Pretty much sums up the apple/customer/asshole WSJ writer relationship in one little clip.

Dvorak should get _those_guys_ to write for his Tech Hippy and Tech Grouch bits.

This video nailed it. I haven’t seen a better portrayal of Jobs since , “The Pirates of Silicon Valley”. I agree with a previous poster, John needs puppets.

Should listen to Leo Lapport too. He is another Steve Jobs subject that’s been brainwashed. Why is it so hard for the media to be objective with Apple?

# 5 Animby said, on February 4th, 2010 at 5:38 am

#4 – Dunno. I think Leo is mostly objective though he does lean toward Apple. After all. he claims he’s retired his iPhone and replaced it with a Nexus One.

This video mocking the “I love Apple” sheep will be popular with the “I hate Apple” sheep.

I don’t hate aple, just the brainless drones that hang on Steve’s every word and attempt to turn EVERY flaw in all apple products into valuable features.

#7 Why hate Apple or their fans? Most people are attached to brands. You should look at the Intel vs AMD or Canon vs Nikon forums.

Granted, Apple fans are a bit over the top but likely because Apple does indeed innovate in easy to use and attractive technology products vs the Dull and HP boxes. Fans are proud.

I am a Windows user (WindowsXP actually) but absolutely love my iPOD shuffle and IPOD touch and Apple TV. Great products.

iPAD? Not sure but I very much excited about the tablet battle royale that will ensue.

Many people would agree that Jobs is a maniacal egomaniac and all around asshole. So he has cancer, so do a lot of nice people. I’ve had cancer, but don’t expect to be magically forgiven of all wrongs. I’ve had to disassociate myself from control freaks. They are bad for my constitution. I use Apple products, but not because of Jobs and his phony bologna stage performances.

oh that is a joy. “You have to keep paying for the iPhone service plus the $30/month 3G fee or I’ll f*cking cut you.”

Good video. Well done in the muppet sense

Pride is one if the seven deadly sins.

Can we get this puppet onto cranky geeks?

I am eagerly awaiting the release date for the iPad. I don’t want one, but I can hardly wait to see the people lining up outside the Apple Store in San Francisco and generally acting like greedy, spoiled, shallow fools. And then the television cameras (like mine) will be forced by managements decisions at the stupid television news stations to swoop onto the first customer exiting the store to prove that somebody was first in line, and was the first to emerge from the silver castle with an actual product blessed and chanted over by Apple employees. When they released the first iPhone years back, the employees inside the crystal cathedral were actually chanting loudly, “i PHONE, i PHONE, i PHONE”, and got the idiots outside to join in. It was fucking stupid. Remember how it took only a short time for those first iPhones to be considered grossly overpriced and obsolete? HA HA HA.

#5 He does a little more than lean toward Apple. I found it funny how he managed to lock up his Nexus for 45 minutes for running too many apps. Pull the battery, restart the phone, problem fixed.

#6 You, of all people, should know how a fellow sheeple should feel. Go and reach your fellow mac sheep.

#8 See? Was that so hard? Good to see you embracing the sheeple within.

# 17 Dallas said, on February 4th, 2010 at 10:19 am

#16 I don’t see the iPAD or Apple products in your village anytime soon. Why are you here?

Shouldn’t you be milking something?

# 18 pedro said, on February 4th, 2010 at 10:30 am

#17 Hahahaha, the sheeple got upset. You should go and tell your masters you need some milking. Or even better, give ‘em money or something.

After you’ve been milked, you’ll feel better.

# 19 Luc said, on February 4th, 2010 at 3:05 pm

I don’t think Leo Laporte is such a big Apple fan. He is indeed a big next-new-thing fan. He is a joiner. Launch anything new and reasonably good and watch Leo embrace it in a heartbeat.

# 20 Animby said, on February 4th, 2010 at 7:40 pm

#15 Anon – Missed that one. All I can say is that he was probably thrilled he COULD run more than one app at a time. Jobs’s idea of multitasking is counting your money while buying a new liver.
