[QUOTE=spence;915458]People who think that Apple is all marketing don't get the details. Mac products are designed to be intuitive, so the user can focus on the experience and not the headache. The effort that goes into industrial design is incredible. It's why that Apple product looks better sitting on the table and feels better in your hands...it's part art part machine. The unibody on the Macbook allows them to make it lighter and smaller than most PC's. They actually machine the frame from a single piece of aluminum. Nobody else does this...And they're cool. Whipping out your new 4G iPhone is cool. Whipping out your Blackberry is not cool, unless you're 12.

wow - Am i Suprised?
Typical apple superiority crap. Spence - why is there ALWAYS a line at the apple store in the customer support line? Why when I called apple support, before asking me what my problem was, the phone rep tried to sell me $79 support plan? For something that is supposed to be intuitivie, they sure put a lot into support and apparently people need it.
Spence, you can spout your nonsense but the reality is that Saturday, I have to drive 30 miles to Dedham to return the $100 item that is for ipad that doesnt work, I then have to have an apple geek look at my BRAND NEW ipad and tell me what I already know, then drive back to Mansfield to Best Buy to return it. I guess spending my day off to have a slick item is considered cool, but I'm ripped. We have a Wii, 2 DSs, 2 laptops pcs, 2 desktop pcs, and andriod phones. Tons of software and never, not once have I had to call support. I've spent 3+ hrs on the ipad an will spend another 3-4 this weekend. F-that. I dont need to look cool to 16yr olds.
