    But without useful things such as an USB port…

    • megacerdo says:

      without useful things such as an “everthing an actual laptop has” most retarded product ever (and im not talking about the keyboard, some people could use it for their ipod touch or iphone)

  2. Demarko says:

    hehe his laptop won’t play Flash!

  3. The Banker's Nephew says:

    So basically, the iPad is a massive and more expensive iPod Touch and an expensive and crappy laptop. What reason is there to buy it then?

  4. oballer says:

    yea except there are no USB ports, you can’t use half the internet cuz it doesn’t support flash and there is no optical drive. Also its not upgradeable, you just have to buy a new one.

  5. Chochbag says:

    hmm.. this new meme on the last pane. not sure if want

    • HM says:

      Agreed. Spreading incorrect generalisations can be hurtful.

      But, 99.9% of the internet is incorrect anyway. So, I’ll just have a giggle and hope no one takes this seriously, because I have not.

    Thank you!

    Doesn’t have a Disk Drive either

  8. TI-84+SE says:

    I used an iPad to take down all my courses last year, and will do so this year. Typing on the touchscreen isn’t a pain at all, it just takes a day or two to get used to it.
    Flash content is less than 15% of the internet, as major sites are converting to HTML5 format because the iPad market is so huge. Many Miniclip games, like Gravity Guy, are available at the App Store. USB drives can be used with an app, the name escapes me. And who the hell even uses CDs anymore?

    • Ounce says:

      Stop trying to defend something just because you bought it.

      We all know it fills a nonexistent niche that tablet-making companies invented to sell these things.

      Want a portable computer? Laptop.

      Need something that can be carried in your pocket? Smart phone.

      • TI-84+SE says:

        This is cheaper and faster than any laptop with comparable specs (flash memory, 10″ screen), and a smartphone requires a data plan (which costs 60 bucks a month where I live, a total ripoff), and isn’t a note-taking tool.

        • ikrana says:

          HP Pavilion dm1z. 11.6″ screen. Does not use Intel Atom. Also cheaper. Has all the connectivity options you’ll need.

          I fail to see how something that can run an actual OS, and costs $380 is not faster and not cheaper than an iPad.

          • BloodySlushy says:

            You forget that Apple screens their internet, so they never see those sites that list laptops for reasonable prices.

        • TI-84+SE says:

          I can’t count the times my netbook-wielding friends have complained about short battery life (4-5 hours), slow startup times, and how Word keeps freezing up.
          I should also add that I used only Windows until six months ago (now I’m a Linux convert), and was sick of how fast the system comes to a crawl.

        • Paul says:

          Dell Inspiron Duo (MSRP ~$600, but I’ve found them for ~$450 frequently – without bulk pricing).
          10.1″ screen, 320gb HDD, 2 usb ports, flip touchscreen (built in keyboard – since it’s a laptop too), fully functional standard operating system (Windows 7) – runs any program that runs on Windows 7, 2Gb RAM, webcam, identical wifi capabilities, better bluetooth, headphone, microphone, SIM card, dual speakers, and an accelerometer/gyro.

          Sorry to break it to you, but you could have saved yourself $50 and not needed to convert your lifestyle.
          Oh, and you could have put Linux on it when you converted.

      • Real says:

        Need a life?

        Yep

    • Joebob says:

      Not you, and apparently you are the only person who matters.

    • mooj says:

      its on liek donkey kong

      • Lizzy says:

        That is NOT an app.

      • exon says:

        Bob, we know there are dongles and whatnot to give the iPad USB etc. The whole point is, a netbook gives you all of that out of the box! If I want something that is comfortable for longterm typing, that I want to hook-up a pendrive to, maybe give me a secondary screen, then I’m lugging around so much crap anyway I might as well get a netbook. For much less, I might add.

    • oballer says:

      yea, people may not use CDs, you know except for people who have cd players in their cars. Also, I dont care about cd drives… I care about optical drives which can read and write CDs/DVDs/Blu-Ray discs.

      Also… remember those things call tablet computers which had USB ports? optical drives and ran an actual OS? Yea no one buys those any more because Steve Jobs successfully set technology back 5 years with these toys.

    • Bob says:

      Because why play a free game, when you can just buy it to take up some storage?

    • RS says:

      Apple doesn’t seem to be too concerned with Blu-Ray. Even their most expensive laptops aren’t available with BD-ROM drives.

  9. Hamstadini says:

    Yeah… Call me when a laptop can get 10 hours on a charge.

    • Orly says:

      I called you, there are laptops with 10 hours on a charge. But you didn’t listen because of your mactardism.

    • Fuzzymuffinz says:

      I bought an Eee PC off ebay for $100 (AWW YEAH) and I got a massive battery for $30 that will give me 8-10 hours of battery life on a single charge as long as I don’t use a lot of Wi-Fi or bluetooth. The only drawback is that it takes over half that long to get to a full charge.

  10. Oland says:

    ipod users r a genius. Apple sucks

  11. umad? says:

    In my opinion the iPad can’t really do something other machines can not. Therefor, it’s just made as a gadget and not really to be used seriously. Hey look, now I can see Angry Birds better then on my iPhone; HALLELUYA!

    Umadfanf*gs?

  12. sword111 says:

    I have Asus EEE Pad Transformer. Btch please.

  13. StolzerWestfale says:

    Which person with a life cares about this crap? Got an old pc in my room, got a normal phone in my pocket, but got a girl in my bed.

  14. GriffCannon90 says:

    oh s**t, watch out everyone! this guy’s got a life! just stay clear of this bad mother-f**ker, he claims he has sex!

  15. Splendid says:

    IPAD RULZ
    H8RS DRUL

  16. Yeaaaah let’s all pay 10 times as much for a mac which is inferior yeaaaahhh!!!

  17. Success Nun says:

    This URA GENIUS meme on the last panel has caused more lulz for me than the last five weeks of memebase.

    • Mr.Mojo says:

      Indeed! In my opinion it’s hilarious. But seeing a lot of bad memes trying to be forced and therefore hated the last few days, it’s unlikely that people will accept it, just because NO NEW MEMES °_°. No but srsly, I like it. Would like to see it around on memembase for a while.

    • Anne Thero says:

      that is because it IS genius . . .

  18. Andrew says:

    It’s funny cause this is exactly what I’m using… It is basically useless so I just use it for memebase and youtube

  19. Necromas says:

    If apple just made an ipad version of this, they could charge infinity dollars for it.

    Oops! Forgot one thing!
    *Tries to get Flash to play games and videos online*
    *Finds out that the iPad doesn’t support Flash*
    I knew I should have bought the Galaxy Tab!
