An Apple customer since March 1, 1984 when I bought the original Macintosh 128K. I've been weeping for joy and in frustration ever since.

Apple went from the iPhone 3G to the 3GS. Can't wait for Samsung bada to become badas[s]. http://www.bada.com/samsung...
I'm letting Hagen know that I don't appreciate a 76% price increase in 2 years, with 49% of that in the last 12 months. I'm sure they care.
I hate these idiotic companies that require you to create an account before giving them feedback. I'm talking about you Hagen pet products.
Just noticed with the iTunes Store revamp that I can't find out how to look at the Info window of tracks I'm previewing. Big step backwards.
When a file copy from a server finishes, why can't I eject the server disk for several seconds? Just how long does it take to close a file?
Don't you just hate it when software installers don't check if they're compatible with your hardware before nuking your old installation?
Dear web developers, Using 9 pt font with large amounts of important text is torturing your visitors. Tired of increasing font size. :-(
[I'd appreciate knowing why as I have 4 units, 3 different models.] RT @danfrakes: APC's UPS warranty service is very disappointing.
Damn those @zipca folks are good. They shipped a DVD on November 5th, but the release date is November 10th.
Bought a couple tracks off iTunes Store. New Terms & Conditions popped up. You believe me when I say I read all 10,030 words (60,445 char)?
I don't get it. Apple rushes out Apple TV fix because it deletes data backed up in iTunes. Yet they do nothing for iPhone's dead wi-fi. WTF?
@Scobleizer Your mention of Ning single-handedly proves the value of Twitter. Ning's exactly what I've been looking for. Thanks!
Just noticed how much I'm enjoying Snow Leopard's inclusion (finally) of keyboard shortcuts for alert dialog buttons.
Apple TV crashed trying to move to the Movies menu. Noticed screensaver screwed so went to adjust and it hung for 2 minutes. POS.
Tried to upgrade my Ubuntu installation. Now it can't find the boot drive. Snow Leopard sucks, Windows sucks, now Ubuntu? Any decent OSes?
Nuked my Win7 RC install on Parallels when a Windows update caused my task bar to vanish. Geez, Win7 is ALMOST as unstable as Snow Leopard.
It's sad to see Adobe in such deep financial trouble that they can't afford proper bandwidth. Downloading at a glacial 280 KB/s.
Why is iTunes Genius sending info to Apple again when I haven't added any new content?
Something turned off iTunes syncing of photos to Apple TV. Turn it on and it removes 5.5 GB of photos and recopies everything. Dumb.
@Scobleizer Did a Bing search of: don dodge microsoft. 4/10 entries on first page were on his layoff.
Google sure seems to be having a lot of "cloud" problems lately. I mean, if these guys can't do it right … Continuing Calendar problems.
Here are construction plans to build a bookcase with a hidden door. Not that I have anything to hide. http://www.woodweb.com/knowled...
The dock shows me a missing disk icon. That's odd, the disk is mounted on my Desktop. http://yfrog.com/1qbg1gp

It's really annoying when the iPhone's voice dialing makes a mistake and calls the police instead. Confirmation too much to ask?
And why doesn't the voice dial work through the Bluetooth headset? Duh!
Wow, just noticed my Lombard G3 laptop running 10.3.9 for my crappy X-10 lighting control system has been running for 258 days! (Feb. 18)
RT @jsnell: Our book about the iPhone has been rejected from the App Store BECAUSE IT CONTAINS THE WORD iPHONE. [See—Apple CAN get stupider]
Aside from putting my MacBook to sleep using a sledgehammer, is there any way to ensure it stays asleep? Has Nervous Processor Syndrome?
I can't get excited about Apple's rumored foray into TV subscriptions. Rogers 95 GB cap will ensure that initiative is stillborn.
@Ihnatko Does it bother you when someone like @mux uses OH: instead of RT so you don't get credit for your quote? (girlfriend/MacBook)
