    Am I missing something. Wasn’t the original post supposed to be humorous? As a joke, its level of offensiveness rises to “lampoon” at worst.

    Man, I’d better not break out any of my religious material, then.

    I’m actually pretty hyped up about getting this new Mac Pro. Take my money already Apple, again.

    Wow. That may be the best reason I have seen yet to buy an aluminum Mac with great resale value and a long life.

    The fact is, PCs represent the major portion of computing use world wide.

    This isn’t an excuse to build “throw away” machines, but if you use a computer, you need to know where it goes once you’re done with it. Every computer user has a responsibility here, and you’re lying to yourself if you think you don’t have a responsibility to watch the environment as a PC user vs a Mac user.

    If PC users upgrade more frequently, that seems to me it creates more waste and uses more energy to make packaging and ship components worldwide, as well as having more volume due to more users.

    Let’s keep things at least moderately real around here, you know?
