>no replaceable battery
>can't even open the damn thing on your own
>awful keyboard
>comes with a bunch of saccharine proprietary shit drizzled over a proper OS

fix that and then call me

No ports? Can't open on your own?

Sorry that you think 6 = 0, and that you can't spend four dollars for a pentalobe.
>>
>>54176229
That's the classic Macbook Pro in the OP, though. That has lots of ports, an easily replaceable battery, can be easily opened up, and isn't that thin.

The keyboard is up for debate (I personally don't mind it, though yes, it's no Thinkpad), and yes, I agree it's overpriced if bought new. I got mine heavily discounted, though.
>>
>>54176046
kill yourself desu
>>
>>54176280
"Easily replaceable" not really. It's glued down and you have to use heat to remove it. You're bound to bend it and ruin the battery while removing it.
>>
>>54176371
Again, you're thinking of the Retina Macbook Pro. The classic MBP just has the battery held down by screws.
>>
>>54176420
>screws
proper laptops have it secured by a little latch on the bottom of the machine. You flip the laptop over and push on it and the battery pops out.
>>
>>54176440
I know. I have more laptops than you can imagine. I even have a few older iBooks and Macbooks that had swappable batteries. It's still easy to do regardless.

What's with the meme that you're automatically poor if you don't need or want a $1000 facebook machine? I'd love to see some of /g/'s credit scores, since most macfags argue like retarded college kids who blow their student loans on pricey depreciating electronics.

Retards who don't think in terms of reality, but in terms of vague stereotypes fed to them by the mass media

Welfare kids use $300 macbooks that are over 5 years old and used iphone 3Gs all the time. Apple designs barely change, so nobody notices except upon closer inspection, prompting the li(n)e "WELL I BOUGHT IT WHEN IT WAS NEW :^)"

Yeah, apple is for rich people. Just look at all the rich fictional TV characters using macs, and the politicians and engineers who got them as free perks using them to check their email.

There is nothing wrong with not wanting/needing one, pretending that they are expensive is what really shows that you're a poorfag.

Your entire post reeks of sour grapes, mate.
>>
>>54176491
When I started at University back in the days, I was arguing with a guy about how shitty mac books are. At the end he accused me of being jealous because I wouldn't be able to afford one. Then I asked him what kind of car he drives.. he didn't even have a driving license and I pulled out the keys of my 2009 manufactured A5. You should have seen his face.

Just where do you live? Most people don't care enough about computers nor did I ever, literally EVER meet anybody who gives any fucks whether somebody's hardware was expensive.

The only people who mention price are poorfags and macfags who bait the poorfags on the Interwebz.
>>
>>54176847
Hah, did the same. But with a civic I bought brand new in 2010 for almost $25,000.

Sure I use a $700 laptops, but I have a car. If you don't, and wanna call me poor, kill yourself. I love it when macfags try to come after me with the poor shit.

I buy shit that works and lasts a long time. I don't buy something because it's shiny (though my laptop is kind of shiny, it's a Dell XPS 13 after all)

Which is something you do as ... a twelve year old.

Besides, going by the information given in your point, you argue with people about their laptops IRL. Even if he started it, that's pretty damn infantile.

That's as bad as being a poorfag. What happened to buying the best, not being a fanboy of a company that doesn't give any fucks about you? Sure these days it's Apple but who knows, maybe Google will come up with something that competes or even Microshaft.

Mac tech here.
Open to answering questions.

Some points I will make clear.
-Still prefer Windows "gaymin" PC.
-Have a MBP 13" Retina, but barely use it.
-Not really a Mac fag or super fan despite using Macs more than most.
-Don't directly work for Apple themselves.

Exactly. I honestly dislike the current trend with most modern laptops. Non-replaceable batteries, SSDs, and soldered on RAM modules on the motherboards. I understand its to make the laptops thinner form factor wise but it really limits you on upgrades.

What I personally don't get it people being bothered about weight and their fucking "Ultrabooks".. Notebooks havent been heavy for years. Anything < 2kg is light as fuck and Ppl should stop being fucking pussies. Claiming that a 1,5kg notebook would be heavy is fucking retarded or suffers from muscular dystrophy
>>

>not directly employed by applel

>>54177281
Agreed. I'd rather have a slightly heavier Ultrabook/Notebook that has a removable battery, SSD, and RAM then being stuck with the configuration from the manufacturer just to receive a slightly slimmer form factor. Imo it doesn't make sense, I paid $1200 for my Thinkpad with the best i7 and bought my 1TB SSD and 8GB of additional RAM from newegg. At the end of the day it was still $700 cheaper then a 13inch Macbook pro maxed out straight from Apple.

>How do you mentally handle having to interact with homosexual customers all day for a living?
We don't always deal with customers and stick to diagnosing the given issue and any other faults we come across.

Not all Mac customer's are gay but I have seen a few gay ones with questionable desktop wallpaper of themselves and clearing a fault where the machine wakes from sleep and opens over 10 tabs of gay porn from their web browser...

>>54177219
Post your better "job" NEET faggot.

>>54177233
Not all faults are simple and Apple like to make their hardware proprietary all the time. Try buying a part that only Apple can provide access to.

Not impossible, but not likely worth the cost or effort.

>>54177258

I have a equivalent role to that but not under that title and I work for an approved service provider.

The Apple title is somewhat misleading which you would expect from designer faggots.

$1200 is not bad considering its a FullHD Ultrabook, 3.0ghz i7, 16gb of RAM, and 512gb SSD, and extended battery. I just hate the touchpad, the old style touchpad with the physical mouse buttons was much better.

To be honest, there is nothing wrong with mac except the price. Charging that much for age old technology should be a crime. But eh, they should sell it as long as stupid people can afford it.
