What a trashy article. Was any part of this supposed to be serious?

What a trashy “mobile internet device”. Was any part of this supposed to be serious?

you are an idiot. A shortsighted idiot.

hahahaha….coool article. a little extreme however right on!

Ha, brilliant stuff!

let me guess, the first 3 comments are probably from Apple fans. And by the sound of it, they are seeing this journal as something along the line of defacing their religion.

This is barely coherent and hard to see that this ever made print. I know it is fashionable to knock the new Apple product but to lie about its size and capabilities is really lame.

Come up with something better.

HOW ARE YOU A JOURNALIST?!?!?!?!?!?

Not only is New Mexico a USELESS state in the Union, but it produces useless journalism. You should be a MySpace blogger for “tweens”, not a pretend journalist.

As an Apple user I must say: This is an excellent article!
I am loosing my Apple fever because of the iPad and Apple’s pricing in general. Apple products are pretty but my next laptop will most likely be a W7 or Linux based netbook. Also some netbooks have better designs nowadays.
Apple is becoming quite boring releasing new products and updates. Their marketing is not working for me anymore. I feel I am looking at another money swallowing machine. I am tired of that.
The iPad is not hot. It is not pretty and it is not practicle.
I am loosing touch with Apple.

Need to take a crap? We have an app for that the new iCrap. The ipad is not all that great. I could buy a $500 laptop that does soo much more that this shiny turd with a apple logo on it. Watch out the apple cult has gotten wind of your article and they are out for BLOOD!

This article has value insofar that readers clicked the headline and the advertizements on this site generated revenue for the DailyLobo. Job well done… I was duped into landing on this page!

I’ll remember that “Daily Lobo” is horse poo when it comes to professional analysis.

I’ve been an apple person since the 128k when dino’s ruled the earth, and I’ve never liked anything about PCs, despite having had to use them in many job positions. Apple products are just that. Products. Apple-heads are like scientologists, they’ll jump up and down on your couch and pull a Tom Cruise on you because they’re empty headed losers led by the nose. The bottom line is, this product stinks. Period. It serves absolutely no purpose and seems deliberately designed to frustrate. Steve Jobs can blow this one out his kazoo. Don’t take a bite out of this poison apple. I’ll never go PC, but I have no use for designer junk gadgets. iMoney… that’s all this is about. Honest article – from a loyal Mac user.

It’s great to watch the Apple geeks heads explode after reading this article, if they were actually able to make it through the whole thing. I loved my iPod and now my iPhone but I will not be barging into an Apple store demanding an iPad.. I have some common sense.

I’ve been working with computers since the 1970’s (punch cards, mag tapes, Fortran, Basic, etc.) and I find it so humorous how people (and so called “IT pros”)get all worked up in the PC v Apple debate. Listen up you all: They are both just computers, one’s not better than the other only different (and only as good as the person operating it), just like any technology that is man-made, both will have flaws and its share of lemons. I’ve worked with both Apple/Mac’s and PC’s that are garbage, regardless what the so-called “experts” say. It’s amazing how so called “adults” will act so childishly about their “pretty tech toys” and are so obsessed by them.
When a computer that can write poetry or paint (a couple of my hobbies) comes along, then I’ll get excited about it, until then, they are just a tool or a toy, nothing to get my life obsessed about to the point of arguing with or hating someone about.

Though I work in the tech field, there are times I don’t turn my computer on and I turn my cell phone off, so I can live and enjoy Life itself with the best computer in the world, my mind.

Technology has truly become the opiate of the masses.

Does anyone remember the electric carving knife? GE promoted it as the most indispensible kitchen tool ever. As it turns out, it was no better than any other knife. In fact in the hands of the wrong people, your Thanksgiving turkey would look like it was carved up with a chainsaw. We the mass consumer of useless products, we are sheep to the slaughter of our disposable incomes.

The CULT OF OBAMA!

THE CULT OF OBAMA!

You guys are so dumb, this isn’t a serious article. It’s a fun column about an iPad, and it does make some good points. You’re seriously using this as proof that New Mexico can’t produce good journalists? Get a life.

Sounds like an apple wannabe complaining about tech they fear or secretly desire. Whether apple or microsoft ipad or tablet pc, it is just another electronic toy, use it or not who cares. Apple always comes up with the latest greatest gadgets, if you don’t like them don’t buy them, simple. Bashing those that do like them is just lame, feel free to tune in your am radio and rock out with your out of date self, the world will just pass you by like you’re not even there.

This article is funny, but how did an editor ever approve the grammar problems??? There is a “then” that should obviously be “than”. A proper sentence would also include something that will result “when this behavior spreads”. These are basic agreement problems that should be understood before one gets to college. To see them in a daily college paper is embarrassing.

No way. He used it right. It’s then, not than.

Are you making an argument for or against the iPad, all tech sites, CNet, include have shown that the iPad will have no usb, camera, or flash capabilities. Did you mix up the columns or what?

In the first paragraph “then” should absolutely be “than.” “Then” is used when listing events chronologically, i.e: I went to the store THEN went to the movies. “Than” is used when when comparing amounts, i.e. “more THAN just its name wrong,” as it should have been written above.

too bad no one cares about anyone but their self. Obama is just a pawn, yet no one cares. Obama is the new and improved Hitler.
