Microsoft fanboys, and a lot of them!

Was checking out facebook recently and stumbled across one of Mashables many facebook posts. This one was about Apple, and how they’re the most profitable retail in America. So I thought why not and clicked the image to watch some facebook comments and opinions on this particular subject.

Here’s a look through my eyes:

And the list kept going on and on about how Apple sucks – I thought to myself, if Apple suck so hard, how come they have the biggest success in America?

This is the post from Mashable triggering the above statements:

Apple Stores: The Most Profitable Retail In America [INFOGRAPHIC]

Some might say “They’re just good at marketing”, and maybe they are – but you can’t build an entire company on marketing. You have to make a good product to represent, in order to sell it – and at Apple’s prices, it better be good.

But seriously, the top comment just pissed me off:

Apple is a product for people who have no idea about technology.

And he wasn’t the only one stating something like that.

So here’s a message going out to all fanboys:

It’s time to stop hating, and start loving. Both Apple and Linux is moving alongside Microsoft, which is great. Competition leads to improvements, which has been a lack in the OS industry the past couple of years.

Time to stop Microsoft’s monarchy.

Want success? Work for it.

  1. Well, in my opinion Apple is just as bad as Microsoft, when it comes to their goal: Complete Monopoly on the market for operating systems.

    When thats said, I am still a Windows man, however I’m open for other operating systems as Google OS and Linux, but as you all are aware of, it is quite a big change to switch OS completely, as the possibilities are varying alot from OS to OS.

    When it comes to Apple’s market of PC’s (yes, a Mac is still a PC, GOOGLE IT!), I think that Apple needs to be taught a lesson. They are slowing down the development of technology by prioritising profit over research. People are not aware of that, when they are buying their phones with old hardware using a fancy OS. The average smartphone using an Android OS has much better hardware, the Android operating systems are not as fancy, but are much more open to developers.

    I love Apple’s design and the simplicity of their operating systems, but I am always ready to put that aside to get a newer technology and more possibilities instead, as I would when looking for a new PC (new components).
