Startup Riot - The Good And The Bad

So I’ve been waiting a bit to write about the aftermath of Startup Riot. I’m glad I did - a lot has happened in the last few days that I want to talk about. First, you probably want to know if the event is a success. Well, since I organized Startup Riot, I’d probably say “yes”. So instead, why don’t you read what Dan Greenfield, Stephen Fleming, Lance Weatherby, Paul Stamatiou, Paul Freet, Ashish Mistry, Scott Burkett, LenderFlex (presumably David Jones posted this), Mathew Sweezey, and Buddy Ray and Anand Amin had to say.

I’ve also been told that I should quit building machines and just buy an Apple. Yeah, no. The build was a bunch of fun because I was able to do it with my kids (my son now can identify computer parts unprompted and asked me what I was doing with a hard drive I just got - he’s 5 BTW).

In the meantime, I just saw this Wall Street Journal article which talks about problems that this journalist had when he switched to a Mac. You Apple fanatics, take heart - the most important part of the video comes in the last 10 seconds.
