Apple releases speed- and CPU-bumped G5s
I can see this site is just as useless as MacSlash, MacRumors, Slashdot and just about every site on the internet on April 1st.

Sheez. I publish 2,000 hints a year, and on one day, I choose to run one hint (out of seven that ran today) that's off-topic and humorous. For that, you leave? Macslash has nearly 100% false stories, Slashdot has a whole page of them, as do many other sites around the web. Ah well, can't please everyone all the time.
Why did I do it? Because I work very hard on the site and site support 364 days a year. As such, if I choose to do something a little off-kilter once and a while, I have no qualms at all about doing so. Similarly, if it irks you that much, then you're free to leave, as you've chosen to do. Life's too short to try to please everyone 100% of the time, so I'll just do my best to continue to provide the best OS X resource on the web, even if one day a year there might be one article that's a bit dubious in nature. Seems a shame you're giving up on 1,999 good hints for one prank hint, but as noted, that's clearly a choice you can make. Goodbye, and sorry to see you go, but I won't be changing my ways because of it. -rob.

Well spoken, Rob! Incredible how you always manage to answer nonsense complaints like this with enormous dignity and politeness. Thanks!

You know, I just looked at last years April Fools' Post and guess what? sebastianb posted almost the exact same comment then, too.

And for the record, macosxhints should never be considered a source of industry news. It's not what we do here. We provide OS X Hints all the time, except for one story on April 1st of each year, and only that for this year and last year. Two hints out of 5,441, and you're outta here ... oh well.
-rob.

Why the HELL are your freaking out over ONE article? What a maroon.

This guy might have a saving grace if his comment is an April Fool. It's just too ridiculous to be believed.

I certainly considered that possibility before replying, and if he comes back and says "Gotcha!" then I'll have a good laugh at his joke (which gives him a nice easy out, too, if he wants to take it!). After all, that's the point of the day, right? Get taken in by something, laugh about it afterwards :).

That's for sure. Laughter is the key. :-)

His loss!! It got me initially. I was delighted that Apple was announcing a new machine IN ADVANCE for a change. Oh well, one can always hope!!! And I did enjoy the joke!

Please, please sebastienb don't let the door hit you on your backside on your way out.

THIS is the guy I want to party with. Let's all chip in and buy him a sense of humor.
