I just want to say well done.

You're the first person I've seen who seems to understand the concept of radio buttons vs Checkboxes.

I have a macbook pro, ok one of the older models, not really fond of it.

 

First thing I did with that was install bootcamp partition on it, I just dislike the way mac works as an OS rly :(

 

no offense to mac/apple, it just doesn't suit my taste.

 

and as for phone i prefer phones the size of dumbphones, like the old nokias, motorolas and ericson when it was still monochrome?

yea far more portable xD

I still keep a Nokia 3315 in my drawers as an emergency back up. had it for 11 years and still works great!

Edit: also, Snake2 is still a fun game!

I'll list my pros and cons for apple products:

PROS:

-battery life of the iphone 5 and the iPads

-iphone 5 is really thin and light (almost too light to feel like a decent product)

-design of the macbook pro and mac pro

 note: with its 650m i would've recommended a MBP, because it was actually really thin; but now with the razer blade and msi slim series that's not really an advantage anymore 

-cinema display that takes advantage of thunderbolt

 

CONS:

-software: ios and os x are just not suitable for my needs

-iphone form factor: too small and too long

-iphone screen resolution bugs me: people go all 'oh but its retina' but in reality, phones like the HTC One are WAY sharper

-connectors of the iphone and ipad (both the new one and the old one suck imo), just develop a micro USB 3 already, seriously

-pricing, of course

-hardware availability (like seriously if you want to buy an editing machine you should be able to put in the latest processors, ram and GFX, don't you think

 

 

The hipster imaginary doesn't bother me too much, because I don't really care too much about what people think of me as long as the respect me for the choices I make
