Just hating that he isn't cool enough to own a mac. I bet he was one that bought one of those microsoft MP3 players when the iPods were big. He must be a beta guy!

Hey! I love my Zune! If I could find it.... :(

Dude, Zune was awesome. $15 a month and unlimited music. I could download entire albums without having to pay for them. It was a sick deal. In that regard, Microsoft was better than Apple.

Too many fanbois out there that HAD to have an iPod, even though it's overpriced and not even a better product.

LMAO! Come on brother. Seriously read what you are writing right now. Apple has always been a "Quality First" company. Microsuck dropped the ball over and over and over again. They are hundreds of steps behind apple.
 
Explain to me why Apple is so much better? I've used both. I've used an iPod. I don't see the advantage. Apple is a world class marketing company. They know how to sell people on their products, but realistically they're always behind in terms of innovation. Their computers aren't the best on the market, their phones aren't the best on the market, and at this point an MP3 player is an MP3 player. So what are you paying so much for? The name.
 
NB3 losing street cred, one post at a time.
 
Let's go completely off-topic shall we? Apple does interface design better than just about any other tech company, the actual quality of their services though? Ubiquity is not the same as best or better. I-tunes is a pain in the ass and Apple's "walled garden" approach may provide more security but it limits customer choice and flexibility.

LMAO! Dude you are seriously reaching! Prove to me the apple computers aren't the best in the Market? I still have my mac pro tower that I purchased in 05 besting right now, running all current programs. There is no PC computer that can say that.
 
Natebishop3 said:
Yes, because Apples are for the street! :lol:

You've gone soft HCP! You think gangsters use Macs? You jumped the shark bro!

Actually they do. In fact, the apple computer has a 90% market share in the music industry. That includes "gansta rappers!"
 
Let's take a look....

Here is the latest iMac.
http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/imac?product=ME089LL/A&step=config

$2199

Comes with an Intel i7 CPU
8 gigs of ram
1TB of HD
Nvidia 775 with 2gigs of dedicated ram

I basically built this EXACT computer two years ago for about 1200 less. You can't tell me that's a better deal, AND it's old technology. I have all that same tech in my PC that I built TWO YEARS AGO. It's a joke.

About 3 versions behind! Can't use 8.1?

So you think the OS is worth an extra 1200 bucks? People used Windows XP for a long time as well. Some Microsoft operating systems are solid, and will run for ten years, while some just fall flat like Vista or Windows 8. It is what it is. I just stick with the OS that I like until they come out with one that works better. The key is, I can buy Windows for a couple hundred bucks, and still only spend 800-1000 on a bitching computer that I can upgrade as I go over the next few years. Why spend 2k+ on something that's already approaching obsolesence?

And the benchmark tests vs. windows of the same "wannabe" set-up like you've proclaimed? You wanna call your go kart a Ferrari because you put in a twin turbo engine, Jap rocket suspension and sports car emblem.

I think you've got it backwards my friend. Ferrari's are fast but expensive to fix. Mac's are your steady old sedan. You're driving the Camry buddy. Hate to break it to ya :devilwink:

Here's my contention, I get that Apple's are reliable, and some people just like their interface more, but it's pretty ridiculous when you claim that they're better than the competition. I built that computer two years ago, and Apple is selling it for over 2k now? That's not good value.

This is cute… There used to be a day when Mac users would have this argument with PC users. Funny how things flipped. Tell you what… How about you move this to the "off-topic" section and I will be happy to debate you.

No point in debating it. You've got your opinion, I've got mine, and I don't think there's anything I can say that will change your mind. It is what it is.
