I’ve read the Onion for over 15 years and am amazed at how clever the writing is. Equally amazed that so many fools just don’t get it. It is rare to find such over the top parody that hits the mark. For those who have not followed the Onion, you should check it out regularly – we need to laugh at life more often.

The bit about using “the predictive sentence technology” (with the absurd list of possible sentence choices) was very amusing. Whoever did the graphics on the MacBook Wheel screen to match what was being done on the “big wheel and button” did a fantastic job.

Well Zune Thang, I am glad you love to burst the bubble, cause it’s something that the new prototype Mac is using and you burst it when you want to send a command. Soon everyone will be bursting with joy.

So you were over at the Redmond lab for lunch. I hope Ballmer ate you out real good. I heard the squircle idea came when Microscum tried to photocopy the wheel, putting a round peg through a square hole is one of the things you call innovation. I am sure it will be a great device on all the computers made by Microsoftie, except of course they haven’t figured out how to make a computer yet. But keep trying.
