Hahahahaha...

Should read... "Apple has a good market share but that can be easy shrunk in two years or less as WINDOZE people tend to replace WINDOZE devices that quickly."

At an online auction that closed today, a 7 year old G4 17" Powerbook, (which can only use an OS version Apple no longer supports) sold for $430.

Apple folk also get to use their equipment without virus protection, and that equipment has a much longer useful life. I am typing this on my 3 year old 24" iMac. I also own a 17" Powerbook older than the one sold, and have some antique Powerbooks from the 90's that still surf the web and when new created some marvelous work product. I shelved my MacBook 13" for an iPad, since I rarely need portability for more than browsing and email. I also have an iPhone 4, for which I pay Verizon an extra $20 a month for wifi hotspotting...

I doubt you can find a single Microsoft driven laptop of equal age to that PowerBook which will even be useful for more than a boat anchor.

Apple is just a company. You really can’t have sex with it.

I happen to have a HP 17” laptop I bought in April 2004. Works great still and plenty powerful. 8 years old and still kicing perfectly. Wife has her Dell 17” laptop from December 2004. Same thing; works great. We both have 13” lightweight ones we bought last year and even a iPad, but they are all tools, not something to get off about.

So much for your Apple humping.
