Exactly, I am so sick of all these people who are trying to bring down Apple's name. To be honest the fact that this thread grown so long reeks of a conspiracy by all the PC manufacturers to defame Apple's good reputation.
Wow, that is paranoia, if I ever saw it!
How can anyone think something that absurd? I guess fanboyism has reached a new all-time high.
Any other revisionist all-is-relative thinking you'd like to share, all in order to defend your favourite company?PCs are PCs, Macs are Macs. What is a server to the PC platform is not a server to a Mac.
"Pee Cee Servers" running operating systems like FreeBSD may advertise uptimes of like 99.99999%, but that is the acceptable uptime for a "Pee Cee", for a Mac it is different. Which is why we have weekly downtimes at the Apple Store every week new products are added. It is all still good, we still have 90% uptime on the Mac platform anyway, and for a Mac it is unsurpassed.
Haha, yes, indeed
What high quality? Those desktop drives they call "server grade"? The bad build quality? Leopard bugs? Crappy screens an freezes on just about any hardware with a screen? What "commitment"?I for one am glad to get the very same high quality hard drives that are used in the XServe in my Time Capsule. Only Apple can deliver such high quality dedication and commitment to their customers.
You can claim that the hard disks used in the XServes are no different from those used in Dell desktops, but I beg to differ. That Apple logo on the drives still represents a mark of quality to me.
Ah yes blind brand loyalty is something Apple is the king of producing. I can see why the quality of Apple products has been going down in the last five years: People choose to buy the products even if it sucks. Because it's more about owning the brand, rather than the tool or toy.
