    According to Wikipedia the last revision was around 1946. Not many drastic changes, but still.

    I kinda like Hangul. It's one of the, if not, the easiest non-roman alphabet. Maybe Russian is even easier, but I haven't tried to learn that yet and it has more symbols. (This is just the alphabet, not the language itself).
    Compared to Thai, Arabic or Tamil at least

    I am anti-apple, I'm not being anti-apple.

    I'm saying for more money you should get more product, you don't, you get the same product with an apple logo.

    Ely, you're an artsy fartsy type, any cool ideas for a leaving party "poster"? (A4)

    Thai and Tamil are very artsy calligraphic, Arabic just looks like scribbled handwriting someone threw out in a rush

    Because that's consumerism, which is riddled throughout our society? You don't buy these things for the product, you buy them for the long established branding and logo. It's like buying a shirt from Hugo Boss, whereas you could probably get the same thing from Primark.

    It's all about the money money money!

    Seriously though, becoming vocal about it just seems petty to me. If you don't like it, ignore it and move along. Another person using their overpriced items will have no lasting effect on you.

    I'm happy using my Apple products too. They've worked thus far for me, and I've not had an issue with them. Only issue is when I'm a clumsy fucker.

    This coming from the guy who'd laugh and take the piss out of people for wearing the clothes they'd like to wear, even if they looked to your mind stupid?

    Pot kettle much?

    Rember this ad?

    This is how they used to be, or appeared to be. Its obviously very anti-control and making refference to 1984.

    now look where they are patent trolling and very very secretive and controlling .
    that and no gamer is going to buy a mac.

    I dont want to start a fan boy debate im just saying this is part of the reason I don't buy apple products, I may deter people from getting a mac but I'm never hard about it.

    I make sure to by high quality cases for my stuff. I'm not very clumsy, but I have been known to drop a thing or two from time to time. I'd rather not break an expensive piece of tech when a $20 cover will keep that from happening.

    Might just be the people I know, but everyone I know irl who has an Android has had to get it replaced every year to two years either for software issues because the new updates broke something with their phone, or because their phones physically break.

    That is not an actual fact. It might be a fact that gamers in general are less likely to buy macs, but then you'd have to divide it up by types of gamers because even that isn't really true. There are definitely gamers out there who own macs.

    유영 hooray for circles

    I'm not really happy with the iPad we have here. Biggest gripe is the lack of a back button, which all android devices I've used so far do have. Other problem is that Apple locked it down a bit too much. We have a nice network in our home and every device is connected to it. Every laptop, pc and android phone was very easily connected in no time, but for the iPad we had to use a guide to do that one simple task :/
