Wow...I am shitting Apples reading this....
I'm on the toilet DOWN-LOAD-ing...
I hear it comes with an iPood dock built-in...

Ahhhhh the iCrapper.
I don't know that I would buy it though.
I mean it looks really great on the outside, but I hear all the internal parts are a piece of shit.
I mean...I could never get use to a new OS. I'm used to wiping my HDD front to back and they go back to front.
And I'm gonna get REALLY sick of having to do a DNS flush after every memory dump.
I however, I have to give this one REALLY big plus....
Looks like this thing handles porn VERY well.
one more...
So is this the Mac pro version #2.0?
That image represents what I think of all Apple products, sleek on the exterior yet full of crap.
It wasn't the handle! I've been shitting pancakes ever since!
haha IthinkItsShit ;)
I knew Apple was full of crap.
apple finally shows it's true colours.
Boom!
Plop.
so, it's a pointless silver thing with the Apple logo on it. What's news here?
The news is that it has an apple logo...
You could photoshop an apple logo on poo, and put a lower-case I on it - Engadget would post it in admiration.
hmm i thought all the anit-apple ppl out there would love this. o well i guess i was wrong
The point is that some apple fans found a toilet in the STREET and took it home. I don't like generalizing about a whole group of individuals but how fucking stupid do you have to be to take something that's held amounts of poop so substantial that someone found no further use for it and left it in the street.
I guess one man's trash is another man's OSX-skinned Gutsy.
Now we just the iCrap.
Wow... the iToilet running Ubuntu.
!!! so much for the mac fanboys.
that's what I was thinking. He could at least get OSX running on there. I haven't done it myself, but I know it can be done.
beginning of madness..........Holy crap it is thinnest toilet in the world.....it is not designed for SHit WArriors... it is designed for sleek and sexiness.
FFS. This isn't news. This isn't technology. This isn't gadgets, electronics or gear - it's just an other excuse to run another content-free piece about your heroes Apple.
I wish someone would start a new tech site with a more balanced and relevent policy because this endless fanboydom is getting really out of hand now.
lol copy engadget and take away the 'apple store is down' posts and gizmodo esque posts like this one?
yeah that would be good.
i mean.. i dont mind posts like this but i really think its.. not news.. not what we come to engadget for..
Yeah any fruit cake can put an Apple sticker on something! I am all for a new site with non of this crap on it.
Jesus! Engadget posts a story saying Apple products are decent, people bitch. Engadget posts a story suggesting Apple products are crap, people bitch.
The only constant here seems to be people bitching.
I like Engadget. You guys do good work. I like the humor you throw in. Keep it up.
they didnt even illuminate the apple logo
they didnt even put apple hardware in there
i dont see any screen on the toilet seat, theres no proof that they actualy put a computer in there..
totally underwhelmed..
I agree... I would be impressed if they had rigged an LCD under the toilet seat, but they didn't.
Also, that video could have been shortened to about 60 seconds.
Lame.
iStink!
does it play doom?
this is not worthy of doom
What's next? iDiot?
The first time they have a party @ their place, some fool is gonna destroy those components in the bowl...if you follow my thinking...
The sorts of people who would do this are 100% party proof, so they have nothing to worry about.
Laugh all you want, at least this thing has a removable battery.
You'd have to pay me a lot of money to remove it though... I'm not sticking my hand down that thing.
So, what's the windoze equivalent? I know, a public toilet full of viruses!!! ;-)
no... it's a microATX board (plus trimmings) built into a very attractive stained-glass window. ;)
although I don't think you'd have a hard time finding a custom windows box.... we're actually allowed to pick our hardware and built it to exact user-desired-specs... and for only a couple hundred bucks.
we've been doing that for years.... no toilets needed.
Fail
Ah yeah. Apple should take this one up on their next computer design. True multi-tasking!
It's sad this wasn't done differently. If the entire computer could be placed into the tank along with some type of water cooling, it'd be dual-use. I'd love to still shit in the same toilet, and it could use the water in the tank for water-cooling the computer. :) Doesn't really matter if you flush warm or cold water, eh? :) Would be awesome though. Could be your in-bathroom media player, maybe it could have a sensor to auto-flush and keep a flush counter! :P
Trolls are so totally into spam. Hey, whatever floats your boat: 17news@gmail.com
nono dont you remeber that post a few days back?
PC users are too busy picking spare change up of the sidewalk to have insecurities.
i'd hate to be sub-superior.
