    Apple TV users chime in.

    So who here uses an Apple tv? Is yours hacked or stock? I'm looking to get one and just wanted to see how everyone liked theirs. I don't give two shits about the fact that it only does 720p or your cool media pc you built at home, really don't care.

    have one, stock. used it for a while and then stopped when they came out with the divx-compatible firmware for the PS3. it got annoying having to transcode everything that i torrented, so having a player that worked with the popular format natively was a lot less of a pain in the ass.
    past:
    1989 325is (learner shitbox)
    1986 325e (turbo dorito)
    1991 318ic (5-lug ITB)
    1985 323i baur
    current:
    1995 M3 (suspension, 17x9/255-40, borla)

        I considered one but got a PS3 instead. HDMI, Blu-Ray and games. Most other potential apple TV users are probably in the same boat. Even my Fanboy buddy went with a Mac Mini instead and uses media software.

        You can say you dont give a shit but its probably all you are going to hear since, well, the AppleTV wasnt exactly a blockbuster.

          What? You mean Steve Jobs discovered that he couldn't overthrow the cable television industry?

            apple tv was a flop. one of the few apple flops in the last decade however. i just got the latest fortune where jobs was named ceo of the decade for his turnaround of apple in the last 10 years. Some interesting stuff in the series of articles.

              You mean for the times he was actually there doing something in the last 10 years? If he should be recognized for anything, it should be for the world's largest single purchaser of Levi's and black turtlenecks.









              I'm not gonna lie, the guy fucking freaks me out. Ever seen Grandma's Boy? When they show J.P. in his apartment, and it's nothing but white floors, white walls, and the entire ceiling is nothing but white flourescent lights? That's what I envision his house looking like.

                never mind his dress sense.. name another ceo who has turned around a company the way he has. apple was almost dead in 1998. yeah, he's an arrogant sob but also an example for many many entrepreneurs and ceos in the tech industry.

                  Someone needs to buy him a fucking suit. Jesus christ, I'd live in a suit if I had 1/10th of his bankroll.

                    ever seen bill gates in a suit? looks ridiculous. anyways, that's beside the point, both gates and jobs are controversial in their own ways but they've both built billion dollar companies. i think that says something.

                          They get so hot you could cook an egg on them. I am not being sarcastic. Still screwing around with media center myself.
