    It will be YOU that will have their nose rubbed in it.

    fourth (or less) place worldwide.

    is speaking.

    Be sure to include comp.sys.mac.advocacy in all iPhone followups. Since
    the Mac fanboy community wants to harass mobile phone newsgroups, we
    should be sure that their newsgroups get all the responses.

    There are of course several differences between you and Ben Franklin.
    Among them are:

    1. Ben Franklin had something to say that was worth listening to.
    2. Ben Franklin is remembered, over 200 years after his death, as one
    of the great Founding Fathers (in his case the Founding Grandfather)
    of our country.

    What have you done to put yourself in the same class as him?

    Actually he does, and these days it's philanthropy, not anything to do
    with Microsoft. Arguably, with his wealth and drive he'll make a
    difference in the world. I hope he's more successful in his future
    endeavors than he ever was with Microsoft.

    If you caught the Q&A a couple months back where Bill & Steve shared a
    stage, Gates came across as a visionless geek with no understanding of
    the relationship of technology and people. Steve, on the other hand,
    showed a vision of how technology could improve people's lives.

    Improve whose lives, though?
    One man is currently trying to improve conditions in the third world, the
    other is making it easier to identify what song is currently playing at
    Starbucks.

    The Zune does have better sound quality than some iPods. Amusingly, the
    iPod that had the best sound quality was the original iPod shuffle.

    Has there been an evaluation of the iPhone sound quality versus other
    music players such aas the Zune? I've seen meaningless statements such
    as "The iPhone sounds as good as any iPod you’ve ever owned," which
    doesn't tell you much since different iPod models have different sound
    quality.

    Still, at $300, which is what the 8GB iPhone costs after the $50 AT&T
    discount, and the other $50 credit, it's pretty easy to see why it's
    become the best selling phone. At $600 it would still be struggling.

    It's about how we interact with technology. Gates and the Windows
    empire has no clue as evidenced by their pitiful products.
    Bill is free to spend his money as he pleases, but that doesn't mean
    he's a better person than someone who continues to devote their life to
    furthering technology. Jeez, you liberals are a self-righteous lot.

    Gates's agenda is to improve the third world by selling product to the
    third world.

    No clue is right. In the late 80's I attended a seminar on *technology*
    at a university where Gates was one of the speakers. As evidence with
    the crowds(and other speakers) reaction during Gates talk it was pretty
    obvious that Gates didn't 'get it' on what technology was/is.

    Liberals/Neocon's are *all* a self-righteous lot, unfortunately.
