I For One Welcome Our New Lego Robot Overlords.

Oh my goodness, I can't believe this atrocity. It's just like those pirates off the coast of somalia that are killing people. I feel so incredibly bad for the multi-billion dollar conglomerate that has been riddled with lawsuits involving monopolistic abuses. This is just like a war where so many people are dying.

A side note should be made to the fact that Light Peak has a better future since it will be able to scale better than USB. Transfer speeds eventually up to 100Gbit/s if the rumors hold true.

For everyone that thinks that speed is not important try switching to a slower technology after using one that is twice as fast for a while. Or better yet just stick with USB 2 after all its fine as long as you are not transferring large files right.

@podosenov: You beat me to it. I was cracking up at the very idea. Considering no refrigeration, bacteria from manure, and the diseases of the time, I am not sure I want to try this.

@geekymitch: hmmmm. Russia makes New Jersey look good????

@ademu: You should know a bit about the company and their sales before making short sighted statements like this.

I was in the game development industry at the time that all of this happened and there is a bit more to this than what the article covers.

@Phate: You are correct, usually that is the case. I wrote this because I saw a lot of people using the term associated with this article in the comments and I found it rather annoying.

@picrad: These are the App Store Guidelines. I think you are kind of reaching on this one. This comment is listed under "User Interface". What they are trying to prevent is someone cloning their apps and trying to sell them in their store. Nothing is preventing you from creating an app or even selling them elsewhere.

@justin0025: calling a group of people fan boys is a cop out. I have run every operating system put out over the past 20 years and I can honestly say windows is by far the weakest.

@puntai: They could have just as easily come out and said, "Steve is inaccurate and is only trying to boost their product." and they would have looked a lot better and still accomplished the same goal.

@Wansai Ounkeo: The only people that a CEO needs to justify things like this to are their shareholders. If your product is making millions there is no need to justify comments like what Jobs made.

Really... Why don't they just wall themselves off from the rest of the world. That would... oh, wait....

Your puny pickup truck is no match for my motorcycle-cartwheel kung fu.

@Geoff Rowland: The company that was manufacturing it came back to ThinkGeek a couple of time to ask them if the specifications were correct.

its..... its...... its..... a...a... amazing
