When I was looking at the iPod store, there was this huge picture of someone's arm with an iPod nano arm band around it blaring in my face. Unfortunately, I could not recognize it as an arm, seeing as the top of the arm looked like a stump of a hand. The photographer shot someone with a black shirt over black background. Is this not the worst technique ever?

I just put my PowerBook on eBay, and will be leaving to Best Buy in about 30 minutes to pick up an HP. Not sure if I'll stay with a laptop. Might get a big tower and 17" LCD. That'll be COOL. It's what Apple gets. I could handle the dancing silhouettes and Danika not returning my calls. But this time they've just gone too far.

I was going to pick up an iMac or Powerbook, but I've decided not to even wait until Tuesday. Why should I wait for a "superior" computer when the company can't even post good enough pictures of iPod nano armbands on it's own website?

Screw the iMac. I'm going to buy a rad $1,800 Dell.

I've just smashed all my Macs with an axe, and run over my iPods with a street sweeper.

And may I note that there is some light on the black shirt beneath the armpit, so you should be able to see the definition of a body, thus avoiding confusion...

Nope. I'm fed up.

Uncertain update timelines and hard-fought battery replacement policies are one thing, but a subjectively unimpressive image on their website? Come on. Standards people, standards.

Screw technology. I'm dusting off my typewriter.

Ya, the amputated arm idea is kind of what I meant when I posted this.

I found it to be 'mysterious' and 'intriguing'.

Maybe I should be posting this in the fetish thread....
