Apple products? I never used them previously…but in the last six months I got my chance with an odd work assignment. Bosses told me to go buy about $10,000 of Apple products (Mac Air, iPhone, iPods, iTouch…) and use them then take them apart and write up reports on design and assembly.
So after playing with them for a couple weekends I have to admit, Apple makes some pretty cool products.
The worst part of the assignment was my having to disassemble (destroy) $10K of all those BRAND NEW great toys from Apple. My wife also fell in love with them also so was sad to see them later as a bag of dissassembled parts.
I’m hooked on iTunes now. That is really cool software. But I’m using it on my Dell windows laptop, so I’m wishing for an iPHone or iTouch.
Now would I use a Mac laptop for work?
Sure if I did graphics design for a living. I don’t.
I run CPU-intensive engineering software. I have a dual-CPU Dell laptop that is way faster than any laptop Apple offers.
