April 1st is the worst day for the web. Why must EVERYONE try and be funny and play a joke.

You'd think apple would wait until the 2ndto do this.

After all, April 1st is when they shut most of the Internet down for spring-cleaning.

Too, too obvious. It's much more entertaining when you actually can't tell for sure if it's a gag.

I had this happen once when White Wolf Publishing (The Vampire:The Masquerade guys) told everyone that the company was being sold on the site ( it was actually a promotion for a new game of theirs), and that they were discontinuing everything. This caused quite an uproar. I think people are still talking about it over there.
