"Macs are overpriced!"
k
A Macbook is more than just the hardware. I bought a Macbook because I love the aesthetic design. The engineering effort that goes into an Apple product is amazing, and people ignore it because it uses consumer hardware you could find in other computers. It's insane and it's ignorant.
Using OSX is part of the complete package. A beautifully designed aluminum Macbook with an esquisite operating system, that's Unix-based (and I can develop HAPPILY on) and with a UI that was made with time and care. This wasn't a rushed product made by developers contributing to some FOSS project.
That's how I feel. Take it or leave it. As for price.... Apple has an entire team for just making it look pretty. There's a lot of money that comes from the extra effort they do in this part. If you can afford a Macbook, buy it. If not, then don't. But to judge others for spending a little more on a Macbook rather than a lot less on a plastic Thinkpad that they can put Windows or Linux on is not cool. If that's what you want, then you can have it. I like Thinkpads. But I sure as hell wouldn't judge someone for buying a Macbook.

Probably has a VST malfunction and inverter damage on the LCD.
Enjoy I guess. Not bad if you don't mind ddr2.

ThinkPad T-Anything Before Lenovo is maximum vapor. I personally owned an old iMac before I left for school, honestly wasn't bad at all. Only thing is I was constantly afraid of a disk or display death, opening those bitches is a PAIN
El Capitan will run on that if you upgrade the RAM but it would be miserable. And otherwise, there's a huge lack of app support for Snow Leopard even though it's a good old OS.

It's 8 years old, at that point you're lucky to get any money for it
Thank you rajeesh, 5 rupees have been deposited into your apple positivity account.

I don't know why people say Macs are overpriced when products that are similar cost almost the same.
Expensive? Sure. But just because apple doesn't sell low end devices doesn't mean they are overpriced.
>>55610480
POO

LOO
>>55610603
Apple (especially now) is guilty of a lot of fuckery, but the boohoo they price gouge shit is just envy

Name a single Fagintosh with a 512GB NVMe SSD for under $3000.
PROTIP: You can't. :^)

And OSX. You can put OSX on it too.
>iMac from 2008 on eBay which will go up another $300 probably by the time the auction ends

8 years old and it still goes for $145, still a rip off.
>>55610480
Too much for a computer of those specs.

They aren't that hard to open up, replaced the hard drive on one and it only took like 25 mins. You just need to have suction cups to get the glass off
>>55610650
Those specs won't mean much when it shits itself in 4 years
>>55611929
I did it once and was autistic about lent. Took my clothes off, grabbed the tool bag and suction cups.
Fiance and her mom got home from work early, come in the bedroom and see me.
She left. Needless to say I'm posting from a ThinkPad now
>>55610480
A 2008 Chinkpad is less expensive than this pile of shit.

>ThinPads before Lenovo
>vaporware
Fucking hell, just put an SSD in it, upgrade the RAM in case you bought the basic config and be happy till the end of your life. Hell, feel free to upgrade the screen, keyboard, trackpad, cooling mechanism and sometimes even CPU if you really want to.
Can you upgrade the durability on your Apple product? No? Can you upgrade the keyboard so it at least comes close to the thinkpad one? Never? Can you upgrade the device to a point where it is not shit? Not possible? Well then go fuck yourself and your shitty Apple product.
>>55610724
Is this bait? Are you countering bait with more bait?
What the fuck are you doing?
>HURR DURR MACS ARE NOT OVERPRICED
>shows stats of a mac being a lot worse than a competitor at the same price.
Fucking retard.
>>55612042
Your fiance left you over that?
Good riddance anon
