Volumes of nonsense.

So a clever teaser that sat online for less than 24 hours is "hype" now. [?]

Methinks thou doth protest too much.

Edit:

But actually, having to at least mention the decades-long battle between Apple Corps. and Apple Inc. to provide some proper perspective (and context) takes more than a few words.

Perhaps it was all the "volumes" of pooh-poohing that i've sifted through since the 16th that may have motivated the extended verbiage in my reply. Compared to those original two sentences Apple put up on their homepage, the mind-boggling reactions by millions of posters is what qualifies as "hype". [in my mind anyway.]

"Oops, I did it again" / "I never meant to hurt you"
 
@ Hal Itosis ... I must confess I haven't a clue what that meant ^

... I just liked that other members post more than yours I guess ... for a reason that's of no consequence now.

I do like however, fully comprehend the addition at the bottom of your post ... it has helped to resolve the sudden paranoia that gripped me as I read the first few sentences of your post ...

I don't like rubbing people up the wrong way and apologise if it came across that way in my previous post.

I'm going to add "The Beatles" to the list of things one should never talk about:
1) Religion
2) Politics
3) The Beatles

Fourth thing to add: problems with Apple Computers ;)

Well, the forums perhaps, but… I meant around Windows and Linux likers ;)

@Hal Itosis
"overreaction" no "opinion" yes.
"hype" everything Apple does is pretty much hype.
"The fact that some folks are ignorant of history" I am not just completely not interested in ploughing any money into iTunes or Apple Corps.
"but i'm delighted that many people didn't "get it". I did i just dont give a **** about it ;-)

Anyway a lot of hot air over nothing is always great to see !

In the context of Beatles and Apple, i'm wondering why so many even think their opinion matters. What are your accomplishments (relative to those two entities)?

LOL. Well if they reformed at this stage to release some new material I think the half of the band that are actually deceased should be able to shed some light on the afterlife.

Hey, they could incorporate songs of angels and demons. Or write "Heaven and Hell" ;)
