. . . I know, I know, that’s what she said.

No wonder the USA has historic problems with race.

…by the ankles!
…over gravel!
…and cobblestone…
Hmmm…

DELL and Windows are inextricably entwined.
Hoping for the passing of one, but not the other, is disingenuous at best, apologist at worst.

I’m sorry, but to make me happy, Mikey’s dismissive, derisive comment about shutting down Apple requires the complete and utter obliteration of DELL.

And even then, I won’t really enjoy the news of DELL’s demise unless DELL’s corpse is dragged by the ankles, over the gravel and cobblestone streets of Redmond, behind Apple’s chariot.

One bite at a time.

Apple has the patience to eat the whole damn thing, no matter how long it takes.

It isn’t over. Not until day that both populace and press, far and wide, recognize the Dell brand only as a publisher of once-popular comic books.

What I’m actually waiting for is for Macs to pass Windows. I’m waiting for Windows itself to fade into history replaced by Apple and who knows who else. That’s the gloat I will be smearing over those who had relegated Apple to also-ran status. And people new to Mac, just don’t have that same memory as those around 1995-2005. They’ll wonder what the fuss is. But, yes, I remember, Chinstrap.

*impossibly geeky, somewhat clammy mathematical high-five!*

Only problem is, there needs to be a clarifying paragraph in between para 1 & 2 about Dell being a tech giant n Apple being in dire trouble…or whatever the case was.

“Asswipe”? Probably not. Looks like he hasn’t cleaned there in a very long time.

Perhaps he’s simply likening Dell to a “dead horse” and thinks it deserves a beating?

Did you mean “beating a dead horse” ins the traditional sense, RobG? As in: “To continue in any endeavor (physical, mental, etc.) that is a waste of time as the outcome is already decided.”

If so, why did you send MDN the link, if you did?

All you kids know is what’s going on now.

Hell, back then it was a fight with the IT windows fags, just to get a Mac on the company network. You kids just don’t understand how it was back then.

All the user groups banding together to keep the Mac alive and knowing some day that the Mac would rise again. Or should I say Apple would rise again.

Keep posting this!

Certainly not to those of us Mac user who had to endure the derision and ridicule of smarmy & indignant Windows users circa 1995-2005.

If you were a Mac user during that period, you were scum in the eyes of Windows zealots. Michael Dell cast his lot with them and deserves all the derision he can swallow.

So, spare me your sanctimonious pontifications of ‘beating a dead horse’. The horse may be dead, but it’s not yet been pulverized into a paste that is beyond recognition of its former existence. That has yet to transpire.

When Dell finally declares bankruptcy, then we will stop.

Until then… you know what to do.

Gets.

Old.

Luv ya, Mikey!! /waves
