Does apple suck?

Just a spinoff from the ipod thread...I felt like posting a poll about it. Vote "yes" if you think apple and all its products sucks *****, vote "no" if you love your mac.

Ehh... My friend bought a macbook and another bought a macbook pro for college. They're pretty good in terms of what i can see. It really depends on what you want to do. They're both goin into video editing so the mac's are superior at that so yea. I guess I wouldn't mind having one. But I would rather buy a XPS myself.

ohayou has a good point. For video editing or hardcore graphics work Macs are hard to beat. For the everyday user, a PC is probably a better fit though.

Mac or PC. Its like you're better-half or wife.

Better-half = you are entitled to 50% of your check.

Wife = you get an allowance so in summary, you get nothing.

Don't you think the poll is a little biased?

I'm actually a sysadmin that takes care of a lot of different servers, Windows included. Previously I built all my computers and ran various operating systems on them. I switched to OS X and I don't see any reason to go back.

Apple is also necessary for creating music....Ableton LIVE is basically industry standard for electronic music.

Wheelin' 23rd, we saw nothin' but thugs

Cause the rockman got 'em and their butts just dropped
The freaks look depressed because our Benz won't stop
At 23rd and Union, the driver broke left...
