Marta, There was so much to talk about that it is hard to know where to start, for me the BEST thing he said was the percent of Mac's being sold, it was something like 20.7%!!!! Think about that, just think. All the other producers of Windoze machines out there and I assume for the last quarter the Mac sold 1 in 5. Kiss my Grits, this is awesome!!
Just Tuesday of this week I had a carpenter at the house doing some work, I had moved him to a Mac a few years ago but his daughter wanted a laptop, so instead of paying $1,100.00 for a Mac he paid $400.00 plus change for a Dell. Then she spent just over $300.00 for something that would totally prevent virus attacks. (Right). This purchase was 9/23/10 of this year. Three weeks later the thing was destroyed by a virus. He took it back to Best Buy, standing in line with two other guys, he was the third in line. When the first guy booted up his machine the 2nd guy in line moaned and Robert looked around him and he also moaned. All three of these new PC's had the same virus, all gotten last weekend. The three of them got into a discussion about the horrors of the PC and the cost to repair. Another $350.00. So now we are more than a Mac and he has only owned it three weeks. When they ask about a time to get it back they said it was going to be awhile for they had dozens and dozens in the back with the same problem. The penny wise and pound foolish axiom sure comes into play when these PC folks keep going back again and again to the same vomit, but then again we are now 20.7% and HALF those are Windoze converts. My friend is going to go in and demand his money back, going to tear the roof off if he has to. Doesn't want cash, he wants to apply what has already been spend and get a Mac. I hope he has learned this time. John _______________________________________________ MacGroup mailing list [email protected] http://www.math.louisville.edu/mailman/listinfo/macgroup
