This is one of the funniest things I've read. I laughed for a while, but then as I read it again, it occured to me that those of us regular readers of studio2f (Murph, your brother, and me.) how many of these type of posts have appeared in your blog.
e.g.:
"Haters pan the device for being less powerful than a Cray X1 while zealots counter that it is both smaller and lighter than a Buick Regal."
"The haters enter the fray to introduce fear, uncertainty and doubt. How expensive will the product be? Will it support Windows file formats? Will it work with my ten-year-old Quadra 840AV running Mac OS 8.1?"

And the ultimate:
"Nerd porn threads appear in the Mac forums. Some lunatic with too much time and money on his hands disassembles the new device down to the bare, soldered components and posts pictures."

Total classic: http://www.studio2f.com/misc/2003/09/10g5rant.php http://www.studio2f.com/misc/2003/08/30g5status.php http://www.studio2f.com/misc/2003/08/29worldsslowestcomputer.php AND http://www.studio2f.com/misc/2003/08/26grrrr.php vs. "Pointless outrage slowly turns to pointless optimism. Driven insane by the lack of instant gratification, would-be customers profess their willingness to gun down the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny if it would hasten the arrival of the FedEx delivery person."
