@neonrox-u r the delusional one, apple’s computers are their consoles in their mind. and therefore apple as it sees it has no reason to make a console. If they did, however…Where’s that m80? dang it i just had it. hmmm must have used it on my friend’s iPod. I am an apple lover i just find iPod too popular.

Truth is like PC in the ads delusional and pathetic. Microsoft makes mediocre software and the Zune has been fail and lulz. The only reason MS has been succesful is in that they cater to the lowest common denominator. It’s like comparing Beer to Scotch. That being said I love my 360 at least until an Apple console comes along.

@ richard

I've tried setting all these up, but iTunes has never turned on, noticed I've put a new folder (album) in my music directory and then imported it into my Music library automatically. I've always had to do it manually. The zune software picks up on it almost as soon as i put it into the folder and i never have to worry about it.

Don't get me wrong, I love Apple, just me and iTunes have never seen eye to eye.

truth (lol) you recall the company referred to as “Big Blue”? Well, they were too big too. Not any longer. Now, Mr. Ballmer, go give away more PC laptops so you can pretend people actually would choose one over a Mac.

I see a lot of * + # + 0 for reset in the future.

Someone had to say it.

Though I have an iPhone and am very happy with it, I agree with Truth. I have been (and still continue to be) a huge PC person (and subsequently go w/ Microsoft products)…this sort of competition is good. Not only will it force Microsoft to make better products (so it doesn’t lose to Apple) it will make Apple continue to make awesome products (to try and not lose to Microsoft).

That iPhone looks like it’s playing paper rock scissors.

Well Engadget has it posted that it's going to be more so along the lines of "Sidekick" oriented phone.

Aiming towards that crowd. Not really a "iPhone" fighter
