Apple "In horror honor of yesterday's announcement of the newly-designed third-generation iPod nano, we here at Infinite Loop have taken some time to look back at the last 10 years of Apple product design in order to get some perspective on just how hideous the new Apple audio player is (to some of us). This list isn't to say that some of these Apple monstrosities don't have a special place in our heart, though."

Apparently, his logic is a bit lost on me as well. According to that post, if you criticize the design because it's ugly and dismiss apple's product, you're an apple fanboy. If you admit to already owning one of the overpriced little bastards, claim it's almost the same as the previous one, and mindlessly defend apple, that makes you not a fanboy? Clearly the meaning of fanboy is different in this alternate universe.

...now you're a fanboy for owning a single item from a specific vendor (Apple, in this case) and then dare yourself to go one step further and partly defend a revision of the product you own, yet while you admit to a certain feature you'd like to see from this particular product?

It actually sounds to me as if he own one of the older Nanos... Read the 'already have an 8GB Nano' statement ...

Then you'd easily become a Linux Zealot for using the 2.6.20 kernel while wanting a feature from one of the newer kernels and yet dislike the increasing size of it ...

By the way ... Why all this silly name calling anyways? It just seems sooo preschool to me ...
