What happened to Gurck?

[meltdown75]

IIRC "R. Bachman" is one of Stephen King's pseudonyms. So it would make sense for someone coming back under a new name to use that one.

He's still here as rbachman.

hmmm, RBachman stopped arguing with me in a thread a few days ago. I don't think Gurck would have stopped. So if it is him, maybe he's calmed down a bit?

Why do you think RBachman is Gurck?

Like I said, go ahead and search for his usual haunts, Apple, Sony and Christianity threads. Last time I mentioned it in a thread, I got a bunch of flaming PMs from him (rbachman) as well. Oh, he's online now too, guess I can expect some more PMs.

That is correct. He wrote quite a few novels/short stories under the pen name Richard Bachman... Thinner being my favorite (although the movie sucked.)

Hogwash, I place upon you the curse of the white man from town!

I bet he's glad he was banned as these days apple + iPods are so far ahead of the game there's no way he'd have a leg to stand on. Hell, you can even get a radio for them no as an addon!

it's a shame as no-one else here is nearly as interesting to agrue with. We actually shared a lot of opinions about social issues, but when it came to DAPs we'd argue like cat and dog. I remember one where we were writing 1000+ word responses to each others arguments. It was getting really silly.

$50 radio add on when other players that cost the same or less have it built in and that's a GOOD thing?

And how are they so faarr ahead of the game?

Ease of use
Software with which to find, sort and generally organise your stored music
Scope of available music on the store
Style (easily the best looking and most intuative DAP)
Features/size (lots crammed in)
Accessory availablility
Options for use (eg ~40% of US cars available w/ ipod support IIRC)
etc.

Proof?

The iPod/car integration still needs a bit more work. Here's the current list of auto makers that support the iPod, and you'll quickly see that most of them are "coming soon"

iPod Your Car

The weird thing is that they seem to be showing an Audi in that top picture, which is one of the manufacturers that don't support the iPod yet. Figure that one out!

Rbachman isn't quite as extreme as Gurck, IMO. I've argued with em both plenty about SOE.

It's the same person.
