Went to 3 Starbucks yesterday, saw only 3 apple laptops

I'd think the creative types (regardless of Mac or PC use) would be more likely to be unemployed since those jobs are much harder to get than almost any other kind of job, and more unstable when you have them.

OTOH, pretty much anything is unstable right now, and pretty much everyone uses a PC anyway.
 
I was in Starbuck's yesterday killing time with my iPad. 3 girls came in, grabbed a table and continued drinking their Dunkin Donuts coffee.

I hate those people. They've been around ever since Apple released the PowerBook in 1991, sitting around in coffee shops in the middle of the day wasting time. They always have a 15" MBP £1500 laptop that they use for word processing and light web browsing. They can't wait to give you their liberalist view on the world (I'm liberal, but nothing about being liberal means I have to give a crap about your opinion, because I honestly don't, why care about mine? That's the reason I come on places like here, for intelligent debate in my own time).

Oh and Starbucks is awful.. just awful.

I agree my friend... Panera attracts the same type
 
Is it because Starbucks is big now or what? Why do so many people bash its taste? I think starbucks is really good and in fact I don't see how it has a bad taste. I could understand the argument that it isn't worth the price as compared to other coffees but I don't see how the argument that it taste bad can be made and held up.
 
I find I can never get anything done is those places. I get distracted by a good lookin woman at the next table or, in the case of Panera, I feel uneasy sitting there taking up space while other people are looking for a place to sit and eat their lunch. Besides.. they frown on me surfin porn.
 
Actually, nowadays it's likely (if the Starbucks has 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi access) that the people sitting down may be using an iPad, iPhone or even iPod touch to access the Internet. As such, you won't be seeing so many people using a real Mac laptop as in the past.
