Despite Patent Settlement, Apple Pulls Bose Merchandise From Its Stores
Apple has long sold Bose headphones and speakers in its retail stores, including in the time since it acquired Bose-competitor Beats Audio, and despite the lawsuit filed by Bose against Apple alleging patent violations on the part of Beats. That's come to an end this week, though: Apple's dropped Bose merchandise both in its retail locations and online, despite recent news that the two companies have settled the patent suit.

Maybe you could help your idol out and upload a pic of him that does not make him look like such a bone smuggler.
Apple's products are priced only a very little bit higher than what other PC manufacturers offer given the exact same hardware
Actually, the high-end Mac Pro is currently cheaper.
By comparing a build that costs as much as a car?!?
You guys can't be fucking serious with this shit.
Mac hardware is good, but stop calling it some kind of fucking bargain when you need to eclipse the $9000 mark for a computer to prove it. You get what you pay for, and with Apple, you pay a shitload with almost zero upgrade capability.
If that works for you, fine. But you're trying to compare a Ferrari build to a Porsche build to see which is cheaper. If you can afford a $10,000 PC, then you likely aren't pinching pennies, sot the argument is rather pointless.
