I recently saw one of his cars (a 1926 Studebaker Open Tourer), and I don't think he would have been against the iPhone.
Gandhi was featured in the Apple "Think Different" ad campaign, right?
That's it exactly. (Plus as you point out, even as an analogy it fails. Wins for hyperbole though...)I don't think he would be against it, I just think trying to equate Ghandi with a telephone is a bit offensive.
How long until the iPhone debate reaches Godwin's Law?

Ah, Kuro5hin, a blast from the past.
Abraham Lincoln would have loved the iPhone.

Of course this (TC & posting) is petty and inconsequential. What social monster would think otherwise?Yet, you are all so quick to debase as petty, wordly and inconsequential the subject you all devote so much attention to when the words of Ghandi are applied to the subject.
I would hope you are all posting to politcs, human rights and philosophy threads in numbers proportional to the level at which you find those subjects more material than gadgets, no?

This is all distractions/entertainment which is why your OP is so senseless off base.
As far as what we do with our free time and whether it meets your standards just set is also inconsequential. Don't turn this into some profound judgment about the posters at TC instead of your silly post.
Didn't/did what? You need to complete that ellipsis.I didn't; you did:
