    Ballmer.

    If Steve Jobs acted like Ballmer does, rather than being rather flamboyant and blatantly mispronouncing things like Jaguar, I'd buy a Mac.
    Everyone watch the video of Ballmer. Then read Asher's post.

    loony....

      This comes from a person who, in the same post, asserted Ballmer is God.

      How do you expect people to take you seriously?

        Oh my God, people took that post seriously?

        Evidently it's not too difficult to get people to take me seriously, because I made a joke and not one, but two posters took it seriously.

          Given your previous "microsoft is God" posts, it isn't out of character.

            Ballmer is awesome because he's so ridiculous, there's a ton of videos of him giving pep-rallies that crack me up every time. Plus all of the quotes he has about their competitors, classic stuff.

            He's up there with the Iraqi Information Minister for God-status.

              Call me an old fuddy duddy, but I found his monkey dance to be embarassing. I'd have hated to be there and ashamed to work for MS. You can't go jumping around like that when you look like a fat version of Charles from MASH.

              No - the Iraqui information minister didn't spit on all the people he talked to.

              Anyway, I liked this:

                I don't expect you to get it, you've shown on this forum many times to be devoid of any sort of humour or personality altogether.

                Why am I not surprised you liked that?
                It's only the same tired jokes we've been hearing for over a decade. It's even better because the only people who still make them are Mac or *nix users who don't have a clue just how stable Windows is today.

                  And for the record, Ballmer can pronounce Jaguar.

                  He's also considerably more learned than Jobs.

                    Well if this is going to turn into another boring (and wholly fictional) defence of Microsoft's virtues. I'm gone. As far as I'm concerned:

                      I really like how Steve Jobs has a brainfart and pauses for 10 seconds, then says something completely dumb and nonsensical when you look at all of MS' patents and innovations compared to Apple.

                      The difference is, the Apple Marketing Machine has succeeded into moulding the minds of all their fanatical users into thinking Apple is the one innovating ("the only company to ship hockey-puck mice!!!!", "the only company with the proprietary monitor connections so you get ****ED!!", "the only company with the insanely overpriced hardware that does less!!!") whereas in reality, Apple rips off most of their stuff from other people.

                      Hell, even iTunes (Apple's finest achievement IMO) was someone else's product repackaged.

                          I never said Microsoft is divine, nor did I say everything Apple or anyone else does is rubbish.

                          Serious question, Agathon, have you ever not used strawmen arguments in debates? If you have, you certainly don't demonstrate that on Apolyton.

                            At most that is a mild exaggeration.

                                I have lots of personality, it just clashes with lots of people.

                                And I admit to having a terrible sense of humour, Canadians are cursed with high standards.
