Whoever said the following :
"That is, in fact, all the Apple really has, culture. That's why Macs sell. Not because of a rational comparison of features and price, but because a slick advertising campaign tells them that if they buy this particular mass produced commodity, they will be more unique and original and amazing than the people who buy the other kind of mass produced commodity. Don't take my word for it. Browse the intertron. I promise, 95% of what Mac people say is all cultural critique. It's all just marketing. That's it."
has OBVIOUSLY never used a Mac. I had a PC my whole life, and when mine died, I decided to go to Mac. I will never, EVER own a PC again. I've tried to use vista, it's AWFUL! A Mac has so much more than just culture. They never crash, you don't get viruses, they're less maintenance, they just work. Lets face it, Apple just produces a better product. Plain and simple.
