All this talk of Apple's speaker being an "audiophile" product really grinds my gears. I mean audiophiles are generally tedious wankers but anyone, ANYONE who has even the vaguest appreciation of good sounding music knows you aint gonna get it out of a single source speaker - no matter how much bullshit BOSE style spin Tim wants to put on it. If you want something Apple branded and expensive to shout at while cooking then go for it - but please spare me the Hifi quackery

probably because it gave you a sense of belonging. watching a guy who doesn't conform to a boring idiot like pram's approved style get punished, while you are safely ignored, gives you a little boost.

unblinkingly shrugging when a poster is temp banned for 6 hours for a completely innocuous post is cool, and in fact, gut bustingly funny

complaining about said temp ban? that's ruining the vibe man. get out of the way so that sneip can get back to posting about bose or whatever crap fills his toxoplasma infected brain
