Apple?s market share of PCs over $1,000 hits 66%
http://apple20.blogs.fortune.cnn.com...-1000-hits-66/
Not that stats can be trusted but this seemed a bit surprising if it is indeed true. I suppose though, as far as porn goes, Mac is a lot more popular than the stats of PC sales. A huge percentage of computers are bought for businesses and they are almost all PC. Very little porn traffic comes from work computers. It would be interesting to know the % of computers between home/personal and work. |

I use VMWare Fusion and dual boot when I need the extra performance. Best of both worlds.

I'd say that's because most entry computers are about $700 after getting fucked at the local Circuit City for the less-techy folks. Shit, I haven't paid $1000 except for building my machines by hand in years.. except when Mac.

The stats can be trusted, but note that this is only retail. So it excludes competition like Dell and such.
Basically, the stats say Apple dominates the market when it comes to high-end store-bought computers. That's not really a shocker.

Umm ya cause Mac sells a 300.00 computer for 1000.00 and you mac guys but it up like strawberry icecream on a hot summer day duh.. Mac market share is under 15% tops.
Now riddle me this. A company that has been in business since well before Microsoft was doesn't even have 20% of the market. ![]() |

Serious Question: If / When Apple 'puters dominate the market, what will be left for Apple fan boys to jerk to / talk about to make them feel special?

Well you know its obviously cause most people dont "get" the mac ideal. They are only sold to the smartest people and THAT is why the market share is small. Only stupid people buy anything but a proprietary cant find software cant find games Mac.. FEEL THE APPLE!! WOOT!! Apple elite yo!
ALL the Mac commercials say its true.... so you know.. it must be. I talked to a guy last night and a mac commercial came on tv. So I asked him "are you a mac guy, or a pc guy" And he hung his head like he had to be ashamed and said *sigh* PC.. So Im like why are you ashamed of that? He is like "Hmm I dunno" And Im like, so do you have a hard time with your PC? and he is like "Well no.." So Im like .. umm so why are you ashamed? We determined its from their advertising filled with Bs that assults everyone 24/7. He loves his PC, yet was ashamed. Shakes head.... ![]() |

As much as Macheads hate MS the one person most responsible for MS's "monopoly" is Steve Jobs.
Back in the 80s Steve thought his OS was better. maybe it was maybe not not important. The thing is he COULD have made his OS available to ALL computer companies like MS did. he though that since his OS was better, by keeping it exclusive to Apple he'd sell more Apple's because people though that more highly of his OS. You'd think after 25 years later he'd learned that this is not the case. Had he really been smart not only would his OS be a MUCH higher % of the market MS might not even be around or perhaps it may have led to MS not being so complacent and build a better product. If Jobs is REALLY concerned about consumers having the BEST products he wouldn't make them so proprietary. As an aside IBM was also as stupid as Jobs as they hired Gates to write the OS for IBM computers. They thought everyone would buy IBMs no matter what because of the name and the OS didn't really matter so they let Gates have the rights to the OS to sell to whomever he wanted. They failed to realize if companies A, B and C computers had the same OS as an IBM and they were cheaper, people would start buying computers from companies A, B and C instead of IBM. |

Not only the whole $300 computer being sold for $1k idea but how about this one... Most of us PC users who want computers that would cost above $1k simply build them ourselves!
Mac users tend to not be so "technical" while they're high in image and graphic related skills. Most of these same people also have the disposable income to not bother building and tuning their computers. that said... I don't see a point in putting much over $600 into hardware. $200 for E8400 or Q6600 $200 just bought me 2*640Gb WD drives which will be RAID $50 Power supply $100 just bought me 4Gb RAM $50 video card (lower end Radeon HD card since I don't play games) $90 Gigabyte board lets alot $20 for a DVD drive and $30 for a case like $740 and I have a badass computer. Stack on a $300 monitor and I have a computer thats GREAT at all things but gaming. Up that $50 video card to $150 or more and you can play plenty of games. Not to mention plenty of nice monitors around $200. Unless you're crazy I don't even see how its possible to spend much over $1k on a COMPLETE system. Obviously going dual monitor or massive monitors you can spend $600 or more on monitors alone...

What does that have to do with math? Like the math it takes to add up that Bill Gates is richer due to using a business plan that allowed him to cover more of the market, and having those thousands of companies paying him licensing rights to use his OS while not having to deal with the manufacture of actual computers, and allowing other business to make a shit load of money due to his business plan, and just flat out dominating the market? You mean that math? Oh.. sorry that doesnt fit into the Apple fanboy handbook.. My bad. |

Apple's on the move.
an entire generation of kids is growing up on OSX, Yes I know we grew up on apple too... but they're not gonna drop the ball this time, SJ has it locked. I'd say that 60% of the people I talk to about computers WANT a mac, they're just disillusioned about the costs, once you let them know they can get one for like $700 they're all over it. Anyone ever notice any thread about Apple, stinkyfinger is in here pissing and moaning like crazy, calling people stupid and names and shit? And people say that apple fan boys cause trouble ![]() |

Personally I don't give a rats ass if you use an Mac or a PC it's your money if you wish to waste it. In fact if there was a way to care less than to not care at all that's how little I would care that you like Macs. As with Chirstians I don't care if you believe in God just stop trying to shove him down my throat just because I'm not on your team. Same thing goes with Apple lovers.

Walk into a school lately?
I have, and all you see is imacs ;) Apple also just won a huge educational bid in the states and will be in even more schools than they are now, and how many universities and colleges are handing out Apple laptops to students? Look into it and you'll see where I'm going, The next generation will not be windows dominated, I like windows and see it's value, but it will not be the majority as it is now for long. |

I think its because of all the people buying those HUGE monitors, by time you get a 24" or bigger monitor with you're mac you're most of the way to $1k... they have some seriously badass monitors but so are those dell ultrasharps.
People who buy macs care more about a quality display. equip them the same and the PC user will be happy with the $200 22" monitor. The mac guy most likely is willing to spend $600 on the MONITOR.

You are actually as dumb as you seem, at least you have that going for you. It must be rough being so insecure about yourself, that you get upset about what type of computer someone uses.

It's not so much the computer as the OS. MS is a pile of shit OS. Eventually you are gonna be able to run OS X on any computer, just watch.
Funny thing is I just loaded XP on my mac and it crashes all the time. OSX has never crashed any of my computers. |

Btw keep on with the accusations from a man that told you to fuck off. Seems like a great road to go down. You should know first hand the person that made the accusations is, or are you overlooking what you know first hand in order to make some jabs at me?

here's what it comes down to people.
How much is your time worth? Apple = 0 down time this year, 0 maintenance PC = many many hours wasted loading programs to keep it working properly and reinstalling OS's, fucking with drivers, and countless other shit. And I am plenty experienced in both PC and mac. sure my PC cost $1k less than my mac, but if I tack on what an hour of my time is worth to the cost of the PC, I could have bought a new car with the money I could have made in those hours over the last few years of it's life. Of course I think you need both to get all the things you need done done. I HOPE YOU PC PEOPLE STAY TO PC'S, cause yes, the bigger market share mac's get the sooner we'll get your hackers writing viruses. If they ever breach the 25% share mark, mac users are gonna get assfucked!
