MacBooks actually explode if a male tries to use them. Said male is then left to pick big chunks of plastic and 'glossy' screen out of their face for the next 17 weeks.

 

Didnt you *read* the small print on apple.com?

 

 

 

 

Actually, MBs are great. I had one, I dont mind admitting. The fact I now have a MBP is to do with the screen resolution and gfx power, not because of the aluminium case vs my old macbook's white.

You know that gyroscope inside the MacBooks that detect if it falls, and then stops the hard drive from spinning to protect data from damage?

 

That's not really what it's for. That's just what they tell the men. Munky has seen the dark side.

 

*Actually, MBs are awesome machines. I much prefer the 13.3 size to the MBPs, and are ideal for portability. They are more powerful than the 12" Powerbooks as well, which was the ultimate-favorite laptop of many Mac owners.

Real men dont wear shirts with pockets, and stay home on friday nights. They go out and get laid.

I don't care what people think about if the Macbook is for Girls, AS long i have a computer, Im ok and i don't care what kind it is

 

No, I don't wear pocketed shirts with pocket protecters and suspenders, I DO have a life, i keep things in balance, 50% Life, 50% Computer Freak, I don't think anybody at my school has even heard of the word 'nerd'

 

BTW, Nerds watch Revenge of the Nerds movies :)

Slightly OT, but I don't care if they are for men, women or {censored} people.

What annoys me is that a 17" Macbook Pro costs in Italy Eur 2,799.00

A HP with very similar specs (except that the CPU is a Turion) costs Eur 1,300 and I have seen it for Eur 1,080.

That is almost 3 times the price and there is no chance in hell that I am going to be ripped off like that just to run OS X, no matter how much I like it.

This is a pretty comical thread lol. Personally I've seen guys use Macbooks, but they're just a tad to femalish for my taste. Im on the Macbook Pro bandwagon. Slick, Aluminum, and think is in. :)

I agree mate. I feel bad that the EU customers are being rippped of this badly. You guys (and girls) pay 1/3 more the price than we do. Sometimes that could go up to 2/3. I really wish Apple would stop this nonsense and give equal pricing options for you guys there. Dang that means some people in parts of EU wont even be able to afford an Apple Laptop ever. (Romania, Bulgaria etc, etc). :)

Very true. Even if they have joined the EU they are still very poor in comparison with the original member states.
