Thought it would be interesting to find out what everyone favourite and least favourite bit of technology is? Best. The IPOD The one I have holds 80GB (1 gb = approx. 300 songs!) 24,000 songs on something smaller than most modern mobiles .. To think I used to think it was cool having a portable cassette player Worst. The Internet although it has its good points ie this forum! I just hate how everything is online now
yep you have a point there although once you have them all loaded onto it it doesn't need to see the internet ever again
I hate all Apple products and the companies fascist policies. My Ipod shuffle had 100's of my tunes on it, my laptop went kaput, now Ipod won't let me get MY tunes off of it and back on new laptop !!!! Would have to sit and load all albums from CD back onto new laptop (which I had to). My tunes off of my CD's but I can't have them back after storing them on 'THEIR' little hard drive !!!! FFS! Best: - Android smartphones. How did I live without it ? It's my phone, my camera, my diary, my games machine, sat-nav, clock, weather predictor, plays music, plays films, talk to pals on forums, my bank balance, book hotels, check in for flights, store all my passwords, do stress calculations on framework, record sounds, record archery scores and help adjust my sights.................... People can be obsessive with them, but they are still fantastic pieces of equipment, for not a lot of money considering.
that is a problem with Apple,,(other makes are available that solves this problem ) i have all my songs backed up to 3 differant portable hard drives aswell as on 3 differant computers !!! no way could i afford to lose them ..by the way my ipod is full..well over 1000 albums worth ..been looking for something similar but with a bigger capacity as i have about 300 albums not on my ipod..have them on all the differant drives though
Best same as Mr Orange Android smartphone and for the same reasons. Worst The electronices on modern Bikes. Keep it simple.
Yes agree, smartphones are amazing little things..i have the cheapest Samsung one and it seems to do most of what an iphone does but at a fraction of the cost
That would be the wheel then! Top of my list!! Worst is apple products, you get one hooked in as nothing else works with them!
I'm with Dougie on this one the worst thing is the internet, communication is a wonderful thing for sure but its also completely un-controlable it seems,
I don't agree with all this anti apple stuff. Warm apple pie with cream is heavenly. Cider aint bad either and I've just had two lovely apples for my dinner out of the bag of shiny red apples given to us by the bloke in the house behind ours who grows them.
I love Apple products, we have two iPods, iPads, iPhones and an iMac. They all talk to each other and are unhackable and don't get viruses. All my data (photos, music, spreadsheets, PDFs, text documents etc) is stored on iCloud. So if I loose or break a device then just connect a new one to my account and it's all back. I also manage all my home accounts on line, phone, Gas, electric, bank, investments etc. I love the internet. If I get a device stolen I can remove the data remotely and even find it using Find my device. Ok you pay a lot for this level of intergration and security, but it's worth it. Having lived with Windows from V1 to V9 I'm not disappointed to see it go.
I had Android for a while but it was a cheap one and didn't work very well. Now got an i phone,manly because most of my music is on i tunes,but the main reason was because both of my kid's have them so at least 2 people in the house know how ot make it work. Best- Google maps,route planning,street view,it's great for planning holidays,ride out's etc. Worst-CCTV not sure wee need it at it's currant level.
HaHa I used to think exactly the same until I tried some, took a while to get used to them but now I wear them instead of slippers indoors, great to use in campsite shower rooms too. (not sure about the white socks though )
I assume you meant the top of the best list,not top of the worst list. Couldnt do my job without it,good old tomtom, got it on my fone as well for back up. The best for me, well so many but the internet and google ( where did we get answers before??) is right up there. The worst, itunes and anything else Apple related. Great stuff dont get me wrong, excellent ideas and forward thinking,microsoft please note but why the F*** does everything get tied to itunes. grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Had so many problems in the past with a bloody ipod, losing all my library loads of times. Music I, yes I, have bought from them but cannot use on a new pc as I have used it on other machines previously. Had to use Apple in the past as I was in the printing industry which tends to use Macs in the graphics dept but soooooo glad to be away from them now
