Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer laughs at Apple iPhone

[theaghasaif]

Why do his eyes pop when he says 99$

[jumbothebest]

Still so funny ... Is that the type of judgement required to lead a multi billion dollar corporation? Explains a lot, doesn't it?

[orangefeline128]

Do they still make Zunes?

[RavianArp]

With Apple you pay for quality, ergonomy and just sheer beauty, so yeah, I'd rather pay 500 dollars once then 99 dollars for a device which I know is gonna be a waste of money!

[iJonnny]

definition of douchbag

[betelgeuse68]

$47 Billion in sales in 3 months (Oct-Dec 2011) - 37 million iPhones, 15 iPads, 5+ million Macs (which the PC market shrunk). Ballmer why don't you do your company a favor and quit...

[mandrei83]

Balmer he's a visionary...:)) Thumbs up with EPIC FAIL in his case!

[worldofapp]

Womp. Womp.

[Ganondorf64]

Not laughing now, huh? Bitch.

[Oneness100]

It is the single best selling smartphone on the market. Steve, you put your foot in your mouth continually. Yeah, how many Zunes have you sold?

[Axaliutubi]

waht would you say now, Ballmer? Where is your Zoooooon? Does anybody remeber that shit? Nooouuuu. FAIL!

[legendofsource]

So many fucktards commenting. He was joking and further explained what he was talking about but ignorant retards didn't bother to watch that part.

[nsberrow]

This is where innovative and creative vs marketing and business orientated people

[lukeandrewchesser]

same idiot that said he thought Facebook would be gone within a few years back in 2006. well played ballmer, well player. the two biggest inventions of the last 10 years - the iPad and Facebook, and you woulda passed on both.

[eugg1201]

ha



[iyaesu]

Just shows what an idiot Balmer is in hindsight. "The iPhone will be too expensive....bla bla bla" 2012, and he can eat his words now - what an arrogant twit he has proved himself to be !!!

[therichbrooks]

It must be embarrassing to have Apple steal your lunch with the "most expensive phone" on the market when you've got a phone for $99 that can DO music and can DO the Internet.

[pedroapf]

Boy was this guy WRONG!

[littlejfilms]

dumb ass!

[CamBlogs]

What an idiot. The iPhone is better and Microsoft can't do anything about it yet.

[ahmedovahmed]

hahahahahaa, 2012 and I am laughing my ass off at you :)

[Luffyq8y]

and thats why i hate microsoft 

[thel3dguy]

apple revolutionized the way we think about phones. not only that, they even revolutionized how we see the world. steve ballmer just doens't get it. microsoft is losing hype, and its the apple generation now.

[vibovitold]

@thel3dguy do you see the world differently because of Apple? in what sense?

[AryanMithra]

@sonrev Sure it doesn't.

I bet you're masturbating to it.

[AryanMithra]

@sonrev How the fuck is that piece of shit quality?

I'd rather use the foreskin on my penis as a computer, smartphone or mp3 player.

[AryanMithra]

@sonrev

Grown ups, whom have an average IQ of around 100, should be capeable to use something else than nigger mac.

[AryanMithra]

@sonrev Rather use Microshit than be a nigger using a homosexual african closed source version of Unix.

[tiburonroano]

LOL iPhones will never sell! Microsoft sells

Millions a year! What does Apple do? Sell Millilions in 4days, well Let's talk Zune oh wait we stopped the Zune since its not selling! -_- Apple Wins

[21whitworth12]

@tiburonroano 90% of computing market is pc....apple fails.

[ribaldi]

@21whitworth12 What matters more is what you can do from market share you own and not just having it. You can create profits, increase value for your shareholders, change the industry and literally change the world and its perceptions. The last 12 years between Apple and Microsoft illustrated what really mattered.

[tiburonroano]

@21whitworth12 90% of windows fails Apple wins. Our Office is a heavy Windows user and we go thru computers fast, 2009-2010 I personally went thru 8 windows computers, and this was not due to virus or weather conditions, the hard drives failed, the computers need to be Re imaged, files were lost, this is not a good PC.

[Pekz00r]

@tiburonroano I have a hard time believing that. What do you do with the computers? Do you use them as baseball bats?

