Microsoft’s Earth deletes Apple HQ | The Register

This kind of thing is a problem with any big company with lots of departments that is too big for any one person or group to monitor all of. But this is just plain stupid on any of MicroSloths employees parts. They keep acting kinda like a dying dinosaur, flopping around and breaking even more things while dying. And lets not even think about the latest patents they are trying to get. Someone should open source breathing while they still can!
I have been reading Scoble for a view of from the inside because I just couldn’t see that the entire company could be as bad as I thought they were. I stuck with his blog for quite a while but he has been on a “tablet pc’s are SO great” rant for so long now that it’s gotten more than a little old.
I didn’t when they first came out and today still don’t see the value in “me” owning one. For me, typing is a lot faster than writing (not to mention a lot less painful) and a touchpad or mouse is a lot cheaper to replace than a screen. All I use anymore is a laptop and yes they can be a bit clumsy to work with out on the road but most places I need a computer it works, and I don’t have to clean the skin oil off screen or try to see around my hand when trying to do something.
Anyway, back to Scoble “The Microsoft Evangelist”. So when the only retort he had yesterday about Apple pundits making fun of the “new” name for Longhorn was yea but yall don’t have tablet pc’s yet, I removed him from my feed. Sorry, I’ve tried time and again, but I see nothing about the company that is of any redeeming value.

Not quite old news, but it is old pictures. Though one slashdot poster pointed out that Google has new pictures of Apple, and old pictures of his neighborhood (ten miles from Apple’s headquarters), and MSN has old pictures of Apple, and new pictures of his neighborhood. I guess the moral here is, be sure you have the most up-to-date data before you program your cruise missiles…….
Yea, I saw the news on slashdot not long after I had posted this from the Register. Should have come back and noted it.