Pretty poor job, it isnt even apple anything since the "fan-boys" couldn't even mangae to run osx86 on it. Pretty typical fan-boys as long as it has an apple logo and its silver it must be an apple ! Its a PC Toilet with an apple logo how POO!
Oh, and another thing. YOu touched what Mc Hammer said could not be touched. He was right. You can't touch it, cos that music near the end sucked*.
ass.
*You will not understand what I'm talking about unless you watched the video all the way through, nearer the end. I don't blame you if you didn't it was pretty damn boring....
iShit on you.
Makes you wonder how much "multitouching" is going to be done on this thing.
Now this ia a chair Mr Balmer would enjoy throwing
Agreed this is a half-assed iToilet. Anyway, I would have named it the 'iPot'. Then again, I guess iPot sounds more like the stuff Steve Jobs is smoking.
SOMEONE LIGHT A MATCH, THIS STINKS!!!
SOMEONE LIGHT A MATCH, THIS STINKS!!!
[insert "Apple stuff is crappy" comment here]
Hmph...I figured all the Apple haters would love this. They get to poop all over Apple for real.
A reminder for all the Steve Jobs haters: The pre-cursor to OS X, NeXTStep, gave us the world's first web server, as well as Wolfenstein and Doom. They were all developed on machines designed and built by a Steve Jobs company.
Ahhhhh the iCrapper.
I don't know that I would buy it though.
I mean it looks really great on the outside, but I hear all the internal parts are a piece of shit.
I mean...I could never get use to a new OS. I'm used to wiping my HDD front to back and they go back to front.
And I'm gonna get REALLY sick of having to do a DNS flush after every memory dump.
I however, I have to give this one REALLY big plus....
Looks like this thing handles porn VERY well.
They really pulled out all the stops with the sweet effects in the video.
You'd think he'd have used a white Apple official power cable!!
I think it's appropriate somehow that they would use such crappy music to underscore their satire. In my opinion the noise in the back ground I can only assume is music belongs in the iToilet. Kicks in my feet indeed.
proverbial "flushing your money down the toilet"
crapple
Finally something that both apple and MS fanboys can love. :D
Nice mod indeed. It's the sh!t. Very funny and skillfully done.
Cool! Just looking at it makes me want to take a Microsoft.
It needs a urine based battery. http://cgi.ebay.com/HOBBY-CRAFT-METAL-CRAFT-MAKE-BATTERY-FROM-URINE_W0QQitemZ350026585263QQihZ022QQcategoryZ3240QQcmdZViewItem
And I wanted to see someone kneeling at the thing typing and where the monitor is located, did they change it out for a small one that could be mounted on the back of the seat or what? they never showed the keyboard placement either.
Great now i can finally take a shit on an apple without it being weird.
I think that music was coming from the iToilet... certainly sounded like it ;)
Pretty cool but would be better if it was a real toilet (that worked) with a computer inside. You could imagine some real nerd just living on it...
Trolls are so totally into spam. Hey, whatever floats your boat: 17news@gmail.com
previously used toilet. lol. (dmx sucks)
I want one so I can shit on Apple like the shat on meee.
what kind of crap is inside? PC, that's right. Keep it where it's best.
well this is great, you apple nerds... FOR ME TO POOP ON!
ok, lame article...
firstly, it was just a toilet with an apple logo.. complete absense of apple hardware and software, I mean, wtf was that, ubuntu?
to the peeps that did this, waste of their time.. to engadget, waste of my time which is worse!\
*yawn*
I wonder how much this would sell for on eBay.....
Now I can login as I logout!
could we rename it iCan?
This must be apple's answer to the iLoo
what a bad taste in music lol
Okay, design and creativity A+
ACTUAL PROOF it works, D-
Music on the Video F-
Faslane Out!
My friend proposes a new name for it... "iDoo"
Looks more like the itoilet pro. :)
1. This isn't even running OS X. It's running some OS X skin on Windows. Bleh. You could at least have bought an old Power Computing Mac clone and torn it apart...
2. That song-- "Fresh Kicks on my Feet" I assume-- Is the WORST thing I've heard all day. It's terrible. It makes me appreciate the careers of Vanilla Ice and Kevin Federline.
I just waisted 6 minutes and 9 seconds of my life.
"Some nerds found this here toilet sitting by a street"
I don't know about ya'll, but taking a random toilet off the street for any reason besides trashing it is wrong on many levels.
a toilet to be used*
Hahahaha, he's wearing sandals with socks
Is this supposed to make me shit different?
I've seriously got to take a crapple
so i guess this is a "docking" station?
HAHA. The best part was the ad: "There is something in the bathroom"
:D
