Watch a MacBook Air Get Blown Up by Firecracker

[cookoy]

what a waste, including the video

Need no fear for they have replaced their old idol of worship with another.

Well, it's their money, they can do whatever the hell they want with it.
I ain't going to tell them what to do with their money.

I enjoyed watching it, so thanks for the post.

So it went it up to the air.

I want some m-1000's!

[citation][nom]liveonc[/nom]It's not about the Chinese, it about a bunch of kids who don't even consider that things were made so cheap, so they could take it for granted, as they clearly didn't even appreciate the money spent to buy it in the first place.[/citation]
Maybe you just don't appreciate the fine art of blowing things up?
[citation][nom]utengineer[/nom]Wow, there are a bunch of bitter, crumpy old complainers here. Yes, these guys could have donated this laptop to someone for better use. There are kids having fun. More fun than sitting around a website all day waiting to post comments on the latest tech news I bet.[/citation]
Agreed. it's all about having fun. Only differences I'd do is use some real firepower (not tiny firecrackers), and taken it out of the city (in consideration of my neighbors).

must be sum rich punk

 

[sudeshc]

are you sure that wasn't a stolen piece. there is not much hope that they wont be doing this to any gadget given to them.

 

[Khimera2000]

Wooo @.@ i always wanted to do that.

I would of turned it on first 😀 pop a dart board on the screen or have the apple logo on the desktop.

Maybe if they wouldn't have wasted their money on a overpriced Mac they could have bought proper ear plugs instead of using tampons.

 

[porkenstein]

Someone finally found a good use for the mac

I do understand what fun is, I also know something called waste, & there's also something called vandalism, but some don't know the difference. It's either fun=waste or fun=vandalism

I know of people who save money or have to apply for financial schemes to afford a laptop...shame to blow it up this way. Shud have sold it or donated it...probably not as cool..but atleast make u feel a lot better.

They need to do the same thing to the new MacBook when it arrives.


Serious question, though: What could possibly warrant barbed wire to be placed atop a residential fence? Anyone else notice that?? lol

Plastic and Metal Apple sauce.

Wow. I wish some of us had that kind of money. Just to blow shit up because a new version is coming out. Dont even have a metal mac -.-

[citation][nom]lukeiamyourfather[/nom]What a bunch of idiots. The least they could've done is film it with a high speed camera.[/citation]
People who buy apple computers are rarely aware that there is technology available far beyond the boundaries of a apple logo

 

[pocketdrummer]

I wonder if the people complaining about the "Chinese" workers have done anything to help out the poor people in their own community...

Oh well, easier to place blame than to act upon it.

I'd say that's true for people who buy computers in general. I don't know many Windows laptop users who could tell me anything about their laptop other than how much RAM it has (not that they know what RAM is).

 

[saxplayingcompnerd]

they only made a couple grand off the views on this video, so technically they made money by blowing this thing up.
