Change for the Red Dot
Considering the price of Apple gear, some people really need to consider why they are buying a laptop..
For Starbucks : Fine, buy the Macbook Air, it has the Logo so that part is taken care of.
For Professional Work : Just buy a Thinkpad, almost everything is replaceable by the user, the keyboards are great, the resolution is great ( depending on model obviously and the damned things just work.
I have never, ever seen the advantage of a Mac, it's certainly not for the software or the customer care.. ( Virus can be avoided on Windows, just think before you click).
In the last few years, Apple has lost any advantages that they ever had, and they were already minor... It's time to move on with the hardware wars, whtehr it be Laptops or Phones, Apple are no longer producing superior material. Now its just like buying an "object with a logo".
Biting the hand that feeds IT
