The 17" MacBook Pro against consumer Windows laptops (verdict: great, but $1K more)
- Zev 18y agoFirst page: Are you going to tell us anything about the machines? Nope, I'm trying to be objective. Does the OS affect anything? Nope, but I'm a realist, so yup. Second page: These machines are basically the same hardware-wise, but lets say their names a few times. Since they're the same hardware-wise, lets discuss things that don't affect the computer, hardware or software wise! Also, be sure to bold their names no more then 3/4 the time though! Third page: Lets reprint the same information from the previous page, again! This time, using ugly colors that don't go well together. Then we discuss what most consumers care about; the price. And recommend other notebooks that we didn't even discuss!
- trezor 18y agoI'm not going to accuse this piece of consisting entirely of rabid Mac fanboyism, as he clearly has the ability to recognize that other laptop manufacturers are able to provide much of the same and in quite a few cases, even better. Doesn't really help though. It still comes off as "I'm going to use 3 pages to justify why I just spent $1000 on branding and I'm OK with that" and not much more. So apart from (once again) confirming that Apple sells equal hardware at a higher price, this wasn't really all that interesting.
