Re: Whats the point?

said by Mchart See Profile :

The majority of folk that buy any apple product could care less about the tech specs. All they care about is getting it in a shiny pink.

Oh, and dont forget that your favorite -Insert random popular culture star here- has one.
That's not necessarily so.

Hey, I'm a self admitted Mac convert, but I'm not picking up an iPhone any time soon. Besides the technical specs, I have no interest in having Cingular as my cell provider.

I'll probably go with a Treo when my contract is up....

You don't strike me as the kind of person who purchases a product because -insert random star here- has it.

Unfortunatly, the majority of the people in the world purchase products because of that fact; something apple is good at doing.

Thanks for the compliment, you hit the nail on the head.

The only way a product garners my loyalty is by providing good service for what I think is a decent price.

I AM willing to pay a premium price for what I think is a superior product, hence my Mac loyalty. I know people have a different opinion, and I respect that, but my experience with my 2 Macs has been nothing short of fantastic.

Same thing with Verizon wireless. I've had nothing but a %100 positive experience with them. Coverage, service, and call quality has been excellent.

Any of these service providers falls short, I'll drop 'em like a bad habit. I had Comcast HSI for years. Sold a LOT of friends on CHSI. When my experience went south, I dropped them.

I'm not loyal to ANY brand, I'm loyal to good service....
