I have never bought anything made by Apple.

Now, for a short period of time, I had an Apple IIe that a buddy gave me back in '97. I played Oregon Trail on it.

Did you contact Apple about it and ask them to fix it?

^I took it to the Apple store couple times, and they never figured out the fix permanently. It's always got fixed for a month or so and then broke again.

iPhone
iPod Nano 4G
iPhone 4

Mac G4 I got from an old job and refurb'd that sits completely unused in my living room




I love their mobile devices, but I couldn't give a shit less about OSX based products. If I want to dick around with OSX I just open a Virtual Machine. Really no point in it for me, though. Every single thing you do on Mac can be done on a Windows or Linux machine, and for me the workflow is easier because I don't have to go searching for the right way to do it. There is not one thing that makes it worthwhile to me.

We'll allow that since Oregon Trail is awesome.

Had a first generation iPod Mini, but that's it.

If I find myself wanting a tablet I'd buy an iPad, but whenever I use my dads it's cool for like the first 10 minutes but then I find myself being annoyed at having to hold it and the lack of a physical keyboard. Plus I have a Kindle for reading.

I've had probably a dozen ipods. Pretty much every nano version they've had and two big classics (now have a 160GB classic).

And one MacBook that has been going strong on three years. IMO, it's probably operating at about 80-85% of how it was operating when I first bought it. Last few laptops were either completely crapped out, or considerably less than 50% as useful three years later.

I do have an Android phone rather than an iphone. Just not a big fan.

My iPod touch craps out on wi-fi all the time.

Also, it randomly skips like a shitty CD player would.

Fuck that noise.

My grandparents gave me an ipod nano for Christmas a few years ago, but other than that I'm Apple-free.

However, I'm toying with the idea of getting an iphone...

the only Apple product I would consider getting right now is the Iphone, but my carrier doesn't have it.

I have Sprint. I would switch to Verizon, except for the fact that I'm paying at least half of everybody else right now for my cell phone plan.

1 x iPad
1 x iMac
2 x ATV1
1 x ATV2
1 x iPod Shuffle
1 x 3Gs iPhone

Kinda wish I had all that money back now.

If you don't mind the shit battery life. I have the Thunderbolt and while it's not a deal breaker, HTC could definitely at least try to keep up with the competition in terms of battery size instead of cramming the smallest battery possible in there.

this is the stuff I could gather without unplugging routers and such. I also am missing a few iPhones because they are at work, along with my keyboard and mouse. I pay my bills using iDevices so I have no problem being a fanboy.
