Expressing my personal opinion is not a logical fallacy. Reporting my personal experience is not a logical fallacy.
anecdotes are cute, but they don't serve the overall discussion; no matter how relevant they are to you personally.
the point is: apple hardware has the overwhelming customer satisfaction, customer service and build quality data that matters when these topics are brought up. statistically significant data trumps online pissing, always.
unless you are developing exclusively windows apps/content (and maybe even then), apple's make the most sense. the only serious developers who write them off are those that don't have a grand to spend on a computer. and then how serious can you really claim to be if you can't afford that?
serious developers switch TO apple/OS X, but not back. except as a publicity stunt. or to be a fucking curmudgeon.
No. They don't vanish because of people wanting things that only take a little bit of wood. They vanish from things that take a ridiculous amount of wood... like the framing of your domicile and the furniture in it, and the tens of millions like it (maybe you live in an igloo, but you get the point). Spending energy trying to make these guys feel bad about their little business endeavor seems like a waste of your ecology-minded efforts.
That said, these cases still look like bad caskets. So maybe that will save a few trees after all.
Forrest who? We're running out of guys named Forrest?
In any case, I'm not too concerned that these guys are going to have an impact on the global ecosystem. One natural forest fire will take out 1000 times more living wood than this project will.
The real reason not to buy these cases is... they look like computer caskets! Yuck. I can't picture a less attractive facade for my equipment. I'll stick with a good old-fashioned G5, thanks.
okay... don't wanna ruffle any religious feathers out there (well maybe i do). but has anyone explored the mo-mo connection on these smirking tards that took over the SCO name for profiteering's sake?
after seeing their names splashed all over and talking to colleagues who knew them, i had to see their bios and pics. pictures, in this case, speak a 1000 words.
what constitutes good-looking? perm-damaged, blond dye-jobs and a face like the slutty sexretary on ally mcbeal (no offense)? or is it the title of 'assistant to the ceo' that gets you hot?
what they really need is a decent graphic designer for their site...

they always have. forever. where have you been?
they can drive huge external monitors, seamlessly from the OS, with no special drivers. always have.
apparently the real stats of build quality and customer satisfaction don't matter...?
we all know who wins when the factual data is brought to the discussion.

you are not and you ain't... anything... except maybe 14 and half.

yes. the OS by the same company whose death has been proclaimed every 6 months for the last 20 years.
only problem with these proclamations of death is that they are, um... FALSE!
either you are a young tyke who has never used a Mac, or you are an old fart who should retire.
go away. just go away.

they're actually smirking in their photos!
