I thought it was a feature!
How did they get this past their accountants for free?
Finally, they added cut, now all we need is the paste.
Is this for TV programmes? I just bought it cause it was pretty.
There are no movies because it's a great gaming device.
I'm not that good at my hobby either.
It was a hormone imbalance.
Because of age restrictions the Apple TV will delete all movies with a dictionary in shot.
Of course digital films don't sync, they don't weigh anything in water.

I apologise.]]>Nov 7th 2009 7:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/
As for Apple... why do they hate our data? We don't ask much from them, just to hang onto pictures and stuff.

BTW, what is Apple thinking with this thing? Its been out for years now & just kinda sat there, doing the same shit with no real upgrades to functionality. I bought one & sold it a couple weeks aftrewards after I realized how limited it was. Elegant, but limited.

One would be extremely stupid to buy this opposed to say the new WD TV Media Player with networking capabilities for $120 that can stream any media from any computer in the house to your TV in 1080p. Which BTW, it can also now stream your iTunes media as well from both PC & Mac thanks to Orb.]]>Nov 8th 2009 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 7:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 10:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 11:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 9th 2009 9:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/First of all, let me get something off my chest... We just got 2 brand new 27" iMacs at work Friday and one of them has a problem where the fan constantly blows (literally) at high speed. Seriously, this started happening at first boot. When giving Tech Support a call, they responded by saying we needed to take it to the nearest Apple Store (a good couple hour's drive away). TO HELL WITH THAT! We're not wasting personal gas money just to fix what they screwed up! Fortunately, our boss kicked a few butts over the phone and arranged something.

They are a company that acts like they're perfect in every way. When you have a huge consumer base that encompasses both Hardware and Firmware, you BETTER. Makes me wonder where all that money is going...]]>Nov 7th 2009 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 8:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 8:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 8:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/
Now, what would dell have done in that situation, From past experience I would have 3 new machines on the loading dock waiting for me when I got to work the next day. And keep the DOA machines for parts :)

Apple makes nice machines, but their customer support is great, UNTIL something breaks. Then its somehow my fault because its perfect and "just works."

Not even going to start on this whole snow leopard debacle. And I thought my Win 7 migration was going to be hard.]]>Nov 7th 2009 8:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/
Dell support is on-site (i.e. they come to you)

Apple support is off-site (i.e. you go to them)

This is a key factor for an enterprise player when deciding if where to buy their computers from.

On a separate note, it would have been nice is Apple could have apologised in their email. When you break something that belongs to someone else, it's polite to at least say 'sorry'. ]]>Nov 8th 2009 8:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/

As for material for ads, I kind of like the 'Here's what our operating system does, here's a feature, he's how it's used, here's how it's useful' approach the Windows 7 ads take.

The Danger story was much bigger but it seems that only a few users in the end lost any of their data so it was over-hyped. You hear about the problem but no one reports on the resolution.

MIcrosoft's been on their game lately. Windows 7, Zune HD (Solid device despite sales) and Server 2008 R2 is kick ass. I'm hoping this momentum carries over to the courrier.

On a side note, I also find it strange that Windows 7 has been out for practically a year and I've heard more complaints about snow leopard in the past 3 months than i've heard about windows 7 all year. No major bugs yet.

Riding the bus most everyday, I used to see teenagers brandishing their iPods, and hipsters cradling the Mackbooks and iPhones as a status symbols. They would look around and make sure people notice them. Now its the middle aged women with iPhones, iPods stay in pockets and I have started to see more stickers covering the Apple logo on Macbooks. The teeneagers that used to flaunt their iPods are now more likely to be playing their music over the speaker of their non-iPhone.

I can't believe it, but I think Apple has significantly started to lose the one thing they had going for them, and that is image. ]]>Nov 7th 2009 10:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 8:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Nov 7th 2009 8:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/Cheer!!! and sorry for any grammar mistake]]>Nov 7th 2009 8:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/apple-tv-3-0-1-update-prevents-data-from-temporarily-disappeari/
