Great marketing ploy by apple though.

This was done in England so they probably mean soccer.

At least all of the fanboys would be able to play with their ipods when they are sitting in a porta john for 20 minutes in the middle of July, if you had to choose 1 invention of the 3 who would choose an ipod????

Apple has done a great job brain washing every idiot in america

between living in an air conditioned house and having to use an outhouse or living in a non-airconditioned house with a toilet, i'd choose airconditioning without even blinking.

The term air-conditioning also applies to heating. So when it's 20 degrees below in January you would appreciate the indoor toilet much more than the outhouse.

AC is not vital nor is heat, you can always keep warm via primitive ways. Plenty of people do not have AC, how many days do you really need it in summer?? I would say 10 and if your next to a fan with cold water it is not that bad.

let these fvcks go to a 3rd world village, then they'll realize how awesome the flushing toilet is!

Yep, my first thought was the vast majority of the voters have never lived without indoor plumbing and quality heating/AC systems during their lives.
