Speaking of pieces of shit, how about that 386? Oh God. What the fuck was Intel thinking? Why they didn't go straight to multi-core is beyond me.



Wow, WTF people.
The ipad was outdated the moment it was introduced. The thing was built to be slow and cheap. It was ALWAYS slow and cheap, and anyone would have noticed if they had their heads out of their asses from day one. Even a mediocre cell phone performed better than an ipad at the time. Now, it's not even close.

But it was smart for apple to design it that way. Everyone bought one, from people who actually found it to be useful, to the idiots who wanted the latest new apple toy. If that hadn't happened, they wouldn't have taken much of a loss due to the slow cheap hardware used to build them. As it is, most people were satisfied with the performance for some stupid reason, so they went on to make millions from them.

What I don't get is how nobody noticed this before. I never used one until I got my own, and I instantly realized what a slow piece of shit it is. Not even comparing it to a dual core Android, or an ipad 2, or even an iphone. Its slow processor and miniscule amount of RAM make it useless by any standard you judge it upon.
