Fuck you Apple you money hungry fucking pieces of shit I hope you all rot in hell

[alex]

This is seriously ridiculous, how can a company try and charge you for a fucking software update............. -_______-

I plug my ipod into my comp and it's telling me I have to pay 10 dollars to update my software.

Now what really is pissing me off is that I can't make this message go away from appearing each time I plug my ipod in unless I buy there fucking update.

FUCK YOU APPLE YOU FUCKING FAGGOTS!!!!!!!

Ohhh and for you apple fanboy morons saying osx/apple products > pc products

I'm not bitching about the 10 dollars I'm bitching about the fact that they try and charge you for an update. If it was 1 dollar i still wouldn't update.

god damn, that shit's bangin,

mine's a
q6600
9600gt
4 gb corsair 6400 @ 5-5-5-18
and a 20 inch viewsonic.

however, mac pros use XEON processors and FBDIMM ECC ram (yeah, that's right, the only difference between the xserve and mac pro is the case)

now lets compare specs:

q6600:

Core Kentsfield
Multi-Core Quad-Core
Name Core 2 Quad Q6600
Operating Frequency 2.4GHz
FSB 1066MHz
L1 Cache 128KB+128KB
L2 Cache 2 x 4MB
Manufacturing Tech 65 nm


mac pro 2.8 processor (single processor 4 core)

Core Harpertown
Multi-Core Quad-Core
Name Xeon E5440
Operating Frequency 2.83GHz
FSB 1333MHz
L2 Cache 12MB
Manufacturing Tech 45 nm

now let's up it a little...

the 3.2 (which you can get 2 of in your mac pro)

Core Harpertown
Multi-Core Quad-Core
Name Xeon X5482
Operating Frequency 3.2GHz
FSB 1600MHz
L2 Cache 12MB
Manufacturing Tech 45 nm

talk shit about mac mini, macbook, MBP, imac, iphone, ipod... but you don't have room to talk shit about mac pro's

doesn't mean macs are great computers, but hardware wise they're so much more powerful than your machine. i'll be back in a few min to do an actual BIY comparison.

ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED DUDE!!!!!!

I EVEN SAID I CAN AFFORD IT ITS NOT THE FACT WHETHER I CAN AFFORD IT OR NOT YOU RETARDED FUCKING MONKEY ITS THE FACT OF THE MATTER THAT A COMPANY IS TRYING TO CHARGE ME FOR AN UPDATE TO MY HARDWARE THAT SHOULD BE FREE YOU FUCKING IMBECILE.

Also I would never buy an apple product, only reason I have it is because my creative broke after 2 yrs of constant dropping and using it and it got replaced with this piece of shit which I fucking hate.

[TheMayhem]

just throwin this out here, i did 3 different "paths"

the first which is straight from apple, the 2nd which is just the tower without any upgrades (other than processor) and aftermarket for any upgrades and then the third which is strictly aftermarket (using an apple logic board and some other apple parts)


Apple:

13,499

# Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
# 32GB (8x4GB)
# None
# 320GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s
# None
# None
# None
# ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB
# One 16x SuperDrive
# None
# None
# Apple Mighty Mouse
# Apple Keyboard + User's Guide

aftermarket:

7,160


# Two 3.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
# 32GB (8x4GB)
# None
# 320GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s
# None
# None
# None
# ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256MB
# One 16x SuperDrive
# None
# None
# Apple Mighty Mouse
# Apple Keyboard + User's Guide


newegg:
$6264

processor = 2700
ram = 2040
video card = 140
dvd drive = 24
hard drive 200$
keyboard = 50$(apple)
mouse = 50$(apple)
osx 10.5.4 = 130$(apple)
motherboard = 500$(apple)
power supply = 250$(apple)


i know i left a few parts out on the newegg one but i couldn't find what i was missing as of right this second.

haha what an idiot you would never buy an apple product, but you bought it because your creative broke? do you not realize there are other mp3 players out there ?

oh and by the way its not apple's fault that they had to charge for the update:

"“It’s an accounting requirement that if you upgrade a device that’s not on a subscription, you have to charge,” Needham and Company financial analyst Charles Wolf said."

your pathetic..read before you open you mouth to make vacuous comments.
