Default F***ING sick of apple.com

Im very much over it, I'm sick of this shit!
Why is www.apple.com(.au) a piece of shit ?
Its sloppy and doesn't work ???
I have tried it on 3 browsers and its the same.

I have had problems with loading
Apple
Apple Retail Store - iPhone 3GS availability at the Apple Store
Boot Camp - Windows XP Drivers Update 2.1

Over the past few weeks / months.

at the moment i cant download bootcamp drivers because its just not loading.... its fucking ridiculous fuck you apple, for me its not good enough if your providing the service of bootcamp and i cant even download required drivers.

Very frustrating for why it hasnt been working properly over the past few months i doubt its just me.

Yep. Just quit using Safari and it'll be "Apple's".

No apology for that pun.

Hmmm, using Safari 4.02 and all three sites worked fine, and I started downloading the Bootcamp drivers, no problem.

Is there something I should know about Safari? It's been just fine since I started using a Mac earlier this year.

If its working for you guys.. why isnt it working for me ?
everything else works fine so its specifically apple

And why, i have mac pro (osx leopard), no firewalls or bs that could be problematic, no software that could conflict it, and it only happens on the apple site. If I was to guess i would say its to do with traffic ?

But for it to be like this for a few months . fuck that shit

NOTE. I use safari, opera, firefox.

There have, through the years, been many problems with Safari - many complaints of the nature of this one, and several new ones since 10.5.8 came out, so from one angle of troubleshooting, if one browser fails, try another in order to hone into the problem...

First angle. Try turning your modem "off" and shutting the Mac Pro down.
Then turn the modem "on". Wait one minute for all the lights to reappear on the modem and then boot up the Mac Pro.

Test with FireFox.

It's not Safari. Everything is fine here.

In my experience, Apple.com is easily one of the best corporate websites.

Aren't Boot Camp drivers on the Leopard disc?

Why are you downloading them? (EDIT: Update I guess).

Site works fine here. What ISP/connection are you using?

Yep - it's been pretty well established that everyone who's viewed this thread can access apple.com/au with Safari... yet that doesn't solve the OP's problem.

Once a generation, Apple picks a person using a highly secretive criteria and they pick on them mercilessly until they either commit suicide or buy a PC.

Nobody knows why.

Speaking of which - anyone remember Rodney9 ?

Now there was an MTAU Talker who really lucked out with Apples... for years.
