Now anyone that knows me, will know that I have a slight problem with apple.
I don’t buy into their hype.
And in fact I don’t buy into them ever — I’ve never owned an imac, or ipod, or ibook, or icrap or whatever.
Over priced.
Case in point, I was in an apple store in atlantic city in July, when I asked a worker if the iPhone was actually worth $600. He avidly told me that yes, and worth even more , and I questioned him if he didn’t think the price was going to drop in a few months (I did, he disagreed).
That’s what we like to call mac fanboys.
Here’s some good quotes from the article I did on the MacBook Air, the next most hyped failure Apple will release.
“I like Apple, but they’re too much fancy and not enough work stuff,” Labrecque said. “They come out with all looks and gimmicks first, and then they work backwards.”
“With Apple, everything is very expensive, and it’s good — but as a student, it’s not necessary,” Labrecque said.
(I must say, that what drove me to the final decision was writing for VentureBeat and the need to stay in contact and easy access to Google apps)
So after all this time and all this hating on Apple’s overpriced useless products, I finally got one.
iDavid own an iPhone.
