    Apple Announces: MacBook Wheel

    This is the the next big thing!

    MacBook Wheel revealed
    Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my Uncle Jack off a horse." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."

    There is never a good time for lazy writing!

    I believe they captured Apple's trademark smugness perfectly.
    All shrank, like boys who unaware,
    Ranging the woods to start a hare,
    Come to the mouth of the dark lair
    Where, growling low, a fierce old bear
    Lies amidst bones and blood.

    I think I heard of this a while ago, but hadn't seen the video. That's so hilarious! (I like the tag at the end about the Sudoku killer, too.)

    Great lines:

    "I'll buy almost anything if its shiny and made by Apple."

    "The computer is virtually unbreakable unless it is dropped or hit."

    But my absolute favorite, because it sums up the smug vanity of many Apple fanatics: "I like how the email, it automatically says 'Sent from a MacBook wheel.' That way everyone knows you have one."
    Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my Uncle Jack off a horse." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."

    This reply took me 50 minutes to type because I hit the side of my keyboard fifty times before each letter to see what it would be like with a wheel. Truly amazing. I'm sure everyone in an office will want one so they can now spend 7 hours of their day checking Facebook.

    Seriously, unless you are only using your laptop as a massively oversized iPod - What is the point? Or are Apple now actively encouraging the dumbing down of population because be forced to use "txt speech" for everything to save time. - i h8 it alrdy

    I went back and watched it again just to read the news scroll. Funny stuff!

    You mean they don't already?
