Seriously jack I really do believe you don't live on the same plane of existence as the rest of us. The Google/Android machine will gobble up Apple in a few years. People have already started to see through Apples marketing ploys (feeding them bits of technology, keeping inflated prices on 4 year old technology). Unless they come up with a game changer and not some compromised piece of hardware, they are going to loose the big customer base they have as people will only pay for equipment that actually works.

Macs don't age like PCs. So we don't need to replace them all the time.
I'm typing this on a first generation Macbook which is 6 years old and its still a million times better than any brand new Windows based laptop.
Oh yeah and I won't mention the viruses
Don't hate the players, hate the game

Good job its a quarter of the price as you will need a new one every couple of years when they are knackered.

Spec has got nothing to do with it. I don't even know the spec and I don't need to know. It simply works as it should and is lightening fast, instant even.
If I ever feel the need to constantly battle against viruses i'll get myself a PC but at the minute I just can't be arsed

PC using Geeks... Nice...
im just fed up with ppl bashing either platform, each has its advantages and disadvantages..
i dislike Apple as a company but thats my personal opinion and i dont go around having a complex about it.
for the record my PC's have been perfectly fine and not had issues, but when you have such a variety of hardware and an open platform you are bound to get the odd issue and reliablity issues, its all about what you want.
Apple decided to close it all up and only allow things they have complete control over to help keep them reliable etc, where as id rather have full control so i got a PC..

Mac OSX installed on mine Hackintosh,but buying Macbook or something from Apple in meantime NO WAY,until Apple will support more profi Graphic software and just for one SW(Logic Pro for me) is just little bit OTT.
Jack your fanaticism(fanboyism) is OTT too,enjoy other platform and don't be just on one platform which is too restricted and in one and more is dangerous(monopoly as only one maker of Mac and you are person,you are cannot build own Mac OSX based PC etc.,due updates)

You Apple boys are so funny Is there no daft claim you won't make?You really think that a medium to complex task will be accomplished faster on your aging Mac than on a current Windows laptop?

Yep 3 or 4 times in 12 years ... I must be careful, it could become 5 times a decade if I keep going!