The funny thing when comparing the quality on PC and Mac is that most people compare PC cheap low-end with MBP witch is a premium computer. Buy a premium PC(that is still cheaper then a MBP) and compare. You'll get the same or better hardware for less money.

[marrto]

@Pekz00r Yes exactly, if you spend what you spend on a MBP, on a PC you are going to get a superior system. At the end of the day i'm not a hater of Apple I just dont really give a shit and im happy with what im used to, i'll never buy a mac or an iphone. I have a windows phone 7 and a windows 7 laptop and im very happy with my decision

[rnicolas7]

@Pekz00r and the software would be shit. And Mac's do last longer than regular PC's

[595o]

@rnicolas7 Do they? Where do I get software updates for my PowerPC Mac?

[marrto]

@tiburonroano I have no interest in apple products and im more than happy with my microsoft products but i will say that zune is terrible

[armorfid]

And what he did just a few weeks ago? He discontinued the Zune.

[tronjhiem79]

*Cough cough

[roynoris15]

Slow old man

[samf8777]

Now I would like to see him say this today..haha

[WuTeeVee]

what a total dumbass =P

[StankLip]

This was funny then to see how Steve and MS just don't "get it" but these days it is classic! This is comedy gold watching Steve go on about the lack of dumb old plastic keys...

[kwayski]

The moron doesn't even understand his own business.

[nmatavka]

He's right with the keyboard thing. I WANT A PHONE WITH A FUCKING KEYBOARD! Gimme a BlackBerry! I don't want glass arm!

[lazermunky25]

He's got a point, I HATE TOUCH SCREENS

[vanbeek16]

Thats what i said before you pay for the apple logo on the back. Balmer gives you a powerfull machine for a good price

[Zero2562130]

@denosplace Which sucks, considering missing a button is highly more likely on a touchpad.

[TF267]

"I like our strategy. I like it a lot" - Ballmer T Clown

Your strategy is really working, falling way behind Apple.

[TonkatrainHONKHONK]

Never underestimate the power of a shiny case and a fruit Mr. B

[CrimsonTrivium]

Look who laughing now while Windows Phone 7 is following its competitors.

[karmahgeddon]

funny guy

[MowgliX]

He *knew* at the time that he was lying. You can plainly see that in his face. Everyone else knew it too. This guy doesn't know what he is doing, and I'm OK with that became I don't like Microsoft at all anyway.

[GuMpAkC]

I absolutely fucking hate Apple. Fucking company sucks. But I'd rather have an iPhone than a Windows Mobile device.

[kenziekinz09]

FAIL

[Narada2XK]

He's eating his words right now...with left-overs.

[Totes1829]

hahaha his laugh was the fact that he was scared hahaha he shouldve been he ate his words!

[kinglukedurrant]

this bloke is a twat ...

Apple has done and will keep doing what others cant or wont do..

with out Apples touch screens others would be nowhere and there is plenty more eg. like that....

[gt1937]

what a douche. I like our strategy, I like it a lot. We sell millions and millions of phones, apple sells none. Freaking idiot!

[xdbuix]

@gt1937 i wouldnt consider him a douche. Alot of other companies such as RIM couldnt believe that the Iphone could do what it could do. Noone really knew the potential of the iphone until later

[gt1937]

@xdbuix He's a douche and so are the others because of lack of "Pragmatism". Now hes eating crow and so is RIM and Motorola. Why did they not know the potential? did they use the device? a bit short sighted from the head of major company, don't you think? Whatever he said is cool. Later

Inquiry depends on real doubt, not mere verbal or hyperbolic doubt In order to understand a conception in a fruitful way, " One must consider the practical effects of the objects of a conception"

[OrganicMK]

@gt1937 It was a joke, you douche bag...

[gt1937]

@OrganicMK That is what your mother and father said when I came in their mouth. I told your mother to abort you. She halfway succeeded.

You're responding to a post I made a year ago? loser

[L3gion3r]

@gt1937 He is trying to say that ppl who buy Apple are idiots spending tons of money for something that you can get for 100 bucks. He is right!

[bigjoesims]

What A tard...it's the number one selling phone in the world suck on that stupid....

[miro9406020601]

@denosplace YOU ARE VERY RIGHT
