I recently got a 2010 Macbook pro for free. It has an SSD and upgraded ram. It honestly runs great, feels just as snappy as my 2000$ gaming rig and all the music production software (mainstage, reaper, pro tools, ableton) I run on it runs great including in live settings. I don't think I would buy a brand new one as the price point still make me uncomfortable, and the complete lack of ports is absurd, but that being said, I understand why someone who makes their living off of using production software would appreciate the consistency of the product.

It's literally the only option for consumer end user Unix workstations left in the entire industry. Everyone else either went bankrupt or went enterprise only.

On top of that Apple has very good support which is what end users, as well as professionals, need and care about. The level of support combined with unified hardware standards, ubiquity of the software, and an ecosystem provided for you, is probably why most professionals choose Apple products. As much as they get shit for being "expensive" they're cheap when considering more than just the machine itself then comparing that to other business/enterprise grade solutions with the same level of service(s). Consumers break their shit all the time too and with Apple it's very easy to just walk into a store and walk out with a replacement as long as you're covered, even if you're not and you need a new machine their ecosystem makes it a non-issue since all your shit is synced up.

Regardless, the whole reason people use them is because they have 0 competition that comes close in the consumer-professional market for the same price.

I don't really need one so I don't have one. I wouldn't mind owning one, but while they're cheaper than the alternative they're not cheap enough to buy for no reason on top of your existing machine. My machine cost more than the highest Macbook Pro, I'm not looking to double that cost every few years unless I get a job where they don't supply a workstation and I need a dedicated, highly reliable machine.

1. Makes then look "cool", so they can inflate their ego further.
2. They know nothing about technology and just buy what other normies are buying.

There a reason why these people are so popular and its because they're too normal and people aspire to become that in order to fit in.

There is a difference between willingly engaging in a discussion about a product and being served an advertisement for one against your will.

Specs just don't matter much on a mac, he DOES mention the specs he got by the way.

Macs are like consoles versus pcs if you think of gaming. They're optimized, everything works great and they're much more efficient at using hardware. What matters is the experience and not just the numbers and parts since those are not necessarily a great indicator of how the computer's gonna work.

Its not discussion. Every time, a headless chicken OP clueless on what to buy, doesn't even have a clue what he wants but just wants something, then the neckbeards detect the prepared cash and descend upon the thread recommending ThinkPads and Dells. Its funny you say people buy Macs as a """status symbol""" to fit in or something (which nobody acknowledges in the real world) when people here buy shit on the advice of anonymous autists to fit in. People here are so lonely they'll all buy the same products just to talk about them to each other on the internet. The ThinkPad circlejerk generals are a prime example.

This. A high spec Windows machine is a video game player. Mac vs PC spec comparisons are retarded, because they're not intended to run the same operating system. Its just as dumb as Android vs iPhone spec comparisons. You can't compare two things which run different operating systems for performance. Its not logical. That is /v/ shit. The main reason why Macs are more expensive is because Apple makes and develops its own operating system on all its products, this is a massive stress on the company. Windows OEMs just need to cram some gathered components in a chassis and sell it with a generic Windows install.

Why do you think the Pixel is more expensive than the iPhone? Google's first round of tailor made OSes were expensive to do.

You know, usually, when people do 'comparisons', they're of two machines in the same category for price or performance. Nobody has ever compared a 6950X dual Titan X Pascal rig to a MacBook Air you fucking cretin.

>Do you even have any sort of proof that macOS runs significantly better on Apple hardware than Windows?

macOS is a tailored OS optimized for a specific set of machines and SKUs which Apple makes, I don't know how to tell this to you but, there's nothing stopping a much more powerful machine brute forcing its way into better macOS raw performance. You forget things like stability and such but that's because you're an idiot.
>>
The average person doesn't understand that modern Apple sells the same hardware for an enormous markup, and OS X is a lot nicer than Windows for day-to-day tasks. The casual games that aren't available on console that some might want to play run just fine on OS X. Apple's customer service and support, while not what it used to be, is still significantly better than average.

>>57627945
It's much older that that.

>>57629652
No, it won't. He'll simply transform into an uppity, angst-ridden jackass, who will believe that he "surpassed" minimum wage due to his innate superiority rather than the fact that the value of experience tends to be rewarded with increased wages for retention purposes. You can't fix stupid.

Most open homosexuals are at least upper middle class, since that's about the level of society where the stigma ceases to be harmful in meaningful ways. If you correct for class position, they're probably about on par with their peers.

>>57633285
OS X is not magic. Windows runs rather well on dated hardware too. Core 2 is ten years old at this point. The problems arise when you actually want to run a performance-intensive application or benchmark. OS X usually lags behind Windows in terms of general performance, and anything OpenGL vs. Dirext X related is comically one-sided in favour of Direct X at this point.

I'm glad you discovered common sense and realized I wasn't talking about a Raspberry Pi outperforming a dual xeon workstation with mere software optimizations.

>but I asked for proof of your claims

I said it right there, are you dumb or blind? There's nothing stopping macOS benching higher on a $3000 rig than Apple's own hardware. With that, I said specs don't matter, I'm sorry if you have autism and need everything perfectly and explicitly stated for it to make sense to you, but I was clearly talking about comparisons of similar performing machines. I happen to think the entire comparison thing is dumb anyway because people who want a Mac buy it for the operating system and the user experience. The only spec comparisons they do are within the Apple line.
>>
>>57633883
>I'm glad you discovered common sense and realized I wasn't talking about a Raspberry Pi outperforming a dual xeon workstation with mere software optimizations.
Neither was I. Ok, so specs matter sometimes and you decide when?

