I got a laugh out of the review as well. I don't know about the whole "alternative" advertising campaign. The whole sheep and puppets thing is just a little out of control. Not to …

I had seen this player at another forum, but OMG, the site is hilarious! Now they are making Apple the evil one, because it happens to produce a good product which the majority lik…

That site looks like something I would've created my freshman year in high school in my Web Design class. Besides, it's a bad angle to come from. If they're trying to convince th…

It's SUPPOSED to look "gritty" and "rebellious." That's the point. And I don't think ANYONE should take ANY ad personally-but apparently some people do. It kind of makes SanDisk…

Did they make that site with iWeb?

Ok, what I don't understand here is why people would want to rebell. iPods function well, and they do what we want them to do. If they didn't do what we wanted them to do, we wou…

I think what Sandisk and others are really trying to accomplish is to break the control Apple has on online music pricing. I have a feeling there is a collusion with the recording…

If this ad campaign influences anyone to purchase a Sandisk Sansa over an iPod, they deserve exactly what they get.

Strange how their player looks like an iPod...or is it?

Wow, the anger! This ad just pokes a little fun at people who use ipods, its not a personal insult. Have a sense of humor for crying out loud.

Still, the whole idea of insulting the people you're trying to win over has never worked very well. Remember Apple's "Lemmings" commercial? I find it ironic that now Apple is being…

it's funny, blaming the carrier (the ipod) instead of the music (the content). the music u listen to, the movies u watch on, say, a sony tv...these things define us, not the tools…

It really is funny...but not in the way they meant. Such sentiments actually ring true to me when it comes to corporations, originality, and conformity--but not when it's another …

It's funny that they never learn it doesn't work, it's even funnier that they hate the ipod so much and want to break free from it's looks, when it looks as much as the ipod as leg…

Sandisk makes me sick, there are so many things wrong with that site it's not even funny and in the end the sandisk player looks almost exactly like an ipod.

So I've had my black MB for about 3 days. Used it about 4 hours a night. Looking at the trackpad in the right light, there's already sings of wear - that "shiny" look that you see …

Hi, This was a huge issue for me when I was looking at the macbooks at the apple store. I understood that many people were probably playing around with them, bit it was just a co…

Clean it with Mr. Clean Magic Earaser...it'll take it right off...trust me.

Ben - you're so upset, then stop reading this forum. Anyway, it's wear, not grease, sweat, stains, water, oil, etc. I have a right to complain as it's just like a new car's paint …

I noticed mine like a day after I got it. Didn't think it was a big deal though. If you clean it, it'll probably come right back. My wear is covering most of the trackpad now …
