    I've certainly never had a single crash while playing top-of-the-line games on an Apple.

    Just because the screen comes crashing down on you doesn’t mean you won Angry Birds.

    Apple innovated a solution to screens coming crashing down - Apple's monitor stands are legendary for their robustness against gravity related failure modes. A bargain at any price, for that sort of advanced safety technology.

    Education is extremely important.

      I wonder if Horace has ever contemplated the fact that he's financing a pop-culture cult.

      You should really sell that stock, and reinvest the cash in pillows or something.

      I was only joking

        If quality products that keep us safe from avalanches of falling monitors are wrong, then I don't want to be right. But by all means buy a Samsung or a PC - don't expect me to dig you out from the landfill-sized mound of monitors that fall on you.

          The MyPillow would also protect you from falling monitors, at a fraction of the price. You'd also be secure in the knowledge that they weren't being built by armies of Chinese slave-children, but rather by the Oompa-Loompa-like people that Mike Lindell personally rescued from the attempted Capitol takeover, and allowed to work in his top-secret establishment.

          I've heard that there are golden tickets being made available as we freaking speak!

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  I was going to say cheap at half the price, but it's already at half the price.

                    lol imagine packaging the monitor and the stand in the same product, rather than selling them separately. In the moneyed community, we refer to that as a dereliction of responsibility to shareholders.

                      Sometimes I worry about the inevitability of the coming Socialist revolution, and then I think of Horace, and I'm comforted to think of what will happen to him.

                        In any great calamity, lots of jerks will be deeply saddened. That is a comfort to us all.