>With that, I said specs don't matter, I'm sorry if you have autism and need everything perfectly and explicitly stated for it to make sense to you, but I was clearly talking about comparisons of similar performing machines.
Yes, and I asked for a comparison like this.

>people who want a Mac buy it for the operating system and the user experience.
I disagree, I think the design/specs are more attractive (well, were) than macOS.

You realize you don't have to insult people who disagree with you. I didn't wake up today and decided I was going be an ass to the first person I saw online, I just happened to not agree with your assessment. You can call me an autist for the N-th time if you want, but it doesn't make up a very interesting debate.

You need to use it quite a lot, not just once. Also importantly, as your personal computer. Using it in a work setting isn't quite the same. You'll soon realize its basically Linux power and customisability in a polished, stable and highly optimized package, with long term support.

The 27" iMac is fantastic if you buy your own RAM, it's a fair price and a great machine. The base model 13" rMBP is also pretty good overall. And the engineering that goes into an iPhone is pretty amazing, including the software, but people on /g/ aren't really interested in that because it's not FOSS or whatever.

Nah. The iMac display was gorgeous for the time, but it desperately needs an update now.
iPhones are meh largely. After the 5S the design is so fucking boring so I simply don't care about them anymore.
Really though, the Macbooks were the only godly product Apple produced, kind of sad to see this years model be so lackluster.

I'm talking about in terms of overall cost and what you get--it's a premium machine and it's fairly priced compared to alternatives. I agree that it needs a refresh but it's still a good machine and it's a comparable value to its competitors (i.e. when you factor in the display).

I don't really care about the "boring" design of the iPhone--all smartphones literally look exactly the same, and any time anyone goes off of the res, it looks like shit and functions poorly.

I don't get the touch bar gimmick but I've honestly never seen one IRL, and the base model doesn't have it anyway.

For sure, at the time. That's largely where the Studio has taken its initiative from. Relatively nice specs, amazing display, and a reasonable price for it all. iMacs just don't compete with that anymore and apple is really slow to update, and when they do, so far the update has been a disaster.

Can you be more specific? I haven't looked at Microsoft's offering but I'd be a little surprised if it were better overall, and if it is that's likely only because it just launched very recently (a couple of months?)

In any case they're allegedly launching a new iMac in 2017

This wasn't ever about it being better or worse than the iMac display, some faggot claimed the Dell monitor is less than $500, when it's actually more than $1600. It launched at $2500 while iMacs that had 5K displays started at $2000 at launch. Obviously the iMac display is way more limited given you can only use it with the hardware built into the display, but that has fuckall to do with with the false claim that The Dell display was 1/3rd it's actual current price.

>>57638141
You can get a 4k IPS display for 350 dollars now just for comparisons sake

Peer pressure and social stigma. Apple devices are easy to recognize and considered the norm.

If you have a Samsung or Pixel, people tend to think you cheaped out or simply out of touch.

Basically form over function where people don't give a shit about being smart consumers and buy stuff which has good value for money.
>>
>>57638172
It's an IGZO IPS panel, what do you mean "not a real IPS

It doesn't need to have 100% AdobeRGB to be IPS, it either uses in plane switching or it doesn't.

>>57638191
Yes, a display with half the pixels is significantly cheaper. Technology is always that way, you pay a premium for a smaller gain. Look at how much more Nvidia charges for a Titan X compared to a GTX 1080, or a 1080 vs the 1070. Personally I'd much rather save the $1100 and just get 4K as that resolution is already really good for a 27" display.

its actually only like 40% more pixels, they're not 1:1 proportional.

This display is shit, no one even works in 5k and the next logical step up is 8k

>>57638297
The 5K iMac has dual Thunderbolt / mini-DisplayPort outs, so you can connect it to the Dell 5K monitor if you want to.

You're a faggot though, I use a cheap ass chink WQHD monitor.

>>57638268
>Look at how much more Nvidia charges for a Titan X compared to a GTX 1080,
performance wise they're miscible. A titan X doesn't have anything over the 1080 but 4 more GB of memory for like 400 more dollars. No one uses these.

What? It's got 50% more ROPs, more shaders, and a wider memory bus.

And of course people buy them, sure it's not most of the market but most of the market also isn't buying 5K Dell monitors.
>>
>>57638413
No one buys them, its a flag ship meme card that gets drown out by the 1080 because buying two 500 dollar cards in SLI out performs a titan X significantly
>>
>>57638440
>No one buys them
Keep telling yourself that, sure it's a low volume product compared to something like the GTX 1070, 1060, or RX 480 but there is still a market for them. If there wasn't, Nvidia's stock price wouldn't be at record highs right now.
>>
>>57638474
>Keep telling yourself that
it doesn't come anywhere near the amount of advertisement and hype Nvidia throws into it. For all intents and purposes the 1080 is the high end gaming card. Titan cards were always shit and never any better than the GPU line up supporting it.

Hell when the FIRST titan came out, a GTX 6900 was 300 dollars cheaper and out performed it
>>
>>57638503

That's because it relied on SLI and had less usable video memory, and much worse FP64 performance.
