Apple Pisses Me Off

[Cale_Hagan]

i thought they had model numbers under or on the battery?

hahaha, blaze, you soo funny!

How hard is it to make Model numbers for your computers??

This guy wants RAM and he just tells me the year he got it and that it's white.

It's like going to a car repair shop and saying: "Can you fix my car"?

"What kind of car is it?" asks the mechanic

"I got it in 2009. It's a white uni-body. It's a V6, does that help? Oh, it has airbags....."

2009 White Unibody = PC3-10500, 2x4gb maximum.

I have the same laptop! And it does have a model number.. it's really small, and written on the bottom near the rear edge. Probably an A1342 if it's the same as mine.

Also, Apple pisses me off for different reasons.

For example, my Mac mini. Intel C2D, 1.83ghz w/512mb ram, and a 5400rpm 80gb hdd.

I got it in a trade for a midrange PC to someone who bought the mac, then regretted it.

I have since upgraded it to a T7400 cpu, 2gb ram, and a 320gb 7200rpm hdd.

As far as software goes, I'm stuck at OSX 10.6.7.. and cannot update any further unless I buy the new OS version. As a result, my Google Chrome wont update any further either. As a result, youtube no longer works, since I cant update Flash because it's integrated into Chrome.

So let me get this straight Apple.. the only way to get support for my Apple product is to bootcamp it and install Windows...?

Or Linux....


Still, not supporting a couple-year-old os?

Wife is a strict non-linux user.. and since the mini is our media center pc, she gets final say.

It's all good.. i put firefox on, and we are back in business.

Serious question, are you high?

MacBook pro eats nothing but **** haha anything which doesn't have a freaking apple on it beats the MacBook Pro. My POS laptop is far better for me than even the most specked out special Steve Jobs $14 Edn MacBook.

Purely cost steam

i started out as a PC user trust me i know what im saying.... u will never buy a PC as high quality as a mac... CNC unibody? find me a windows laptop with CNC unibody... backlit keyboard.... superHD and multi touch? go on try..
u ever closed the lid on a mbp? its like closing the door on a jaguar compared to a honda civic....

(the only laptop i can see that can compete is the asus UX31) so far

I will admit that this macbook of mine definitely feels like a much more solid (not heavy, just well made) piece of gear than any laptop I've ever owned or put my hands on, except for the really $$$$$ Dell Precision M4600's and 6600's, but they weighed a ton, and cost looooads.

[Luke122]

In response to both Lithium and Stonerboy (who accuses Lithium of being high, haha), the Macbook Pro is nice, but too many limitations for me.

Yes, it's well made, powerful, sexy, thin, light, high res. It's unfortunately very expensive, not very "tinker" friendly (ie upgrades? replacement parts?), and still (in my opinion) limited by the OS. Yes, you can put linux or windows on it, but that sort of defeats the purpose doesnt it?
