Wankers argument.
Apple products are as bad as any others. If the fanbois think otherwise, more power to you.

I have never met an authentic and or talented designer that worked on a PC. I do know some amazing accountants, video gamers and slackers that use a PC. Please name me one, just one talent designer that uses a PC and post his/her website link here, thank you.

If you buy an Apple and don't realize you're paying at least in part for image, then you shouldn't buy an Apple. Regardless, isn't good design worth it? Even if Incase products fell apart in a few months, wouldn't you have enjoyed those few months relatively more than a few months with some knockoff casemaker?
The best you could do is argue that both Dell and Apple have pluses and minuses that correspond directly to the different consumers they target. There's no way in hell PCs in general are better overall than Apple.
- Apple's case hardware is worth it. It can be described as beautiful, even.monospaced_III

- why does it rotate clockwise?ribit
- no shit, clock-wise rotation makes it just about impossible to readmonospaced_III
- its from a Ghost in the shell: SAC
I believe it rotates like this because its a japanese cartoon.

I've made warranty claims after the warranty period and they have fixed it, worth a try... (these things all broke just after the 12 month warranty ended?)

i am a mac advocate but i do have a massive issue. there is no support for legacy mac products. i've got a pre-intel G5 which is virtually a paper weight because i can't upgrade any of the software.
- 'any'?ribit
- I have a G4 powerbook, still works, how is it a paperweight unless you are a version junkie?comicsans
- Have updates for 10.5 stopped coming?raf
- all new tingatings is intel onlyerikjonsson
- I have the Snow update, you're not missing out and I'm sure they'll support 10.5 too, at least security-wiseraf

Times my Macbook Pro has shut down unexpectedly since March 2008: 1, maybe 2.
Times my PC shut down in a year before I gave up and got a Mac. DOZENS AND DOZENS AND DOZENS.

I work on a PC. Mainly because that was the first OS that I used.
I don't understand the assumption that I'm a poor designer simply because of the platform I'm using. Illustrator is the same product on both machines.

Do you guys just sit and look at the OSX desktop and masturbate all day, or do you use software on these machines? Web browser, email client, graphics software has fuck all to do with the OS once it is launched.
- Wow, someone with some sense!
well said sir.Hombre_Lobo - I sit around and masturbate all day.utopian

Ive got a $500 HP laptop that's 8 years old and still rockin. Cant get much over a year out of this $2000 apple. Shit products. Im off the bandwagon.Glad to hear it!
Dont get me wrong, the way mac OS works is great, modular OS is the way forward (which is why i dual boot xp-ubuntu), but i just dont get on with Mac's. They are quite over priced too
.
That and ive also met too many pretentious apple bumming iphone riding wankers at design events to ever want to own a mac.

sorry to hear about your problems.
can i suggest some canned air to blow your keyboard and drive out to fix the stuck key and disc drive problem and then find a better mouse. this solution would be cheaper than buying a new computer and this way you still get to still work in OSX but can still have windows running on it. I wouldn't go out and buy a PC just for the reasons you mentioned. try what some of us are suggesting before doing anything drastic.
- well well....look at mr. voice of reason here.marychain
