“i crash therefor i macâ€

Postby Ron Williams » Tue 17 May, 2005 8:39 pm

I remember a while ago that my dad had the statement "I crash therefor I mac" on his laptop. I was wondering if anyone had heard this before and if so, tell me where it comes from.

this had nothing to do with ipod. In fact, this was on his laptop in 2000, years before the ipod was even thought of.

Okay, you want the original one.

I believe it's
“I think; therefore I am.â€

I don't know if this is true. It may be one of those storys that gets invented who knows how. I think just before that time in 1999. Apple had an issue with a chip. It had a bug or something, and caused these chips to fail. It was only one maybe a handful of chips, but they voluntarily recalled the line, and replaced the chips free of charge. Again I don't know how true this is. Supposedly, an episode of "The West Wing" was based on this.
