If your up for a good laugh, then check out the user opinions of the Ipod over at CNET. I swear they are written by retards, most of the posts lack proper spelling and sound as if the person has never used the Ipod before.

My Favorites:

- Ipod is a piece of junk because it cant charge over my unpowered PC Firewire port.

-Ipod causes my Windows machine to be unstable

-"This is a very unreliable piece of machinery. It locked up from time to time (I mean on its own while playing songs), lost songs on several occasions, and was very difficult to get synched. I tried it connected to a half-dozen computers but it would never show up on the desktop reliably, and half the time locked up the host computer. I wouldn't recommend this poorly-QA thing unless you're a mac zealot. "

c|net user opinions are generally the worst ever i think. every review of every product is completely useless.

but i mean, its an anonymous unmoderated place to write some text. we shouldnt be all that surprised.

I think all the negative posts are from people upset that Apple has made (and continues to make) the best MP3 player out there. All the others are just sad rip-offs playing catch up until Apple comes out with the next Great Thing.

Cry me an iRiver. They couldn't even come up with their own clever name.
