Sorry if this has been posted i couldn't find anything similar.

I thought it would be fun to see how much money we have all spent on Apple products or on computers in general.

Macbook bought in 07 $1800
5g iPod bought in 07 $250?
Various iTunes purchases $125
iPod mini $200?
Total $2375

I don't remember the exact prices though.

I'm also curious to see who has spent the most on Apple products.

Perhaps this will give some of us a reality check on how much we've spent.:D
 
My items as follows

Mac Mini - bought in 2005 cost me $799
Macbook (black) - bought in 2006 cost me $2800
PowerBook G4 (12inch) - bought last year cost me $800
Apple TV - bought last year (160gb) cost me $579
Time Capsule - bought last year (1TB) cost me $699
Aiport Exreme - bought 2006 - cost me $249
Leopard -bought last year cost me $158
Tiger - bought last year cost me about $140

Total Cost = 6224.00
 
Let's see...
$300 for 30GB iPod
~$30 for replacement USB cord
~$80 on Apple headphones
~$60 on iTunes
$1199 on Macbook
$183 AppleCare

$1852 not too bad. :)

I plan to add an iPhone, Time Capsule and an iMac once I get a job.
 
Not too much actually beings that I don't have an Apple computer...yet. It seems as though that may change soon due to all these rumors about a tablet and who knows...

$220- ipod mini 4gb blue (long time ago)
$330- 8gb ipod touch (don't have anymore)
$366- 16gb white iphone 3g with dock and anti-glare cover

Total = about $916
 
2007-
First Mac product ever, 24" iMac - $1750
iMac for Fiancee - $1750
iPod Nano 8GB for Fiancee - $200
iPhone 8GB - $400

Apple TV 160GB - $300

(not including AppleCare for 2 iMac and 1 AppleTV)

I still want a Time Capsule and a Macbook or MBP.

23" ACD: $650 (I think)

Sixteen years of expenses is too much to calculate. I'd guess somewhere around $45.000, with an $9.500 power mac G5 being the biggest chunk of that cost. That's not including what I've spent on iTunes, which is a lot (thousands). :eek:

Jobs, Amelio, Sculley, and Spindler owe me... big time.
 
iMac - £1009
Leopard - £79
Final Cut Express - £119

Total: £1294

That's all within the last 10 months D:

And next up is Logic Studio, which is £320... taking my total up to £1614 in around a year D:

Not bad for someone who has an income of £0... (that said, I saved up for my iMac for 9 months by selling my old lego sets on ebay. There's good money in it! xD)

Ahh, I don't know if I want to add these up.

iPhone 8GB - $599 (sold for $406 on eBay)
black 16GB iPhone 3G -$299

So I've spent $900 plus tax just for the iPhone! I've been trying to justify getting a Mac, but PCs are just better values all around, especially for upgradability.
 
£3550

ibook £1000
ibook 2 after the first died £1000
mac pro £1500
wireless keyboard £50

total £3550

though I hope not to need to spend any more (except maybe a new ipod)

iPod's £280
.mac £360 (so far)
software (iLife, iWorks Leopard were all family packs, aperture, Final Cut express) £480
Time Capsule £200
iSight £100
bits and bobs £150

So a total of £4,270

Intel Mac - £799
iPod Nano - £129

Total: £1,276
 
Between my Performa 575, Powermac G3, iMac G4, PB G4, printers, software, accessories [mice, kb, iSight, cables], iPods and various pieces of s/w, I guesstimate around $20,000 or so.

EDIT: I selected $10,001-$20,000 in the poll, although I might be just over $20,000 if I really went to the trouble to sit down and work it out. Spent all that money, but I still want more.
