Now that's smart - anyone else do this too?

I have to assume that this is satire and the people taking it seriously are the ones on whom the joke has been perpetrated. 😂 it really is quite funny,

Not a good analogy, because the person who did this with a first gen iPod bought a first gen product.

It seems about $28,500 more stupid to me...

(Why else would I have said "almost"?) ^ ^

This person is really quite funny to be honest, at least to me and I find it quite entertaining and a change from some of the stuff I am reading in the press these days. Over elaborate I think, in the example in the link, but still funny.

This is brilliant, but should be taken further.

I'm going to buy TWO Macbooks. I'll keep one in the box and only use the second one. That way, the first one is in mint condition so I'll be able to sell it for loads in a few years time.

A good condition Apple I is going for usd$500K.

I got a few Cloud-9 Remotes, of the Wozniak fame, lets hear the bids

This reminds me of someone who drives 4 miles out of their way to save a nickel on a candy bar.

Or place a hot plastic cover over a leather sofa.

This is why Mac desktop sales are in the toilet. People buy MacBooks even though they'll never leave the house.

Support the Mac mini/studio/iMac etc!

I question one's ability to afford a $1000+ laptop if they're worried about this issue. Just use your computer and phone. They're tools. They're not investments.
