Ohh ahh, Apple releases iPad, tribute to MadTV

January 28th, 2010 No comments

Yes, thats right, Apple fans everywhere rejoice, for your saviour has released the hugely anticipated iPad. While one Steve Bing’s Bings Bings, another whips out his iPad.

Thats right folks, it’ll be a hit with the ladies! But seriously, can’t wait to ArsTechnica to do a proper review about it.

I guess Bill’s vision of people using Tablets Slate’s is finally coming true. I still have a Compaq HP TC1000 which I scored from MSFT back in the days when TabletPC was all the rage -- but unfortunately it didn’t pickup. I remember Dr Neil Roodyn used to carry his TabletPC around everywhere he went.

For anyone who doesn’t mind not having the latest shiny toy from Apple, but still functional, beautiful and may not lock you in to the WWoA (Wonderful World of Apple), checkout the Tegra Android SmartPad.

Me likey, checkout the technical specifications.

Have you heard the one about Apple making a Vacuum cleaner, dubbed it ‘iSuck’…

Nicely done parody wrapping together a few things than you’d expect with a killer ending.

The Simpsons mocks (M)Apple

December 2nd, 2008 No comments

A refreshing new episode of the Simpsons came out last night, amongst the highlights was the spin on the “Apple subculture” and the ‘coolness’ of it all. It pretty much summed up my thoughts on the whole elitist crowd of sour Apples.

From the clip:

You’re all losers.

You think you’re all cool because you buy a $500 phone with a picture of a fruit on it? Well guess what? It costs $8 to make and I pee on every one.

I have made a fortune out of you chums, and I’ve invested it all on Microsoft. Now my boyfriend Bill Gates and I kiss each other on a pile of your money.

- Bart Simpson as Steve Mobs

Bart You legend, summed up my thoughts exactly. Following that speech you can see the inspiration from the 1984 Apple commercial following.

The embedded version appears below as the Youtube version has been yanked, this is from DailyMotion thats still kicking.

It also touched on the touchy subject of Muslims in these uncertain times.
