The Apple Store is down for updates.  However, this post is not about that.  This post is about the people who think such a trivial event needs to be blogged about and that people need updates every five minutes – all filled with speculation over what mildly interesting product that Apple has decided to introduce or update.  By the way, I’m thinking (hoping) that all the hoopla today is centered around Apple releasing a new Dashboard Widget for the weather.

For the past week, my many many Apple-centered rss feeds have been filled with speculation about a new iMac update and a upgraded Mac Mini.  It was then blogged about heavily yesterday that there were rumors that Apple was going to be releasing new products today.  Then as if these people have nothing better to do, the split-second that the Apple Store went down this morning about twenty sites all posted “Apple Store is down!!!!!”  OMG!

Just shut up and stop wasting people’s time with such non-news news as this.  At least wait until it comes back up to blog about something useful such as a new product or updated product line.

I love Apple, but not the idiotic fanbois.
