Just make a strawpoll asking people if they are a c**t, the data should be about the same...

Can I just say, that I feel honored that not only is my first comment, but also, my ONLY comment, by the one and only Jamerio?

I'm so proud.

one and lonely*

apple watch, along with other apple products, is mostly for retards. or people who got them for free.

specially apple watch, spending so much money on a piece of plastic crap toy that you could spend on a decent and REAL watch.

Macbook pro - easily the best laptop I've ever owned.

Is there any other laptop with equally awesome touchpad?

no

Thinkpad or nothing.

case in point

Definitely second this. I've got a mid 2014 MBP 13" and its easily the most well built machine I've ever owned. I had an IBM Thinkpad that was close and a couple Sun Microsystems machines.

OSX has its quirks but I like Xcode much better than VS for c++.

My mother did not grow up with technology, the mighty PC was her worst nightmare since she was completely clueless about what to do when there was the slightest error or irregularity. Naturally I was the one she called when there were updates, she had to istall something, etc, try to explain a 60+ year old how to fix some windows shit...
After 3 years of angry calls I decided to sell all the pc shit, I got her a mac, apple keyboard, apple mouse, bought a solid printer too. I have not had a single call ever since.

apple is overpriced blabla

she has a job and earns good money, it was the best purchase i ever made. the whole setup works without failing without asking you thrice if you really want install that shit without ANY shenanigans. And not just that, that shit is so intuitive she even learns how to do new stuff by herself! from this view point apple >9000, pc = piece of soviet russian engineering.

so basically apple is the perfect brand for the technologically challenged. Which is their main selling point anyway, software with so little options that its essentially retard-proof and hardware products that look "pretty". Explains their huge sales and marketshare.

You seem pretty angry with people who aren't good with computers.

butcher, open your mind. Why is this good for the 'technologically challenged'? perhaps because the software is well programmed and intuitive? lol. I cannot even comprehend your ignorance.

Sometimes computer literate experts with years of experience say 'fuck this bullshit' because they're bored to death of the fucking shit windows causes. You know what? I triple boot mac / windows / linux depending what software I need - yesterday windows decided to not boot... just randomly, a 4 year old installation - windows logo then black screen. That's fucking shit, and I know what I'm doing.
Yeah I fixed it, but it was a fucking waste of 3 hours.

Open your mind and be less ignorant.

The linux noob distros like mint or ubuntu are gonna be at that point in a few years as well, if they aren’t already. UI’s are not crazy intuitive, but the ease of something like system updates make these systems more noob-friendly than windows.

Ease of system updates?
noobs don't want updates.
It's all about good UI and this is something any Linux won't get in hundred years.

dunno I used Ubuntu several times and it's UI is really not bad.
Setting up a machine is still a bit of a hassle where you need to know what to do... But in general using it is about as simple as using windows/apple machines.

That said I haven't seen one in 3 years, but I guess they haven't gotten any worse since :D

if you are aunt Tillie who’s never used a computer before, and who wants to play solitaire, make some birthday party invitation cards a few times a year and maybe read email, mint/ubuntu (or any major desktop environment, really) will do anything you want.

I also bought my mother a mac, I've not had a single call ever since either .....or email, or anything!

you unplugged the phone line while you were at it?

I can get on board with media types or other professionals using them for photography, video editing etc as they do have their moments, even though I am sticking with PC.

I just hate (not really hate but you know) people like my neighbour, he's just dropped 2k on a fucking macbook because his 300 quid acer laptop which he uses to exclusively browse the web is slow and he's convinced its the laptop when in fact he just needed to clean some malware off it, install google chrome, adblock+ and not install retarded screen savers, games, and ilivid.exes from every pirate sports site he visits.

well since none of that shit can effect a mac.... then he's obviously made a good choice lol.

I seriously doubt the mac is immune to any of that, if you're writing software to exploit any demographic, you're obviously going to go after the one that has the biggest market share.

yeah but right now, it isn't an issue. that's all.

you like that google botnet for a browser?

What do you recommend as an alternative? I stopped using FF years ago because of how slow and bogged down it became, and now Chrome is acting the same.

just don't hit install whenever something prompts you ;)

I don't. I'm talking fresh install performance. Chrome today is not nearly as "zippy" as Chrome circa 2012.

I use FF myself...
But a lot of these browsers actually add on more and more crap regardless of the user.
They should just stick to parsing html.

Hm, I'll have to re-try it out I guess. The last time I downloaded it it took me all of 2 minutes to be disappointed by the responsiveness.

I tried connecting my waffle-watch with my ayyyy-phone but I got a sink error.

Another accessory for the hipsters. When vintage clothing and [unnecessary] eyeglasses don't scream douchebag loud enough, reach for an Apple Watch.

average apple consumer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVmmYMwFj1I

I do not actually think that, but the song is amazing

I got the 17k gold version obviously.

Obligatory Apple Gold link

(It's actually much better than actual gold, which they know because Hublot invented it.)

Pharell Williams and Tim Cook got one...

I would seriously doubt them having to buy it though... So I wouldn't know anyone.

How much does it costs?
Does the battery lasts for more than a day?

$349 minimum and no.

No? lol, maybe they should use these mechanic charging systems from early XXth century watches?

around 4 hours if "used at full potential"

And it needs 5 hours to get fully charged? ; )
What a piece of junk.

You have too be totaly whack to buy this shit. A watch that lasts for 4 hours? What's even worse is that people defend it, what does it do that my phone doesn't?

fit on your wrist?

I can ducttape my phone too my wrist and it will make me look less of a tool.

Also why are people saying that you can't go wrong with a mac and can't get any viruses? I work in tech support for an ISP, the amount of people calling in having trouble with their Ipads, macbooks etc are far more then windows users.

LOL. "Sorry bro i gotta go charge up my watch"

I bought one to empower myself with faggotry.

you suck-seed-ed or was it succeeded....

.

I love Apple Watch. it makes me realise how many nice things I can buy myself by not buying it.

maybe the fake ones arent that bad

Apples dont Time.

Except for Red armour.

I'll never buy one, because neither time nor technology is important to me.

i`ve just got around to buying a dual band wifi card for my pc from hong kong

<3

saved me a total of £3, but is chip has windows 7 drivers released last year so its good for a few more

Great news, keep it up

word, only families need 802.11ac for 1500mbs, into 20mbs bt open reach fibre

I wear my watches as an accessory to compliment my look with a touch of elegance. Apple watch looks like a cheap kids' toy watch. Unless they can come up with digital watches that look good, I ain't wearing that shit.

There were some good looking digital watches. LG?? I think
clack

I've read rumors that there may be partnerships in the future with major luxury designers - i.e. Marc Jacobs, Chanel, to collaborate on watch bands.

real digital watches will always have just a bare display ...
will never look as good as a structured mechanical one

Don't feel like I need a watch, but it seems useful for biometrics. It's definitely not worth the price right now though. I'm sure it will come down in time and uses will develop.

iPhone and iWatch are just fad shit for spoiled kids and hipsters.

MBP on the other hand is awesome.
