Only if you're completely stupid. Yes some of the language is out dated, but you can read it and make sense of it.
I can think of worse plays than Mcbeth.

I'm sure there are worse plays than Macbeth - but that doesn't change the fact that I had enough trouble with it and isn't interested in more difficult challenges  |

For a non-native I wouldn't expect anyone to find it easy. It's hard enough for native speakers. You should be commended really for even starting to attempt reading the play.

I only ever read a Macbeth cartoon, which I think I enjoyed.

Did you even read my entire post?
I was talking about Infinite Jest. Macbeth is easy, not even the most difficult Shakespeare book. |

Two words
Infinite Jest
I'm going to attempt it this summer (don't have time with school reading), but according to my brother it is hands down the most difficult to understand book in the world.
The most difficult to understand (fiction) book I've ever ready is The Illuminatus trilogy. It changes conext and theme inside paragraphs, and sometimes within sentences. The first part of a sentence might be a first person narrative of something happening in the 1960s USA, the second half third person narrative of something happening in 18th century Bavaria.
Great book, though. Fnord. Read it. |

yeah, I heard about that. Quite stupid, not as stupid as leaving a CD with the countries health data on it on a train seat though.
More about it here too:

Yes, accidentaly forgotten.
Or more likely; it's a media trick to create hype. Apple are making it a treasure hunt. When people belive that they know something they were not "supposed" to know, it greatly increases the interest in the product.
It's one of the oldest tricks in the dusty old marketing book really. And please correct me if I am wrong, but from my memory Apple pulled the exact same stunt with one of their iPods a couple of years ago.

Apple, of course, didn't pull the plug on the phone until after it had been found by someone and taken in use.
The worst part of it is that the media keeps on 'reporting' these planned leaks. Hate it. |
