We're in the microsoft forum. Honestly, most people seem hung up on the expensive hardware (ignoring that apple laptops actually hold a decent resale value) and are ignoring the actual operating system that makes macs a good purchase. I get it, most people here won't buy a mac because it's a ripoff hardware wise and they are savvy enough to know you can get more elsewhere. If Apple was Nintendo people here would be cheerleading them for making such a healty profit on each computer sold. Oh noes, I guess apple isn't allowed to make a decent profit on their hardware. |
Nintendo makes a profit on their hardware, but not a killing, and nothing above the other competitors who make money on their hardware (oh wait... there are none). In the PC world, all the other hardware manufacturers make a profit, while Apple tries to make a much larger profit on near identical hardware. I'd only complain about Nintendo making a profit on hardware if someone came out with an equal product and sold it for less, but Nintendo doesn't have a history of overcharging for their products.
