The only thing weak here is the tiny % of people who choose Mac.

Also very correct. Something you've yet to be since birth.

How bad is OS X then if it's getting just clobbered by an "inferior"
OS. LOL  98% vs  2%


Apple and Computers don't mix anymore. It's all about consumption for
Apple now.

The average price spent buying a computer system is in the $6-700.00
range at retail (and less for corporations). Apple's lowest price for
a system is $1000.00 and there is no real corporate discount to speak
of. In the '$1000.00 and above' retail market segment Apple holds 90+
%. To allude that the Windows market share percentage has everything
to do with Windows itself (an OS made by a company that doesn't sell
traditional computer systems) isn't honest. To compare the offerings
from one company (who sells the hardware and the software that bear
their brand) against the entire remainder of the computing industry
(who rely on MS for an OS) is just plain goofy. As Apple doesn't sell
their OS to manufacturers to put on their hardware and MS is really
the only other game in town (due to their previous monopoly practices
and shoving MSOffice down people's throat's during that time), of
course you'd expect Windows to have a number like it does. Do you
happen to know what the percentage is of people who choose to spend
under $1000.00 for a computer system? Do you think this number would
have any effect on the Windows market share number? For all the
education you continually crow about, that you can overlook these
basic facts is beyond bizarre unless you are one of two things: A
shameless troll who overlooks reality for the sole purpose of taunting
people or a complete idiot. I suppose you could be both. Were you
honest, your thread's title should read the percentage of people that
"choose" a computer system costing under $1000.00.

Part of this is because people do not do as you imply, Steve: they do not
say they want to pay over $1000.  They do say they want a Mac, and to get
the Mac, as you note, they pretty much have to spend over $1000.   Sure,
they get a good deal (in general) and comparable Windows machines cost about
the same, but it is not like people are out to spend at the top range of
computers!

In the *real* world, Steve, people want features - and they are willing to
pay for them.  They want ease of use, they want to not worry about malware,
etc.  Very few people - if any - *want* to pay $1000 or more.  If they could
get the same computer with the same warrantee and support, etc., through
legitimate means for, say, $500, they would.  I know *I* would have.  I and
many others are *willing* to pay more and find the cost well worth it, but
to say that people *look* to pay over $1000 is just absurd.  They *look* for
what they think is a good value for their money.

Really, Steve, this is not hard.  Are you going to be whining about this for
the next decade as you have with your confusion over absolute proof and the
level of proof needed in adjudication?

That was my point - your silliness was, as you say, "ridiculous".  People do
not seek paying a higher price than the norm as a feature.  Your claim was
absurd.  Or, as you say, "ridiculous".

None of them. Apple is irrelevant in the computer industry. They build
consumption devices.

Well, Apple.com said that Mac's run the "most advanced OS in the
world" and according to you, any site with "millions of hits each
month" has credibility, and since Apple ranks 100 places above
Gizmodo, what Apple says must be true.

By leading I mean the rest of the market is trying (and failing) to 
imitate them. You're blinded by market share.

And every single one of those devices are computers. You don't really

Your blinded by fanaticism. The world has seen OS X and rejected it.
This applies to both the desktop market and the enterprise. Your God,
Steve Jobs admitted it. Why can't you?

I realize you haven't got much in the way of a brain, Pratt-fall, but 
this was already discussed here relatively recently:

<http://itunes.apple.com/app/autocad-ws/id393149734?mt=8>

Try and make at least a little effort in the future, huh?

Well using your "Gizmodo Logic", Consumerreports.com ranks 533 in the
US according to Alexa and Apple ranks 25.  That means that Apple is
more credible than Consumer Reports since it gets "millions" more
hits.

Sales figures are this.

98% buy Windows

2% buy Crapple


Lay off the crack.

The world has seen OS X and summarily rejected it.

Suffering from second hand smoke, eh?

From W3Schools' log-files:

OS Platform Statistics

2010 	WinXP 	W2000 	Win7 	Vista 	W2003 	Linux 	Mac
Sep 	51.7% 	0.3% 	24.3% 	10.0% 	1.1% 	4.6% 	7.2%

Platforms that count for less than 0.5% are not listed.

