If Microsoft had done this, retards in turtle necks everywhere would be crying about it. Not to mention the EU.

so in this scenario, what color turtle neck are you wearing?

I think I'd be with the EU on this one. The turtleneckers' motivation would be completely different. I'm actually for consumer's rights.

I'm sorry, but if I buy something, no way in hell I want other people to still control it. The library of congress agrees, which is why it made cell phone jail breaking legal.

It must really suck to care about stuff like this.

yeah. i can't even imagine. just think about the people that care about whether some guys likes to make out with another guy though. there's probably some people that care about both. i mean, how much free time do you fuckers have?

[hemmy]

I am sure you make a decent starting salary in w/e dumb business field you guys majored in 33/daris. Don't hate on the computer elites making big bucks.

Never thought they were. They have a lot of work to do, but they're going the complete opposite direction that Apple is going when it comes to this. You're starting to argue like Beems, btw. You're better than this.

[BigCat]

Love the ways Apple haterz hate. Bunch of people who don't have the sand to admit they've foolishly been using a far inferior product just because they don't want to/can't pony up the extra dough to shop for quality products. Also denial is a really ugly thing.

If you're an elite computery person you probably don't apply, but for folks who just want crap that works without being required to be a computer technician, Apple rules the world. I get emails from 75 year old people that can't use a PC but can bang out emails on an iPad all day. What!? Yes, I want one too.

I don't hate anything. I just think it's hilarious how you would rather get raped over on price and consumer rights, just for a brand. I just hope that attitude stays with you and not the rest of the world. I like to use the things I buy the way I want to.

Weird how it's always the Apple haters starting the threads about how much they hate Apple and never the other way around.

PC people are like the high school wrestling team.  They are always calling out the basktball players (Apple people) and making fun of basketball because they are so insecure about their sport.  Meanwhile the basketball players don't even know the wrestlers names.

Mac has Boot Camp, because many users have the need to run a Windows OS.

Meanwhile, I don't know of anyone that would want to run Mac OS on PC hardware. What would be the point?

Great topic guys! 

I have very much interest in Apple and their fantastic line of products!

Apple has learned a lot from iPad. The new MacBook Air is proof. It’s designed around all-flash storage for better responsiveness and reliability. It features a trackpad with full Multi-Touch support. And though it’s incredibly thin and light, its large battery gives you portable power that lasts for hours.

So whether am I cruising Facebook in the secret coffee that only my friends and I know about, or downloading the newest obscure hit from iTunes, I know that the sleek elegant design of my MacBook Air will be there for me.

Was is also nice is knowing that  when it comes to being environmentally friendly, Apple approaches things differently — through their products. That’s why MacBook Air is energy efficient and free of many harmful toxins.

All of this, and more can be found in the next generation of MacBooks.

When I keep track of my favorite team the KSU WILDCATS, I always use my MACBOOK AIR and other great APPLE products!

Go TEAM KSU and WILDCATS! GO GO GO!

Hackintosh is a hobbyist/geek thing, like installing Linux on your toaster.  Boot Camp is out of necessity.

Question for turtleneck wearing complainer, ew2x4-

Between Microsoft and Apple, only one company has been sued by the Dept of Justice for violating anti-trust laws.  The company lost the lawsuit and was found guilty of violating the Sherman Antitrust act.

Only one of the two companies was also sued by the EU for violating anti-trust laws and again was found guilty of violating consumer rights.

Care to guess which of these two fine outstanding pro-consumer rights software companies it was?
