends about how PC's copped out Mac's and Windows is based on Mac OS, and how Mac is based on Unix whereas Windows is open like a Window...
No matter how much rebuttal I put in, Mac's always have to come out better off with him X-(...

Well, Mac's *are* pretty cool :) The only thing that gets me is their proprietary and expensive hardware. (Although, to be fair, imo Mac's don't need to be upgraded so much compared to x86 pc's)

143882 2003-05-14 11:05:00 I feel that a logo of an apple with one bite out of it is rather unfortunate.

They should have had one with two bites.

When I pick an apple from my tree and take one bite only, it means that it was either rotten or full of bugs. ;\

Only joking or course. My brother has a Mac and he really likes it. :)

143885 2003-05-14 22:20:00 I still like the idea of a frdige conected to a high-speed connection..

Sense all the foods and adjusts temprature of certain compartments..

Also notices you're running out of butter and goes to an online shop and orders some for the next day...

Not to mention you could download SETI@Home on it and tell all your mates/co-workers your fridge is off searching for aliens while you have a coffee break @ work ;-)