Conclusion:
1. Win7 is only gaining at the loss of Vista and WinXP.
2. Both Mac and Linux gained over 7 years.
3. Microsoft share is now less than 90%.

Yup.

It's not Planet U.S., it's Planet Earth.

Windows 98%

OS X 2%

The world has seen OS X and summarily rejected it.

It can do quite a bit more than just crop.

Top editing features:
• Basics: Crop, Straighten, Rotate, and Flip
• Color: Exposure, Saturation, Tint, Black and White, and Contrast
• Filters: Sketch, Soft Focus, and Sharpen
• Effects: Vibrant, Pop, Border, Vignette Blur, Warm Vintage, Rainbow, 
White Glow, and Soft Black and White
• Borders: Rectangle, Rounded, Oval, Soft Edge, Vignette, Rough Edge, 
Halftone, and Film Emulsion

And the three reviews I saw had 2, 1, and 4 stars respectively, for an 
average of 2 1/3 stars, not one star.

You didn't have to lie about the product to show that it's not as full 
featured as a desktop version of Photoshop. Deliberately lying about its 
features and rating doesn't help your integrity and trustworthiness.

Since he has neither of those traits, it is just another trollish post

Oh I'm sorry. 2 Stars. Sounds awesome. LOL

I see you didn't address your lie about Photoshop Express' one and only 
function of cropping.

The thing is, you could have had a great argument with Photoshop Express 
not being as full featured as the desktop version. You chose instead to 
exaggerate the poor reviews and lie about the feature set, removing any 
chance that your argument would have any merit.

Trying to just laugh it off with a non-apology "sorry" makes it really 
appear as if your moral compass isn't adjusted correctly.

It's so obvious it's not full featured it doesn't need to be
mentioned. What needs to be mentioned is that it's not full featured
and really really bad, thus the 2 star reviews.  In conclusion, the
iPad is not a computer it's a 10" mp3 player.

Earlier your definition of computer or not was the existence of 
this-or-that app. Once shown such apps exist, now it becomes the quality of 
the app that defines computer or not. How much further can you drag a goal 
post?

Yet you lied about its features. If you didn't need to mention it, then 
why did you not only mention it, but lie about it as well?

> What needs to be mentioned is that it's not full featured and really
> really bad, thus the 2 star reviews.  In conclusion, the iPad is not a

Of course, what you don't mention is that the 2 1/3 star rating is an 
average of only the first three written reviews I saw on the page, one of 
which was a 4 star rating. Looking further on the page we're discussing, 
one notices that the average of the 3423 people who rated the current 
version of the app gave it 3 stars, and the average of the 106462 people 
who have rated any version of the app at one time or another is 3 1/2 
stars.

So once again, you are lying by exaggerating the poor reviews. You were 
trying to claim that a 3 1/2 star app was a 1 star app. When I mention 
the 3 written reviews had a higher average than 1 star, you merely 
assumed that those three were the only reviews and didn't look on the 
page to see the actual Customer Ratings averages.

Your credibility is severely hampered when you deliberately lie about a 
product. As I said before, you could have had a great argument simply by 
stating that Photoshop Express for the iPhone and iPad is not desktop-
based Photoshop. Yet instead of going that route, you deliberately chose 
to lie about its feature set and its average customer ratings.

Instead of putting a kink in Apple's armor, you allowed Apple's joust to 
skewer you because you didn't think anyone would call you on your blatant 
and wanton dishonesty.

Do your homework next time so that when you critique Apple, you are 
speaking the truth rather than making stuff up to try to promote your 
position.

Many of MuahMan's claims backfire like this. You'd think he'd learn, but 
like a cantankerous child who gets beat every time he's in Walmart, he just 
won't learn.

Ain't gonna happen. Like the scorpion and the frog, it's not in his nature.

It's so obvious it's not full featured it doesn't need to be

Computers have USB ports.  The iPad has none.  It's a cute toy.

So nothing that was built before the USB port was invented was a 
computer? IBM i5 series systems aren't computers?

I'm just asking questions about the criteria you're inventing.

No - the criteria you seem to be inventing.  Dance, little Apple meat

So a new modern computer shouldn't have the features that a twenty year old 
computer didn't?  Hahahahahaahahahaahah.  Well Apple certainly fits that 
bill.

I didn't invent the "computers have USB ports" criterion.
