Apple

While I enjoy my apple products it really amazes me how much they charge, especially their computers. Just bought myself a MacBook Pro for school, it was almost murder to push that order confirmation button, $2,500. A similar PC computer would have cost about half of that but for school work I find that the Apple does it best and it just seems all around more sleek. I've used PCs for most of my life and just recently decided to change but their prices are just horrible.

Does anyone else feel the same way about Apple?

  1. I use a Lenovo Thinkpad for law school, it works pretty well. My only problem with Apple is the price, my T410 was $1100, a comparable macbook would be $2700

  2. I 'almost cried' when I bought my first and only Apple product but it's an itouch 4g, so not as much as a MacBook Pro.

  3. I have to agree and that is why I have yet to get myself a Mac yet. That, and I'm a big fan of ripping my PC apart and putting it back together again. I dare you to do that with an Apple product.

  5. Yeah man, I feel ya. Apple's expensive as hell, but as far as i know their products work rather well as much as i hate to admit it being a PC guy. I've been wanting to get that new touchscreen nano just for this: http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/watches/e680/

    it would be the most epic watch ever! too bad this nano didn't come with a digital clock :/ only analog (which ironically is still digital).

  7. While Apple does have superior quality and warranty coverage compared to other machines, their products are definitely waaayyy overpriced.

    It's a hefty dent in your pocket, but its a great computer that few people regret buying.
