The ones discussed on ST when the story broke. -- nm - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:33 23
- I assumed that meant a data contract, but on second thought, it doesn't make sense for the non-3G iPad (some just have wifi, right?). -- nm - mara May 20, 13:33 22
  - Ah..correct. There are WiFi only versions. There's no data contract for 3G unit but that's through ATT on ala carte basis -- nm - JD May 20, 13:36
  - I honestly don't know, as Apple is evil. -- nm - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:34 20
    - evil-ish. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:36 19
      - They are Evil-ish or evil. -- nm - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:38 18
        
        ... this thread was supposed to descend into quotations from Austin Powers ... -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:39 17
        
        I don't joke about true evils. - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:41 16
        
        where to Microsoft, Google, and IBM rank in that tier system? -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:43 15
        
        to=do -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:44
        
        T2, T2 and T4. -- nm - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:44 13
        
        Wow. Seriously? If Hitler is T1, IBM should be right.fucking.beside.him. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:44 12
        
        (No offense to any IBM employees, of course - but they have a history of cooperating with the fuhrer.) -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:46
        
        Maybe I am unfamiliar with some of their atrocities? -- nm - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:46 10
        
        uh, they provided the hardware and software to freaking *manage* the holocaust. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:46 9
        
        I'm going to need some more recent examples of evil. -- nm - Roger More May 20, 13:48 2
        
        DeathStar hard drives. :) -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:49 1
        
        heh - (which I haven't heard of) -- nm - Roger More May 20, 13:53
        
        Wow. I am anti-history and had never really tried to imagine the tech used in those times. - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:47
        
        the number tattoos? Those numbers were tracked by IBM. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:47 4
        
        really? -- nm - Remlik May 20, 13:48 3
        
        There's a book called "IBM and the Holocaust" about it (which I haven't read) -- nm - Roger More May 20, 13:51
        
        I feel like a whole new (bad) world is unfolding in front of me. -- nm - Nightcrawler May 20, 13:49
        
        That's my understanding of early computing history, yes. I guess calling it "software" is a bit misleading, but definitely hardware. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 13:48
