Bitch Bitch, Moan Moan

2 March 2006

I am fed up with people whining.

Whenever something is announced, or released or whatever there is always a very vocal collection of people saying that it’s rubbish.

Why can’t people just like things?

Of course, lots of people do – they’re just a lot quieter then the grumpy ones. It’s fair enough I suppose; lord knows I’ve complained and moaned a lot here – it’s a lot easier to write about bad stuff.

This post was prompted by the internet-wide disappointment over the Mac Mini and iPod HiFi announcement. Apple watching could now be entered into the olympics I think, but really – were people really thinking we were going to get a touch screen iPod, a new iBook, and more?

I think the Mac Mini’s great.

Sure, the graphics aren’t so hot, and the price is slightly higher, but you still get a lot of bang for your buck.

So, everybody – stop whining, start liking.
