Ford recalls Mustang just to mess with Leo Laporte.

Ripped from the “headline:”

Ford Recalls 2010 Mustang For Being Too Cool

FEBRUARY 16, 2010 | ISSUE 46•07

DETROIT—-Ford officials issued a massive recall of the entire 2010 Mustang line Tuesday, apologizing for a quality-control oversight that led to the company manufacturing a badass muscle car that was way too awesome for the American public.

…….

According to Mulally, Ford has canceled production on the 2011 Mustang, and will instead release a line of fuel-efficient vehicles in an effort to appeal to boring old Americans.

I bet Ford found out that the Mustang is way too cool for Leo Laporte. Sorry Leo, the Mustang is way out of your league.

Waiting for New MacBook Pro to appear on Apple Store today? Don’t hold your breath.

The rumor is still alive and kicking. Maybe this Tuesday Apple would release the new Core i5/i7/i405 MacBook Pros. Well, I’ve been waiting for the 72-core MacBook Pro for a long time. I’m due for a new Computer, and I want another MacBook Pro. The last purchase I made was 4 years ago when the first generation MacBook Pro was released.

OK, I have seen some Core i7 laptops and so far I am not impressed. HP Envy 15 is a disaster. No optical drive, horribly unusable trackpad and not worth the sticker price.

Come on Apple, where’s my Core i37 MacBook Pro? Yeah, the one with 73-core CPU.

You can go back to sleep now, and stop F5-ing the Apple Store page.

It is confirmed, Apple haters already hate the iPad.

Apple iPad
http://www.apple.com/ipad/

Apple has just revealed their latest creation, the iPad. No it’s not the one from Mad TV sketch.

A few days ago I read a hilarious post from knice.landing (20 things Apple haters already hate about the Apple Tablet); it somewhat rings true. Apple haters already hate the iPad. It’s not about the name.

Well, you don’t have to be an Apple hater to hate the Apple iPad. You could be a dirty unbathed free-software hippie for example.

Here are some reasons why, and they are real complaints taken from comments all over the Internet:

  • It is not open.
  • It is not open source.
  • iTunes App Store sucks.
  • It is locked in to Apple’s proprietary software.
  • It runs Apple’s own processor.
  • It is not as good and open and free as Android.
  • It has a limited/crippled multi-tasking feature.
  • It does not use nVidia Ion chipset.
  • It does not use Intel processor.
  • It does not run Windows 7.
  • Paul Thurrott said the iPad sucks.
  • Rob Enderle said the iPad sucks.
  • Steve Ballmer said the iPad sucks.
  • It has small storage.
  • It does not have OLED screen.
  • It does not have stylus.
  • Steve Jobs is dressed poorly.
  • What about Adobe Flash? Seriously, does it even run Flash? Flash! Ah ah! (queues Queen song).
  • It does not have real keyboard. (What? It’s a “tablet” computer.)
  • It looks like an oversize iPhone.
  • Battery life is only 10 hours.
  • It is tied to iTunes.
  • It does not have 10 Megapixel camera.
  • It is on AT&T 3G. Why can’t it be with (insert company name here).
  • It is not the one Jason Calacanis said he had. (p.s. Jason Calacanis is an attention whore.)
  • It is $499 – that’s too expensive. Greedy Apple!
  • No front facing camera.
  • No camera.
  • Battery is not removable.
  • The name “iPad” sucks.
  • Netbook is much better.
  • It does not have Ogg support.
  • It does not play Windows Media Format files.
  • It does not have Blu-Ray drive.
  • No free software (this and next 3 from Ars Technica)
  • No installing apps from the Web
  • No sharing music or books
  • We can remotely disable your apps & media

More to come……. maybe

More About The Apple New Creation, The One To Be Revealed On January 27th, 2010.

More misinformation from the imaginary source who claimed to be an Apple Executive who is definitely not Phil Schiller. The new device that is the new Apple Creation would:

  • have rounded corners.
  • have a default portrait profile, based on the orientation and placement of the Apple logo.
  • have an Apple logo at the back of the device roughly half the size of the one on MacBook Pro.
  • have no iSight or any front facing camera, because it is not practical.

Remember to take what you read with a boulder of salt, because Apple has allegedly leaked fake information in the past.

Other fake info about this Apple New Creation:

  • roughly one-half inch thick.
  • has some interface ports (USB?).
  • has SD Card slot.

Well, that’s all for now. Remember to tune in to the Live Coverage of “Come see our latest creation.” special event on January 27th, 2010. As usual, you can find links to the live coverage (in)conveniently linked here.

Take that Apple-rumor-sites!

The New Creation That Apple Will Reveal on January 27th, 2010 Is…….

Don’t call it “iSlate” because that name is so un-Apple and was used by Apple’s own for misinformation. Apparently other companies are taking the bait by renaming their tablet PC as Slate.

According to an imaginary source who claimed to be a high ranking Apple Executive that is definitely not Tim Cook, this new Apple “creation” would have the following:

  • 6.75-inch x 8.72-inch dimension, thickness was not disclosed.
  • 6.375-inch x 8.345-inch screen size.

So far, that was all the info given by this all-made-up-mysterious-Apple-Executive who is definitely not Phil Schiller. Remember that the nimber given was not an accurate measurement of the device itself due to some rounding errors.

Anyway, Check back for some fake information about the fable Apple device that could be some kind of tablet-like computer.

Remember that Apple will be holding the “Come see our latest creation.” event on January 27th, 2010 at Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco.
