Apple doesn't have to beat them out to make oodles of money, though. They get 200 from Cingular per contract and iPhone purchase, plus about 150-200 in profit per phone. They'll do just fine if they continue with their niche market. Look at Helio for example. They'll never be king but they make money and do just fine.

As for Corp. adoption, you've got to start somewhere. Blackberry didn't emerge one day and automatically become hugely popular. It took some time to grow support.

Agreed on the Halo effect. Now that they have switched to Intel though, they have seen a huge increase in sales.

IMO, they need to focus on quality hardware and making money there as I don't see the other markets every becoming as big as their computer market. Maybe Cell Phones.

It's sad because there are very few things as enjoyable as some late night pizza, mountain dew and a lan party.

Sounds like you're into Sausage parties. I can't say I'm suprised.

I had a macbook for a while.

The screen was very good for a laptop screen. The keyboard felt great. I never had any problems. It was easy to use.

There are probably some great windows based laptops out there, but I can't make one complaint about my Mac. Mac users might be annoying, but the Mac is a good product.

Sony and Lenovo Thinkpads are good. Other than that I have seen very few high build quality products.

When I first got it, I was impressed with how well made everythign was. Just the little things.

Anyone who talks up a Mac isn't talkign it up like it's this new great thing that is completely different from a PC. They're talking it up because they deliver on all of the little things as well as having a very reliable opperating system. In the end, it's just a computer. It's not that big of deal, but if you want a quality one and you want peace of mind knowing buttons aren't going to break off or viruses aren't going to corrupt the piss out of it then a Mac is for you.

Those ads are dumb and the Mac user comes off as pompass. However, I think would could dispute the superiority of Leopard in features, ease of use, and the quality of free ware to that of Windows Vista. It's an infinitely better value.

What the hell did I say?

I think would could??!?

I think few would dispute***

Ok, so now you're the Mac guy with Tourrette's Syndrome .
