This is a year to be especially thankful. Steve Jobs is doing great — new products rumoured to be introducted first quarter of 2010. What better way than now…this week to best ensure Apple is the standout. Great quality, nice prices, and higher market share.

Even last week, Apple in Honolulu had no Magic Mouses (Mice?) in stock. Can you say Bait and Switch?

I have a Mac Pro Hackintosh and it is running just as stable as the one that you would Pay $2500 dollars from at Apple. The stable foundation or quote “Support” that you talk about was already there when they built OS X on the rock solid STABLE Open Source Unix Core. Yes they have worked out the bugs of OS X but if you can prove to me that there is something special about the PC motherboard and Intel Processors that Apple uses versus the ones that consumers can buy from newegg, then I think your argument is weak! Waiting your response?

ITs the whole package.
Testing , integrated and supported that make a Mac a Mac.

Build yourself a hackintosh http://lifehacker.com/5360150/install-snow-leopard-on-your-hackintosh-pc-no-hacking-required

For around 900 dollars you can have a Mac Pro. And for all those haters out there because it is “Quote” “Not Apple Hardware, take a flying leap.”

These machines are just as good! it is the Operating System that set Mac Apart not the hardware!

If it isn’t, don’t. I’ve never seen such pointless musing (at least not two empty introduction paragraphs) about a BMW, premium refrigerator, or quality ream of paper. For a second I thought the first half of this post was moonlighted from Rob Enderle.

Or get a code off an eBay dealer? I’ve picked up my MobileMe at Amazon for 30% off for two years now, and I just got an AppleCare from eBay for more than half off the original price! The eBay guy emailed me the code the next morning and within 5 minutes my girlfriends MacBook was protected till 2012!
