I revel in the perfect viciousness of MDN's Take.

Right in Dell's back yard.

Karma is indeed a bitch.

Maybe this will create a much needed employment opportunity for Michael Dull.

Schadenfreude is a dish best served cold. (Except maybe in Texas, where you might want to smoke it with a brisket.)

I'm just glad Dictionary handles German.

Along with the new building, Apple will build a massive trebuchet (a medieval siege engine, a weapon employed either to smash masonry walls or to throw projectiles over them) to hurl Zunes at Michael Dell's office.

Austin is only 19 miles from Round Rock,TX. It shouldn't too hard. Quite entertaining really.

I got a Dell catalog in the mail yesterday. Opened the cover and there was Mike sitting on his desk looking sad and a bit chubby. Then followed a totally uninspiring collection of Windows containers that he'd desperately like me to buy.

Poor guy.

I can only imagine the picture of him in the catalog was an attempt to connect his image with the company the way that (his idol) Steve's is. Too bad he's wearing a suit that doesn't fit him and looking like his house just burned down.

<sigh>

It won't be long now, kids.

You should burn the catalog and disinfect your home immediately.

or

Cut out the picture of Mike and stick it on a dartboard. Great target practice.

A friend of mine (yes, I have friends) suggested using the catalog as toilet paper. But you would just get a bad rash and that wouldn't feel good.

Can't imagine what a bitch it'd be to be wiping your ass with a Dell catalog after taking a big, steaming Zune and you get a paper cut. Better off with the dartboard idea, or if you must use it to wipe stuff, use it to pick up after your dog's Zuning. Or to be more productive, use it as kindling instead of expensive petrol to start up your BBQ's charcoal briquettes. Either way, it'll find a good use and perhaps you have even more creative uses for that shitrag.

Austin will be even cooler than it is now. Somehow.

Yay. Now living in Austin just got that much cooler.

MDN take - Karma's a bitch, but schadenfreude certainly can be sweet.

My god, I hope that doesn't come back to bite us all in the ass.
I'm all for whipp'n the Dells of this world, but a bit of grace goes a long way, as it demonstrates maturity, and I think Apple certainly has matured in its growth and its wisdom.

last night "The Pirates of Silicon Valley" was on the idiot box. First time I had seen it, what a load of crap !!! not a lot of maturity displayed by the creepy SJ character in what seemed like a hit piece .... Actually, to tell the truth, I fell asleep about two thirds of the way through, as it started at about midnight.

No loss to me, I'm thinking.

How does this help the laid-off Dell employees?

They've been corrupted!
They're damaged goods!
Apple can't use them!

Apple needs people who understand the concept of quality!
