Mac is Whack
->
So I was browsing the Internet and found a recent study by Mindset Media contrasting Mac and PC users.
First off, let me rant about Mac. It is expensive. It troubles me to think that people will pay the outrageous prices they do for an Apple computer. The MacBook, the bottom-feeder of Apple computers, starts at $1099 and is certainly nothing special. However, if you do want to upgrade it’s poor specs, you will pay prices that make me sick. Want an extra gig of ram? $150. Three gigs of ram? An astounding $850!! I have four gigs of ram in my desktop, and if i remember, i paid $60 dollars for two good gigs of ram. Steve Jobs then decided to create the Macbook Air. I admit that the Air is incredibly thin. BUT, the price is outrageous for the product. The Air starts at a measly $1799 and the upgrade, which only gives you .2 GHz of extra speed and less HD space at only 64 gigs, will cost you $3098…WHAT A DEAL!! The Air comes with either a 1.6 or 1.8 GHz processor-very slow at best. Not only are their computers overpriced, but Apple TV, iPhone, ipod…the list…
