Different products (edit: made at different time) for different users with different needs. Where's the funny?
Can make same (edit: historical) summary about Ford's range - all have wheels but some are small, some large, some skinny, some wide, etc, etc.

I really don't like Kimmel or Apple but it's always nice to see two things you don't like clash. I'll be team Kimmel on this one because he's the lesser of two douches.

i think those were cheap shots for the most part. im not an apple fan, and i dont like their closed system with little to no customization. that's the reason i don't like apple products. i do think they look fantastic, and when it comes to performance, they have the best mobile devices according to benchmarks [barring the new lackluster ipad mini, seriously gimped]. too bad you can't do much with the performance, especially on their laptops and desktops.

i think any other reason is borderline fanboyish. you can argue that theyre a bad company with bad morals and blah blah, but the bottom line is, 98% of the corporations out there do exactly that. and you buy from those companies anyway. apple just mastered profiting from it. i bet google does some skeptical stuff too. even if they dont, they still buy chips from samsung, which is king of evil. don't even get me started on the precious gems market, and oil as well. apple is the lesser of evils, and theyre just in the spotlight, which grants them more haters. unfortunate for them.

end rant.

This guy is going to get cancelled. Apple is the most valuable company in the world, and I'm not sure they'll tolerate some late-night clown shitting on their products.

That "king of evil" has just invested a few billion in fab factory in Texas. Go figure who opens more jobs in the US, Apple (the king of outsourcing) or that "king of evil".

Apple has the authority to cancel a comedian that is well within his rights to parody? What kind of distopian society do you think we live in?

very funny. He has one great point...... everything seems to come from the ipod/itouch. People should praise the itouch and that's about it. Ipad = bigger itouch, iphone= itouch with cell service. What is funny, I know a girl who traded in her iphone 4 for a white iphone 4. Let's see if Apple can make Jimmy apologize like Ellen did. Ellen apologized like Apple was holding a knife to her cat's throat.

@Zak Islam and any fanboy and girl of any gadget. Jimmy Kimmel didn't mocked the iPad Mini or other gadgets of Apple. He made fun of your behavior. Take a notice. The fact you find the joke offensive should tell you that you have a problem.

Perhaps you don't know too much about comedy. It's usually the most depressed people who are the funniest. The fact that comedy saddens you is quite ironic because this means you could use it if you knew how.

Nice little funny poke there, I did have a nice laugh at the video.
As an interesting note, Saying there was no real innovation at all in the time line of the products. Just minor tweaks or an added feature.

Wow! Just wow. That is essentially what Apple has done whereas I have been preaching that they take something existing then improve its looks. Still, success from an MP3 player.
