Vision of the future (By Microsoft not raaaid)

[JG52Krupi]

LMAO

Agree 100% I am no fan of Microsoft... perhaps it should be called future of 1st world countries

I was arguing with some guys at work who believe in the future of automated travel and while im sure it will be like that one day they seemed completely oblivous to the facts that you mentioned... how would the lorry, bus, taxi and aircraft drivers feel when they are given the middle finger.... It will be reminiscent of the Luddite's.

Think its time for another hiatus from this forum

Yes The Future is bright and shiny------------------------>well at least for those who can afford it!

Microsoft should write stuff for Star Trek, their vision of the future is a waste of time and money, they should leave this stuff to Apple and think about releasing an OS that actually works half as good as Mac OSX lol

Jobs was damn right: folks at Micro$oft lack the vision..

fortunately Jonathan Ive is still alive and kicking, he was the conceptual engineer behind the latest series of successful Apple products, he lived and worked in symbiosis with Jobs, but the true creations were their brainchildren.

Jobs was surely an inspiration, and although his manners and attitude might have been questionable to many, he still made things happen.

The comment about putting an apple on things probably means that either you never used an Apple device or you can't afford one, cos they all work better than any other PC technology, and that is a fact.

I buy apple devices on a daily Base, today i had apple pie and yesterday i had apple juice.

Well everytime when i want to buy something the first i think is "do i really need it" and then i buy it or not, its as simple as that.
I have no use for IPhone, i just need a cell phone, so i dont buy it, but in my circle of friends and acquaintances, almost every one bought IPhones because its a "must have" to be seen with. I still have my W595 thats good for me, i dont need more.
And i dont really care about Steve Jobs, the guy is dead get over it.
I dont give a dam who is inventing the stuff i buy, regardless of whether his Name is Steve Jobs or Puppulu Frufullu, i dont care about such hype.

And btw i surely can afford Apple products, but such huge amount of money i do rather spend them for beer and alcohol and a good party.

Frankly, I'd rather live in a future designed by Raaaid than one designed by Microsoft...

We have a lot in common then

I hope they invent a normal priced computer which is 20 times as fast as the one I'm on right now so I can play Cliffs of Dover in full detail running incredible framerate

Well that makes absolute sense, but the fact that you have friends that are into status symbols has nothing to do with the quality of Apple products.

And i dont really care about Steve Jobs, the guy is dead get over it.

Well then you don't understand the importance of visionary geniuses for the sake of technology advance. Jobs promoted an idea and technology that now everybody is copying, that should be more than enough to understand the importance of the man. The fact that he didn't affect you directly (or maybe he did but you don't realise it), doesn't mean again that the man was a genius.

And btw i surely can afford Apple products, but such huge amount of money i do rather spend them for beer and alcohol and a good party.

then you're probably still very young
