How To Be An 'Expert' During An Apple Event
Make fun of the way it looks and call it “unusable”. Sit back down in front of your enormous PC desktop running Windows XP with old installers and indecipherable driver filenames covering your wallpaper.
Say the name “iPad” is stupid. Hate the product based on that fact alone.
Make fun of the name again. Funnier this time. Look desperately around the room for validation...

ITAPPMONROBOT. This tickles me. →
At the turn of the 21st century, Initrode Global’s server infrastructure began showing cracks. Anyone that had been in the server room could immediately tell that its growth had been organic.

Fellow Apple Fans:
Seriously, enough the iSlate and iPhone 4G mockups. Every time I look at the #iPhone or #Apple tags on Tumblr I see a mockup someone posted about the last iPhone refresh.
