Are You Cuckoo For Apple's Cocoa Puffs?

Posted by Ido |

Sonny, pictured to the left, is cuckoo for cocoa puffs. Apple fans' drug of choice is any product stamped with the Apple logo. Ever since Apple gained a cult like status from fans who act like Sonny, web videos parodying the willingness of these followers to hand over hard earned cash for some allegedly flawed gadgets, have emerged.

Below are three of my favorite:

1) Futurama and iPhone

2) iPhone vs. HTC EVO
 

3) iPhone vs. HTC EVO#2
 

I should note that I am more of an Apple fan than basher, but these videos were too funny to ignore.

UPDATE: According to the AP, Brian Murphy, the mastermind behind the second video is an employee of Best Buy, who informed him that he had the "choice to either quit or the HR people can decide what they want to do." He said he would not quit and was told he could be fired over the matter.

Brian should quit Best Buy immediately and start investing in his obvious talents.

For those too lazy to click on the link in the headline: (From Wikipedia) "Cocoa is one of Apple Inc.'s native object-oriented application program environments for the Mac OS X operating system. It is one of five major APIs available for Mac OS X; the others are Carbon, POSIX (for the BSD environment), X11 and Java."
