but the few spoilt it for the many by attempting to start flame wars.

It would appear the shroud of the dark side has fallen. ;-)

The war seems to have taken a tea break.  It\'s interesting that when you are told you can continue fighting only do it in the corner, away from everyone, no one wants to continue fighting.

It\'s about the attention not the merits of the argument.

Let\'s throw out a few ideas:

1) Zaurus Sucks *
2) PocketPC rulezzzzz. *  

That should get us started.

Possesion of a PocketPC should be a criminal act / Ownership of a PocketPC is a sign of underlying stupidity.

Anyone slandering the Zaurus, should be loaded into a trebuchet and fired into the sea.

I\'ll fight anyone, I\'m on the darkside of the farce.. I mean the Force.

Bring it on...

Oh yeah!  Your Zaurus can\'t do PDA stuff 1/2 as well as my Ipaq!  And it\'s too big!  The iPaq fits fine in a shirt pocket.  If you tried that with your Zaurus you\'d look like a big dork!  People with big PDAs are covering up for something...  And it\'s Microsoft, man!  It\'s actually supported!  There\'s tons of software available.  There ain\'t jack shit for your Zaurus!  Fidding with command lines and bogus tweaks and hacks - bah, who needs that!  Ipaq rulez!!!!!  Zaurus sucks donkey droppings!

You are right. I need a big PDA to distract people away from my big penis.

LOL!  

You talk POO.. Microsoft make feature-bloated software with the stability of a jellyfish and all hardware that runs their stuff is an abomination and should be smashed at a public ceremony of cleansing. I condemn anyone who pays money into the pockets of Bill Gates, that evil oligarch.  They either rip-off or buy out ideas, stifle competition and issue restrictive licenses, while accumulating the wealth of nations. Your ipaq is like the wind from my ass, worthless and it stinks. (ho!)

I\'ve still got a WinCE machine somewhere, I am going to smash it now with my \'Hammer of Corrective Justice\'*

I\'m telling my mum.. I ain\'t playing with you anymore...

;-) LOL!  

BTW Zaurus rulez  :twisted:


[span style=\'font-size:16pt;line-height:100%\']* Regular readers will be pleased to know the blessed hammer is real and used for destroying offensive things.[/span][/i]
