pros/cons/in between for using a mac at college

<p>I have some beef with Apple because of…</p>

<p>*Well, I dont like proprietary hardware, I like options.</p>

<p>*A lot of Mac users look at PC users like they are less than human…which is why PC users pick on them.</p>

<p>*Steve Jobs puts toooo much culture into their products. An entire year before Apple discussed its partnership with Starbucks, I predicted that they would have something going. Now all that has to happen is Gap jumps on the bandwagon.</p>

<p>*You are pretty much obligated to get Apple Care because Apple uses proprietary hardware. If Ram goes in your iMac, you don’t have a computer for a long time.</p>

<p>*Apple has the same monopoly on hard disk music players as Microsoft has on operating systems, and no one says a damn thing about it.</p>

<p>I don’t hate Apple, but I just hate people who defend them tooth and nail when they are A) Not tech people. One girl told me OSX was better because she liked the shortcuts more…yea. B) They live in that “Apple Culture”. The people who drink Starbucks and wear Gap clothes with thick glasses. Typical hipsters.</p>
