I just got this retina macbook pro...

[BlvdBrawler]

Everything




You nikkas aren't seriously that hung up on price to pay a couple hundred dollars more just to buy higher quality



Like I said, Macs are like the Audi's of laptops... A suped up one is like a Ferrari. Just because you put rims on a honda, doesn't change the fact that it's a honda.




Reminds me also of the Pas4 nikkas in the Arcadium that are like "What... I got to pay a hundred dollars more for a machine that does a lot more shyt"

That's the thing tho, breh. Once Apple started putting Intel chips in Macs, the "higher quality" argument killed itself because the hardware is IDENTICAL.

B..b..b.....but build quality! Da fucc does that mean? Are keys popping off my laptop? Does it not open or close when I want it to? Do I have a shyt-ton of dead pixels? Noooooo. lol.

You're not paying for higher quality, you're paying for the illusion of higher quality (and of course, the Retina display which admittedly is dope).

B..b..b..but they're made of metal. Yea, there's PC's made of metal that cost less than a Mac. If I was that pressed, I'd just buy an Envy and put OSX on it and save myself $800. Yes, yes you can.

Just say that you like having a Mac cause of the snob appeal. I drive a BMW, I'll understand. But this whole "better quality" "better product" nonsense is nonsense.

Why do ya'll like to pretend like OS X and Windows aren't on different levels of ease and user interface?

OSx restricts the user....you can do more + better value for $$$$

Chipset identical... Hardware identical

There is no fukking "illusion of quality" it is quality. That's literally saying that there's an illusion of quality between a honda and a Lexus. They both get you to point A and B, but which would you rather ride in if you could?


I was drunk carrying my Mac one day and it slipped out of my hand (basically tossed it) and landed on the concrete in my driveway. I thought it was done... But all it had was a dent in the side. If that was ANY other PC it would've been in pieces

Design, build, and quality is NOT the same... You would know that if you owned one

I like having a Mac because I like having a fukking Mac. I've had PC's, Vaio's, Dells, HP's... And I'll never do that shyt again unless I have too. And even then, I'll probably only get a Toshiba, Viao, or Samsung if I MUST.


And if you can't spend an extra $200 for a better computer then that's you breh. Enjoy not being able to download certain things in fear of your system being hijacked and always having to configure random bullshyt on your PC.

What the fukk else would you need to do???


Y'all nikkas keep saying this shyt. Yea, you could do more of what? Why not use the OS that you don't NEED to fukk with...


Again, I'll use car references. I was originally supposed to go to trade school for cars, but they shut the program down so I chose computers. Basically similar concepts


nikkas is saying "There's no difference in quality, you can do more, etc"... But would you buy a $60,000 car just to put rims and a body kit on it?

Pushups might be hard for you. Doesn't mean they're hard for me.

Also, glad you're back.

Now you can tell me why I'm mad that this...

Costs way more than this...

Lexus has better luxury than Honda.

Yes, there is "something" there when you buy a Lexus. Again, I drive a BMW so I get the snob appeal. I get the intangible feel of something. It's just not there for me in a computing experience.

lol @ "I can throw it on concrete and it still works". Breh, if I threw mine on concrete, and even if it DIDN'T work, I could buy a brand new one of the brand new model year and still spend less than you. That's the point I'm making. I'm not saying there's not a difference, I'm saying the difference isn't worth it.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

What is "Way more" btw???


And it costs more because it should... Let me guess, you drive a Kia. Nice car for the price too

Oh what's that? You drive a BMW??? But a Kia is just as good though. It has an engine too, just like the BMW... It also has doors, a steering wheel, even a radio with a USB port

Kia Optima is a good ass car.

It has a lot of shyt that my BMW doesn't have. (a/c seats )

If I were looking for something out of a car other than performance, I'd probably go with a Kia.

Just like if I were looking for something out of my computer other than performance, I'd probably go with a Mac.

Like I've said before, I've bought multiple PC's within a couple of years. In fact, if my Mac had broke, I would've been excited because all that meant is that I would be able to upgrade


Who gives a fukk about the cost if it's what you want. And again, you're acting like nikkas is paying THOUSANDS more for a Mac

And again, there is no snob appeal for me. I got a Mac because I got tired of being a cheapskate, anti-douche and was also tired of wasting my time and money on PC's

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Kia Optima is a good ass car.

I agree, it is...

But yet, you don't have one
