You do know the mass suicide threats where on Foxconn's Xbox plant right?
Well, ABC was touring the iPad installation when the showed the dorms and nets. I suppose they were committing fraudulent journalism? They toured another plant? You're actually delusional, or at least "apple-otized. An Apple CEO comes out and says "he's against underpaid workers and excessive hours", after the the issue comes to light, and your head spins right in time with the hype. That's what they all say! A man making eight figures a year comes out abd says, "I'm against sweatshops". What exactly would you expect he would say? "We'd pay them less, if we thought we could get away with it". Every unfair labor situation that comes to light has an "indignant" CEO saying, "we're going to get to the bottom of this"!
And about the "I'm a PC" campaign they were bashing Windows not Windows' users.
I didn't bring Samsung into this, why did you? Is Samsung pertinent to this discussion? I don't want one of their phones either. Let your iPhone siphon out your bank account, Apple's shiny things are apt to do that.
When an advertiser trashes a product, you have to expect the product's devotees, will take offense at it. If someone says the product you embrace is dumb and ill conceived, one has to expect that its users are perceived likewise.
Read about the American behavioural psychologist, John Watson.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_B._Watson After he "invented", "behavioural pshchology", he quit and went into advertising. So now tell me, "do you think Madison Ave is yanking your head in circles by accident"? Most likely it's because they've had extensive training in propaganda techniques.
This is easily borne out by the fact you don't think I'm entitled to my opinion about Apple's product or relevance.. Or to hear you go on, I'm a troll, and you're a savant. Or as I explain it, "ring the iBell, and the Apple customer salivates". (I've also read a few pages of Pavlov).
So, let's clear this up, I avoid Samsung products to an only slightly lesser degree than I do Apple products.Them I avoid altogether. I won't so much as by a song from iTunes. If your consumption af Apple's products and services conveys a sense of superiority upon you, so be it. Please consider sparing us your outpouring of joy.
Now, I'm sick and tired of listening to doggerel, nonsense, being talked down to, condescended to, and patronized by Apple's press machine. If being told something like, "if you don't have an iPhone, then you don't have an iPhone resonates with you, I extend you my sympathies.
Switching gears for just a moment, earlier this evening there was a message posted on the forum, "We will be back in a few of minutes". Now I'm sure you're aware Julio wants communication in the forums in English.
English speakers don't use the preposition "of" (de) in the same way native Spanish speakers do.
Po ejemplo, el perro esta de bajo de la mesa", is streamlined to, "the dog is under the table". "Under of the table" doesn't fly.
Y requerda, "por usted, se lo haga"........!
