Apple really has their shit together....

Apple excels at two things, marketing and design. Their followers are like fucking packrats, they'll pay way too much for whatever shiny new toy Apple releases just to have it, because it is marketed so damn well.

Surrounded by raging douche canoes wearing scarfs and 90 year old women? I'll stick to my fat greasy pals at the PC store.

PS: Apple calls their customers idiots and their customers love them for it. What gives?

They ARE idiots. I openly recommend buying Macs to just about anyone I know, they are computers with training wheels, and are perfect for people with no clue. With a 7.5% marketshare of the PC market, it's just not worth targeting Macs for malicious attacks. You can bet your ass if they held a 90%+ marketshare they'd be getting hit like fucking hell. Kind of funny they have 7.5% share of the overall PC market, with a 91% share of the $1000+ PC market.

If you're too fucking stupid to keep your computer clean, or to set things up for yourself, by all means spend the extra money on a Mac.

PC users, its time to start hating Apple, and start loving them. They do everything right. check this out..

First, I went to the an Apple store. Nice, bright, clean, cool, tech. CROWDED!! Lots and lots of people on both floors. I found what I wanted right away (Airport, a "wired-to -wireless" converter, and a Time Capsule which is a combination 1 TB external hard disk and 802.11n wireless router. Neat.

The tech answered all of my questions right away. He knew everything.

I went to the counter to make my purchase, and he SWIPED MY CREDIT CARD ON HIS IPHONE...!!! He then entered the item number and boom! I was all set. My credit card number gave him my full name and email account. The Bill was sent to my email account - no printing necessary. He had taken my purchase, updated his inventory, gave me a bill, completely wirelessly and without wasting paper.

I bring my purchases home and plug them in. WOW!!!!! My mac saw my time capsule and the airport, just like that. My airport saw the time capsule. The time capsule saw everything. I now had an additional 1 Terabyte of storage. Just incredible.

So speed must suck, right? No!! I was able to backup 300 Gigs of videos in no time and it was as simple as drag and drop. My PC talked effortlessly to the Internet via the Airport, and so did the printer.

Now for more fun. The Airport has an audio port on it. I plugged in some speakers, and WOW!!! Itunes on my Mac now saw the Airport, and played music via AIRTUNES. I fired up my iphone and could control the music in my house via the iPhone! WOW!!

So to sum it up. Good service, good price, great products, nothing to configure. Wow, Apple, Wow.

pc's suck.

For PC lovers, you can always run Windows on Mac. From what I understand it works quite well if you need it.

been wanting to get on the apple train (especially since buying an ipod touch) but when i think of all the pricey programs i'll need to re-buy it keeps me from doing so

edit: not to mention i can't play FFXI on a mac

how different the experience is in the UK...

I'd rather buy a Mac from a McDonalds employee, they'd probably know more about them.

What world? I always played on Quetz... Maybe I'll start up my account again.

they're upping the max lvl to 99 though. that might be where i say goodbye i can barely keep up with the hardcore players as it is

...but i digress so i don't derail the thread

Have you not been in one of the Apple Stores here? The experience is identical to what was described. At least it was in the Regent Street and Brighton ones when I visited. Packed. Very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Had what I needed. Great experience.

So pay twice as much for hardware to run Windows? Nah.

Mac users are the same people who buy cars based entirely on how they look.

PC users want to know what's under the hood.
