Like i said before, apple makes good products. they just remove the customizability in order to give you more robustness. I completely understand your situation where bad experiences drive you away. I personally dont need the mac robustness and i dont care to be trendy. What i use computers for it would be silly for me to purchase anything other than a windows pc. 

This was a thread about a guy asking for opinions. I gave him mine, which to reiterate was in his case he should buy one but personally dont like them. I then gave some explinations and justifications.

Wasnt looking to deal any lumps. preference is preference like you said earlier. I do recomend you get familiar with the buisness and see if that skews your opinion at all. given the choice between 2 otherwise comperable setups prefer giving my money to the less shady group.

Here is a puppy.

Im out of here before i get sent to bolivia by the apple fanboys.

I dont buy apple products because I understand technology and I use my computer for gaming. Apple products are the best in the buisness for video editing. Beyond that they are overpriced and under engineered. 

On top of all of that, I disagree with the buisness model that apple uses. In a similar line to people who dislike nike for their buisness decisions.

Apple products are exlusive and rapidly replaced. So not only are you "forced" to replace the products more often, but you are forced to buy expensive accessories that come standard from other companies. Additionally, if you have heard about the samsung lawsuit, I have lost any respect i had for them. Years ago apple admitted to taking other peoples technologies and wraping it in a new pretty box. but to turn around and sue a company for billions of dollars because the product was "substanially the same" is a farce.

Apple make reliable, userfriendly, robust, trendy, cool looking products. anyone who tells you differently is a fanboy and should be ignored. Depending on the application (which in this case is video editing which is the one thing mac is unquestionably better than windows) macs are a great option. That said, based on what ive mentioned earlier, i will never own an apple product.

Realistically though, If you are doing video editing (which im assuming you are because of the camera) macs are legitamitly good at that.

I highly recommend you do not buy from a store as well, you can honestly get one for cheeper using next day delivery from a store online (newegg is my go to).

Ive got an Asus 17" laptop quad core 2.8 ghz with 500gb hd, 4gb ram, and a nice video card for under 800 bucks. its never had any issues at all. I love it. That said, I am a tech guy (ive built 2 computers from scratch) and i am able to trouble shoot any issues i come across. I have had no such troubles in the 2 years ive had this laptop, but there is something to be said about fixing your own problems on technology. If you need to buy a mac due to the idiot proofness of it thats fine. I got my mom an iphone for that same reason.

Its ok bud, I did the same exact thing today with the general admission seating. Fortunately a mod helped me out and deleted my thread within 30 seconds before anyone had a chance to inb4delete.

thought i had cought every thread over the past two days, just posted this in a new thread. 

THANK WHICHEVER MOD SAVED ME WITH A 30 SECOND DELETED THREAD.

Taking requests

Welcome aboard sir.

Shut this down guys, Its not worth it.

Great team effort.

Go Blue

Beat Ohio!

suddenly, its a MLS game.

How this for a head scratcher.

ESPN either has, or is tied for, the highest average rank for 11 of the 15 schools. It has the highest for every school in the top 10 except for us. and we are the only school of the 15 to have espn give the lowest score.

Interesting

If football isnt a fassion show, then why do you care about the fassion aspect so much.

I will never understand boxing. Throw these guys in the cage and see who is the most tallented fighter. 

UFC > Boxing

Why is this news?

Sounds like you made a poor purchasing decision.

Does anyone else feel like there are just too many FBS teams now adays?

I think cutting down from 120-124 to ~50 would help a lot. D1 football is really the only kind people pay attention to so we would be abel to sustain 5-6 conferences at 8-10 teams each while still dividing up the tv market shenanigins. 

Then disalowing d1-d2 games and you will increase your product all around because all of the worth while football teams will play eachother more often. Go from having potentially 3 interesting games per year like we have today to having every game being against a quality opponent. 

Varsity sport in 1879 vs 1896    Older

National Championships 11 vs 6     Better

All time record 902–314–36 (.735) vs 641–431–44 (.594)      Better

Head to head record 67-32-5 (.668) Better

Stadium 114000 vs 80000 Larger

Based purely on statistical facts, we are the Big Brother indeed. 

Can we all get over the damn uniforms? It doesnt have any relivance to the teams ability to play at all. Until they change the teams colors or football helmets quit the bitching.

I realize Michigan is known for having some of the most scruitizing fans in college athletics but I am honeslt beginning to get angry with the number of people who are more concerned with the least important aspect of the game than they are with anything else. Get over it.

Neg away all you OCD uniform crazies.

These make my Mondays guys. Great work as always, keep it up. Looking forward to the UFR as well. Love me some Mgoblog.

Ive known of this, but never took the time to figure it out, i love you.

The Hoke epic point

He Has never lost at home

Poop gold on their head

Lol at +1 think of the Dantonio presser

Also, Hoke & Co. havent lost at home. Lets keep it going boys.

I dont understand all the uniform hate up in here. Not saying change is always good, or that I have like all of our uniform variations, but Im game for something new every now and again.

I think im the only person here who actually like the ND asymetrical uniforms for being unique. Do I like it enough to change stuff like that perminently? no, but special uniforms gets publicity, publicity leads to getting your name out there, and the more your name is out there the more recruits hear it. Does a single uniform sway a commits decision? no, but again, as long as you arent being reported for an NCAA violation, any press is good press.

I agree completely, I have more respect for Herbstreit after listening to his comments. Good man Herbie.

Ive heard similar stories over the years. I can remember 3 in the past 5 years. Same scenario. Regardless, good to hear, well done son.

Lol Indiana

I think i might be the only person who wants MSU to win. 

Every OSU loss is 1 step closer to the nuts fanbase giving meyer a heart attack.

