apple fanboy

ok so I don't know if anyones really reading this blog, but I figure I'll just write until they do. I figured that I should share another little part of my life with you today, I used to be a huge apple fanboy, I had a macbook an iphone more ipods than I could count and I loved everything about apple. If I heard anyone say something bad about apple I would fight them until they got fed up and left. I was crazy.
But then in about february I got into the whole jailbreaking scene with my iphone and found out about a ton of things my iphone could do that apple was keeping from me. but I was still content with that, because what other option did I have everything other than apple sucks. was my thought but then I took a step back and saw android, this brilliant phone operating system that had a feature that I had never even hear used to describe the iphone os, open. It was totally open anyone could put any app on the android marketplace and if it wasn't there then you could just download it elsewhere on the internet and install it outside of the marketplace, a feature I had never even dreamed of on the iphone.
so needless to say i hacked the crap out of my iphone and sold it on ebay and now have a nexus one which is absolutely beast.
And after realising that there is a more open and cheaper mobile operating system I started thinking and realized that windows 7 also kicks ass and that I could get a laptop with better harware than a macbook for $1,000 cheaper and I was amazed. Apple had sucked me into a hole where they made me think that no other company could compare and it was either go apple or go home when that really wasn't the case.
so yeah theres my little anti-apple rant and I promise I won't do this again but more on that in a later post.
