ARR and Mac

[Alhanelem]

Neither you or I would ever buy a prada bag or eddie bauer SUV's.

I understand your meaning but charging $200 more for a better processor when the exact same processor costs less than half that additional cost bought elsewhere is nothing short of exploitation of people who don't understand computers. This isn't like a designer handbag vs a walmart handbag.

OSX itself is quite nice and I wouldn't even mind trying the "hackintosh" thing sometime- But I'll most likely never buy an "actual" mac.

Wait, so you're saying that selling prada bags isn't exploitation?

He said he understands where you are coming from, but what he says is Apple sells the exact same CPU for $200 more, whereas Prada bags are't exactly the same as a cheaper one, they will have things about them different, to cheaper ones.

The Mac haters really need to leave the people who like Macs alone. They have a preference for using a Macs for different reasons and they are willing to spend more money for this preference.

I'm not a Mac user, however I have rare preferences as well. I'm going to upgrade my PC to Geforce Titan and fastest Ivy bridge extreme when they are available. A lot of people will think this is ridiculous, especially the AMD fanboys. There are others that will say it's cheaper to go for dual GPUs and there is no reason to have such a powerful processor. Relative to my income I don't see this as expensive while others will think it's crazy to spend over $1000 for a CPU.

I don't go hating on the AMD users because AMD CPUs don't meet my preferences.

If I had a purpose to buy a iMac 27" with a GTX 680MX GPU I would since I love the design of a computer built into the monitor. I don't know of an alternative all in one computer that has these options.

Learn to let it go.

That's what I'm saying. No, they don't. If you see the knock-off that are being sold in third world countries. A lot of them has the same material, quality, etc. Because they came from the same workers, same factories, etc. Excusing prada but bashing on apple is, really, a bit hypocritical.
