Ya i bailed on all apple products 5 years ago or so. The whole holding back on features to release an s+ version or whatever in 4 months was infuriating.

*bump*

So, I was initially appalled by this, but I think they know people don't need wheels for their Mac Pro. I mean, its plugged in. Very few people would buy them even if they were $50.

I think they timed this right after the release of their budget phone for a reason. They are reminding everyone that they are a premium/luxury brand.

Sadly this is the culture we are in as now. Tablets and phones are only expected to last a year before you are expected to upgrade/replace.

Premium because their shite is expensive, sure.

But luxury?

I had the opposite reaction. Just made me want to punch that dude in the face repeatedly.

At least link the MKBHD vid if you’re going to quote it.

I’m amazed no one has posted the mad tv sketch about the iRack from the 2000s. It’s pure gold

Apple haters are way more vocal and annoying than the supposed “sheep” they are constantly crying about.

It’s not like the competition doesn’t have flaws - although overpriced usually isn’t one of them.
