It's more expensive than the Focus, dispite on the surface being more or less the same thing, yet it's capable of things the Focus isn't, at least without tinkering around with the engine and so on, which is what Windows is, a platform that needs tinkering and tuning by the user to get the most out of it because it's at a generic performance level. In the end you get more from the BMW for your money and it'll last longer and break down less (in theory).; ▶ Reply to This

Can you bring that 4-500 desktop into a best buy, oh yeah Geeksquad, and expect to get fleeced? Me thinks, "Yes" would be the answer, but a Mac that is the same age inside of a year, could be brought into an apple store, and you can expect much better attention, the truth explained of your problem, and likely repaired for next to nothing.

Better hardware, better service, more stable OS. This is what we once had in PC's when they used to cost more than 1000 on the low end. We threw all of that away for cheap pc's.; ▶ Reply to This

Only thing I dislike is the need by the insecure to put down the other person's preference with slurs about their choice, or slurs directed at the other person simply for choosing to prefer something different from them.; ▶ Reply to This

But everybody thinks that everyone who has a PC must have windows, with that I kinda feel discriminated :D; ▶ Reply to This

Some people say that people are stupid and become totally rude to people for having their own opinions. When you think about it, it's almost like if you were eating french fries (for lack of a better food) and someone comes up to you and whacks it out of you hand and says you're a stupid idiot, why the heck are you eating french fries. Unfortunately some people let it get to that point. LOL did anyone get that? :D; ▶ Reply to This
