Are you an apple fan? It is time you know who was the first to copy.

Unix is an open source operating system. A project came out sometime ago called the bsd project or something. The source code to it was open source and purpose of this project was to make an operating system that was free and open to anybody. Apple stole the source and made mac os.

Yeah. So I guess it is not right to copy apple....

Ha, what a great way to counter back Brian! Though the only difference is the multitasking part. And I think both are just bigger verions of the I-Pod touch or whatever.

What about my comeback :(

Also, apple uses crappy hardware :P

The iPod Touch/iPhone currently, when jailbroken, can run multiple tasks or whatever. As they said at the end of the article, I do believe that Apple will fix this before releasing it.

Also, as Brian said, Linux/Unix/who cares was OPEN SOURCE. Apple took the OPEN SOURCE and modified/upgraded it into a better operating system. However, I do not have a Mac and have never been able to adapt to one. The one chance that I tried one, I think I might have broken something on it. :p

It doesn't need competition; it's a huge iPhone that you can't call anyone with. I mean, duh, everyone is bound to buy it!

Forum Legend Posts : 6961 Registration date : 2008-04-06

Yeah and only being able to run one app at a time and no camera makes it the device to beet. And such good hardware too! DUHHH

Exactly.

PS: Apple did say there is "one more thing".

There is also an iPod Touch, if anyone has forgotten. It doesn't let you call people, doesn't have a camera, and it can only run one app at a time. It is actually a really good device.

I still have no idea what the iPad is or looks like because everytime I go to look at it on apple, my browser freezes. I am actually getting pretty agitated about it.

**Retired Staff** Posts : 6980 Registration date : 2008-10-09

Tricky is kind of right. The iPod Touch is great and how do you know that this thing isnt a piece of junk? Do you have one? I have never even heard of that brand. Also, explain how apple uses crappy hardware, and what makes you think this MSI company is going to be any better; because the people who want you to buy it said so?

Flash is a product of Adobe. Apple would have to have permission/approval from Adobe to add Flash.

To get a decent processor on an apple macbook, you need to pay 2500 dollars. If you bought a macbook without the operating system on it, you could probably get it for such a low price. Don't waste your money with apple.

I say this is ripping just a bit. Obviously, there were previous tablets, but none of them had any of the hype that Apple's iPad had. So now there is the hole in the market, opened up by the iPad's popularity, we'll just see tablets take off just like touch screen mobiles did.

Hero for Hire Posts : 1343 Registration date : 2009-04-01

Well tricky i just wonder why they dont throw ova a tiny bit of their millions and bilin s of profit to make a deal with em cause it will up sales fro both if they gont a new generaion of a table twith flash or other things like new iphones with flash so yeh The ipad's competitor.

Yeah apple really needs to send ova 500 thousand or something ova cause the sales would go thru the roof in the new generations if it had flash and theres alot of things apple just well dont think about like this idea and many others cause u can delete songs off ur ipod or iphone from there u have to plug it into a computer and waste alot of time on stupid itunes dealing with it waiting a whole day fro the album covers to load or even to find out what button to press to delete songs and so on... stupid itunes thats the worst part... anywayz like bam HAS sai that is very true howd ya know if it is just as bad as apple or worse who knows if its WAY cheaper its dangerous..

To flash? 500 thousand? Thats kind of random. Also, you dont know if flash will agree to it, or if apple wants to spend the money.
