Macbook Pro's Freezing

It ain't just windows folks, Mac's can freeze and crash just the same.  Actually just had my Macbook (older dual core) hang trying to unlock the screensaver.

Mac wins because other vendors are dumb

Does Apple make a good product, yea (they just don't care about the business world, hence my hatred since thats what I support all day) but the reason they are dominating in tablets right now is because other companies are just plain dumb.


Hmmm what would I rather have for $600 - a 2nd generation device with tons of apps and a solid/stable OS or a first generation tablet with a brand new OS?  Apple wins.  The Moto Xoom would sell all day and night at say $299 and would give it a chance with regular consumers, but not for the same price.

Apple only wants your money

Nice publicity stunt though...way to try and take focus away from the conference and people that actually paid to be there.
