| Currently there are 8 iPhone threads, 2 iPod threads and an iPad thread on the first page of the tech forum. Think different, buy Apple products. |

Meanwhile the Bill Gates Foundation carries on with giving away billions of dollars a year and really helping people around the world....... |
Bill Gates also pays no tax, ripped his product off IBM, and Active-X is windows only.
He is just like the next sleazeball billionaire |

You are quoting an advertising campaign that ended in 2002.

And I have probably commented in every one of them... I need to get a life.  |

I don't get it. Windows has 91.3% of the market share compared to Mac's 5.26% - and Apple users are following the herd? I think part of the reason Apple's sales shot so high is that many Apple users buy multiple Apple products. It doesn't necessarily translate to a higher number of people choosing Apple over PC (although the trend of switching to Mac does seem to be accelerating).

| Gates ripped off IBM. IBM laid off many hardware specialists when software (Microsoft) became king. My dad got laid off. I buy apple now. |
