Copy cats!

This is why i never bought anything from these guys… and never will.

Behringer’s Latest Rip-Off Job: Apple.com

I remember friends of mine who bought products from Behringer, they same they where as good as the original… but cheaper…
I knew back then that it might be as good as, but it was a rip-off, they could sell cheaper because they hadn’t invested money on R&D and design… and that bothered me.

Actually, it still does… that’s why it’s very difficult to me go out and buy copies of original products.
Hey, but that’s just me… feel free to enjoy the new economy!

My Apple iMac 24″ is burning my eyes…

I love my Apple iMac 24″. I really do, but let’s face it… the 20″ was good enough for me, too bad i had to return it… the LCD panel was just trash… and in trash i mean the worst monitor i’ve seen in an Apple product (not counting the old Peforma monitors)…

You have to look forward!

Steven Levy writes for the Wire about the 25 years of the Macintosh… the article starts with a great paragraph about Steve Jobs on nostalgia…

“It’s the 25th anniversary of the Apple Macintosh, but Steve Jobs’ eyes are dry. At the company headquarters in Silicon Valley, where he was presenting a set of new laptops to the press last October, I mentioned the birthday to him. Jobs recoiled at any suggestion of nostalgia. “I don’t think about that,” he said. “When I got back here in 1997, I was looking for more room, and I found an archive of old Macs and other stuff. I said, ‘Get it away!’ and I shipped all that shit off to Stanford. If you look backward in this business, you’ll be crushed. You have to look forward.”"

Think Different

Apple’s Think Different campaign celebrates 10 years…

Here’s the free verse poem that still inspires us all:

Here’s to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some see them as the crazy ones,
We see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world,
Are the ones who do
