I guess that means I can't attach my automatic nose hair clipper. Just have to wait until the lord god Jobs decides to make one and then run one of his brilliant yet now getting boring promotional campaigns.

This just in: Several software engineer's and lawyers were out on the streets of cupertino looking for jobs today. Signs they held said "We ****ed up badly, please hire us!"

Yay, now sue Apple for:

1) Forcing it through a routine software update
2) Making such a big legal mistake

Only in America...

Oops...

I downloaded Safari and tried it out. The funny part is, it shows the index page on my own personal website with a wrong sized table at the bottom.

The other pages are duplicates of the index with different pictures and text and they all appear fine. Firefox shows them properly, as does IE5,6, and 7.

Go figure.

Well something's got to be different then (check for crazy unicode characters), or you've changed the coding recently and it's cached it.

These things don't just invent themselves.

While this is most definitely an oversight on Cupertino's part

it makes the folks at Cupertino look like they are not doing their homework.

Eh?

Since when was the city of Cupertino responsible for Apple EULAs?

In case you weren't aware, Ed; Cupertino is a city in California. Apple, Inc. is a company.

You need to know that Apple, Inc. corporate head quarters is located in Cupertino.

Reporters use Cupertino as referrence to the Apple head quarters like they use Redmond for Microsoft.

That so, Sherlock? Mighty clever deduction on your part... (IOW: Duh?)

Reporters use Cupertino as referrence to the Apple head quarters like they use Redmond for Microsoft.

Who says I don't hate the use of Redmond (the City) to describe Microsoft?

It's not that hard, folks. One is a city, and one is a company.

an oversight on Cupertino's part

Carries with it implications. If I lived in Cupertino, I'd be pissed. They had nothing to do with it.

No kidding, I didnt know what Cupertino was. lol

Regardless,

News journalism should be specific, not "cute".

Yes, I agree with that.

Considering how often something like this is used, I think the vast majority of people reading understood that the "folks in Cupertino" was a reference to Apple's employees involved in all of this, not necessarily all or just random people of the city of Cupertino. So, on a technicality, sure, it's a "fun" thing to point out, but in reality it's not that irrational or unusual.

It's non-specific, and pretty insulting to the folks in Cupertino when you are, in essence, blaming them for failure on Apple's part.

Just making a point. I know where Apple is located.

I know enough people in Cupertino, quite a few of which read this article, who didn't even think of it that way, let alone were insulted or affected in any way at all.

Good for you/them?

It sure is.

This is really a non-issue, it will be remedied shortly.

Yes, this is true. It's also impossible for them to actually act on the EULA.

Still, it is funny.

I popped a Apple sticker on my laptop, though, just to be sure.

If it's not an Apple that's against the sticker EULA.

Damn, I'm hosed.

LOL

lol.

...who cares...?

People who find humor in the slip-ups of powerful entities.

So...

...pretty much everyone.

Benjimen Linus....
Everybody gets a laugh out of it but you.

So, does this mean they'll stop pushing Safari through the stupid Apple Updater on my Windows machines?

Hahaha. No silly.

The more people they push it on to, the more people they can sue!

/overdramatic

And how long has Safari for Windows been around. It just goes to show they can put anything in there and no one will read it.

That is absolutely hilarious! Thanks for the laugh!
