You'd honestly spend $1,000 more dollars than what the computer is actually worth for the appearance?

Do none of you find that ridiculous?

OS and keyboard. i have found very few laptops with similar keyboards.

Don't even get me started on OSX, it's such a horrible OS to work with if you know anything about computers.

And there is nothing special about apple keyboards, nothing at all. And even if both of those are important to you, it's not, nor could it ever be worth $1000, or even $100.

I love them, actually. Actual headphones are always ugly as hell, and I hate earbuds. I can actually have Beats on in public and not get laughed at.

Its funny, because I was just about to post pictures of sennheiser headphones, to show how ridiculously ugly they are.

You did it for me though, so... Thanks? I guess...

I use Mac OSX, windows7, windows8, and ubuntu.

The order i prefer OSs Mac Os > Ubuntu > Windows 7

Windows 8 is unusable garbage.

Actually OS X is a very stable and easy to use OS. If you know about computers, you know how to use OS X. It's that simple. It's ergonomic, smooth, and functional. Really more than you can say about windows.
Those are all just meaningless buzzwords, none of those hold any real argument. There are infinitely more programs compatible with Windows OS's, simply because nobody bothers to make programs for OSX. There aren't anymore problems on Windows than there would be on OSX, every operating system has issues, but nothing that would appear in everyday use.

Expect those "buzzwords" makes your entire assertions moot.
But they don't. They don't mean anything.

Also, if you lived in the year 2012, you'd realize major programmers offer content for both windows and OS X. Yeah, windows has more content for it, but OS X still has a significant amount of third party programs available for it. You just contradicted yourself. More content are more third party programs. There's so many more worthwhile programs on Windows than OSX.

Let me ask you this....

Let's say that you were given the choice to buy one of two cars for free.

The first car is pretty crappy looking on the outside and isn't flashy at all. However, on the inside, it looks like this. This car also contains a 500 HP 4.3L V-8 superturbo charged racing engine with fuel injection and F1-grade transmission. This car can smoke the competition like there's no tomorrow, and the engine can scream like a banshee. The sound system is the best in the world and it can make your music sound like you are in the studio/stage with the band. At will, the bass on the system has the ability to blow the glass off of neighboring cars. Bottom line is it's an awesome car to drive.

The second car looks like this. Or you can replace this picture with your favorite-looking car. Doesn't matter. However, this car contains an interior like this. The engine is a 1L V-2 that can go from 0 to 60 in 20 seconds. Steering is manual and the transmission is a 60 year old manual that regularly slips.

Now tell me, which car would you choose?

The first one with the nice interior, because for me, the interior of a car matters more than the exterior.

Couldnt care less about the rest of the benefits though, because all I would use a car for is to cruise around and go to where I need to go. I don't race.

Then why do you choose differently with headphones?

I won't bother arguing with you since you obviously don't know anything about audio or fashion.


Since you seems to be missing the point REALLY hard for some reason, I'll just be blunt.


I couldn't care less about actual audio. Can I hear the music? Awesome. I'm not a picky audiophile.

But if you can get something with much greater quality for the same price, why go for the worse alternative?

Because the internals in the Beats are good enough for me. It does what I want. It's how it looks that matters most to me.

Would you rather pay $1 for a t-shirt thats a weird dingy color, or $3 for a nice slim-fit clean t-shirt?

They both do the same thing, but one is three times the price.

Because the worse alternative in this case, would be the headphones that look like two nokia cellphones strapped together.

I was talking specifically about the quality. In this case, any headphones would overcome Beats when it comes to quality. Beats are notorious for being extremely overpriced while offering very little. You could have gotten magnificent headphones for $100, but instead you went with the worse alternative. A lot of people think Beats look hideous, by the way.

Maybe where you live, which doesn't matter to me.

I have beats because I like the way they look AND with full understanding that I can get better "quality" headphones for half the price. The truth is, I don't care one single bit.

When talking about headphones, this is so incorrect I can't even describe it. But whatever it doesn't really matter. We all have different values. I'm not gonna get butt hurt over you having different values than me lol.

your paying more money than necessary / paying for the brand name

Macs are over ratted facebook machines that break to easily and don't have easily interchanged parts. They even went over to using Intel instead of power processors like they used to. Its like protesting at an anti gun rally while holding a gun. MAC's are a joke.
