Question Apple Stuff

Just interested really, in spite of the fanboys, in just how many Apple products people really own. Certain posters on here would have you believe that every product launch, update, or software release has a profound effect on every SNet user Is it really that widespread?

I'm asking about current products i.e. iPod onwards, not those weird computers that you might have in the loft from the 80s

Multiple selections allowed in the poll...

Me - only an iPod Classic 160GB, I have a lot of music and for me this was one of the best in terms of storage etc.

Don't get me wrong, a lot of Apple stuff looks great, as a techy type I love technology but can never justify the prices of most Apple stuff (i.e. iPhone, iPad, etc.). I work predominately with PCs / M$ operating systems so tend to stick with that for my home computing needs, better the devil you know and all that....

All gameplay customers don't own their souls either

I only have an iPhone 4 since it was the best on the market when I got it. Unless I'm going to work in music production or professional graphics work I won't be getting a Mac.

iPod (1st Gen)
iPhone 3GS
iPad
iMac

Although I sold my iPhone after getting the iPad.

Fantastic company and it is refreshing not to have to wait for a PC to start up.

No flash on the iPad is a bit of a pain but understand the reasons why.

Im not a fanboy either

Bugger, I put

Desktop Computer
Laptop Computer
No Apple stuff

Not strictly true as I just remembered I do have an apple ipod shuffle but i didn't pay for it and it doesn't get used

I won't have an iphone because I like a proper keyboard hence my last 2 phones having qwerty keyboards and I either sit by the desktop PC or use that.

I have an old laptop that I use in the garage or take to jobs as I didn't get round to repairing my old 'good' one or I ocasionally use the mrs' work laptop

I don't want to spend the money on an apple desktop to be told what I can and can't do and pay for the privilidge

I just upgraded my pc to quad core 3.5 GHz, 4GB (no point on more for xp pro 32) 2 tb and a 27" monitor for £550ish

Nearly 70% of SNet users own one or more Apple products so far. Maybe they were right....

Tempted to get a LED cinema display to replace my monitor.

But its only 1440 lines; I'd rather have a 2560x1600 resolution display....with LED matrix backlight, however none exist...yet.

We had a cinema display where I used to work. They are stunning, and all you would need for photography / design

Why would they? If they can sell products that are technically inferior for twice as much as the competition, why change anything!

This little vid says it all for me!
