I guess if we stuck MythTV in a white box....

.....it wouldn't be as "cool".....even though it would do everything this Steve Jobs' turd does and more.

See, that's what I like. An intelligent, unbiased response from an actual user.

Thank you so much for your intellectually stimulating input, it is much appreciated.

Thank you for the adolescence. The fact that he's right doesn't detract from the fact that he's right and you're just mouthing the Apple Fangrrl mantra.

Speak about the product when you actually purchased and used it. Otherwise...grow up.

And your response is any less adolescent?

How can anyone, including yourself, who hasn't actually used the product say he's right?

Jackass...

I'm not mouthing anyone's "Fangrrl mantra" as I haven't even seen the damn thing. Hence, I have no standing to make a comment concerning the actual product.

If you or him had actual product in hand, and said "it stinks because" then it would be a valid opinion.

It really is ironic that you accuse me of mouthing Apple's "Fangrrl mantra" when all you're doing is mouthing the anti Apple "Fangrrl mantra" yourself. I'm not saying the product is good, bad, or shitty. I was just pointing out that someone who obviously hadn't used the thing (most likely like yourself) was saying it's shitty (like yourself).

Personally, I didn't purchase the product, as I don't see a need for it, and I'll stick with my cable co's DVR for the present time.

So, to recap;

1: In calling my comments "adolescent" (I would've preferred sophomoric, but I digress) you sound just as, if not more adolescent than myself.

2: In accusing me of towing the Apple "Fangrrl mantra" you tow the anti Apple "Fangrrl mantra" even more than I tow any pro Apple"Fangrrl mantra".

Good talk, Rus....

BTW, I admit that most of not ALL of my posts are adolescent, if not pointless. See, this is an internet message board, and not a court of law, and I just don't take myself THAT seriously....

Looks like someone struck a nerve...and someone else took it tooo seriously.

I agree, Myth TV blows this stuff out the water. Don't need any "white" boxes in my black living room btw.

Re: I guess if we stuck MythTV in a white box....

The problem with MythTV as I have discovered, by installing and using it, is getting it installed and using it.
I finally had to resort to MythDora, and my remote still doesn't work.

Ha! You and the runny kitty above you can both go pound sand.

You twits have no problem criticizing products you have never used nor ever will, so don't preach at me from your wobbly, worm-infested pulpit, you hypocrite.

Your attack on him was utterly against the posting rules here as well, by the way. It provided no content except to attack someone who had expressed his opinion, and did not reference the opinion at all. Say hello to Mr. Hey Mods.

Re: I guess if we stuck MythTV in a white box....

You can call "Mr. Hey Mods" all you want, I really couldn't care less.

Calling me a twit and a hypocrite is probably more likely to get the ax, then my sarcastic jab to the ribs there fella.

As a matter of fact, I took a look at the posting FAQ and terms of service. I can't see where my initial post violates either. I also noticed that "Hey modding" people is, and I quote from the FAQ on Moderation "not a way for members to harass others on the site." I also noticed the suggestion "it may be that it's time to become a little more tolerant."

Lighten up, Francis....

Re: I guess if we stuck MythTV in a white box....

Being "a little more tolerant" would be good advice for you to follow, instead of acting like a 14 year old. Your tired, trite "/sarcasm off" drivel fails to mask the troll-like smell which you emit.

Re: I guess if we stuck MythTV in a white box....

do u guys have any idea how dumb you guys sound? fighting over pointless crap? You KNOW it is pointless to keep going when you have to refer to the "rules" as part of an argument...

Some Mac guys can get a little emotional. Nothing to see here - move along.

PS: If you want "Hey Mods" check out ATM.

I agree. Someone can say "others may imitate, but nothing's like an Apple", but when a person says something like the first post in this news thread, they get his garbage.

Including playing DivX, which according to the linked thread, AppleTV doesn't. That's a fatal flaw for such a device right from the start. Do yourself a favor. Put the $299 toward an HTPC.
