00:00 - 00:03 | PC sales are down, but Lenovo profits are up |
00:04 - 00:05 | ThinkPads are leading corporate sales |
00:05 - 00:07 | Even us boring Berliners love them |
00:08 - 00:12 | And despite Win 8, Enterprise sales are holding with the XP to Win 7 upgrade |
00:12 - 00:15 | Although Mac sales are trending up |
00:17 - 00:20 | That's ok, Macs only have touchpad and no buttons |
00:20 - 00:22 | ThinkPads have the superior TrackPoint |
00:24 - 00:26 | Mein Fuhrer |
00:27 - 00:28 | Shteiner... |
00:31 - 00:33 | Sheiner at Lenovo is changing the TrackPoint |
00:34 - 00:36 | Lenovo is getting rid of the TrackPoint buttons |
00:53 - 01:03 | ThinkPad owners who only use the touchpad, get out and go watch the new cat videos posted by Creps and Butto |
01:13 - 01:15 | THE TRACKPOINT IS THE MAIN REASON I BUY THINKPADS! |
01:15 - 01:18 | THE TRACKPOINT IS THE *ONLY* REASON I STILL BUY THINKPADS! |
01:18 - 01:24 | Why do you think I didn't get the sexy MacBook Air and put Win 7 on it? |
01:25 - 01:29 | Everyone knows the TracKPoint nipple runs circles around touchpads |
01:29 - 01:31 | Why would they fvck with 20 years of perfection |
01:31 - 01:34 | Using the damn touchpad is worse than being tortured by the SS |
01:34 - 01:37 | Have you even tried to use Excel on a Macbook? |
01:37 - 01:40 | So now I have to go buy a shitty Dell, or worse an HP! |
01:40 - 01:42 | But sir Dells are less shitty than they were a few years ago. |
01:42 - 01:46 | Right, that's why their stock is down 40% in the last year. |
01:46 - 01:48 | But Micheal is back, and he's going to turn the ship around. |
01:48 - 01:53 | Right, the same genius who told Steve Jobs to "give up and shut down Apple" in 1997 |
01:54 - 01:55 | And stop distracting me from my rant! |
01:56 - 01:57 | I want to hold those at Lenovo responsible. |
01:57 - 02:00 | Send a memo to Aaron Stewart and Corrina Proctor |
02:00 - 02:03 | The TrackPoint without physical buttons is useless. |
02:04 - 02:08 | This is the last straw. I'm done with Lenovo. |
02:08 - 02:13 | I may as well go to the Apple store right now |
02:14 - 02:16 | and have one of those hipsters in the blue shirts get me a MacBook Air |
02:17 - 02:21 | Oh god, stepping into a Apple store is like walking into the crypt holding Stalin |
02:26 - 02:29 | I can't believe the ThinkPad managers think it's a wise idea to follow in Apple's steps. |
02:30 - 02:34 | Yes ThinkPad sales are not that hot, but it's not because of the TrackPoint buttons. |
02:34 - 02:36 | Why can't they leave the TrackPoint alone. |
02:41 - 02:42 | Why can't I just get my work done. |
02:43 - 02:47 | Lenovo's feakin motto is "For Those Who Do" for god sakes |
02:48 - 02:53 | And corporate customers are their main revenue source |
02:54 - 02:56 | But oneday the CIO's will wake up and think |
02:56 - 02:59 | "Yeah I'll just drop eveything we've built around Microsoft and Active Directory, |
03:00 - 03:02 | and rebuild the entire business around a sexy looking Macbook" |
03:04 - 03:07 | Don't worry Anna, he doesn't know about your iPad |
03:14 - 03:16 | The truth is that the arrogants aholes in Cupertino have already won |
03:19 - 03:23 | I mean just look at at Windows 8. It's just Balmer's knee jerk overreaction to the iPad. |
03:25 - 03:26 | Form over function |
03:31 - 03:33 | That's what is has come to |
03:40 - 03:46 | At least I bought the extended service for my X1 Carbon |
03:46 - 03:49 | Maybe I should go to eBay and bid on a couple T430s with the real TrackPoint... |
03:53 - 03:56 | ...while I still can |
