so, i recently upgraded my HD in my macbookpro. I went to the apple store and actually paid for leopard (stoopid) after installing i realized that leopard doesn't come with garageband anymore! you dont' even get any of the useless other apps like iphoto and all the other i apps. rediculous.

Rule N1:
Never buy anything 1st generation from Apple.Rule N2:
Never Buy their OS Upgrade (unless your current one is giving you problems)Rule N3:
You can buy legit Applecare (new in box) on ebay for less than 1/2 the price you get it from Apple.* I don't make the rules.
- do explain more about this apple care you speak ofMSTRPLN

apple will learn, people are not going to keep buying new products because it's new and now with a slowing economy I bet they will even lose more market share. Like they had any to begin with.

^ educate yourself before you speak fool.
Even Apple Inc. is beginning to suffer in this year's dismal holiday season, and worries are mounting the recession will weigh on its business next year.
Apple, which has outpaced the overall personal computer market this year despite its strategy of eschewing discounts, showed its first signs of weakness in November.

Meeklo, that's why i didn't buy a macbookpro with leopard on it!
i just think it's stupid that they took the other apps out of the packaged OS. I think there's probably tons of people like me that saw the macbookpro come out and think i'm not going to buy that piece of shit. why would i upgrade to a machine that's barely faster, has the same amount of hd space, crappy glossy screen and less ports when i can buy a better HD and install it myself.
epete22 - your exactly right, this is the kind of shit that pisses people off.

apple is more worried about getting an iphone or ipod in every walmart shoppers hands than designing good computers
