A writer at PC Pitstop has some harsh things to say. Seems to have some valid points. What do you reckon ??

I completely agree with the writer, some people tend to show off there Mac products because it looks cool and it's a Mac. The writer also mentioned that there battery is non-removable which is crap and your basically throwing something away that is expensive. It's pretty annoying when they use there own connections which means you would have to buy adapters and GO PC :thumbsup:

Yes but I like up to date software as well as hardware. Having an older os on a computer that can run the newest, annoys me severely. But I still like my apple equipment.

(written on my iPad) lol.

Edit grammar.
