Words of wisdom from a combustable amphibian.

The Disdain of Fruit

Posted Thursday, February 14th, 2008 at 5:46 am

The other day I finally decided that it was time to figure out how to get the photos off my iPhone. I pulled up the iPhone user’s manual– a PDF from the Apple website. It’s instructions?

"For PC Users: Use the software bundled with your operating system or consult your camera’s documentation."

You mean the f3%*! documentation I’m reading right now? Thanks a lot, Apple. Way to flip the bird at everyone who doesn’t use your overpriced computers. I don’t know if it’s arrogance or incompetence, but I’m not sure that it matters, either.

Come on now. You know what you’re doing. You’re just complaining for the hell of it. If you think about it, you know how to get the pictures off the iPhone.

And, while I agree that their computers are expensive, their not necessarily overpriced. You get what you pay for you know. ;-)

BTW: This blogging thing is really screwing with your writing skills. Are you just not paying attention? I’m not complaining mind, just wondering if you’re going to turn into Dennis or something. :P

Aww man, you had to bring out the name-calling!

I was spoiled using Firefox with the real-time spellchecker. Now I’m on IE7 and I haven’t gotten back into the habit of clicking the spell-check button.

That’s big corporations for ya….we take your money, and screw you for it.

Remember my plight with Dell. I’ll never buy their crap EVER again after that farce they think is customer service. I don’t even talk to Indian folks anymore. When they answer, I just hang up….I’m done with that crapola.
