ExiledInIllinois Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Too funny: Pissing Contest Sounds like the a defense when somebody rips Apple off.
Chef Jim Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 What a dickhead. p.s. Yes You'd do Steve Jobs?
The Poojer Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 i kind of like his reply...she almost sounded as if she felt entitled to a reply.... fails to answer any of my questions which are, as I have repeatedly told them, essential to my academic performance."

kegtapr Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 While I think Jobs is a douche and he should have just deleted the email, technically he's right. It's not his companies job to respond to a single college kid working on a project. If the professor is a good one, he'll turn this into a lesson for her.
Booster4324 Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Sorta obvious what her problem is. >>> Chelsea Kate Isaacs>>> Senior >>> CW Post - Long Island University >>> >>> Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile
HopsGuy Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.... she's a hand model?

Yes, because she certainly didn't learn anything herself from the encounter. Apple doesn't owe her squat. She thinks she's Dorothy. Well, welcome to Kansas, 'cause this ain't Oz.

Well, welcome to Kansas, 'cause this ain't Oz. While Jobs might be rich and hyper intelligent, she came off better than him IMO. He never had to respond. He chose to respond and responded as a complete dick. I would guess he likes doing that.
Chef Jim Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.... she's a hand model? Big deal, George Costanza was a hand model.
Just Jack Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.... she's a hand model? Used to be, wearing gloves is too difficult.
KD in CA Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.... she's a hand model? I wonder if she's master of her domain.
boyst Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 Apple sucks. The same items used in PC are 1/3 the cost. THE SAME EXACT THINGS. Apples are for people who want to spend a bunch of money to have somethign really pretty. In reality a well built computer is a well built computer. A Best Buy PC is a Best Buy PC.

boyst Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 http://de.tinypic.com/r/28cm6oo/7 I saw that a long time ago, it's actually kind of funny.
ExiledInIllinois Posted September 22, 2010 Author Posted September 22, 2010 (edited) i kind of like his reply...she almost sounded as if she felt entitled to a reply.... I sorta agree Pooj if you mean Jobs replyinig. Yet, all she is doing is asking Apple's public relation's department to reply... Which she should at least get a reply from them. No? EDIT: Even if it is the PR department telling her to go pound salt. Edited September 22, 2010 by ExiledInIllinois
Booster4324 Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 He is trying to say, "Same hardware and a different O/S for 3 times the price." Which has some validity. Apple has some nice bells and whistles though and depending on what application you are trying to use, can be better.
ExiledInIllinois Posted September 22, 2010 Author Posted September 22, 2010 What gets me is the whole "leave us alone thing." Those are some pretty pissy words considering. Those are the kind of words that live forever. Totally out of line for a guy like Jobs to say. This is a guy who can be considered a thief... Considering how he raised his capital early on by ripping off the phone company. Now, in typical fashion is running the "machine" and he says: "Leave us alone." Did this tool forget his roots, sure sounds like it.

You're right, just like a steak is a steak, same exact things.
