god love the onion
Hilarious. I’d bet fan boi’s would buy it if actually produced.
So how do you write with it?
# 3 Benjamin said, “So how do you write with it?”
It is in all Apple stores starting today. You got to try it to see how simple it is.
Im running down to stand in line this evening.
HA! Gotta love the Onion.
As a Mac owner I’ve got to say that I thought this was hilarious. Disaster President is still my favourite in the last few months.
The Lisa. Completely stupid thing. Especially the part about how the wonderful new battery will power it for NINETEEN minutes before needing a recharge. I guess you need a long extension cord if you want to take it out of the house.
This is what you get when your CEO starves his body of vital nutrients. Brain stops working so well.
Oh my. The greatest thing about this post is reading the comments from those who don’t know… well, I’ll leave it at that.
But the video pretty much sums up my feeling about Apple.
Wretched Gnu (great name), the onion does so many little things right that it looks real. The background posters and decor, the people wandering around, the awesome fake hardware and software, etc.
I’m always impressed by their attention to detail.

Shhh.
I remember seeing the first Macintosh model when it came out. For a while the keyboard was sold separately. I was told that because the Mac used the revolutionary “mouse” pointing device that a keyboard was unnecessary.
Haw. Good one. I wasn’t paying close attention, and didn’t realize what was going on until the guy said “everything is just a couple of hundred mouse clicks away”. Until then, it seemed reasonable to think that Apple would come out with such a product. Don’t they still ship their computers with the lame 2-button mouse?
There’s a 40gb model for a bit over $9000 …
They should just dump the wheel in favor of a bluetooth suppository…
Well, considering that the entire world seems to be out there texting on cell phones with number keyboards, I think it could catch on!
Oh, except they have to raise the base price to give it more snob appeal.
Someone wake me up when The Onion is funny again.
Loved the “Predictive Sentence Technology”. What a timesaver!

Perfect. Hunt and peck has been replaced by spin and peck. Pretty funny stuff.
Onion, yep i know them..
BUT,
the MOUSe isnt the best device for many things.
And how many of you KNOW the keyboard, and have HUNTEd for a better one?
Those of you in gaming, and use the Keyboard, KNOW that MICE CAN SUCK.
I’m sure uncle Dave will love his as much as he loves his iphone.?*^)
#24: No iPhone. Just a Macbook and first gen Mac Mini.
I’m waiting for an iPhone that has a full sized keyboard.
12,
