Video Daily: Apple is 'brand of the decade'

article published on 15 December, 2009

Note: Starting this week, we at AfterDawn are introducing a Video Daily segment relevant to the tech world and giving our users something a little "different."

I have noticed every apple owner i've seen usually wears name brand clothing. Coincidence, i think not.
more like fighting dumb consumers who think more money for less product is a good thing....

So I guess I'm dumb. I drive a Camaro and by your way of thinking I should feel anybody who doesn't drive a Camaro is dumb. I also eat meat and by your way of thinking I should think anybody who doesn't eat meat is dumb. The freedom to choose is a great thing. So long as Zippy agrees with it.
And how the hell do you figure it's less product? Did you own one or try one for more than 10 Minutes? I'm going to guess that you didn't. Less by your standards doesn't mean anything. I've tried most of these so called iPhone killers and all of them that I tried are inferior. And every time I turn on my iPod it works flawlessly. Whats the problem? I've had plenty of cheap MP3 players and ALL of them were junk. Is there something out there better than the iPod? Probably but I don't care. My iPod is working fine. I can't believe how dumb that makes me.
If you want to be cheap about everything you buy so be it but that doesn't make me dumb for buying the expensive product.
I prefer to go with the flow. There is a lot more support and it makes things easier to sort out.

I don't like Mac.
I wear Walmart clothing except for the NASCAR t-shirts. Does that sound like Name Brand? Sounds more RedNeck to me. You shouldn't assume.

Well people are dumb and don;t get me started on humanity as a whole....but specifically like most you don;t care about over all qaulity or the cost you pay for it like all the consoletards drinking the dumbed down koolaid thinking games are getting better when for the most part gameing and films are getting worse, perhaps its due to higher highs lower lows since the highs are rare the lows become standard and no one seems to care...then again one(me my bastard ilk) could just be whiny bastard complaining and bitching about hims little persepction of how the sky is falling.... well it is....its just already passed the non believers since they are noming in bliss on cloud nine in space.......wut? didn;t you know ignorance is bliss ...almost as bad as my poo gas!! :P

/shrug...I would like to thank Apple for making really great user interfaces. It's caused a lot of other companies to REALLY improve their products. Brand of the decade? No.

That being said...I won't own an Apple computer because I can't game on it. I doubt I'll own an iPhone or iPod because I can get something that does everything I'd want either of those two devices to do at probably 1/2 to 3/4 the cost with none of the strings Apple devices always have attached.
