Steve Jobs as Willy Wonka? I like it! Can’t go wrong with the best product manufacturer of the past decade with one of the all time great movies.
What is the magic behind Apple? Go on the factory tour ride and find out.
Steve Jobs as Willy Wonka
Looks like I could create a site entirely based on iphone videos. This one is from Collegehumor where they basically tell you to shove all of your complaints up your ass (literally).
And they make a good point – for all of the complainers out there, what is the alternative? Please humor me with something that’s better, or even remotely close.
Can’t do it, because the iPhone is the best phone out there, even with problems. Hopefully competition will change this (I’m all about competition making everyone/everything better), but until then, let’s just laugh at the accuracy of this video.
I love the Onion! Nothing better than a joke newspaper writing awesome headlines that make me laugh at least once a week. Over the past few years, they have also gradually added video to their site and some of the videos they produce are also quite good!
Yesterday they released a fake news story in honor of the MacWorld expo that is happening this week. Excellent timing and a very well done joke news story about a fictitious new product by Apple. They do a great job of playing up the biases that many people have toward Apple’s innovations (i.e. everything they put out is better than everything else) and also touch on the fact that often “easy to use” and “practical” are two different things.
My favorite line(s):
“everything is just a few hundred clicks away”
“I’ll buy almost anything if it’s shiny and made by apple”
“I like sending an email that says ‘sent from a MacBook Wheel’ – that lets everyone know you have one”
