The Technological Curve Price Performance

Posted:
in Current Mac Hardware edited January 2014
Apple is falling behind the PC in these 3 catagories fast! The 3 tower configurations: 8oomhz,933mhz,1GHz dual! All 3 models are still using 133mhz system bus with 133 memory! And at what prices! $1595,$2294,$2994! What a pc today using this type of dated hardware would sell for what,maybe $500! If it could be sold at all!No rdram,no ddr, not even in sight! Who can afford or want to buy overpriced and dated hardware like this? I'll tell you who, the liberal hollywood elite that's who! There the only people who can afford to pay these ridiculous prices for Apple's dated hardware! This explain's Apple's paltry 3% market share! Apple better wake up fast and stop putting out high priced obsolete products that, I'll give you this do look good!

    I kinda have to agree. I love the OS and all, but the lack of respectable hardware is a joke. My little iMacDVSE is getting long in the tooth, and I honestly am thinking of buying a PC next year. Sure I'll always have at least one Mac, but there is no real reason for the average user to spend $2300 on a computer. And don't tell me that the iMac is for comsumer. Been there done that. I will not buy another computer that is a closed box again. So I guess I'll be looking at a nice Sony w/dvd-r plus monitor for $1500.

    LOL, what a jackass!



    The "liberal" hollywood "elite" certainly can afford Mac hardware. But if your going to bring politics into it, I can assure you that more right wingers can afford Macs than left wingers. After all, the right wing is about sticking up for large corporations.



    But I do like to think that more liberals use Macs than conservatives...

    Don't feed the trolls.



    BTW, rants belong in General Discussion. I'd move this one, but since there are 10,000 threads about this very subject... nah.
