Apple haters already hate the soon to be introduced new iPad.

Our resident psychic sent us a few thoughts telepathically stolen from well known Apple haters. Did I say stolen? NO! I said “telepathically stolen”!

Apple hater extra-ordinaire and Microsoft cheerleader/secret employee Paul Thurrott has finished bashing the next iPad. Comparing it to the “so mind-blowingly awesome” Windows 8 tablets. Thurrott insists that the new iPad does not have Metro interface, therefore it is so boring, stale and outdated. In addition to that Thurrott chides Apple for doing a miniscule update to the iPad. “Nothing revolutionary” says Thurrot, but then he added “I’m going to get one so people see that I do not hate Apple.”

Secret Apple hater and Chief TWiT Leo Laporte is still bitter over being Gizmodo-ed by Apple. “I have undisputedly the most popular Apple-news podc….. netcast out there. I also have millions of listeners on my AM Radio show.” Laporte also insists that Apple’s closed-ecosystem of iOS devices is bad; as he waves the flag of Open Source Software. “Android is an Open Source Project. I support Open Source! Open Source is the way to go.” Speaking of supporting Open Source Software, Laporte proceeds to bash WordPress and promotes the not-Open-Sourced SquareSpace.

Rob Enderle is currently having mini strokes while calling the next iPad that he has not even seen an overpriced hipster status symbol.

Microsoft CEO Steve Balmer proclaims that Windows 8 Tablet is already years ahead of any iPads. Balmer then says: “The iPad does not run Windows 8; not the current ones, not the next one. Everybody will flock to Microsoft Store and buy Windows 8 tablet instead of iPad!” Balmer then throws a few chairs at random directions.

Gizmodo is calling the next iPad a huge fail of a gadget. Gizmodo says that they don’t need to be invited to any Apple events. They don’t care about Apple products. They only cover it because their readers want to know about Apple products. Gizmodo prepares to scour live reports from other sites and have a pretend live coverage.

Calling Captain Obvious, 17-inch MacBook Pro is larger than 15-inch MacBook Pro.

I thought that I would never figure this out, but thanks to AppleInsider I finally understand.

Disadvantages of the 17″ MacBook Pro

Apart from being $300 more, the 17″ version is a pound heavier than the 15″ model and 1.1″ wider and 0.7″ deeper (it’s also a hair thicker). It won’t fit into sleeves for 15″ models, and won’t fit into a variety of bags or backpacks intended for “regular sized” laptops.

Once again, thanks AppleInsider for pointing out that 17-inch MacBook Pro is larger and heavier than its 15-inch counterpart. You know how much I hate having MacBook Pro with smaller screen to be bigger and heavier than the one with larger screen. What an observation! Without this information I’d be cursing the day while trying to fit the 17-inch MacBook Pro into a 15-inch MacBook Pro sleeve.
