You should not be allowed to use computers anymore if you:
  • Cannot follow illustrated directions.
  • Think the "www" is a required part of any web address.
  • Refer to your computer as "the CPU" or "the hard drive."
  • Don't understand the difference between a mail server and a web server.
  • Think "the web" and "the Internet" are synonyms.

    "BlackBerry Shit-Storm" more like it.

    When this this was announced in the summer it looked like it was going to be über-cool and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it.

    But wait I did. For months. I signed up for news on the release date and waited. "Out in time for Christmas" I was promised.
