- They didn't turn around and update it so often. Do people not realize that Apple products are "upgraded" so often, therefore they get even more of your money ? The avg lifetime of a Mac isn't as long as a PC, and Mac users are more willing to just buy a completely new machine. $$$ I agree with most of your post except for this. Just because a product is upgraded doesn't mean you have to buy a new one. I've had my G5 for 3 years now and it still runs perfectly. -------------------- Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

True, but then something like the Intel switch takes place, making my G4 look even more ancient that it already is... too bad I'm po' or I'd have gotten one of them new MacBooks... damn expensive Macs... -------------------- |

You definately are under no true obligation, However there was a recent report somewhere on the internets from a real news site (not some blogger) just mentioning the success of Apple, and that Mac users are statistically more likely than PC users to buy new machines. Their EOL for their Macs tend to be about a year shorter I believe. -------------------- QUOTE (Lance) now we have some dude from argentina wondering how to fuck dogmeat |

That has always been my beef with apple. When I bought my first mac, it was the 500mhz G4 powerbook laptop. Some months pass and I look at the apple website. The 1ghz powerbook model was as much as my 500mhz cost. I was flippin pissed. Then the same thing happened to me when I got my 700mhz G4 iMac.
p.s. These new intel machines are sex. -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good. They wake up the next day and they're on fire."

Since when? Christ. The mods had a discussion about it back in February. It was decided that linking NSFW pics should be a blanket rule, except in LRAR. Use QWERTY if you want to post random NSFW pics. -------------------- |
