Check out the picture PC Magazine used in their review of the all new iMac. Who said PC users don’t have a sense of humor?

This is the after shot… iTunes Turns Five is a special iTunes section dedicated to celebrating the fifth birthday of iTunes. Fair enough. We had a Thomas the Tank Engine cake for my son, they have a web page. Well, it seems they first time they posted the page it said they had 10 million songs available on iTunes and a few days later changed that to 6 million. Was it a typo? Were they counting podcasts? Did they secretly add and pull the entire Beatles catalog without telling us?
I’m going to say that a designer and marketers screwed up and they fixed it on the sly, but maybe they are just absolute mendicants not worthy of our respect. You decide.
Unless you’ve been living in a cave for the last month, you’re at least aware of the existence of Rockstar Games’ new Grand Theft Auto 4, which by all accounts, is ridiculously awesome. One of the many things this game is praised for is its unparalleled depth of gameplay. Your character can listen to the radio, watch tv, or even browse the internet. As it turns out, if you browse the internet enough on GTA, you might come across an Apple ad parody. The not so subtle mockery of Apple consists of a computer ad for “Fruit”, that implores you to “THINK Simple. THINK Minimalism. THINK Overpriced.” Ouch.
There’s also an ad for a banana shaped “iFruit Phone” with “No buttons. No Reception. No storage capacity. All ego.”
Looks like the folks at Rockstar aren’t too impressed by the iPhone either. Oh well, you can’t win em all.
