Can you please explain it to me?
Seems like everyone who spends their money on product they want eats shit nowadays.
>Best display
>Worst price/performance
Fuck you apple
Apple is nice and all, and i love the Macbook Pros and theres a special place in my heart for the trashcan, buuuuut...
Google took the concept of the macbook, and made it better in the form of the Google Chromebook Pixel. Which is god tier in the same price range.
>>51280908
Pixel 2 has a better display. Just sayin'
>>51280935
>Pixel 2
>64b color space
Are you joking? That's fucking atrocious
>People seriously advocating chromebooks as alternatives for people under the age of 70.
Unless, literally, the only thing you use your machine for is a web browser why bother?
>>51281172
linux fgt
Pixel 2 is actually incredibly well constructed despite the above fgt complaining about 64b color space. Assuming you don't need very specialized software that doesn't happen to have an adequate linux counterpart, it easily bests a macbook.
Maybe don't have shitty pre-conceived notions without physically trying a device yourself?

Yes, I forgot how many millions of adobe/autodesk professionals exist out there. Get fucked kid with your shitty straw man arguments.
>>51281260
expandable storage, next retarded complaint please basement dweller
>>51280920
have you actually physically tried out the pixel? it looks and feels like shit. i think its because of the aspect ratio it just feels like a toy laptop. also is such a blatant mbp clone
God what a sexy machine
>>51281172
But that is all the Macbook is good for, anything more intensive would run slow as fuck on its 800MHz processor.
>>51280437
Pricy but looks nice.
Average hardware.
Awful keyboard.
Majority of users are college girls that use them as Facebook machines/word processors.
Awful OS.
Nah I don't want one
>>51280466
Got damn thats hot
Sour grapes: the thread.
Just find one at a pawn shop. I got a mid 2012 MBP over a year ago for $600. Works fine.
>>51282204
>have you actually physically tried out the pixel? it looks and feels like shit.
Are you kidding me? Have YOU? It does macbook better than Apple does and the aspect ratio is god like in comparison.
Apple quality :^)
>>51280877
you don't even understand green text, of course you don't understand the hand shit meme
>>51282590
you bought a 2 year old laptop for $600?
what the fuck
>>51282629
i don't know man. I have tried it out a few times and I just can't stand it.
I think it's because it came after the macbook pro, and it objectively looks very similar to it. it just feels like a blatant copy. so unoriginal. it's a copy of a laptop i don't even like. also feels a bit clunky
>>51280437
>colourful graphs and pie charts as example "work"
do people even do this?
I've never seen a single pie chart in my (limited) corporate experience.

Microsoft
>>51282719
I bought it in early 2014. Yeah a lot but the older Mac was 6 years old and showing its age. Apple was selling that model for around 1200 at the time, alongside their soldered retina line.

It's beautiful. No more grease from keys on the screen.

