Apple and Religion Stimulate Brain in Same Way

[dextermat]

APPLE + JOB = BUMBUM RELIGION

Explains why the same person that thinks a Burning Bush was talking to an old geezer and that Bush Was GOD also needs a one button mouse.

Apple fanboyism is like the next Scientology -- the people follow blindly, believe stuff that isn't true, and are willing to give up tons of their cash for their beliefs.

$1500 macbook? There is only one model of "Macbook" and it is $999. Even the most expensive model of "Macbook Air" is $1599. Dell's most expensive laptop BEFORE CUSTOMIZATION is $2580. And its processor is only 2GHz. Apple's laptops go up to 2.2 GHz. And all Apple laptops can run Windows, while none of Dell's can run Mac OS X, so only Apple comes with that sort of obsolescence guarantee.

People who buy Macs are sheeps.
Same with people who buy Dell, HP, etc.

Now sheeps, argue on.

[citation][nom]Tedders[/nom]Apple makes hardware just like Microsoft, Logitech, Dell, HP and etc yet Apple gets stories like this posted about it just because it increases traffic. [/citation]

Um no they don't. They use standard equipment like any other PC. They may design their own special boards to fit their computers and ugly cases to put it all in but they don't even build those. Apple out sources all manufacturing they are simply a designer. O and as far as i know microsoft is the same way. I'm not even sure if dell or HP do anything but simply put the pieces together. But they use a lot of AMD INTEL, ASUS, GYGABITE, SEAGATE, WD< HITACHI, MAXTOR, and so on parts. which I am pretty sure none of them make.

[citation][nom]joytech22[/nom]So now there's no such thing as Jobs? (Instead of God? Get it? Argh..)And before anybody gets defensive, I'm religious, wow this might get flamed, not sure..[/citation]

The difference is Jobs is real. Though he might be just as evil.

[citation][nom]back_by_demand[/nom]So if there have been scandles involving Catholic priests molesting small boys, does that mean Apple fans are all paedophiles?[/citation]

No they finger the iproducts in secret under the sheets.

In the future we need to have the option to remove that part of our brain with surgery.

Maybe that's why I'm both an agnostic and Apple-hater.

My stepson, who sent me this came up with the catchy term iTheism™ to describe appleheads.

[citation][nom]Gamer-Girl[/nom]I'm not religious, maybe thats why it doesn't affect me?[/citation]
You think so.

 

[shihabyooo]

[citation][nom]blurr91[/nom]Yes but can it run Crysis 2?[/citation]

And you expect him to have a comeback at this ?

Sir, I salute you !

It's amusing that a fanboy has stepped up to defend the product with what the article was all about. You even made a account just to do such.

But lets look at that $999 Macbook shall we?
http://www.apple.com/macbook/specs.html

Wow lets just look at the CPU alone 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
outdated and a much cheaper laptop comes with a CPU more powerful than that these days. Do I even need to go on about the Macbook?

Apple laptops can run Windows

This wasn't always the case. But Apple came to realize it was just handicapping itself by limiting it. Despite it being able to you need to buy the OS which is around $100 for the premium edition. Plus installing Windows on it is basically admitting defeat within itself. How often do you hear a Widnows user say "I really wish I could install OSX"?
So you expect people to buy overpriced, hardware inferior laptops due to it running OSX which even you a fanboy are quick to point out can run Windows instead. Thanks but I think I will buy the hardware superior laptop for less money.

Things start getting really out of hand with the Macbook pro series.
http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/specs.html sure they have decent hardware now but the prices, my god they are out of hand. To make matters worse the lowest costing one only has a 13 inch screen and its $1200! The 13,15, and 17 inch versions are literally double the price than a hardware equivalent competitors products. So what does this leave, what is the difference? OSX? Is OSX really worth $1250 out of the $2500 price-tag of the 17 inch Macbook pro?

I invite any Apple fanboy to try to defend such.

Maybe someday my brain synapses will be recorded, and when I die they will upload into an apple computer, so that I may live forever.

Where cult and religion are also in the same manner... why not call Apple and Cult stimulate the brain in the same way?

 

[Benihana]

Reminds me of an article I once read where it was something like "eating carrots kill you". You can find statistically significant relationships with anything.

 

[marraco]

In the case of Apply, is ever fangirlism.

 

[livebriand]

Apple computers being better than Microsoft ones is bullshit. Oh wait, religion is also bullshit. Coincidence? I think not.

 

[livebriand]

So that's why I'm an athiest and at the same time I hate Apple products.

The world did not end today because Camping used an iPad to complete his biblical calculations - he was last seeing at Best Buy purchasing a Dell Notebook... he will make an announcement about the next End of the World date in the coming days... stay tuned

Just confirms what we've known for a long time
