We're just saying that we understand why Apple doesn't cut prices on their machines. Apple offers plenty of low-cost solutions for those that cannot afford a G5 tower machine.

Plus, Apple is not saying (nor are we saying) that purchasing an Apple machine for $XXXX.XX will get you hosepower on par with a PC that costs the same amount. There's a lot more built into Apple's pricing than raw horsepower -- just because it costs more doesn't mean it'll crunch a floating point operation quicker. If you think that's just crap coming from an Apple apologist, it's not... take a look at how comfortable we Mac users are with our computing experience (from the price to the OS to the computer) vs. how frustrated and/or unaccepting you seem to be with yours.


I'll come out and say it-those problems I never had with windows-well, yesterday, she floated down the river and sank, to put my curse words midly hehehe.


I love the whole hardware upgradeabily aspect of it all though. I hope apple is at least wise enough to make a good solid x86 machine that is upgradeable after a wee bit.



I honestly love the iMac, it would be the perfect solution to getting rid of clutter around me. then maybe I could get a surround system going in here.

Huh? Are you sure it's not a "glitch" that's specific to your machine?

Also, when you open what? Can you elaborate?

Hm. This thread moves closer and closer to its end. At the very beginning, I thought that the day would come when its title would become the subject, although at the beginning, it wasn't.

So let's just say: Two more trolling comments in this thread and we get rid of it. (So _one_ can still walk away freely, fryke? Are you sure?!) - No, I'm not.