>OPs image
That's just like the promo images Microsoft did for W8 and the Surface.
Seems they are just too ahead of the curve.
>>51282868
Apple's beautiful internal design. It is so perfectly engineered that screws go in sideways.
There's nothing wrong with the Macbook Air running at 800 mHz. It's to maximize the battery life.
>>51283384
ummm... but you did that yourself thou autist...
>>51281214
But MB offers you more than Pixel 2 for less if you want to use Loonix too.
>>51283203
>having greasy enough fingers to transfer the grease to the fucking screen
Are all MS users like that?
>>51283413
>muh mHz matters
It got the performance above a 2011 Air in worst case scenario, perfectly reasonable for most laptop tasks. If you need noticeable more, get a desktop. What's so hard about it?
>>51283444
What are you fucking talking about? That is literally how the fucking thing came from the factory. It even has the original material still on it.
>>51283502
>>having greasy enough fingers to transfer the grease to the fucking screen
>Are all MS users like that?
Everyone is like that. It's called being alive.
>>51282428
but the processors are like 2.3+ GHz u dip. lmoa what are u an idiot. what are u from 2001. hello! your PDA is obsolete! welcome to the age of the Gigahert! fat stagnant faggot fuck off with your bullshit throttling meme
>>51283514
ummm, sure thing bro ;)
>>51283532
More like being alive and then consuming a pack of chips while typing and then not bothering to clean up or something. At least that's my guess how some people manage to make their keyboards look so scary.
>all these mad poorfags
>>51283582
Certainly the case for some people.
>>51283579
Prove me wrong, take a picture of yours. It doesn't even make sense that the screw would normally be upright and then somehow sideways if everything is in the same spot. You are a fucking tool.
>>51283606
I love this meme. It is so much more memerific now that the surface book actually costs more than a MBP, marking apple as the brand of poorfags. Who would have known.
>>51283616
dude, give up. u mad. "straight from the factory" with all that wear and tear and dirt and dust. I'm actually surprised you cleaned the cheeto dust off desu.
OP HERE.
this was an experiment to prove that I could get 50+ replies by stating nothing more than "Apple".
Thank you my lab rats.
>>51283627
Given that nobody actually buys the Surfacebook, the meme still applies. Having a more expensive product rotting in shelves doesn't increase the value of the brand.
>>51283650
well that was pretty obv considering 95% of /g/ is too poor to even afford an apple product.
>>51283627
It's only because they inflated the prices. Only poorfags use Microkek products. Even The newest Macbook Air outperforms the Surface Book.
>>51283650
Great thread, OP.
>>51283662
>value of the brand
No one is talking about the value of a brand, idiot.
>>51283688
Ok. Great post.
>this thread desu
>>51283650
OP here again, I forgot to mention I cannot stop choking on cocks and I have a dragon dildo in my ass right this second.
Also, ignore all others claiming to be me.
>>51283532
Macbooks lol never
>>51282721
I guess that would be something a business analyst would use. But in that case they use more flowcharts than anything. And a serious business annalist would not use a mac. Macs do not have the custom software business use. Hell they don't even have Innovator for Business Analysts or any serious implementation for BPMN (business process model and notation)
>>51283722
apple is replacing screens that have this issue though
also, Apple
>>51283708
I mean, I see why you might think this, but I'm typing on a optioned out MBP right now, and I still don't prefer it to a machine with a better GPU, more RAM, more ports, etc.
It might surprise you that not all those who are opposed to Apple computers are just "too poor" to afford them. Plenty of people have plenty of reasons for choosing one product over another. What you're doing is making the false assumption that everyone chooses products for the same reason that you do.
>>51283800
Interesting color reproduction going on there.
>>51283699
>value of a brand
But that's exactly what being poorfag is about, you can't afford a desirable brand and bitch about it.
Surfacebook is obviously not desirable (even the most optimistic sale estimates are at 100k units) so nobody wants to buy it, because it's shit. It's not related to the price.
>>51283800
Good job hiding your dildos, anon.
I guess marketing freelance "artists" and pie charts advocates is what sells nowadays. This goes for both for apple and Microsoft. Now is all about pretending to do something important rather than actual functionality and getting more for your money.
>>51283817
>Interesting color reproduction going on there.
Yeah - my colorimeter is at home. Gonna bring it into work and sort that out :^)
>>51283822
I can see you don't know what you're talking about. Oh well. Anyway, I'm the guy who just posted talking about how I'm on a >$2500 MBP and I still would rather have a SurfaceBook. Am I a poorfag? Granted, I don't have too many super nice things, but at 27 with a 6 figure gross income, I'd say I'm not doing too bad. I could go out and buy a brand new MBP right now with just the cash in my checking account. But why bother?
What is your rhetoric now, anon? What other ad hom could you fling at me that illustrates why I don't want to use apple products? I'm clearly not "poor", so what other reasoning could there be for me to not want to use an Apple computer? I'm eagerly awaiting your response.
>>51283888
What monitor is that, anyway?
>>51283911
Dell U2713H
Anyone playing Fallout 4 on their new Apple?
>>51280437
But that's a Surface Pro.
>>51283926
I can't decide if I want to spring for that or wait for the Acer G-Sync 1440p one. I trust Dell a lot more with monitors than I do Acer.
>>51283998
i have the u2711 at home and the u2713 here at work
both pretty great, but i dont game much
>>51283911
>I'm on a >$2500 MBP and I still would rather have a SurfaceBook.
So get it you really think it's superior? Oh wait.
As for the rest, you clearly misunderstood the complete point, which was never related to "if you don't want Apple, you are poor" and even less to you and your bank account. Although uhh ... well done, you're not doing too bad indeed.
>>51284044
>which was never related to "if you don't want Apple, you are poor"
That has always been that basis of any "apple shilling" on /g/, fake or not. At always comes down to the concept of being a "poorfag". Which is why the fox and the grapes is such a powerful analogy for team "non-apple users are poor". It paints the picture that anyone who complains about apple or refuses to use them is actually just too poor to afford apple products, and therefore exhibits a sense of malice towards said products.
Either way, I don't give a shit what people use, honestly. I don't like apple or their products for my own personal reasons, but I don't project those feelings onto others just because they differ from me. People subscribe to a false-dichotomy "team mentality" far too often.
