    ediscommon reacted to Video Beagle in 10 Ways Mac OS is just BETTER   
    One thing, related to this....
    People LOVE Macs.
    (likewise, some people LOVE linux)
    No one LOVES windows.....people USE windows....they may also "HATE" Macs....but they still don't LOVE Windows.
     
    I've always found that interesting.

    ediscommon got a reaction from r2724r16 in LTT open views on Apple are not helpful to us   
    Let gets start with windows/linux/macOS and android/windows/ios statistics: google them. 

    You read it all? Good.

    Now, do you want a full market Android? Do you want a full market Windows? I feel we are digressing.. 

    Joke on meta, channel super fun, or whatever, but you guys are taking too far the anti apple sentiment. 

    Windows phone are dead, diss on apple and you are left with.. and you try to please anti-apple 'sheeps'?

    Look at the damn statistics.

    ediscommon got a reaction from Speed Weed in Response to today's (Nov 30) Tech Quicky video: Why are Apple Products so Expensive?   
    And here i was, me, thinking, making my second post in this forum, asking for LTT to slow down or stop talking about apple (because, look at comment sections across social).

    Valid points and i think (living in the other side of the atlantic so i don't know) that are a lot of things apple could change in terms of pricing politics, but that can be said also about the rest of tech companies. 

    But this part is plain wrong "goods or services are readily obtainable in a similar transaction by like consumers".

    Story time.

    Young me loves PCs, young me goes Athlon Xp 3200. Loves is first build. Loves XP. Young me not young anymore. The ready and avaible is a messy place. Because of the GIGANTIC DIFRENCES in offers from CPU vendors like intel or amd, GPU, Cases, RAM, etc etc, all stores have major percentage on their built rigs. And this is where the problem lies and many people seem to not think about.

    You go to a Apple store and you have that, period. People often tend to criticize apple about RAM or Storage pricing models, but that's where they also earn their bucks. Besides that, nothing much changes. 

    So you want a PC but you don't know what is capable or what not; AND i'm not talking about ilterates, i'm talking about common folks that likes tech but don't want to spend weeks searching every store, every build they have, every comparison and every benchmark there is on internet and just want a pc that works, good, and has a terminal. Where do you go? Like the video said, R&D and store locations take a lot of money, 

    side And LTT didn't even talk about custom hardware, something Microsoft avoids touching afraid of losing PC market (to linux?).

    We could go on forever, but i guess, as a tech enthusiast, just leave apple alone so we can maybe avoid all the hate for hate stuff? I mean, i'm writing this in a iMac pro from 2015 and been searching for parts for my first waterbuild ever, but everytime LTT does stuff like this, i just bookmark all tabs and come back later (because i really like LTT!!!!!)

    PS: You don't know what DDR4 they use, and MAC ram availability is not that sure in canada i believe (besides craiglist?)

    Edit: I'm guessing i won't receive many replies since the logic of this post is straight human and based on social experience. Going off. To a third post!
