Southern Patriot Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 No reason to drag some other person into it unless they bring themselves into it. Or is that another concept too difficult for you to comprehend? I guess you missed Area91's posts earlier in the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oik Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Yeah, really. This isn't the first time he's done this. Or second... or third.... or tenth... :sleep: we are consistent. but despite all these mods running around yelling "no trolling or you'll get warned/suspended/banned!", they remove his post, and he continues on.

icecaveman Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Logitech had the first and only dual optical mouse I think, not MS. I had one, it was great (still is). :) At least there was an article in a science magazine I read few years ago about Microsoft's new optical mouse technology that was so revolutionary that optical mice were finally competable/better than the old ball technology.

Southern Patriot Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Has he been brought to the attention of the mods?If you guys want him gone, start reporting him, and be consistent. At least twice by me, and I'm sure many other times by other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gawdflesh Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Well, the Mac-related mods aren't as active as they once were. You may perhaps want to start documenting a pattern of behavior, then submit that to Neobond or Redmak. I've noticed he's been rather disruptive (which says a lot, coming from me ;) ) and it may take the involvement of some of the heavy hitters to take care of this situation.

Very true. Their mouse hardware is continually highly-rated. I just don't like their weird shape when compared to Logitech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Documenting his behavior is easy enough.

session Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 And thanks to who? Now area doesn't even have to stand up for himself and he can still get away! @roadwarrior: And look at my research! I believe mods saw and read it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STV Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 (edited) I think that Microsoft would take windows to the grave with them.? It obviously isn't going to happen anytime soon seeing as how they hold quite a strong footing in the market today.? But in due time, it is bound to happen.? Mac and linux users are increasing every day.? People are realizing that there are more choices open to them other than windows.? Microsoft is losing some of its customers to open source programs such as open office and the like simply because of cost.? They may also be tossing out hardware such as keyboards, mice, and networking equipment as well, but who is to say that other companies aren't doing so?? Apple has been selling their own hardware and software for years.? iPod has been a huge success for apple.? Millions of people use their iPods and download music via iTunes on a daily basis.This just goes to say that Microsoft is bound to die someday, but nobody can tell when.? And when it does die, the people will have other choices because windows will be gone. im sorry to tell you, but apart from the designs an a few other very minor components, apple does not make their hardware. 1) the iPOD: uses a third-party hard-drive 2) the G5 processor: made by IBM along with other things, but 1 and 2 come to mind. i dont think that microsoft will dies in near or even distant future (50+ years). microsoft has also been selling their software and hardware for years. there may be mac and linux users popping up every day, but there are far, far more people buying windows or a pc with windows on it. once many customers realize the power that they have lost by using openoffice over microsoft office, they will bite the bullet and switch back. in all seriousness, i dont think that the sale of a music player can keep a company up an running for a long time. if anything microsoft, will out last them. but only time will tell, so please respond and let me know why you posted what you posted? i would be happy to hear more of your thoughts.

area91 Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Can you mac fanboys please stop with the stupid threads? No one gives a **** about your stupid opinions. Apple could never be in Microsoft's position. They never will (if Microsoft falls, open source will fill in, Apple wont), they blew there chance years ago.

STV Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 session?, just out of curiousity, what do you think of my posts in the mac forums thus far? seems okay to ask since nuka_t asked. :p:p:):) STV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VGVL Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Can you mac fanboys please stop with the stupid threads? No one gives a **** about your stupid opinions. Apple could never be in Microsoft's position. They never will (if Microsoft falls, open source will fill in, Apple wont), they blew there chance years ago. Can you stop the stupid flaming? Seriously, if you had not trolled in like you always do maybe right now this thread would be a real discussion. "No one gives a ****" is not really appropriate. I would think that all the users (except you) who have posted in this thread plus the ones who don't post but only read are interested in our "stupid opinions". It was never mentioned that Apple could be in Microsoft's position. In fact, this thread did not involve Apple at all until you posted. And guess what? You are certainly not welcome, not even by Windows users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecaveman Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Very true. Their mouse hardware is continually highly-rated. I just don't like their weird shape when compared to Logitech. The only weird shapes I have seen come from Apple :laugh: Really Microsoft has been the only one making big enough mice for people who don't have children sized hands like Logitec seems to specialize in. Logitec makes mice like for aliens with small fingers but Microsoft makes them mostly hand shaped. Look for example on the back/forward buttons on Logitec's MX series how difficult it is to press them compared to MS newer mice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
