This has nothing to do with that crappy watch, but I figure I would post here since the article is at the top...Did you guys see that apple advertisement right at the top? The PC vs. Mac "give up" on Vista?? How much more biased can this site get????
Yeah, because Engadget has so much control over the adds AOL puts on their site.
No, Apple just paid a bunch to have big adds all over Engadget. Not a big deal. I remember adds for Blu-Ray, HD-DVD, Sony Bravia, and like a bazillion others.
OMG!!!!! ENGADGET HAS ADDS FOR MACS!!! THEY'RE SO BIASED!!!
Jackass.
I see a DLP add here as well. Does that mean that Engadget is biased against plasma tv's? It's an add. This issue has been coming up all morning. Get over it. If it bugs you that bad, get Firefox+Addblock Plus. (I had to turn that off just to see what the hell everyone is talking about.)
What I find even more ridiculous is, the "BREAKING NEWS" section. I thought this was a BLOG, isnt that point of the blog to have instantaneous news intantly? So, if I read the BREAKING news in an instantaneous blog, do I go back in time?
@insert alias...You are the jackass buddy...an add like that on a blog site that clearly slants towards apple is something to comment about. While I understand that they need the add revenue, it is simply an ill placed add if you want to seem as a neutral site on tech. Your DLP V. Plasma argument is pointless, as those adds are not clearly saying to GIVE UP on the alternative, and engadget does not post biasedly towards favoring DLP's or Plasmas as it does post SEVERAL articles about APPL and always favors apple over Vista.

An add like that at first can seem biased, but if you would actually use your brain before you comment about it you would realize that Engadget doesn't personally choose the adds for it's site! Look at some of the other Blogsmith blogs. Many have the same add layout. They even have some of the same adds! Adds are chosen by category, and the mac add ended up on a tech blog. Surprise, surprise. But you get all offended and out of shape by something that wasn't even intentionally done.
Also, I can't take seriously an opinion by someone who can't even click the submit button only once.
You are the jackass, you fail, and I'm done with you.
