| 212692 | 2004-02-04 03:02:00 | This is a poll.. Question is: do Apple Computer make high-quality computers (and other electronics)..? Also: If they make good quality systems, why don't you use them? Comments about the company in general would be apprecieated. Forrest. |

| 212695 | 2004-02-04 03:37:00 | Um, I really don't see how you can ask this: >If they make good quality systems, why don't you use them? and then say this: >this is about _Apple_, NOT apple and wintel. since Apple's market share against Wintel is going to be fundamental to why many people don't use them regardless of how well built they are. You just can't discuss one without the other. At least not if you want honest opinions. |

| 212699 | 2004-02-04 04:13:00 | Well, iPods are especially cool. Too expensive for me though. | Biggles (121) | ||
| 212700 | 2004-02-04 04:31:00 | > Well, iPods are especially cool *Cough* Expensive-to-replace battery that stops working after 18 months *End-cough* Note: I accept no responsibility for the accuracy of the aforesaid statement I just made. It is from memory, something I heard somewhere out in the world. |

| 212701 | 2004-02-04 05:04:00 | Only things apple make that are any good are the OS(which is built on another os anyway) the cases and....thats about it. People rave about the OS,cant say i know anything about it but im prepared to believe them. Their high end cases are the best ive seen but their systems prices should reflect the cost of the components,Thier 6 grand machine would be worth buying at 3 grand. |
