- .@phillip Dell is the Ikea of computers. Their crap is useful for a time and sometimes even niceish, but no one mistakes it for quality. in reply to phillip #
- @phillip I haven't had a windows based PC since 2001; first I would build my own and put Linux on them, now I use Macs. in reply to phillip #
- @celestialcereal What quote? in reply to celestialcereal #
- @phillip Just being #2 doesn't denote quality. If I used windows, I'd probably still build my own, or go with an Alienware or Lenovo. in reply to phillip #
- @celestialcereal Ah, thanks in reply to celestialcereal #
- @phillip Relevant, maybe, but only by default and certainly not something to be inspired by or aspire to. in reply to phillip #

- @phillip The website/"app" didn't provide any way to mark interesting sessions, I had a pen. Print won. in reply to phillip #
- @myfreeweb My apartment is full of Ikea crap- furniture quality impacts my happiness far less than computer quality. in reply to myfreeweb #

- @bigmike7801 Most things don't need apps, just sites. And when sites like twitter's automagically take over mobile safari it is annoying. in reply to bigmike7801 #
- If you are going to cloak a sales pitch as a talk, don't be too dishonest. At least mention your product in the talk description. #wvpdx #
- @bigmike7801 the talks I went to yesterday weren't like that, but I guess you had worse luck :) in reply to bigmike7801 #