6 turnovers and we lost by 1 td. Im very dissapointed, but the game was still close. 

hahaha, just turned on the game and they are kicking the extra point. epic

Why cant we get the live chat thing going for the rest of the games and a seperate one for the Michigan game?

I hate people. specifically groups of people. The big house contains a particularly large group of people. If you are with friends at a big game, like the UTL ND game last year, which I was, yes absolutely, there is not a better place to be than at the game, but vs umass? im sorry, its not worth the hassel for me.

Question my fandom if you must, but ill be watching this weekends game on my couch, and loving every minute of it.

I was laughing at that all game, same position in the huddle every time so that camera angle comes up...

Where is Magnus. Lets get a way too early scouting report.

Another one?

Well fuck.

yep, thats about it.

Rough day for Michigan Football, but ive got faith in Hoke & Co to get things streight before B1g Play. In the grand scheme of things this lost was the best one we could take all season. 

Go Blue

For not having an opinion, you sure did post a lot twice

Its so damn close! ARG

Also, Lewan is a beast.

I love you.

Happy and a little sad all at the same time

im losing my mind, need more football

good read, thanks for the post!

seriously, what the fuck.

that post is fucking epic. for once im glad to see a double post.

Lebron seems like a pretty good guy.

balls, this is a good time for it to happen, but really unfortunate all the same.

I had not seen this before, makes me like him even more. great video.

he has the most obnoxious voice ive ever heard, jennings isnt much better. makes me want to skip all of the videos.

nope and nope. never liked the the look of big bulky class rings. feels too much like you are trying to show off.

spiderman.

welcome to the team sir.

ok team, its been a rough day, but in the grand scheme of things some extra paint on the football field which will in no way hinder the team or your watching experience at all, is not cause for alarm.

Lets reconvene tomorrow when everyone has taken a few deep breaths and has an understanding of relevence once more.

break

1 stripe across shoulders and block m. aparently the ugliest thing half of mgoblogers have ever seen.

...

wait for it

...

Yeah, thats long enough, fucking epic.

The biggest question for me about the legend numbers is how can there be NEW legends formed if the 5 best (eventualy) players on the team every year are wearing a legend number.

I enjoyed the video, till i saw this link in the related. still good clip splicing tho.

This whole thing is.... Creepy

Really? nice! i was under the impression they handed out 6 like they did at dallas. Go Shane!

The vote totals are from noon, the standings are up to date.

Walkons with an offer from anywhere is pretty cool. probably will never see the field, but will get one hell of an education which is more than most schools will ever get to say.

Congrats, Always good to see Michigan players getting their dream chance in the NFL. good luck to him. Go Blue

Smith would not comment on Koger's future in the NFL, other than to say, "He will be fine, and he will play in the NFL."

Smith would not comment other than to comment... Well played sir.

Jones is a beast man. 

Buckleing up seems like the safe bet, then you are ready to go regadless of the decision. Lets keep the recruiting machine rollin Hoke & Co.

+1 internet to Mr Gruden

His dad said he wanted to announce early to help that team out with recruiting. That should help with some of our first world problems.

NEW YORK -- Nashville Predators defenseman Shea Weber has been fined $2,500, the maximum allowed under the Collective Bargaining Agreement, for delivering a blow to the head of Detroit forward Henrik Zetterberg in Game 1 of the teams' Western Conference Quarterfinal series in Nashville on Wednesday, April 11, the National Hockey League's Department of Player Safety announced today.



The incident occurred at 20:00 of the third period. Weber was assessed a minor penalty for roughing.



"We felt this was a reckless and reactionary play on which Weber threw a glancing punch and then shoved Zetterberg's head into the glass," said NHL Senior Vice President of Player Safety and Hockey Operations Brendan Shanahan. "We reached out to Detroit following the game and were informed that Zetterberg did not suffer an apparent injury and should be in the lineup for Game 2. 



"This play and the fine that addressed it will be significant factors in assessing any incidents involving Shea Weber throughout the remainder of the playoffs."



The fine money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.

Take home notes
-maximum fine
-if a second incedent occurs weber will get suspended
-Z is good to go

Weber claimed Z hit him in he head first, I never saw that part but i did see the punch and then the grab and slam into the boards. I dont understand the reasoning at the end of a game that you just won, Hopefully this gives the wings a little spark, They arent looking so hot as of late and need a little boost to make any kind of push this year imo.

Always known Michigan is one of the best colleges out there, but it is nice to get some extra told you so from some guy with a book. Got one degree in Civil Engineering and workin on a second in Mechanical, but i still cant get a job -.-

......Anybody on here lookin for an intern this summer......

>_>

<_<

At least this one doesnt come complete with a FUPA...

So like..... Just read this whole thread reading PATERNO, instead of PATRINO....

I knew none of this made any sence, and evidently im more dislexic than i origonally thought..

Herp Derp

Man I love Coach Mattison. I love hearing the mantra of it doesnt matter what you have done in the past, you have to work hard now, put in the effort now or it doesnt mean anything. Michigan is going to have some damn good football teams for a long time. Why? because of coaches like Mattison, and because this is Michigan, Fergodsakes

Epic News. Dreaming of the potential Joe/Su combo... better go find some fresh pants.

Saw that guy too, made me laugh. 

not too terribly much to go on but it looked like a solid practive after 1 week.

Prayers for the Hoke's. My grandfather recently died from lung related issues. As tragic as it is to lose them, Its good to know the second to second struggle to breath is over. Rest easy sir.

Really love these updates, Thanks for letting us in on some of your insider info.

Also, excited about the Isaac news, wont need to worry about wither smith or Isaac would work better, got em both!
