Apple drops to 5th place in LaptopMag's brand rankings after leading for multiple years
tallest skil said:AppleInsider said:it is claimed there is not as much "value and variety" as other vendors, offering "only a handful of laptops, and most start at $1,299."
Just ignore that every study done in the last 20 years shows that they’re more affordable than PCs for what they offer (as a platform as a whole)."If you're looking for an affordable laptop, don't look at Apple,”
Which… hurts the brand?The report goes on to note that the MacBook Air hasn't received a refresh in "over two years," and that it "wouldn't be surprised if the company phased it out soon.”
No, no. You don’t get to downrank a company for what it doesn’t offer. If you do that, you have to downrank all PCs for lacking security, ease of use, and platform integration.Apple is also criticized for not offering a 2-in-1 notebook or one with a touchscreen
So buy a netbook from 2009, dipshit. Do you want a pocketable laptop or something?Editor in chief Mark Spoonauer suggests the decision to discontinue the 11-inch MacBook Air as the smallest notebook was poor
No shit; it’s a tablet, dumbass. You whine about not having a touchscreen laptop and then whine when you CAN touch the screen that there’s no touchpad? Fuck yourself."There's no touchpad on this machine's optional keyboard,"
Oh, so just like the idiots whining in 1996, then.On the subject of USB Type-C, it is suggested on the scorecard that users need a “bagful of dongles” to use the newer MacBooks in the summary.
Was Apple voted down when they only offered one color? If not, they need to be fucking sued.For the 13 out of 15 score for design, Apple has been declared the “rose-gold standard,” due to the 12-inch MacBook's rose gold variant's existence, though the lack of other color options is noted.
This is a joke post, right? It’s just 9 days late, right? FUCKING RIGHT?!Apple's support is also praised as the standard bearer for the industry, with easy-to-navigate support pages and helpful support agents, though with a lack of support via FaceBook.
