Steve Burt

IT Technician :: San Francisco office

Steve grew up in the heart of Vermont, which explains the map of the state that he has on his arm. Not being satisfied with living in the woods and swimming in the rivers every day, Steve moved on to Boston to pursue intellectual gains, namely by attending Emerson College. Upon graduation, Steve explored Westward. Steve currently resides in San Francisco, the land of Fog and Mission Burritos.
Steve enjoys hiking, swimming, jumping off high places (usually into water), swinging on vines and ropes, climbing rocks and synthetic rock-like objects, drinkin’, eating tacos, and saving abandoned kitties that some jerk sent out to sea in naught but a cardboard box. That jerk.

My view on the fix

First of all, thanks for the warm welcome
My first week at Barbarian was great. One of these days I’ll be able to take the quiz in which I remember everyone’s name and what kind of shoes they wear.
Second and lastly, here’s what I think Apple will do in the near future
Some folks have noticed that touching the iPhone 4 causes it to explode (read: lose signal). Consumer reports has even reversed their ability to recommend the iPhone 4, stating “But Apple needs to come up with a permanent – and free – fix for the antenna problem before we can recommend the iPhone 4. )
What do I predict (and somewhat hope) Apple will do? Send out a piece of Aluminum colored non-conductive tape in a modestly oversized box, asking users to install on the phone to cover the aerial gap. I would LOL so hard that I might have to leave work early. Oh, and Apple, you can thank me later in the form of stock options.
