Nearly every geek I know has a MBP, and every startup I've worked at uses the same.

Nearly every geek I know has a MBP, and every startup I've worked at uses the same.
- Synaesthesia 16y agoSure, I think I over-generalized a bit - I mean the kind of comments you see from Android boosters and people who are just bewildered by Apple's success.
- usaar333 16y agoHis statement definitely feels true the other way though; the most ani-Apple people are geeks.
- Kylekramer 16y agoWell, of course. That is how fandom works. I don't particularly care if Bella gets with Jacob or Edwards, but I don't like the Twilight books. In order to dislike a particular team/company/entity, you probably have to passionate about the field in general.
- pnathan 16y agoI can't stand the walled garden approach Apple takes. I think the OSX/Mac overall experience is the best out there, beating Ubuntu 10.10 and W7. (Reliability, programmer-friendliness, 'normal' programs).
- dagw 16y agoThe two aren't as mutually exclusive as one might think. I'm anti-Apple when it comes to their walled garden media strategy, their iOS App store approach and most things connected those. I am however very pro nice, solid, laptops with a unix based OS that just works out of the box, and that basically means buying Apple.
