They probably are. I used to sell computers a long time ago and manufacturers like Seagate honoured their warranties without problems. If a customer brought a machine in with a bad HD we swapped it for a new one, sent the old one back to the distributor, and received a new one soon afterwards.

Worth every cent

Neither do I. Our company has 6 iMacs + 3 Mac laptops. Money very well spent.

You paid 750 more. Why?

If it doesn't have the Apple logo, its probably not an Apple product. It's probably a clone, and you probably got hosed.

Same here! I work much faster on my Mac than I ever did on Windows. Very intuitive.

Bingo! Our accounting Mac has Parallels to run both OS and Windows 7. It does it perfectly too, and even better, it runs both at the same time. Who would have guessed that running Windows inside of a window on another operating system would work, let alone work so well?

Anyway, sorry haters. Trash us Mac users all you want. You're the ones who are losing out, not us.

Mark, i have a perfectly fine computer that's most likely faster than your Imac and way cheaper. I have the same screen as you do and i paid 650 less. I have an OS that works fast as hell and never crashes. Malware? Wtf are you talking about man?
You Apple freaks scare me really. What kind of fantasy world do you people live in??

Dirty F 10-24-2012 07:46 PM

My guess is all your fanboys are stuck 10 years ago when indeed pc's had all kind of problems and Imacs had less. Things changed dude, a lot.
And the stuff you people come up with only makes you look real stupid and ignorant tbh.

Make sure to read the faq you ignorant tard. I am willing to bet you any amount you wouldn't notice the difference between my screen and your Apple screen. Wanna know why? Because they are the same. Difference is i paid 650 less.

And you are the one making fun of me?

Apple's not as over priced as people think... if the quality wasn't there, I'd have bought something else.

( you know I love ya Frank!, just don't get why people hate on Apple so bad )

I was a PC guy for years ( 20 ) and I'll never look back.

I don't like fucking with things, and expect them to work.
My PC's , no matter how often I bought, never fucking worked properly.

5 years now, 2 imacs, 2 mac minis and only 1 problem, which is now being fixed for free, off warrantee.

Apple fuck the Euros on pricing.. The stuffs made in China, cost the same to ship to the EU or Nrth America, yet even ignoring sales tax which business owners can claim back. they still up the price 50% on some things.


I've used them, they're nice, but maybe I've been lucky, never really had any PC problems over the years. Although I completely ignored vista.

If they really cared about their customers they wouldn't have forced an unpolished iMaps app on their users, when they knew it was bad.
If they really cared about their customers they would have included a $1 worth Lightning Adapter with the iPhone 5.

They love to take your money. That is what they love. And they are smiling all the way to the bank.

This thread got pretty funny.

Anyway guys , it's been fun listening to fanboys fight back and forth.

Really I just appreciate a nice package, like my leather couches and hardwood floors..

Sure, I can sit on a cloth couch, and walk on concrete floors... but I just appreciate a nice looking product I guess...

and OSX has does everything I need.

I was impressed that Apple emailed me, a whole year after my warrantee is expired, to let me know about the recall though, I don't see any HP, Dell, etc users saying the same... and you KNOW those same harddrives were used in other computers as well.

The best part about these Apple hate threads is that everyone goes on about how Apple creates nothing innovative and just releases the same shit all the time.

So let's look at what the PC has going on lately :

Today:
http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget....nix-h9hero.jpg

Very innovative, I like the red lights, very flashy.

So what did the PC look like 10 years ago ?
2001:
https://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf-JAV.../c00517834.jpg

Then we have the Imac:

Today:

Seems the PC isn't innovating at all.

And no way, in 2012 am I going to stick some big ass fucking noise box like that anywhere near my office thanks :)

It's amazing how being a fanboy turns smart people like you and and Mark into total fools. Really amazing.

Sly 10-25-2012 03:05 PM

Now we're comparing looks and designs?

My computers are boring boxes, but they are machines that run like beasts. My most expensive machine was $2000 and it is a true workhorse. My others were all under $1000 and they all work great.

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I make money from production, not having a pretty box on my desk.

Tell me frank, how.much time have you spent using macs

Btw.not an apple fanboy at all here.

When it comes to a computer rhe mac just fits me better

Honestly... Who the fuck cares? Use whatever the fuck you want.

If it's Apple, use it. If it's PC, use it.

These "my computer is better than your computer" arguments are fucking annoying.

If you don't like that I use a $2500 Apple, then by all means, buy me an "equivelent pc". Otherwise, fuck off.

Yep pretty much.

Whats interesting though is that you have one group of people that haved used only one option swearing its the way to go.

Then you have a group of people that have likely used.both options for years saying mac is better... and being told we're stupid fanboys

10 years as a Windows only user, 2 years as a Linux user and less than a year as a Mac user... Of those 12 years, I have never enjoyed a computer as much as I do my Mac.

Not me. I have a PC on my desk that we use for testing. I do my work on my Macs though. Just more intuitive. I was a die-hard PC user until about 4 years ago. Bought a Mac out of "necessity", and loved it.

How can we be stupid and ignorant when we have tried both computers? You are the one who is pushing a mac away without even trying it yourself.

actually you got the same display panel, which is basically the same pixel board, nothing else.

You can buy all sorts of parts used to build Apple products, it doesn't mean you have the "same product"

Don't worry Franck, if you save up someday you'll be able to enjoy the finer things in life as well. :winkwink:

That said, the Apple screen is a rip off for sure though, I'd never buy that shit.
The imac was a bargain though.

Anyway, the reason I enjoy my mac is I really have ZERO desire to upgrade, or fuss around with anything, and I don't mind paying a premium for that service, Apple knows this and charges accordingly.

I don't see how that makes them evil, they offer a luxury product, at a premium and seems to me that they're not having any difficulty selling their product.

Sure, it's just a PC inside, just like a lexus is just a toyota.

Toyota makes many cars that go faster, or that are more "upgradable" than a lexus, but they understand that some people simply don't care, and just want a nice comfy car to drive and will pay a premium for essentially the same product with a nicer experience attached.

I'm happy sitting infront of this 20 hours a day, and was more than happy to shell out for it.

and once an upgrade comes along that's worth the upgrade, I'll gladly sell this for 70% of what I paid for it and do it all over again.

Dirty F 10-25-2012 06:13 PM

Dude stop acting like your twice as expensive Imac does anything better than my pc. It doesn't! Why do you refuse to understand this?

machinegunkelly 10-25-2012 06:15 PM

Do you read what people write ever?
or just post away

Show me where I said a mac is better?
EVER

I said it fits me better, and was willing to pay for it.
