Apple is the worst for planned obsolescence. Think its a coincidence your ipod stops working or wont hold a charge after a year?

Apple is the Bose of the computer world.

And if you dont get that, then youre already too mindwashed by marketing.

Nope. Found it on some web site then emailed the artist about it. He said it was mushroom inspired. He doesn't have any other psychedelic type work and honestly I wasn't really interested in any of his other stuff. Wish I could remember the site. :confused:

Well if you want to know why a mac sucks. i could go on for hours why you are just getting ripped off.
to start on the ipod issue, my mp3 player is the same size and shape as a nano (the new one) and holds 4 gb of memory, plus has a slot to expand with a micro SD (up to 8gs). Oh and it only cost 120 dollars with a 5 year warranty.

For computers, well there the same insides as pc's now, but if your hard drive or any other part fails on a mac, and you replace it with say a normal hardrive (which will work) you void your warranty, so instead you pay double the price for a "mac certified technician" to install a "mac certified hard drive".
Ya guess what doesnt take a genius to be a "mac technician" cause all it takes is 75 dollars or something and an online website.
Don't be like the rest of the sheeple, consider some alternatives dont be a trendy fuck.

Is it IMPOSSIBLE to believe that there are those of us, for what we do, apreciate the Mac for what it is and what it does, and are willing to pay more for it?

I have a Dell laptop also, and I HATE it. I love my Macs. Some people still love Fords. I think their nuts, but if they're happy. :shrug" Of course, comparing a Mac to a Ford is a stretch, but......

im not saying there shitty computers, im sayin they are the same as a pc, for twice the cost :smile: . and honestly its a scam how they make you buy one for school. "oh you NEED a mac to run photo shop. funny cause i just got through graphic design with my PC and i actually had twice the load speed as a mac, oh and my tablet worked flawlessly, and i didn't have to pay 3000 dollars for a pc that does the exact same thing that my 1300 dollar pc does. (oh by the way 1300 dollars was the price before sale point i found it on sale for 650) and no im not a jew, i just know how to shop

lol id like to know what makes a mac better than a pc for composing music. And no im not bitter at all, actually ive used macs alot, my first computer was a mac actually. And I have gone through a lot of schooling as far as using, and building computers go. multiple programming languages, lots of software. lots of different systems. And you are right you never have to use the task manager. when your mac crashes, it just crashes and thats it. Shits gone, no error report, just a retarded message saying "there is something wrong with your mac" . something wrong? no shit. Give me a god damn error code so i can research how to prevent, and fix the problem.

I bought a ipod and the battery died on me within the first 6 months i bought it. I got online and read the consumer reports and realized i had been duped into buying one. I snapped that damn thing in half, then went to Walmart and bought a 30 dollar mp3 player that ran on one AAA battery. It rocks.

my mac does not crash.

and never has.

in the whole year that i have been using it.  even with extremely high stress situations (rendering, live timestretching with sound, loads of torrents etc)

i dunno maybe you use computers for a different reason than i do.

you are probably an optimization nerd.  go overclock something then read error messages about it.

I love how people say they do their everyday things on a mac and it never crashes.

I have my PC running with a fairly decent overclock (33% on the cpu) and dont have crashes. It has been on 24/7 for months before.

People who buy macs because they have problems with pc's, are just ignorant to the fact that they dont have any techincal computer skills.


Mac products are designed to attract people without real computer knowledge. Look at their advertising.

My mac has certainly crashed. Safari, Word, my mom.... you name it, its crashed.

Overall, I find my Mac o be less responsive than a PC.  Pinwheels, sluggish performance etc.  The major problem is maximizing programs.  If I want to use MS word, how come I can't maximize the damn thing?  I constantly have windows in front of one another and they get in the way of dragging things around etc.
