Only idiot would pay $2,800 for this thing (similar HP dv8000t is half of this price, and Dell E1505 is 1/3)

L'ink

Nothing without FUD:
That makes my MacBook Pro hands down the best value you'll find anywhere.

so yeah, if you got $2,600 there's best PC^H^H apple for you

Well, to be fair, if he really paid full retail prices on all that software...it's not too bad;)

I dunno... The "pro" level of mac stuff seems to not be aimed at you (Joe Schmo). MacBooks are pretty cool for $999 if you ask me and are fine for 99% of Joe Schmo's (you) needs.

Why do people pay for $60,000 for a Lexus when a Ford will do the same for $30,000?

Because they want to impress their neighbor?

Does Bill Gates give you a handjob then spoon feed you ice cream at night, right before tucking you in and reading you a bedtime story? Why oh why does it matter that a computer is over priced in your humble (and I do mean humble, since most of you guys haven't graduated high school yet) opinion? Start fvcking something other than your hand and, when you have to support a girl, you'll see the meaning of the words "over priced." $250 for a hair cut and style??? That skirt costs how much??? There are more things to be frustrated about being over priced... So relax, foos..

Didn't mean to quote you in particular.. These threads just are so repetitive...

As a PC owner i shall make these observations:
1. Mac owners seem to get paid more than your average pc user
2. Mac users seem to dress better
3. Mac users seem to get laid more often

I wish I had the money to be a mac user....

I started out as a Mac guy, moved over PCs solely for games. I've thought about going back though, I just don't seem to play games anymore...

Alot of us are gamers. And 98% of all games are for pc only. Of the remaining 2%, 99% of those are for both operating systems.

Umm I'm like 1/10th mac user; I have 5 computers total; 3 desktop and 2 laptops. One of them is a macbook, but I only use Windows XP on it, so that makes me a 10th of a mac user. And I don't dress better; heck, I wear thinkgeek and threadless shirts all the time.

Well according to those Mac spoof commercials, Bungee used ot make games exclusively for Mac. I don't know how much truth there is to that.

love my MacBookPro and it was well worth the $2700 I paid for it. I could have spent the same amount and gotten a Thinkpad T60p, but that's really the only machine that is equal to the MBP in quality and performance. You all can keep your ghetto-fab Acer's and Dell's. OS X is a great OS and the machine has been a delight to use. Sorry if you all don't get it.
